Apocalyptic possibilities people toss around: if it’s not natural, human-made, or harmless, it must be… the return of Jesus, the work of Satan, a secret government project, the New World Order, a message from aliens, Project Blue Beam rehearsals, or a mind-control test by HAARP. 😉

Sky Trumpets 2016 to 2019 — FAQ

What are “sky trumpets” and “skyquakes”?

“Sky trumpets” is the popular name for long, horn-like drones and metallic groans reported in the air. In science reporting, sudden boom/rumble events—often without visible lightning—are called skyquakes. This page gathers 2020’s clearest clips.

Are these sounds natural or supernatural?

Many recordings line up with natural or human sources: atmospheric ducting, industrial resonance (rail/refinery), distant thunder, meteors, or earthquakes. Others remain unexplained—and that mystery keeps the phenomenon interesting.

Why did reports decrease between 2016 to 2019?

Probably because the end of the world didn’t bother people… Anymore…

How can I tell an industrial noise from a genuine sky event?

Note direction, duration, repetition, and weather. Record a minute of audio, jot the time, and check local industry/rail schedules and weather radar. Send details via our contact form for inclusion.

How do I report a new sound?

Use the report form with location, date/time, phone audio, and any video. We’ll review and add it here.
