FatPhil replied to the thread Is there a “UAP phenomenon” worth studying?.There are no known standard model interactions with dark matter particles, that much is true. There are plenty of known gravitational interactions with matter that doesn't seem to engage in standard model interactions. What was the decision... -

Hevach replied to the thread Debunking Humor....In high school I told somebody I wanted to "hate him to death" and he immediately got a nose bleed. I'm 43 and I still occasionally try. It's never worked again:(

The problem is that this, too, is based on the assumption that UAPs represent something unexplained or anomalous—something other than optical artifacts, clutter in the LIZ, or misidentified mundane objects. I don't think we're there yet, and the...

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...

Gary C replied to the thread Is there a “UAP phenomenon” worth studying?.Well the short version is, I saw a glowing ellipse moving silently thought the night sky. It was quite large and vanished after only a few seconds. I kept scanning the sky to see if it came back and finally turned far enough to spot a plane...
