Wow.
I replicated it. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQcNPPXyq_U Swiping my finger across this video when viewed full screen gives a very convincing illusion that it affected the region I swiped over. -
Isn’t this kind of faulty thinking at the heart of recent UFOology: it’s not impossible an unidentified object is NHI, therefore the probability it is NHI is 50%. -
Short answer for the UFOlogists, in the `80s the oil companies were near the top of the economic heap in the western world and had the money to do this sort of promotion.

Imagine you have a big pile of dirty marbles, so dirty you cannot tell which colour they are. With some effort you manage to clean one and you see it's black. Then you manage to clean another and it's black too. You go on in your cleaning effort... -
What a silly show. Did any of the orb "summoners" have Micks new Starlink predictor app on their smartphone? Will the "summoners" allow anyone WITH that app on their phone to take part in an event like this? Or will they be banned from attending...

Mick West replied to the thread 2 reddit threads to show the power of sitrec.I'm not sure about this. Castor and Pollux don't really seem to line up, and while the motion of the ISS and the satllite looks correct, it does not keep up with the video. Here, I partially stabilized it. The horiuzon seems level, so the stars... -
Why do these folks demand disclosure if they can just summon aliens any time they want?

Carl Crusher has posted a long video recorded at the recent Contact in the Desert conference in Palm Springs. They claim the video shows them summoning orbs with their minds. This is the video ... Source...

Ann K replied to the thread The "Amoco Alien".There's no problem with saying "a realistic depiction". The difficulty comes when you add "of an alien", when technically it really should be "of an imaginary creature". @JMartJr 's point is valid. -

Agree.
It's possible the full picture is birds, balloons, other people's drones, misunderstandings of visible spectrum imagery of intense IR sources etc. etc. If this is the case, we still learn something from working out what is being seen/ detected/... -
"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...

The Amoco alien was meant to be a "realistic" depiction of an alien conforming to popular culture depictions/ "experiencer" reports of that time (which are much the same now). At approx. 37 mins 33 secs into the video Bob Ochsler says The fact... -
