Sure, plain version: the "six-pointed star" isn't the shape of anything flying. It's made inside the camera itself. When a camera looks at a really intense point of light (or heat, for an IR sensor), the light bends slightly around anything...

Useful work, some members also did some simulation in the chandelier case https://www.metabunk.org/threads/pr038-the-chandelier-ufo.13307/post-309157

Following up on the PR104 mention earlier in this thread - agreed with the diffraction spike call, and since AARO's own label on it is "Unresolved" figured it was worth actually running the numbers instead of just eyeballing it.Pulled the actual...

It seems to me it's in the rear cab of a long cab van or truck, but knowing the vehicle type from the witness would help.

There seem to be a fourth light in the UFO, on its left side, but it's elongated and different from the others, also fainter. Could it be caused by the 4th vane? Also, could the “opening” of the triangle happen because of the object changing...

It looks liek I think thats a great hypothesis that we should test. On closer inspection the 'opening up' could show a small point source of light (reflective balloon?) going out of focus creating a Bokeh effect making the vanes of the mirror...

Here's my recreation of the video with blender : White OSD elements are calculated from camera/UAP positions, the reddish dot is the simulated UAP. The match is good when the white N angle indicator (simulated) show the same angle as the...

It happens around the time when the objects stop moving from left to right in the frame and just before the drone start banking the other way. I think a change in the angle of reflected light is more likely.

fwiw, we know that two of the key pieces of info we've been given, can't both be true. A camera introduced in 2011 can not have filmed a supposed 2009 event. That said, if only the event date (2009) is untrue, and the camera actually was a Sony...

Regarding the number of fragments it seems there's disagreement about whether it was four, five or seven. Samantha Karner (ATF) is the examiner who actually received the sealed evidence, documented and prepared 6A, test-fired the rifle, and ran...

I mean before the impact to Kirk. I was responding to the idea of him being hit by fragments. Looking through some more stuff the guy may have been able to hit the tent and send shrapnel but I'm not really sure. We'd need a 3d recreational to...

Here is a list of assumptions I have gathered to start with. They are from a number of interviews that I don’t have links for, but that’s why I thought having some of the more debate-able “facts” of the case as adjustable variables. *Nimitz...

It's just too hard to see what motion comes from camera motion parallax, operator slewing, or actual object maneuvering. There's a background pattern, but we can't really tell what is fixed sensor noise, and what is possibly the ground. The...

Interesting that at the 16sec mark there seems to be a bright light reflecting off the the shiney vehicle interior trim at the same time that the bright light is (apparently) outside of the vehicle. That suggests a hoax to me.
