PR-48 INDOPACO, 2024 (Wind Farm + Dot Changing Apparent Direction)

[ThomasH]

I've realigned the camera with the bigger windmills and it's actually much better now. But I still only use the bit where the drone is stable.

I've found a sweet spot where the white dot can stand perfectly still, and still follow the crazy fast interdimensional spaceship in the video
....it can be anything and everywhere. If it's closer to the camera it just has to fly a bit in one direction to match, if it's closer to the turbines it has to fly/drift the other way. It can fly a bit up, towards the camera and to the side, we will never know.

I will try to make a video, maybe tomorrow, I'm tired of this now

Nice video. What would the altitude of the drone have to be? The curvature of the earth from that distance is about 1.3 km, but we are looking down at the wind farm at an acute angle in that view so the camera is a lot higher. If indeed the object is a bird, different birds generally travel at different altitudes, so that might help determine its identity and its distance from the camera, which gives its speed.

Thanks. 6.5 km

I don't have the curvature in the equation, so it could have been a bit higher

Small angles (which are wonderfully convenient in this particular case) says:
- It's about 1 degree away (40000 km / 360=111 km), so it would need to rise another 1 degree to get the same vista.
- At 114 km, 1 degree is 2km.

7.78 km If I place it all on a 12756 km ball
I don't think it will change the turbine arrangement much.

The DoW seems to have released another video of the object

DOW-UAP-PR058, "[CALLSIGN] (Mission) UAP"

I wanna know who thought this would be useful. This feels like they're just emphasizing a video that was popular in release 1.

The string is intermittently visible visible below the balloon from around 3:15 through 5:46.

It get's lost in the noise some of the time, but always reappears in the same spot, directly below the balloon, extending about the same length. It never show up above the balloon, or off to the sides, as diffraction spikes or something might be expected to do. It is more visible in the moving image than in a still, this still captures it, though.

Yeah i'm going for the balloon explanation too. I thought it could have been a chinese drone or something but I don't think it is

 

[Harabeck]

What kind of string would be visible at this distance? Do we have examples of IR footage showing dangling lines from balloons?

One possibility would be a relatively wide ribbon.

Which would also account for how it is more visible at some times than others, if the balloon is rotating ans so the ribbon is sometimes seen more edge-on.

It is undeniably there, whatever it is. If there is an alternative explanation that William of Occam would accept, I can't think of it. But we can crowd source brainstorm that here pretty effectively, based on past experience! ^_^

From the video description on the website:

A user uploaded this video to a classified network in June 2024.

Are any of these releases designed to be "useful"? To whom, and for what purpose? I think it's fair to assume that those deemed to be "the best evidence" of UFOs are already known to the public (since people who take a video of something interesting are usually eager to tell/sell their story) and that what remains are the dregs of the barrel. They're being released because a couple of people in Congress would like to be noticed and are demanding them, that's all. They are insufficient to either prove or disprove anything; they're just stuff that does not have an official identification yet, although people in Metabunk have come up with some fairly convincing conclusions.

Another would be a cluster of ribbons/strings...

I do wonder how the people in Congress knew to request these particular videos??? (End Sarcasm)
Does seem that people have been "priming the pump" to make sure there would be things to look at.
True Believers on the lookout for things

The objects in this video are obviously birds. When following one "mysterious orb" it flies past multiple identical white dots that are not moving so fast. Either there are a lot of aliens flying around or the fast things and the slower things are the same things, birds.

Interesting how the clouds are flowing through the frame constantly from right to left, until right when the "UFO" zips out of frame, when they slow right down. Almost as if the camera is following the UFO, then stops doing that so the UFO exits the right of the screen.

This is all consistent with the object flying along at a constant rate of speed (or a constant apparent speed produced by a moving camera and parallax for an essentially stationary object like a balloon). There is no observable evidence of acceleration in either case, instantaneous or otherwise!

Yet somebody in DoD is releasing this as an object flying in an anomalous fashion. This raises some ominous and unavoidable questions about the competence of some number of folks at DoD -- hopefully the number is small, and limited to either folks who Want To Believe or who Want To Mollify Congressional Members Who Want To Believe.

In my view, it's completely self-serving for all of those involved.
