A hope I have for the movie is it doesn’t use the trope of “the aliens are actually far-future humans”.
So far, that doesn’t appear to be the case, but I still worry regardless.
I think Venus is / was the typical “lazy explanation” for many UFO cases.
I don’t doubt that people can and do mistake Venus for a “flying something”, but you really have to be a poor sky observer indeed to do that.
But still, in this case is...

If McCasland was an important person in the chain of information about (postulated) UFOs, might I suggest an alternative to the overly-dramatic action film scenario that the "bad guys" (however you define that) "disappeared" him?

I think that's a fair point, but at the time of the Chinese balloon and subsequent balloon shootdowns there wasn't such a capability.

At what point do you assign people agency? Hardcore believers presumably describe people who, for whatever reason, have clung to their beliefs and hopes in the face of innumerable let-downs, LIZ-adjacent inscrutable unproven sources, proper and...
Here's Imbrogno, a short time after that other newspaper article, at a conference. He admits that some of the sightings were spawned by pilots playing tricks. But they were just Wiseguys messing up his very important investigation of a real...
The OP photo by @Charlie Wiser and the similar photo by @NorCal Dave appear to show lights mounted around a suspended ring, and also obscured by that ring.
If we look for an explanation that is not a prank, then an AEM loop suspended under a...
EDIT: I got beat by a few minutes...
Come now, folks. The case was solved at the time. One of the sources says...

I had the same thought myself, yet from a web search, the 1000-1300 ft altitude guess fits nicely with a typical ferrying altitude for an AEM loop of between 1000-3000 ft. The lower end of that range and lower flight speed may have been deemed...
Night Siege: The Hudson Valley UFO Sightings was first published in 1987. Maybe that's where this goof up came from. Could the text actually come from the book? Don't know.
Not many names are mentioned in the May 2026 DoW UAP releases.
