Yes, but I checked my maths, and, unless you're as not in the nordics, or equivalant, at any point in time there are well over 500 starlink satellites in your field of view. (Assuming all starlinks are at 530km, and they're all tilted at 53o, and...

Can we not? If you want to use such a query as the starting point for your reply, that's fine. But just pasting that stuff into the thread is a waste of space. I think the mainly relevant part to this was that scientific interest in the topic is...

I have friends who do scientific research who do not look into it because they are uninterested, and 99% rightfully so. There are others who still entertain the possibility that someone should study those things as well (aerial anomalies in...

My take on this, rather brief: I fundamentally agree. That said, one has to clearly state where the boundaries lie. From a scientific perspective, it is difficult to justify conducting research based on an exo‑hypothesis whose statistical...

I agree, 100%. Regarding alleged alien crash or close-encounter cases, such as Varginha or the Ariel School incident, we can understand why there may be no video evidence: these events allegedly happened in the 1990s, when people did not...

I agree - we have no right to dictate what scientists should study. Funding is certainly a factor, but researchers are generally free to choose their areas of interest. Through the democratic process, however, we can influence what receives...

There are two issues in one here that I think are worth separating in order to frame the debate more clearly. First, evidence in science is not always binary. It is not necessarily just "proven" or "nothing at all." It may be more useful to...

If we look at those who applied the most rigorous scientific methodology to the phenomenon, such as GEIPAN, CISU, Project Blue Book, and the COMETA report, the professionals who actually conducted these investigations consistently conclude that a...

Citations? 1960's was Veselagos '67 paper laying out the modern definiton : think it was in Russian but plenty of stuff about Veselago/Metamaterials via Wiki/Google 1998 was Fouche's 1998 talk - linked in the post you quote. 2010 is...

Basically, I agree with everything you're saying. The problem is not studying unidentified phenomena; it's studying phenomena for which there is no evidence of existence. And doing so because the "public" demand such studies. When people argue...

The "zone" was indeed hazardous. However, the mundane explanation is that with the soviets in power, polution was rife. And no, I'm not talking about the story, I'm talking about the making of the film: Several people involved in the film...
