A pillar/prism shaped pitch black object with protrusions seen from the plane.

The sighting I am reporting happened on 19th August 2021 (Thursday). Time was around 6. 07 – 6. 10/11 am approx and the length of the observation could be around 3 – 4 mins. I was actually sitting in the plane - left side by a window. It was flight KL1350 from Prague to Amsterdam – regular route (the number of the flight could be different in 2021, the route is still being operated in 2022).

My sighting started right away after we finished sharp ascend from the Václav Havel aiport above Prague and did turn to flight more northwestern direction. I remember checking flight route after incident at that time, but unfortunately I did not save any printscreens, but the turn is actually always done above nature protected area CHKO Křivoklátsko.

Concretely plane flights over or very near village Bratronice and then continues to slightly turn near dam Klíčava. I also noticed close by to Bratronice is ex rocket military base Bratronice (from information I did found, it is now used by people who like post apo). Closest airport would be the one marked as LKKL.

We were not so hight yet around 1700 to 2000 meters at first, we were keep ascending, but slowly so by the end of observation we could above 3000 meters high. Because it was morning most people were actually trying to sleep. I had a good view to southwestern direction after this turn right after first ascend. The sunrise happened just minutes ago (found out it was 5. 58 am) before we took off so the sky was still red, pink and orange, but more light blue to western direction to the right of my window.

That is when I noticed something black just above the clouds layer extremely far away to the very right of my window view. To my eyes it was just something black, I thought perhaps another airplane. But I took my pair of binoculars – 20x50 with me on my vacation as I intended to watch some birds there as well.

I had it in small backpack I did not put into the locker over my head so I could reach it, the pair was under the seat in front of me. I quickly zoomed to see into far distance clearly and made sure I see one image with both eyes. Then I froze.

I couldn’t believe what I am actually seeing. The first impression was what is even that?!!. There was vertically placed solid pitch black object which resembled to me some sort of a black pillar but with sharp squared edges it seemed - prism. When I first saw it, it was under for me so could see at least upper part which was sharply squared shaped. This object itself looked enormous. I think if I would imagine it in a horizontal position it would be close to length of the fuselage of the plane I was in.

But what was protruding from it made me feel even more astonished. There were some kind of protrusions which I can only compare to tentacles of squid. These were moving in similar fashion to tentacles or those appendages of some bacteria if you look under microscope. Some of them were thinner some of them very thick. I was not able to count how many exactly are there, but they was some space in the air between them so it wasn’t countless number.

Sometimes they interwined or crossed and then went back to sort of moving in the style mentioned before and hanging under the pillar/prism. Couple times the pillar/prism rectracted them inside into itself and they became invisible. They were retracted gradually, it wasn’t like they disappeared.
They looked attached to the pillar/prism. The pillar/prism was hovering most of the time, it slightly went up not being right above the cloud layer anymore so the view for me was now 0° in the horizont, then it was moving rapidly to right and left and opposite while the „tentacles“ got risen up (check the sketch).

Whole this object was completely black, but reflecting sun light. After couple minutes it started moving forward rapidly and keep ascending. It was getting smaller how the distance between me and it was becoming greater. At the end of the observation the angle could be °15 in the horizont. The pillar/prism never changed its shape and stayed in a vertical position it was very clear I am seeing a solid object.

It disappeared in the distance at very far right side. There were no windows, holes on it. I didn’t see any marking of any other color. There was no sound but that could be because of the distance and the noise the plane was making. Cannot say if there was any weird odor or interference with electrical devices as this was very far away.

I didn’t take any picture nor video of it. I looked through my phone quickly but couldn’t even see it at all. I didn’t allert any other people in the plane. I logically assumed some people could start to panic or behave unpredictably and the last thing I wanted was a cancelled flight returning to Prague and police coming for me. I have no idea if anyone else noticed, but I don’t think chance of anyone else being here and having a pair of binoculars with them is high and with naked eyes it wasn’t discernable at all.

I talked about it only with couple of my friends. Some suggested unusually formed jet contrails but I did check pictures and videos of such phenomenon and can say they look like made from smoke which is something completely different from what I saw. Not even those protrusions were smoke like, they were totally black and with reflection of sun and moving more resembled liquid substance than smoke. Even the way these contrails move is different.
