That's the 2D distance on the screens. The 2d projection of the distance changing doesn't mean the 3D distance changes.

Yes I watched the footage of the parachute flare. I guess I may have been harsh. I see why someone could incorrectly come to the conclusion that it was a parachute. It does look very similar. But you are just seeing patterns like animals in the...

I think that's just local area adjustable gain control. These consecutive frames are a good example.

To answer my first question. There is no parachute, it's clearly lens flare. Embarrassing you guys came to that conclusion. If you observe the video closely you will notice the distance between the claimed parachute and the central object...

I replaced it with the final release: https://github.com/jannefi/vasco60/tree/main/releases/final_release_v1

The advantage of mirror optics (reflective vs refractive) in IR imaging is very large. And having them with large apertures, the resolution becomes insane.

this is the first release... https://www.war.gov/UFO/ There is a collection of numerous images, pdfs and videos. Edit- my initial review of the videos shows that they are more of the same - thermal videos from Reaper type UAS that show small...

The film is not an impartial, unbiased investigation. Like many other UFO-related films, It takes it as axiomatic that something extraordinary happened. Claims are taken as evidence without consideration of more likely alternatives. You will be...

Varginha is a typical case in which ufologists connect dots between events that are unrelated until proven otherwise; are biased toward the extraordinary claim, and tend to believe any account they come across that might corroborate their bias...

The low resolution and compression artifacts are annoying... My first impression: At the beginning of the video: The steady view gives the impression that the camera is pointed straight ahead and the aircraft is flying straight and level. But...

interesting? the camera just seems to get a false lock on something.

The people driving this are the usual suspects of Ufology who have managed to convince some politicians to make this a priority. The politicians are driving the DOD (DOW) to do this.

If one was expecting photos of aliens from Zeta Reticuli and flying saucers at the Skunk Works, then yes. If in fact none of that stuff exists and the DoD is just tossing out whatever they have, then maybe it starts to make the people clamoring...

Do we think the mushroom thing at [1:02] between the turbines is an some kind of platform? Like this: It makes you realise the scale. I think the white dot is nowhere near the turbines. Ah, I think it's like this thing. EDIT: an offshore substation
