Second question: What does David Falch say about his background in FLIR imagery? What is his actual background? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12985433/UFO-UAP-JELLYFISH-IRAQ-JEREMY-CORBELL-GEORGE-KNAPP-CHRISTOPHER-SHARP.html I don't know anything beyond this story: The story...

David Falch presents himself as an expert in FLIR imagery analysis. First question: Is there evidence to question his ability or willingness to do an expert analysis? The above post presents evidence that he does not understand the Inverse Square Law. Or chose to ignore it. Something else he...

I'll explain. I'm an old film guy. Photo major and advanced amateur in film photography. Not laying the ground for an argument from my own authority, but laying the ground to explain why I think this is (at least primarily) a change in brightness and a manual adjustment. When you increase...

I would think that the operator was twisting a dial experimentally. Just to see what looked better. Hunting around. If the image looked crappier instead of better, he'd go back. That's what this looks like to me. Something a human would do. Just an educated guess based on experience though.

Related issue. We have to keep in mind that this is a multi-generation video. One generation includes a different camera. The video we have was taken by a camera pointed at a video display. It's a bootleg. What was that bootleg camera doing while it was pointed at the video display? And...

Some members were saying earlier in the thread that the "camera was adjusting contrast." I think we can all agree that the changes in the values we see during the course of this video are due to changes in brightness. I'm just an old film guy, but I hope I can clarify. The image we see on the...

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12985433/UFO-UAP-JELLYFISH-IRAQ-JEREMY-CORBELL-GEORGE-KNAPP-CHRISTOPHER-SHARP.html An assertion by Falch, but is it a reliable assertion? Consider track record. At that time Falch either didn't understand that an aluminized balloon reflects the...

The test balloons tend to be in a single layer. The UAP balloon is a cluster. We would be looking through many balloons rather than one or two. He didn't test balloons in a large cluster. Did he try different exposure settings to see if the test balloons might become more visible? He...

A problem that's immediately obvious. In his "experiment" he placed his test balloons in a different environment, not a similar environment. -The UAP balloon cluster is drifting across a distant background. The balloons in this video are hanging directly in front of trees. -The UAP balloon...

Hold on now. That's not the way perspective works. Let's remember there's such a thing as perspective distortion. This is a distant scene so compression distortion is specifically what we should be talking about. I have no time at all right now. I'll just say the more distant the objects...

I'm open to changing my mind about whether there is any light showing through the fabric of the balloon. I still don't think it's necessarily true. But I'm open. Also, in these frames, there's something happening to the "legs." There's a third, separate piece that may be attached to either...

I think he means that gas can't impart momentum, or has a hard time imparting momentum, to a solid. Because of mass...

He's all over the place. It's hard to tell what the subject is at any time, or maybe it's multiple subjects at a time. Meaning that wind can't blow without turbulence or seldom does? I asked Bing Chat about low and high entropy winds But it was useless. It came up with some nonsense; mixing...

Guys, I know it's really hard to tell, but our friend wasn't talking about buoyancy. He was talking about the velocity of a free floating helium or hot air balloon matching the velocity of the wind. I think!

Ah. You're stuck on the problem of the balloon matching the velocity of the wind. (I guess.) So your concept is that a balloon could never match the velocity of the wind because gases have more entropy than a solid (latex). (I guess.) Or is it that solids have more mass than gases, and since...

I'm curious. What is your concept about why an empty latex balloon lies on the ground, but a latex balloon filled with helium rises? And a latex balloon filled with air lies on the ground. And a hot air balloon rises.

Serious question. Are you trolling?
