Agree.
And at the same time the number of prosaic objects in the air at all ranges has, ahem, ballooned. More than 15,000 satellites in low earth orbit, including 10,400 Starlinks. (https://planet4589.org/space/stats/active.html) More than 44,000... -

Absolutely. If my sensor can clearly resolve a balloon at 1 mile, and balloons at 1.1 miles can be detected but not resolved (and so become UAP), I can build a better sensor and resolve balloons at 2 miles -- at which point balloons at 2.1 miles...

Exactly! Better instruments don't really help. It doesn't matter how great our cameras are; the "anomalous stuff" will still be just out of reach. -

So by "That's all I'm saying." you meant "But I'm not saying that"? More clarity required. I notice that your responses to several people have basically been "that's not what I'm saying", so lack of clarity seems to be a systemic issue. Maybe...

This only show that when witnesses give good enough informations the cases can get resolved. It does not mean that when cases remained unresolved the witnesses gave good informations.

No-one does or ever will, UFOs will just move to the gaps.

Fritzkquzerk replied to the thread War.gov/UFO - Department of War Releases UAP Files - 2026 Release 1.But better sensors don't just increase the range (the sphere radius), they drastically increase the resolution and data quality within our airspace. Solving and eliminating 99% of low-information cases closer to us is exactly what the scientific... -

I think they are mostly unidentified stuff in the sky, I don’t think they mean aliens more than “UFO” did when it was invented.

NorCal Dave replied to the thread War.gov/UFO - Department of War Releases UAP Files - 2026 Release 1.I guess I disagree a bit here. Yes, more data is always better and maybe there is something interesting, but the history of UFOs is largely a history of mostly explainable things. Misperception, faulty memory, bad photos, outright hoaxes and as...

If a video reveals two blurry pixels in one frame, it's simply unknowable because the information is simply not there to be studied. "Deploying the right sensors" is not a thing that most sightings can do, if the thing is fleeting, or (as happens...

Isn't the trench coat look, a longstanding intelligence services (particularly in the USA)/detective/clandestine skulduggery aesthetic/trope, that goes back to the 1930's. that the Matt Freer character leant into?
