driving home, i saw a massive plane just hovering close to the ground. it was dead still once i saw it, and it stayed there for at least 10 seconds. it wasn’t until i turned my head away and back and saw the end of it turning away at a stop light.
from a perspective, my speed was around 40 mph.
super freaky, i thought it was a new piece of architect or a balloon, but it was not.

If I understand correctly, it’s for the same reason you see the sun move so rapidly at dawn and dusk, close to the horizon, but perceive it as almost stationary when it’s up high. A lack of concrete reference points to detect its movement relative to them.
