    Champlain Towers Collapse

    https://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/miami-beach/article252421658.html In the pool equipment room, located on the south side of the underground garage, the contractor saw another problem — exposed and corroding rebar in the concrete slab overhead. He snapped some pictures...

    Pentagon June 2021 Report on 120+ UAP Incidents

    That's not how Metabunk works. You need to support your own claim. I'm particularly doubtful that you can do that with your claim that the 18 incidents are "anecdotal and loosely associated with "a small amount" of sensor signatures" ; what does "anecdotal" signify? what is a "sensor...

    Yes, I misread post #90. I'm sorry.

    Pentagon June 2021 Report on 120+ UAP Incidents

    The UAPTF had over $100,000 per report in their budget and could have easily organized an expert panel process. I would not argue that "judgment by a panel" is subjective; why would it be? The "Metabunk panel" has identified unidentified stuff a-plenty. And I'd say that splitting cases up with...

    Champlain Towers Collapse

    There might actually be a small-scale conspiracy at work here: NPR has obtained minutes of a Nov. 2018 meeting that shows a Surfside town inspector met with residents of the building, and assured them the building was "in very good shape." NPR learned of the meeting from a resident who was in...

    Pentagon June 2021 Report on 120+ UAP Incidents

    The difficulty with this comparison is the big difference in the number of identified objects. [p.28 in the PDF, p.19 in the report:] 1955 report 2021 UAPTF report Astrononomical 479 0 Aircraft 474 0 Balloon 339 1 Insufficient Information 240 122 Other 233 0 Unknown 434 21...

    Pentagon June 2021 Report on 120+ UAP Incidents

    The report says, factually, they've resolved 1 single incident out of over 100, and that was a balloon. By all standards, the report should say that the task force was a failure and a waste of money. What they're instead saying is "we could be looking at advanced technology from an enemy nation...

    Pentagon June 2021 Report on 120+ UAP Incidents

    144 is the number of reports, not the number of incidents. The 18 incidents correspond to 21 reports. I have the notion that there were 121 incidents (and the pre-release reporting mentioned "over 120" incidents), but the unclassified report doesn't seem to say. @LilWabbit , I would be...

    Pentagon June 2021 Report on 120+ UAP Incidents

    How did you arrive at this assessment? I only found this: In 18 incidents, described in 21 reports, observers reported unusual UAP movement patterns or flight characteristics. You believe if these reports also contained sensor data, they'd have mentioned it?

    Study recommends rethink of vaccination policy [paper retracted]

    Regarding the NNTV: In the Israeli field study, 4460 persons in the vaccination group became infected during the study period and nine persons died, translating into an infection fatality rate (IFR) of 0.2% in the vaccination group. In the control group, 6100 became infected and 32 died...

    Study recommends rethink of vaccination policy [paper retracted]

    Worldwide, the overall death rate now exceeds 500 per 1M population (everyone, not just infected people), which converts to >50/100,000; most Western countries have far more deaths. (Source: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries ). This outweighs even the serious side effects if...

    Pentagon June 2021 Report on 120+ UAP Incidents

    "cannot explain" and "breaks the laws of thermodynamics" are different things. Also, dark matter and dark energy can be explained; so much so that several different explanations exist, none of which require throwing fundamental concepts of physics overboard. We simply don't know yet which...

    Comprehensive UAP Hypothesis

    These were some of the experiences I recalled back in 1986 from five years of observation (1979 to 1983) of the reactions of Javan rhinos to direct encounters with humans, from a total of 29 incidents. The body of evidence that Javan Rhinos exist is much greater quantitatively and qualitatively...

    Pentagon June 2021 Report on 120+ UAP Incidents

    To expand on my previous post: Other: Although most of the UAP described in our dataset probably remain unidentified due to limited data or challenges to collection processing or analysis, we may require additional scientific knowledge to successfully collect on, analyze and characterize some...

    Inverse Square Law and the Sun

    This belief is great for explaining why the sun doesn't light up the whole Flat Earth at once if you don't think too hard about it. I mean that doesn't help you get past sunsets or the sunlight on the southern hemisphere in December, but it's a start if you want to stop thinking.

    Pentagon June 2021 Report on 120+ UAP Incidents

    An object that accelerates quickly without emitting visible heat is impossible by (my) current scientific understanding: either its propulsion system is based on unknown principles, or it manages to hide the heat it emits by unknown principles. Or perhaps the observation is flawed, of course.

    Comprehensive UAP Hypothesis

    This is off topic, but if you can show me a UAP picture this detailed, I'll agree it's worth studying.

    Unusual cloud over Iraq - from a rocket launch?

    Because the altitude was estimated as 30km, and aircraft don't fly that high. Duh. (A spyplane leaving a trail would be bad, right?)
