Yyoshy reacted to Gary C's post in the thread Rare things that have been documented much better than UFOs with Informative.
That could be quite an effective response to the next "orb" posted on r/UFOs. User posts another orb, you post a gif of the PRC's spaceplane taken on orbit.

AAndreas replied to the thread Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot film is a hoax?.I had never really taken a close look at the 1967 PG film before. Sure, I'd seen it numerous times, but I'd never bothered to properly analyze what I was looking at. (Frankly, I've never been that interested in Bigfoot.) As a result, my...

Please forgive my source impropriety. I had multiple sources which do not agree, and took the lower counts and estimates as conservatively as I could. There are multiple discussions on the impact of helium shortages impacting volumes. IN... -

Funny.
Well qualified lawyers can drive holes through most any argument -- it's what they do! ^_^ -

I just weighed an uninflated mylar balloon. 7.75g

Yes! Many different types in fact. And Russia was almost certainly doing that here. ICEYE-x36 is itself a spy satellite. "Earth observation" is a general term for ground photography, but ICEYE isn't updating Google maps or doing river surveys...

Gary C reacted to Mick West's post in the thread Google Maps oddity for South Korea with Informative.
It's a requirement of the Korean Government. Probably not a particularly effective one, as it's trivially easy to find the coordinates. https://www.korea.kr/news/policyNewsView.do?newsId=148960107 (좌표표시 제한) 구글 맵스, 구글 어스의 글로벌 서비스에서 대한민국 영토에 대한...
