    I did some preliminary work on simulating flocks of birds, but I've not had time to experiment with it much https://local.metabunk.org/sitrec/?custom=99999999/brid%20test/20260921_212742_fccb447d92e0241fcefa9e5a89d5ceaf.js (wrong island there)

    And the correct one, thanks. That mislabeled image threw me. https://www.metabunk.org/sitrec/?custom=1/PR135%20Qaruh%20Island/20260919_045750_07d4c5e591ddd35f0b8a41827e3507f4.js

    This particular video is a what looks like a group of six birds. Ambiguous enough apparently that AARO could not just say it's birds, and so it's a fleet of UAP for the media. I think I need to add flocks of birds to Sitrec.

    Kubbar Island is a tourist spot off Kuwait. This appears to be it at high tide. https://www.metabunk.org/sitrec/?custom=1/PR135 Kubbar Island and Birds/20260918_231943_3ed3c7a12de9b7d050e07ae713450758.js

    DOW-UAP-D109 & DOW-UAP-PR140/141: Apparent Sharp Turn.

    ACCORDING TO THE [REDACTED], THE UAPs WERE TRAVELLING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS BETWEEN 80-180 MPH. WE WERE UNABLE TO DETERMINE ALTITUDE. THE SIZE OF THE UAPs WERE APPROXIMATELY 1-2 METERS. Even if this is simply their best visual estimate in the moment, it's hardly reliable. As noted already, speed...

    DOW-UAP-D109 & DOW-UAP-PR140/141: Apparent Sharp Turn.

    A big issue with these videos is the sensor burn in noise creating an illusion of motion as it's highter contrast than the background. Stabilizing on one of the objects helps see it's apparent motion across the ocean, consistent with mostly parallax, and some bird-like wandering. The motion...

    Yes. Embedding content also embeds their code. Like when you have an embedded YouTube video.

    Unfortunately, there's not a lot I can do if it's standard XF behavior.

    Doesn't it translate if you go to Reddit?

    Debunked: 9/11 impact footage was faked, shows 'layering' error.

    You can use Sitrec's "Add Building". Right click on the ground, then move the handles to line it up. Dragging just outside a corner witll rotate. Approximate: https://www.metabunk.org/sitrec/?custom=1/WTC impact video/20260915_190859_c956a8f49e1e499849cb4062839c6756.js And with the point...

    There are several reports from the nearby Fargo area. Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/fargo/comments/1wgu57s/meteorspace_junk/ Anyone else see that thing break up overhead around 2:40AM? At first I thought it was just a crazy long airliner coming into land but then I saw the trailing portion...

    It looks like space junk. A rocket re-entry and its breakup in the atmosphere.

    Debunked: 9/11 impact footage was faked, shows 'layering' error.

    With Sitrec, we can now use the Camera /"Fit Camera to Points" to nail down a camera location if there's sufficient perspective in the shot. This might be useful for some old cases like this.
