Maybe a focus change?

A very common misconception; there was some terrible science communication (about the lack of crystaline structure in glass) back in the mid-1900s that unfortunately has set hard, and refused to flow away. Glass Is Not a Slow-Flowing Liquid — Old...

I think that's more common than not in heavily-glassed buildings. True, some glass may be bowed by stress, but bear in mind that glass is like a liquid in solid form. Old windows get thicker at the bottom as they slump with age. Glass buildings...

That's where I fell laughing off th' bus...

People have been dismissing the bird hypothesis because of the formation that is not V-shaped enough in their opinion. If we can compare with PR016 which was resolved as birds, we see flattish formations are possible ...

I'm guessing that whoever submits a UAP image/ video to AARO isn't obliged to consider the pattern of diffraction spikes that the imaging system might show. But I'm a bit disappointed that AARO doesn't comment on what are obviously diffraction...

Joyriding aliens in factory recall saucers!? :D

Maybe that's just how aliens drive. You turn on the engines and the entire thing explodes. Could explain why we have so many crashes! (Joking!) :D

The description states that the report consisted of the image in its present state. I don’t think there is more to it than what’s been released.

This one is weird. https://www.war.gov/UFO/?releaseDate=Release+04&release=04#DOW-UAP-PR103-Unresolved-UAP-Report-East-China-Sea-2024 https://www.dvidshub.net/video/1014099/dow-uap-pr103-unresolved-uap-report-east-china-sea-2024 It seems to...

You're probably right about the flow of glass in a vertical windowpane. But I myself have seen pieces of glass that were stored leaning against the wall of a storage cupboard that have visibly bent over the course of thirty years, presumably...

"This sort of failure is highly unusual," said Jerome F. Hajjar, who is a university distinguished professor and the CDM Smith Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering. vs. Nathan Berman, the managing principal and founder of...

{Added just before posting: I believe the video being discussed is National Archives Catalog "The Roswell Incident", NAID: 326996858 Local ID: 341-ROSWELL-41 https://catalog.archives.gov/id/326996858, 21 mins 45 secs, I belatedly noticed the link...

Sadly, people die. Or move to a commune in Tibet where there is little contact with the outside world. Or even forget that back in their salad days they made a hoax UFO picture... I'd agree the why of it is unknown, but not really a mystery...
