    Geolocation Exercises

    What about the river neither of you has mentioned? @MapperGuy Moss and lichen on the tree in the foreground should suggest a compass direction.

    Fravor's Hypersonic UFO observation. Parallax Illusion? Comparing Accounts

    Keep in mind that, based on the video data, we think the jet was 30 nm away, so "in the direction of the jet" is very approximate to begin with; and that this is a self-selected report, in that we don't hear about the many times when the military is investigating a spurious radar return that...

    Fravor's Hypersonic UFO observation. Parallax Illusion? Comparing Accounts

    Hypothesis: We know there was a submarine in the area. We know that submarines sometimes release balloons. Such a balloon, being released underwater/near the waves, might initially be wet and thus reflect radar. As it dried, its radar reflection would get lost.

    We are getting to the point where we are no longer having a conversation. I wrote (and you quoted me): Note the word "unlikely". You reply as if I had written "impossible". Then note that I wrote, "which has never been shown possible". Contrast this with your source, which you failed to quote...

    Phoenix Lights

    Ok, so maybe we need to be more nuanced here than I have been. • misidentification: describes Venus, but reports it as alien craft • misperception: describes Venus as moving and maneouvering In that case, we can still say that a report from wich the UFO could be identified would've been mostly...

    No, it isn't. A misperception/misidentication would describe a base set of observation events and then determine how many of these were identified correctly by the witnesses. Here we have a base set of unidentified/misindentified object reports, and rates on how many of the reports in that set...

    "There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics." —Mark Twain The true misperception rate is 100% for all professions. However, 94% of law enforcement observations could be identified by the scientists from the description alone, which implies that the descriptions were...

    Jellyfish UFO from TMZ's 'UFO Revolution'

    The number of "floating IR jellyfish" videos is also very low, so that tracks. Including "this setting" is misleading, because the frequency of occurrence is low for any setting. It's kinda like "this volcano eruption must be a government lie to scare us all, because it occurred exactly on my...

    Crocus City Hall Moscow Terrorist Attack

    @FatPhil re: your humor post: ISIL Khorasan (ISIL - K) announced its formation in an online video on January 10, 2015. The group was led by a former Tehrik-e Taliban (QDe.132) commander, , and was established by former Taliban faction commanders who swore an oath of allegiance to the Islamic...

    motive & opportunity too bad that the K in ISIL-K doesn't stand for "Kawkas" but hey, at least the "two years" puts the blame back on Ukraine for being the target of the special military operation in that time. :p

    Havana Syndrome: "Sonic Attacks" at the US Embassy in Cuba - Mass Hysteria?

    Could you please post the evidence for that claim? "The Insider" does not mention it. "synchronous" means "at the same time". However, the attack occurred after they had left, so it was not synchronous. They were not at the scene. The claim is, "they traveled back to Russia on the day before...
