even cruise ship captains sometimes forget we live on a globe, and that "drops below the horizon" does not equate to "drops into the water"

@JetPac again 23:30 Q: one of the things I wanted to mention, a few weeks ago there was this long marathon room that Eric Weinstein had created, concerning the New York Times article and the run-up to the DNI report and, you know, there was maybe upwards of a thousand people in this room...

@JetPac please edit your posts so that they can actually be quoted (do not put your own contributions in quote tags) and please do not post bare links that require people to click these links 12:19 Curt: you mentioned fidelity and a question that's been brought up by quite a few people (i...

you can get a good starting point for a transcript for a video by using a service like downsub.com to download the subtitles 49:42 Lou: you know the problem is that this battle isn't over we won a major battle with the report coming out the UAP report, it was historic like you said, in the...

Building Integrity is an educational project of Consult Engineering, a structural engineering firm operating in Southwest Florida. One of their engineers, Josh, has published several videos on this collapse on youtube, he's been analysing the published construction drawings and reports. In this...

If it's human, you can communicate or reason with it. Quite an important distinction.

It's kind of a bad question in that it leaves open what constitutes "understanding". If you define that as "could get it going again if it broke down", you'd probably find out that >90% of humanity today doesn't understand tanks, which are a centuries-old technology (and the same goes for cars...

well it depends on how many experiments he'd be allowed to run on it if you allowed him close he'd see it was a kind of metal jug

He will understand that a battle tank is a big heavy beast that can go deceptively fast in open terrain, and that it can hurl projectiles at range at anything it sees. The bushman will soon figure out that he needs to stay under cover, and to try and trap it in a really big pit, or a swamp.

I think if they ruled these out as sensor errors, the report's conclusions would have to be similar to those of the 1969 Condon report, maybe with "drones" added in. You've explained very well in your draft paper why that goes against the interests of those behind UAPTF.

UAPPolicyAnalyst, thank you for your discussion of my reply! I'd like to pick one issue for further consideration: My quotes: [4] P.3: "In a limited number of incidents, UAP reportedly appeared to exhibit unusual flight characteristics." [5] p.3: "These observations could be the result of...

Regarding "objects/phenomena", the risk to aviation via drones, or the intelligence risks posed by spy craft, are probably best addressed through surveillance, and not by collecting UAP reports, because it's much more useful to actually find these drones than to guess at them.

I've been trying to be short here, because explaining the ways we now have sensor data showing UFOs are both complex to explain and familiar to readers of Metabunk; for example, a fighter jet's camera tracking gimbal was not designed and tested to provide reliable information on the rotation of...

That's an interesting read for sure. (From my perspective, the paper would profit from one more language editing pass, some constructs feel off grammatically.) From the abstract: The paper falls short of elucidating these issues beyond what the abstract states, and that highlights its...

Your take: My take: Most UAP reports reviewed by the UAPTF are the result of a formalized reporting process [1] and carry data from multiple sensors [2] as associated evidence. Most are deemed to describe physical objects. [3] A small number of incidents can't be classified as potential known...

that's the key information I had surmised that salt water could randomly make telephone wires short out or not, and of course the static is easily explained once a connection was made, but I wasn't sure how random shorts could dial a number reliably. [Btw, an easy way to quote just part of a...

The sea level has risen ~10cm (4 inches) since the early 1980s; this may have contributed to the salt water ingress.

Such deductive reasoning is not evident in your original post. You're giving a quote from the report, then your interpretation of it, but no deductive reasoning that connects one to the other. That reasoning that you've effectively been asking us to challenge ("show me") was all in your mind...

That's just a laundry list of potential "advanced technologies" that's supposed to convince people that these technologies might be responsible for the "unexplainable" sightings (and it may not even have been in the report). It might be interesting to dedicate a different thread to the question...

Leaked to me today "The classified portion of the UAP report given to a select number of congressmen and senators relates to the following: 1 Energy Pulse Propulsion System (EPPS) projects 2 Ion Propulsion Systems (IPS) 3 Anti-gravity propulsion systems. 4 Anti-Matter propulsion systems 5...
