January 1 and 2, 2025, Sierra Vista, Arizona.
Looking west towards the Huachuca Mountains.
Video taken 1/2/2025, 6:34 p.m. MST.
Photos taken 1/1/2025. 6:53 p.m. MST.
Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP), points of light, are visible.
The UAP make subtle zig-zag patterns or "stairstep" patterns. This is clear
when stepped through and examined frame by frame.
There are photographs that captured the "zig-zag" patterns in 2-second exposures.
What kind of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), drone, aircraft, or satellite can
make this zig-zag pattern, at this speed?
Not conventional aircraft.
Not UAVs (or “drones”).
Not satellites. Not meteors.
Not rocket boosters. Not space junk.
Not solid metal structures.
Therefore, UAP.
Could they be plasma UAP?
If you know, or have any ideas, please comment, below.
Perhaps a "plasma craft" could make this pattern? Why would any craft or object follow such a zig-zag pattern?
Hypothesis: Plasma craft follow helical magnetic field lines.

00:10 Captions:
Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) make zig-zag patterns,
captured in 2-second photograph exposures and video.
The UAP have no nav lights, position lights, or beacons, and appear to
be self-illuminated. They fly at high speed.
The UAP appear from behind the mountain as a point of light. The
estimated distance (to the objects) is 30 miles.

03:18 UAP bottom center, flying upwards at 80° angle, makes a subtle
zig-zag pattern (looks like "shaking"). Point of light. Flies past two
conventional aircraft (probably UAVs).
Simultaneously, a second UAP is visible in the background, flying level,
right-to-left. Point of light. (Very dim, farther away, flying lower.)
