Fair enough. I wonder though if it is significant that the people who had the best view -- with telescope, say -- saw planes, not a single object? Or is my memory of that part of this case in error?

The problem is were' dealing with the 2nd hand accounts of an unreliable source. @Charlie Wiser has shared accounts of Rogers making claims of this overly large floating UFO. According to his daughter, he confessed to faking this UFO. So, the...

@YukonJohnCan -- Could you maybe provide a link to the times in the video where the object is most clearly visible? I believe I saw a drawing of is sort of propeller-looking thing, but now cannot even find that! (Lot of video here for the...

Yes, exactly as I said - you can pick out some reports to support planes, and I can pick out some reports to support a relatively slow-moving single object.

I agree the size of 1/3 mile is implausible. However, it's not at all implausible that it wasn't found. In fact, it may well have been found - but that doesn't mean anybody associated it with the Phoenix Lights.

I am a bit late to this discussion, but I would correct some things mentioned by "John J.". Those comments above were added in a "Discussions" section by another person and not me. Okay, you weren't to know that, but I would agree with the...

I think drones were rare then, and they were certainly unavailable to civilians at the time the lights were seen.

Some years ago, for one of my Building 7 videos, I did my own soda can experiment to see if I could actually observe effective freefall acceleration in a collapsing soda can. I filled a bucket with water while filming the can at 300 FPS. Then I...

Note that while this may confirm the story, it does not necessarily validate the Iranian video as we have nothing to compare it against.
