The release of information about sightings comes from the government, comes from individual civilians, and sometimes comes from things like chat groups that simply talk about a case without ever showing the initial source material at all. With...

The idea that the military must be doing something and competent about these sightings is comforting, but unsupported by evidence I'm aware of. It's been a common refrain of the UFO enthusiast that the Navy's admission that the 2017 videos were...

"Proof" of what? The piece of junk TTSA had was alien? The piece of junk TTSA had could facilitate "mass reduction without losing mass"? The piece showed up in Art's mailbox in '96, so presumably it was around before that. Whoever mailed it, had...

Is that a safe assumption? Statements from these releases and AARO more generally seem to indicate that AARO is the only body trying to id this stuff, and only for recent cases, and only then because that's what congress explicitly created them...

Yeah, it seems a bit odd if the transients were the result of high-altitude airplanes, but personally, I don't know enough about the technical details surrounding how the photographs were taken to say whether that's possible or not. Still, it's...

I think this is interesting. I don't know whether Loeb's musing, that reconnaissance aircraft might be responsible for the transients, is a workable hypothesis, but if it is then it's unlikely U-2 flights played a major part. if they did it would...

1. Disclosure advocates and believers don't agree that psychologist, sociologists, and neuroscientists need to be included in such investigations. 2. AI is trained on the internet and it sees four seasons of COSMOS and twenty seasons of Ancient...

I think the closing remarks of James Beacham's talk at Sol Foundation are relevant to this thread, as he is a CERN physcist giving his views about scientific study of UAP...

I think those are cirrocumulus clouds. However, it could be that some trails are aerodynamic trails, which we've observed at much lower altitudes than exhaust contrails.

It might be useful to start a new thread for each individual case studied by GEIPAN that you or others might want to discuss, Posting Guidelines https://www.metabunk.org/threads/posting-guidelines.2064/ Or maybe have a more general thread about...

Yes, unless they are part of some grouping, like the Western US Event.

This is simply entirely untrue. This site is packed full of discussion threads with videos and photos and descriptions which come directly from firsthand witnesses who are members of the general public.

This is not about dismissing people's personal experiences or questioning anyone's credibility. Nor is it about what someone does or does not believe. Everyone's right to their own beliefs is important to me. Rather, the point is that if a...

Yes, it does. It means assuming there is a UAP phenomenon that can be studied. If not—if it's just clutter in the LIZ and system malfunctions—then there's simply nothing there to study. And the comparison with Bigfoot isn't that far-fetched, I...

Sunds like such a thing exists, it is not clear to me what sprt of quality you get -- but that includes not being sure or unsure if the quality is amazing! There is a strong opinion that the full-color night vision improves the old technology...
