I agree with you, we are forced to trust their analysis which is hidden from us. They are probably getting some stuff wrong (just because mistakes always happen), and it's frustrating not to be able to independently analyze their data and confirm...

It might worth clarifying AARO's actual congressionally mandated duties, as I think they are often misunderstood to include release of analysis and data of UAP cases as a primary duty. Their actual primary mission is to collect and analyze data...

They also seem to have discarded this radar data at a later date, so this 'formal confirmation' can't be examined in detail. We are relying on human memories and second-hand accounts.

When investigating the Chilean case, there were many scientists and government officials who didn't understand what they were looking at. Kosloski saying that there are cases he and his colleagues "do not understand" doesn't mean they are...

This just isn't true. The only thing that might silence the UFO crowd is conclusive evidence that ET is here and that the U.S. government knows all about it. Anything less will inevitably be interpreted as proof that the government is hiding the...

And even the more or less scientific research institutes and initiatives established by ufologists themselves have so far produced nothing that would amount to significant evidence for exotic events. Time and again, it all boils down to hearsay...

The "random garbage" is what people who think they've seen something anomalous have dropped *onto* AARO. Blame the source, not the mediator.

Are you seriously suggesting that experience gained from hundreds and hundreds of previous investigations is "an emotional stance"?

Before having numbers and measurement methods, you first need to notice the phenomenon, frame it properly, and define what exactly should be measured. That's precisely what I'm doing. This sequence hasn't been addressed. The apparent size and...

He's bigger on the inside!

The "Amaco alien" is clearly an attempt at hyperrealism, otherwise why not use a cartoon or impressionistic painting? I don't know why you'd stand by the argument: "you can't say this is a realistic depiction of an alien without a real alien to...

Who is? Do you really think that people can possibly conduct a "scientific" study when they have nothing to study? No crashed spacecraft, no alien bodies to autopsy, and not even a scrap of either of those things? Do you really think that...

Echoing MonkeeSage above, you nailed it and possibly some of the confusion associated with AARO. It isn't doing science in an academic way. It's doing science as prescribed by Congress for congressional needs and trying to do that with a variety...

"You are technically correct... the best kind of correct." But I didn't mention hyperealism. And I wouldn't count the Amoco alien, kept mostly in shadow and lacking crisp details, as an example. I'll stand by "you can't say this is arelistic...

I don't think you do, but many here are so used to "anomalies" being equated with aliens, we sometimes have a knee-jerk reaction. IF there is a video or account that seems to "defy conventional physics" it often can be slotted into a number of...
