Yyoshy replied to the thread Rare things that have been documented much better than UFOs.Agreed. A single photo or even multiple photos of the same event likely wouldn't be sufficient. There would need to be sufficient supporting data that was independently verified. E.g. a radio signal that was captured by independent scientists...

Yes. I didn't mean to be pedantic or a PitA, but you brought a good topic, so it seemed like a good time to help you with how things get posted here. We all had to learn. It's a bit more complicated that something like Facebook or Reddit, but the...

Yyoshy reacted to John J.'s post in the thread Rare things that have been documented much better than UFOs with
Winner.
I think you might be right. Maybe it's not people identified as skeptics who need to be convinced but a consensus of relevant scientists. A single photo might not be convincing evidence in a context where quite a few such photos have been... -

Informative.
It appears that there's a new conspiracy man on the block who spends his time credulously and uncritically reviewing debunked conspiracy books to an audience of equally credulous individuals Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UQZJXx6hD7g... -

MonkeeSage reacted to jarlrmai's post in the thread Google Maps oddity for South Korea with Informative.
Right clicking on google maps and selecting the lat long to put is something I do many times when investigating a sighting however I was looking into geolocating a sighting in South Korea when i went to grab lat and long it didn't work. It seems...

I recently revisited David hackney's work on the use of a camera camera obscura in art and the Tim Veeners documentary which lead me to "The Eye as an Instrument: TIM'S VERMEER". This talk was given by Dr. Tim Chupp a professor of the Department...

MonkeeSage reacted to Andreas's post in the thread Looking for help interpreting a video content with Like.
"Apparently behind" indeed. Personally, I just don't see it. The video is highly compressed, and I don't think it's possible to determine whether the light is actually behind the tree or not. There are simply too many other indicators...

Yyoshy replied to the thread Rare things that have been documented much better than UFOs.I think the comparison with rare events is useful for specific arguments, such as "UFOs are really hard to video so that's why we only have blurry videos." This thread shows examples of how that's not a very good argument. The claim is that UFOs...

John J. reacted to Todd Feinman's post in the thread Rare things that have been documented much better than UFOs with Like.
I guess I'm just trying to say that I don't think a photo or even a number of similar photos would convince skeptical scientists. Certainly not Trump making some declaration. In fact I think it would take something like a crashed vehicle that...

Harabeck reacted to JJB's post in the thread Rare things that have been documented much better than UFOs with Like.
The problem with this argument is that it assumes the very thing it needs to establish: that the government possesses high-resolution images and sensor data proving extraterrestrial technology exists. Where is that evidence? Everyone can... -
AAndreas replied to the thread Rare things that have been documented much better than UFOs.I agree that examples of rare events being photographed demonstrate that such events can be documented. But there's an important difference between showing that something is possible and establishing how probable it is. My point is that we're...

More recently I...
