Disagree.
UAP reports can be studied. But commissions have established 50 years ago that there is little scientific value in it.⁴ However much the believers claim otherwise, a UAP phenomenon has not been shown to exist¹. There is no set of characteristics... -

flarkey replied to the thread Is there a “UAP phenomenon” worth studying?.the point I'm trying to make is that the very nature of the NHI hypothesis and its postulated characteristics (advanced intelligence and/or technology) makes it unfalsifiable. Conversely, anomalous prosaic phenomenon - eg new forms of lightning... -
Mendel replied to the thread Is there a “UAP phenomenon” worth studying?.It's kinda similar to "perpetuum mobiles/free energy gadgets come from people who lack the physics knowledge to understand what they're doing, or hoaxers/hucksters". -

No anomaly has ever been, in 80 years. -

Fritzkquzerk replied to the thread Is there a “UAP phenomenon” worth studying?.I’m a good sky observer, never seen anything I couldn’t prosaically explain. But I’ll keep you posted if that happens.

Fritzkquzerk replied to the thread Is there a “UAP phenomenon” worth studying?.That’s a good point! But then I think I’d be able to debunk them. If not, I’ll post them on Metabunk.

Fritzkquzerk replied to the thread Is there a “UAP phenomenon” worth studying?.I think you point is reasonable, I’m not gonna argue against that. I guess I just disagree on the conclusion. I believe an anomaly can be entirely objective and worth tracking, even if we can't predict when or where it will happen.
