Hey, I've worked in aviation for 16 years, and I can tell you that's probably an airplane! (don't ask me which one though)

Wouldn't such a small target get filtered out by the system on a civilian radar though? I visited out local ATC once, and they told us that they automatically filter out anything under a certain size or speed, otherwise they'd be doing speed checks on the nearby motorway. Also there's Mode-S...

Mick and the mods, can we please have a "groan" or "facepalm" reaction emoji?

Thank you for looking that up. That would have ben too easy otherwise, if we could have obtained a copy of the log of that day and see if a balloon or something similar is listed. Supposing the object is real.

Does anybody know if the contents of a FOD bin on a ramp have to be logged at the end of the day, or are they just thrown out?

If you don't count air as stuff... If the earth is hollow, but there's still some lava, the air would heat up and blow up the Earth like a balloon.

Unfortunately I live in a mostly fudge-less part of the world, so I have sadly been denied this experience :(

Well I only posted the video for the snark factor, but if you guys are interested in going into this, and in order not to hijack this thread too much, maybe the mods could branch this off into its own thread?

That's what I would think. Unless the Earth is hollow, which is a whole other conspiracy theory.

Or maybe they're afraid of falling off the edge? I've always wondered why they don't just hire a ship and go in a straight line in whatever direction has empty ocean ahead and see what happens? On the other hand, I've recently seen or heard somebody say that if the Earth was flat, there's be a...

Dave Mc Keegan has started packing. I really wonder if that's going to convince the die-hard flat-earthers. Just the fact that some of them declined a free(!) trip says a lot. They'll probably claim it's CGI or something.

I hope it's OK to post a long video here? If you're having one of these days and need some good snark, this is one of the best videos I've watched recently: Miniminuteman on the Expanding Earth theory

Hot-air balloons too? ;)

Here's Jason Colavito's summary: https://www.jasoncolavito.com/blog/boring-ufo-hearing-featured-ufo-advocates-saying-nothing-of-substance The hearing had no dramatic revelations and no disclosure of aliens, but it did feature people claiming not to have firsthand knowledge, lots of secondhand...

Yes! Good point. They're smart little bastards. If they didn't starve and die after procreating, who knows what they might evolve into? If he assumes that there's something along the lines of Abyss-type creatures down there, who might have evolved there, or come here before we evolved, maybe...

Just out of curiosity, do whales count as non-human intelligence in our oceans? (sorry)

Yeah, actually, in the video I see the little points that I thought were little bits of metal in the still pic are actually reflections too. Another thing it reminded me of was a knob for a radiator, it would match the colour and shape. Size is a bit more difficult. Would it be that shiny...

It does look a lot like the very shiny grip of a small furled umbrella, I think one can see the little metal points on the ends of the spokes? Or am I just telling myself that to reinforce my conclusion? That would be an object that one could reasonably expect to be present in a car as well.

Comb jellies can do bioluminescence, but in this case, it's cilia that move and refract light. Reference: https://www.montereybayaquarium.org/animals/animals-a-to-z/comb-jelly

Yeah, I know that :) Funnily enough, I work in aviation, so I have a lot of contact with pilots, and know how absurd that assumption is ;)
