Like.
Well it's a bit more complicated than "that's a high-hat". The photo has a pretty good provenance. It's not like a Billy Meier photo that somebody went out and hoaxed, then show up with it. This photo originated in an aerial survey program run... -

It strikes me that the problem with this approach of looking for more sky survey-like material shot in the same way with similar technology at the same time is that the analysis is also likely to repeat any flaws in the original papers. That is... -
John J. replied to the thread Travis Walton case: Crew boss confesses hoax.The hypothesis that aircraft might have been responsible for the flying "V" is not dependent on Tim Printy's proposed solution (that the Snowbirds aerobatics team was responsible), it just requires the presence of aircraft that might have flown... -

I'm not seeing much newly-visible in the new scan -- other than, being a bit less contrast-y, it looks more like a bubble or drop of water or such. Just quoting the above in hopes that the documentarians were aware of it, and looked at it as...

purpleivan replied to the thread Yukon Alaska Hwy Jan 20 2025 Case – Raw Dashcam Timestamp Jump + 21:51 Orb Photo (Higher Res).After @YukonJohnCan's post, drawing attention to the chapter markings, I took another look at the video, this time skipping through it to view any chapter named "ORB". As I thought, what is being reported as orbs, are the small dots and...

Agree.
I guess the reasoning would be a non-rotating object with a reflective surface only visible in one direction would either be non-transient or not visible depending on its orientation. Why alien designers build rotating satellites with one highly... -
DDarkLight replied to the thread 1971 Lake Cote / Lago de Cote UFO Aerial Photo.The "thickness" is just the shadow on the edge of the cymbal and the brighter area is the lower half of the set. You can even see the center post and what looks to be some highlights relflecting off of the stand on the other side behind it and...

DDarkLight replied to the thread 1971 Lake Cote / Lago de Cote UFO Aerial Photo.Probably just a double exposure during the developing process. It would be amazing that the only frame captured of a flying saucer just happened to look exactly like a set of high hat cymbals. On the other hand, maybe the aliens saw a set of...

Trailblazer replied to the thread 1971 Lake Cote / Lago de Cote UFO Aerial Photo.The object (if it is an object) looks like it has some thickness to it, not like a cymbal. The lower part appears to show a near vertical edge, rather than tapering to a point like the cross section of a cymbal. Of course, that could be an... -

JMartJr replied to the thread 1971 Lake Cote / Lago de Cote UFO Aerial Photo.Certainly a strong resemblance -- but I have a hard time envisioning how one could wind up there to be photographed! :) -

I could be wrong, but as far as I can tell the original POSS-1 plates still exist, along with first-generation copies. According to Caltech's archive page showing they retain photographic prints from POSS-1: "The original glass plates are stored...

Thanks, I'd totally missed that down in the video description. On the biggest screen I have, I don't see any of the orbs but I did notice one thing -- they/it tends to be in the same place every time, according to the red arrow. That suggests a... -
