    "Metapod" UFO. Top voted post of the month on r/UFOs, maybe top of all time

    Where does it say that? OVNI means UFO in Spanish and French ( objeto volador no identificado / objet volant non identifié ). Edit: I decreased the text size and the third line with the link showed up: The explanation would be the same: Classified Channel edited their description after...

    What evidence of aliens would convince skeptics?

    Video Evidence Video evidence should have a time and location, a source that can be contacted (through a third party if they want to remain anonymous), there should be a way to download the original, unaltered video, and the make/model of the device used to record it should be given. (Instead...

    "Metapod" UFO. Top voted post of the month on r/UFOs, maybe top of all time

    Then I'm afraid I don't understand the point of your post? I thought you were commenting on the fact that the UFOVNI video linked forward to the not-yet-appeared blog post, but your point is that there's an even older video (from a presumably different source) that has been removed? And I don't...

    "Metapod" UFO. Top voted post of the month on r/UFOs, maybe top of all time

    1. Can we confirm the alleged date and location (Sep 6 2015, near Madrid) from weather satellite data via the clouds in the video? 2. Why has nobody commented on the actual string visible in this video? Once you know where to look, you can also see it at other times.

    I see your Sep 8 and raise to Sep 7: I expect the youtuber updated the video description when the blog post came out.

    What evidence of aliens would convince skeptics?

    if you fire a rocket at it and it's unscathed except for scorch marks, I'd expect it to be made of such an uncommon material that its human uses should be enumerable. So it really depends on what properties this material exhibits, that'll determine how much inspection is required. But...

    What evidence of aliens would convince skeptics?

    I'd say "be well corroborated" and "not be in the low information zone", if that's what you mean? Points 3 to 5 are good. Actually, 5 alone is sufficient by itself, 1-4 just ensure it's hard to find a conventional explanation by ruling out certain types of explanations.

    What evidence of aliens would convince skeptics?

    I would actually be satisfied with less. Predicted appearances, maybe to a schedule, where the setting can be examined before and after, would do. Or basically any kind of test setting that the James Randi foundation used to use to test "supernatural" powers.

    Explained: UFOs over Melbourne April 2022 [Roulettes Aerobatic Planes]

    It's disinformation, justified by a belief in the righteousness of their message. They deserve none of the trust they enjoy. Science-educated people know that accurate data (source, time, location) is important. It's why UFO reports often come forth from people who are not. I feel that is a...

    What evidence of aliens would convince skeptics?

    - "trans-dimensional": what are we even talking about? - "trans-medium": in what sense? in one sense, an aircraft-launched torpedo is transmedium, so, yes, these demonstrably exist - "macroscopic-superposition" seems to refer to Many Worlds Theory, the point of which is that the branches remain...
