Like.
Perhaps you're right, but when reading the whole article, one becomes a bit more concerned. Her conclusion is: "Maybe it was the most brilliant manipulation in history to stigmatize the term "flying saucer" and reshape the problem into a dumping... -

I tend to agree with you here @FatPhil that this is a good thing, but I dont think it contradicts what she does in her papers. In the paper Aligned, multiple-transient events in the First Palomar Sky Survey (Villarroel et al 2025) she does...

Maybe all that's coming from UFOlogists who are stuck in the past. Like about 1970 or so... -

Yeah, well, I think this is quite telling. Also, here's a direct quote from a text written by Villarroel in 2024: ”To break this cycle, we need to focus on clear hypotheses for what we believe we are studying, no matter how crazy or stigmatized...

Informative.
Sigma2's director Luc Dini seems to be closely linked to the usual suspects. He is one of the numerous co-authors of the "New Science of UAP" papers He organised a seminar with Mellon and Vallée... -
Dave51c reacted to Ann K's post in the thread Is there a “UAP phenomenon” worth studying? with Like.
No, we just ask them to supply evidence for what they tell us. It's the prudent thing to do in a field which seems to have a high proportion of hoaxers and an even higher proportion of people who have been fooled by mundane things. So far none of... -

Sigma2 is a subgroup of French aerospace interest group 3AF (Association Aéronautique et Astronautique de France, https://www.3af.fr/en/about-3af/mission-6531) that is interested in UFO reports. One of the articles on their website is "About...

Mauro reacted to Jeffknox's post in the thread Wilbert B Smith, Project Magnet, and his Claims of UFO Debris with Like.
I completely debunk this Wilbert Smith debris story in my lecture on YT. I spent a lot of time on this case a while back. All my sources (some of which people have already included in this thread can be found in my X/Bluesky/FB threads on the... -
Little Nell tied to the railroad tracks... When I was eleven we visited relatives in Scotland, and I found out that my aunt had a whole shelf of Edgar Rice Burrows' books, probably collected by her younger brother. I read them all. The Tarzan...

Agree.
That isn't what Occam's Razor says, or implies, not even remotely close. William of Ockham was a Franciscan friar, it is all but certain he had a firm belief in the Nicene Creed and other tenets of his faith. -

Villarroel recently posted this in a Swedish Facebook group, commenting on a post in which someone suggested that the UFO community follow Mick West and Metabunk for a more nuanced approach. Translated to English: "The scientific method is not...

Ann K replied to the thread ICA-UAP-D001 - Caison Best's Fort Carson UAP Report.Lenticular clouds, either singly or stacked, generally form over mountains where the air flow encounters the slope of the terrain. Lenticular clouds have been mistaken for UFOs, because many of them have the shape of a "flying saucer", with a... -

Which might be a way of saying "they looked at a representative sample and learned enough," but saying it in a way that minimizes what they did?

I have this idea of a ship bearing three aliens landing, they exit their saucer and say "We have seen the light for His star, finally, speed of light and all, we have our three gifts (dark matter, Element 151 and phlogiston), are we too late?"
