This was at night? Had you been using the camera just before this? Was this near a road? Were there light sources nearby or totally dark?

I don't think the rotation of the Earth is relevant. It's all camera movement. When Venus zooms thorugh the frame from left to right the camera is moving to our left. When Venus is "hovering" it's wiggling around in the frame due to the unsteady camera.

Witnesses often use ambiguous language. Some examples: "It was over my head." In the same way that a light fixture on the ceiling 50 feet down the hallway is over your head. Meaning at a higher elevation. A compound error could occur when someone later pictures the UFO hovering a few feet...

Let's look at the recent article: https://nonpareilonline.com/news/local/ufo-alien-hoax-molten-metal-big-lake-park-council-bluffs-iowa-mystery-unsolved/article_3ee14df6-9a8e-11ee-8655-6392c9ec19af.html?utm_campaign=snd-autopilot&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter_nonpareilonline It's...

Scenario 2 won't work. I considered a natural version. It's December in Iowa. Perhaps a goodly mass of snow fell off something overhanging the tracks. What would happen? In practical terms, nothing. The water would boil off into the atmosphere. The water must be trapped within the slag for...

That is a siding and doesn't go through... now at least. Forty six years have gone by. There are a lot of uncertainties. For example the track I speculate that the train traveled on now goes under the loading chutes of the L Ave. Bartlett grain elevator. Oh it goes through alright, but would...

It's up to me to give some support for my speculative scenario... -Why might smelter slag be transported by rail? This video tells us: He means cementing material in concrete. In my speculative scenario the slag came from a smelter in the Omaha area and was transported in a slag car across...

I don't agree that anything in the primary sources says that the material was found inside the park. The first local newspaper story says, "... the Big Lake Park area." - a landmark that locals would recognize. It also identifies the site as "... on a levee off Big Lake." "Off" in this sense...

Which is consistent with slag. Limestone is added as a flux. As a matter of fact Nolan seems to be dancing around the subject... implying by cherry picking that the material is carbon steel. My guess is that the material was derived from carbon steel. In other words it's smelter slag from...

From the Nolan et al. paper: There's no citation to this. I guess we're just supposed to guess who is being quoted. But contrast this to the info from this article: https://www.savannahnow.com/story/lifestyle/2011/02/09/offutt-mass-molten-metal-leaves/45409349007/ This seems like a...

Also from the 1998 Vallee report: Below the tree tops? That's pretty low in the sky.

https://www.savannahnow.com/story/lifestyle/2011/02/09/offutt-mass-molten-metal-leaves/45409349007/ Some assuming going on here. Hot slag and molten steel aren't the same thing at all. Transporting slag by rail is a thing. The cars are lined with firebrick as insulation. That's a lot of heat...

911 didn't exist at the time in Iowa. https://www.legis.iowa.gov/docs/publications/DF/661596.pdf Is this a quibble? Or is this another example of the story becoming garbled. Someone unconsciously assumed something happened that is now common but couldn't have happened at the time. How much...

Anyone who was here at MB in the FE years should remember Nick Davies/Phuket Word. For Example: Claim: Seeing The Same Stars All Year Disproves Globe Earth https://www.metabunk.org/threads/claim-seeing-the-same-stars-all-year-disproves-globe-earth.10324/ Some background. Nick Davies started...

Fake green screen CGI Fish eye lens to make it look like the Earth is a sphere They couldn't even get the GGI curve to look right. Maybe that's supposed to be the pEaR shaped Earth LOL You can actually hear the rocket hitting the dome. It happens more than once so it must be skidding along...

What are those two degrees?

From Hendry's book:

Not correct. A lot of thought has gone into this. You're concentrating on the unsolved cases. Have you considered what the solved cases mean? After the Condon Report, the notion that all solved cases are simply noise that should be thrown out became a hardened position among UFOlogists. Hynek...

I'm not sure why you cited Project Blue Book Special Report #14. What was the point? It was a violation of the no-click policy, btw. I've done the work for you. From Project Blue Book Special Report #14 - May 5, 1955: Basically the same conclusion that the Condon Report came to in 1968...
