It seems awfully symmetrical for that -- compare to: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/the-big-bang-enthralling-photos-of-exploding-bullets-3534366/ For her project "The Big Bang", photographer Deborah Bay captured macro...

More on "Flash" (from two years ago), https://www.technologyreview.com/2024/09/12/1103833/ukraine-russia-drone-war-flash-radio-serhii-beskrestnov-social-media/ This anecdote is emblematic of Flash's frustration with a military complex that may...

There is some change in perspective & outline of the 'thing' (?) as the camera moves around.

What is your evidence that these two images were captured from the same platform? Different platforms won't match, as artefacts like diffraction spikes and lens flares are intimately related to the geometry of the optics.

Hi all, I'm a 3D generalist from the UK, so I've enjoyed reading debunks on here over the years as it crosses over well with replicating reality (cameras, optics, material science etc). I've visited occasionally for quite a few years but with...

A parachuting flare is a proposed hypothesis that fits the visuals at first glance; however, it may be a good example of dynamic pareidolia, instead of "nonsense", or a reason for embarrassment. Other hypotheses are that the "parachute" might...

Status update on Vasco60 work: I've spent some time building a controlled "surgical" test harness to compare individual MNRAS candidate coordinates against SExtractor/PSFEx outputs on the same tile centres, including parity logic such as the...

Also some other details. It appears there was an attempt to "lock on" or "box" the main object. 1m 26s in Also there is some odd color information early on in the video.

Yes, read the thread. You're welcome to challenge the rebuttals in it.

Hi guys: Received this from a friend while he was looking through his old digital camera. Photo taken way back in 2006 (no drones yet ~~), vietnam, Tay Ninh. Need help to enhance and enlarged the unknown object on the top left. Was playing...

The eight major spikes are, to an extent, the other stuff not so much (such as the extra spike to the left). Even with the "Big 8," I'd argue that the ones at 3 and 9 o'clock are visibly not on the same line, as are the ones at (roughly) 1:45...

Also, does this frame towards the end of the video show a reflection in the (possible?) gimbal dome of the drone's tail boom structure?

The second one is very symmetrical.
