Ann K replied to the thread PR38: The "Chandelier" UFO.Well, you eventually got to the right conclusion, but of course the "color of the parachute" would also change in thermal imaging, depending on the ambient temperature. -
Starflint replied to the thread PR38: The "Chandelier" UFO.Regarding whether it is a parachute flare or lens flare, Mick, I wonder if you could try a supplementary experiment? Use a thermal imager in black-hot mode to capture a descending flare at an appropriate distance (where the spot size is similar... -

You must slowly cook the sauce to concentrate its flavors; takes a lot of patience, perhaps too much. Cooking it down is an essential part of preparing Skepticus Metabunkus, which must marinate for a long time so it is tender and the sauce... -
RAhh, I had not noticed that, am packing like mad to drive home from a week of showing off flying fabric of different sort, I'll provisionally accept your point but in the spirit of true skeptical enquiry will watch the video again while watching...

RRobertBillyBob replied to the thread PR38: The "Chandelier" UFO.For the rotation center to stay in the same place through the video would means the camera is tracking the rotation center of the pendulum/chute system. Here it's outside of both "objects" so the camera doesn't have anything to lock on. It's not...

JMartJr replied to the thread PR38: The "Chandelier" UFO.Not arguing against the lens flare interpretation, but I'd expect that same sort of thing for some mass swinging pendulum-like under a small chute. Edit to add this link,which hopefully no longer goes to Wikipedia talking about The Andromeda...

If we're talking about fun details on big vehicles that have been repurposed, then how about this one, based on a 1960's US ambulance chassis. The one and only, Il Tempo Gigante. It was made as a life size functional replica of the model... -
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...

The second shape is not parachute but a lens flare . The "parachute" / "chandelier" pair is rotating in sync around the red cross, which would be the optical axis I guess : Comparison of frames 313 and 3192 : The north indicator show that... -
The key point is this: none of those questions require alien craft or exotic technology to explain them. They are exactly the kinds of ambiguities you expect from low detail infrared footage of distant unresolved targets. People keep jumping...

It is rare to find a daytime shot of a parachute flare used for air force target practice. While it cannot be confirmed that the PR38 is definitely one, its erratic trajectory, the fleeting glimpse of a "parachute," and the long smoke trail...
