So far it seems a bit random. It gave a location near a local cell tower, but not the closest one to my actual position. But maybe it was the last one it remembered? Overpass turbo isn't working well for me at the moment.

The more years pass without any similar technology coming to light, the less probable this hypothesis becomes. Consider also this: there is a long road from fundamental science discoveries to working technology. Along this road, even if it was...

I have no such aerospace knowledge, but I'll point out that if something's secret, the USA has miles and miles of almost empty desert area (White Sands Missile Range alone is bigger than the state of Delaware) and I cannot imagine a developer...

I've recently been working on an article about the Calvine case together with a Swedish photo analyst, focusing on summarizing the known facts and examining the photograph itself. My conclusion is that it's likely a relatively simple hoax...

Here's a 10 page thread where we considered an ATLAS launch https://www.metabunk.org/threads/could-the-gimbal-video-show-an-atlas-v-launch.12078/ Such movement (the 'J-HOOK' that mirrors the jet movement accounting for parallax) is essentially...

Since we have no authoritative knowledge of how ATFLIR derotation works, that's an unfounded statement. You have not supported this 'impossible' to the level that @Edward Current has shown it to be possible. No, the focusing on the first part...

Be thankful your politician at least eventually admitted it, these days that is perhaps a somewhat redeeming quality that is lacking more generally.

In my experience on Metabunk there are regular healthy disagreements/discussions about different hypotheses. Given the plane hypothesis is just that — an unconfirmed hypothesis — I doubt anyone, including Mick, would be categorically opposed to...

@jarlrmai What's magic about that blue curve here? You seem to overlook what the close paths can be, and the part of uncertainty/artifacts in the recreations due to imprecise data (like forcing constant elevation angle).

not sure why you are commenting on these things still, when the hatch doesn't even fit the opening, and the guy on the bottom left has alien letters on his back. What I'd really like to see is this image with a Dalek in place of the capsule.

Why is that relevant? The color mode is arbitrary, so inverting it to match the GIMBAL footage changes nothing important. The original video you link clearly shows the rotating diffraction spikes, so I don't see how any claims of altering the...
