We may have to respectfully disagree there. As far as eyewitness testimony goes, his seems as good as any (in my view, that is not very good, as I have mentioned frequently in the past I put little value in unsupported eyewitness testimony) but...

Welcome to Metabunk! It's always good to discuss with people well versed in the facts of a case. The paper at https://www.researchgate.net/publication/362866103_Empirical_Analysis_of_the_Hugh_Gray_%27Nessie%27_Photograph lists Roland Watson...

Speculation, I'm afraid: It's long been said that the people who tell a tall tale eventually begin to believe it themselves. I think that must also be true of people who never tell the tale except in their own minds, to themselves: "I wish I had...

Rich Contry, who was on I-40 north of Prescott, wrote: "As the formation came towards me I stopped my car and got out with my binocs to check out what this was. As it came towards me, I saw 5 aircraft with there running lights (red and green) and...

Hi Silverado, welcome. The paper lists one author. It is common for academic/ research papers to have a discussion section. Unless it is clearly stated otherwise, the reader will be under the impression that the discussion section is written by...

There is no way that the first Phoenix Lights sighting was a hoax by Mike Rogers, or anyone else. First, it crossed almost the entire state of Arizona, by most accounts in less than an hour, suggesting a speed of about 400 mph. So Planes...

I find it hard to believe that a single huge structure such as described (1) existed at all, and (2) was deliberately flown over Phoenix, a huge, busy metropolitan area where even a largish kite would certainly be a traffic hazard if it came...

It reminds me of one of the few successful 'UAP' identifications I have ever made. Someone wrote in to the Fortean Times forum describing a 'vertical floating cylinder' seen over the Pennines from a plane; I knew what it was, because I'd seen too...

Well spotted! It seems that these apparitions are not subsuns per se, but lower tangent arcs, which appear in approximately the same place and do display some colour. https://atoptics.co.uk/blog/perfect-lower-tangent-arc-opod/ The bright white...

Just start a new one. You can organize your thoughts and evidence from Rogers various claims in a new opening post and then others can post about it. I agree, it keeps the discussion cleaner. You can also ask Mick to split this thread with the...
