I used this frame for Corbell's Sleeping dog to get the unredacted data :

There are other unredacted clips in the documentary that could give some info for other released videos.

I find the below video quite interesting.
https://www.dvidshub.net/video/1007735/dow-uap-pr061-spherical-uap-callsign-2021-04-12-vid-0

At around the 3:57 mark, the object clearly slows down, moves from a higher level to a lower level and then turns right.
I initially thought this could be a balloon caught in a wind current but I cannot understand how it would slow and then do a 90 degree turn so abruptly into a cove.

In the second vid (https://www.dvidshub.net/video/1007735/dow-uap-pr061-spherical-uap-callsign-2021-04-12-vid-0), the small whitish feature (not sure we can say it's spherical) is either casting a shadow or perhaps something else is going on.

From approx. 3:55 to 3:57 a similarly small but dark moving feature is visible; arrowed below to (hopefully) help you guys find what I mean.
-I've left these as thumbnails so they don't take up too much space "on the page", I hope this is OK- please click to enlarge if interested.

My impression is that the feature appears to start at one small dark landscape feature, and becomes indistinct just after crossing another (arrowed in 4th pic) and passing into the bluey-grey shadow of the valleys.



Almost immediately after (3:57 - 4:00) a second small dark feature is visible on the opposite side of the valley. The light UAP and this dark feature seem to be closing until the last fraction of a second, when perhaps the white UAP changes course from roughly south-easterly to south or southwest: unfortunately the top centre redacted area then obscures both moving features.

The operator's display wouldn't have had redaction rectangles of course, but it seems that at this point or very shortly after the UAP and dark feature are no longer visible.



Are the dark features shadows of the "UAP"? I think so, but can't shake the impression that at the last moment the light feature tries to avoid the dark one.
Maybe birds?

(At times, the UAP (whitish feature) sems to leave a faint trail, as does the dark feature around 3:59.

Is this a sensor/ processing artefact?)

I see it first, very faintly and moving across a series of tightly packed terrain features, at 3:48. It's very hard to get a frame with it because it basically looks like noise or terrain in a static image until a few seconds later when the ground is smoother.

The trails are probably artifacts, all of the HUD elements are leaving trails in the image.

I initially thought this could be a balloon caught in a wind current but I cannot understand how it would slow and then do a 90 degree turn so abruptly into a cove.

To me, this is much like what we've been discussing in the wind farm thread: https://www.metabunk.org/threads/pr...d-farm-dot-changing-apparent-direction.14873/

It's not that the object turns, the drone filming does. At least intuitively, this also seems to match the camera's apparent movement over the ground at that time.
