I think you're making unwarranted assumptions about what you are seeing in the videos.



And yes relevant data. GPS coordinates, heading, attitude of the observing aircraft. All relevant data about the camera system (i.e. orientation of gimbals or other movable components). Without relevant data object flying away at supernatural speeds looks the same as camera reaching the end of its ability to track the target.







I was replying to him with respect to sensor data (i.e. videos), I wasn't talking about eye witness reports.



But yes eye witness reports are unreliable. Our memories aren't like little video files we play back. Our memories are reconstructed every time we recall them. One analogy I read was like assembling a little puzzle. Which is why false memories are a thing, if the memory is recalled in a way that introduces information (i.e. talking to a neighbour about an event, being questioned about it by the media, etc) then the new information can become incorporated into the memory.



Every human is susceptible to this.
You should probably tell this to the Pentagon because they are totally stumped on this. They seem to think these things came down from 80,000 feet to 28000, then down to 50 feet in under a second. Turns out it was just balloons.
