What is a LIZ?
While I don't doubt this, it still doesn't explain to me why these cameras need to be of such bad quality. Of all the videos posted in this thread, there were many moments where it was very difficult to distinguish whether or not...
It'd be useful to know what the background of the shot is. Is the 5 on the right hand side of the unredacted image the camera elevation angle above horizontal? Meaning the camera is essentially looking across the sky horizontally?
Them redacting...
I still can't decide if the object is moving or not. There is a persistent horizontal line in the frame which could be the horizon. If that is the horizon that would rule out a stationary object right?
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...
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...
We have long realized that no "disclosure" will satisfy the UFOlogy crowd unless it reinforces what they already think.

Is there any reason this is not the sun?
I guess we don't know if this was day or night. And the size just looks a little too small for me. But I could be wrong.
Whatever it is it is very hot as it is burning into the sensor.
Here is a good...
I noticed the rectangle shape too. This shape is used in parachutes that are the paraglider style. But the parachutes on flares are classic half dome. Another reason this is not a parachute.
As for the counterarguments as to why my distance...
I've spotted a couple of errors in the descriptions and related MISREPs (originally in the DOW release)
The correct Mission Report for PR-28 is:
DOW-UAP-D25, Mission Report, Greece, January 2024 - (MISREP) A U.S. military operator reported...
I'm not ready to take a position on whether or not it is a parachute, but I don't think this point is compelling. In turbulence or in other conditions where the parachute and flare-or-whatever are moving about relative to one another(the chute...
