An aircraft's navigation systems are inertial, i.e. its idea of "level flight" is the same at any altitude. The attitude indicator's horizon is at 90° from the zenith no matter what altitude the aircraft is flying at, it is at "eye level". If the actual horizon outside the aircraft is at -2.8°...

Why is it a rocket launch trail and not a windblown contrail/distrail from a jet?

I can't get over this. Our analysis of the data supports the construct that if and when individual UAP incidents are resolved they will fall into one of five potential explanatory categories: airborne clutter, natural atmospheric phenomena, USG or industry developmental programs, foreign...

That assumption probably needs to be modified. I expect if a soldier sees something that they can't identify, there's an attempt made to identify it, before it gets reported. (The latest letter seems to allow two weeks for this.) That process ensures that almost all of the easily identifyable...

Looking back at the first newspaper report and the conclusions drawn: No such acknowledgment. And I don't think the report even says that a "vast majority" are non-UGS -- they simply don't know. One case. It "held up" in one case, but could not be ruled out in many others. Again, not in the...

Our analysis of the data supports the construct that if and when individual UAP incidents are resolved they will fall into one of five potential explanatory categories: airborne clutter, natural atmospheric phenomena, USG or U.S. industry developmental programs, foreign adversary systems, and a...

Potential for what? Scientists don't tend to investigate where there is little evidence; experiments are designed to yield the maximum amount of evidence possible. If your evidence is garbage, your conclusions will be garbage as well. You have the "potential" to find out "it could be aliens...

I think this video proves some things: a) N95 masks are effective protection if properly fitted, which is why health care workers use them. b) Other face masks don't limit breathing much and are a minor inconvenience. c) good cloth masks do retain a fair amount of particles d) surgical masks are...

Alcohol is cytotoxic (more than 10% / 20 proof). Vitamin C is cytotoxic if it's highly concentrated. The danger is in the dosage, and that is very low for the amount of spike protein produced as a reaction to an mRNA vaccination. If the cytoxic effect of mRNA vaccines exists, and if it makes...

I think it'd work out, though: if you simplify the moon into a point light source located at its center, then you'd still be 1737 km away from it at the moon's surface., and the brightness should work out approximately in the correct ballpark -- it's not entirely correct because the moon isn't...

The human eye can (with night vision) see light as low as 0.000003 cd/m². Bright noon sunshine reaches 1,600,000,000 cd/m². The "inverse square" (aka the square root) of (1,600,000,000/0.000003) is 23,000,000. The Sun could be 23 million times as far away as it is and we would still (barely) be...

This one is easy: the moonlight is spread over a large area (diameter 3474 km, the moon "disc" has ~9.5 million km², while the human body has < 2 m² skin, that's 0.000002 km². So the single astronaut doesn't get that much light on the moon; not that much more than you do on Earth on a clear day.

@riffology_123 Mick uses a different time axis than you do, compare them! You also seem to be processing a row that contains no data. For the period of Nov 4th, the graphs do look similar, but Mick's graph extends beyond that date and yours doesn't.

I'd only expect that to happen if the report itself was published in a reputable journal. Was it?

Damp wood (as in an alive tree) has a resistivity of 1000 to 10,000 Ω·m Air has a resistivity of 1 billion (US) to 1 quadrillion (US) Ω·m ( source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistivity_and_conductivity ) So there is a factor of at least 100,000 between the tree and the air...

"piezoelectric energy" is snake oil. Electric energy is electric energy, and the pathways for it through the body are the nerve fibres. If I was looking for a scientific network of "life force", I'd be looking there, because if you cut the nerves, your will (as a form of life force) gets cut...

I only now realize that the USS Louisville is a submarine it is 110m long overall according to wikipedia, this is 40% longer than the body (or the wingspan) of the largest passenger jets The blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus) is a marine mammal belonging to the baleen whale parvorder...

I thought the dementi was overly specific :-p but anyway, are these targets usually launched by submarines? or is the disturbance in the water unrelated?

no, they believe that NASA faked everything (in a live broadcast with school kids) but they overlooked this reflection by mistake, which exposes the rest of the huge fakery that is going on
