Fresh questions: 1. Are contrails more noticeable near sunrise and sunset? a. Do people notice contrails more readily if they are closer to the visual horizon? b. Do people notice contrails more readily if they take on the color tints...

"do comments across social media show an increase in talk about chemtrails around the month of march" means you're expecting something special around the month of march "do you have data about social media mentions of the chemtrails topic by...

Catalog matching was done. That can be tested: three MNRAS 2022 datasets are published here: http://svocats.cab.inta-csic.es/vanish/ Select the list of vanishing objects in POSS I red images (5,399 rows) and perform a cross-match against Gaia and...

See Solano(2022). https://academic.oup.com/mnras/article/515/1/1380/6607509?login=false This is explained upthread. Vilarroel references that paper, but it's unclear which of the steps have been applied to her data set, since it doesn't match...

This is what I'm trying to work out - where and when is this validation process done, and by whom? Edit - i think maybe here: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2009.10813 Launching the VASCO Citizen Science Project

It wasn't. Villarroel's own data with regard to plate edges strongly suggest that the flaws/"transients" are more dense near the plate edges, though depending on the algorithm, this may be exacerbated by plate overlap. Remember, the graphs of the...

That suggests that the questions should be about the witnesses rather than the the objects themselves. Don't discount the possibility of "bandwagon" sightings, the urge to be part of the crowd that makes people say "me too, I saw it" when all...

We apparently may be (or have recently been) in a new shower as well, M2025-F1 discovered last March. Between March 18-22, 2025, a new meteor shower from the constellation of Puppis was discovered by cameras of the Global Meteor Network. It is...

Exactly. I think it might be an artifact in the film, but if was impossible to recreate it too, it would be closer to a debunk. But it's actually possible for it to be an object, that's all I tried to prove. Yes I made the Blender camera with...

He says: But to explore all avenues, it is worth looking into "If it WAS am object, what properties would it have to have had?" I assume this is derived from properties of the camera/lens?

It wasn't. Villarroel's own data with regard to plate edges strongly suggest that the flaws/"transients" are more dense near the plate edges, though depending on the algorithm, this may be exacerbated by plate overlap. Remember, the graphs of the...

The width of the reporting corridor relates somewhat to the altitude of the lights. A higher altitude would be visible from farther off. The map would profit from a scale, both distance and time (since the length of the lines is proportional to...

While I have complete respect for your research skills, I think we need to be careful with this data. Any report made more than a year, if not a couple of months, is likely tainted. By that time the media coverage was already creating the...

Some of the estimated UFO flightpaths are very near to/ overfly Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. If an unidentified aircraft with bright lights were involved, and it was present for 15 or more minutes over Phoenix, some of the time very...

I kinda wanted to disagree cos I don't think it's a leading question. But then presumably a question is not the same as a prompt. Would that be correct? Forgive my ignorance on asking prompting AI. I did note the "Yes" didn't really match the...
