The Science (?) of UFOOLogy takes many unusual twists, however right here is one I did not see coming. For many years, individuals seeing, and misidentifying, stars, planets, and airplanes had been reporting them as ‘alien UFOs.’ However all of the sudden, they don’t seem to be aliens any extra – they’re drones!

| Dude, that’s an airplane, not a Thriller Drone! |
All of it started in 2019, when “A number of Destroyers Had been Swarmed By Mysterious ‘Drones’ Off California Over Quite a few Nights. The disturbing collection of occasions throughout the summer season of 2019 resulted in an investigation that made its method to the best echelons of the Navy..” This, however, did not have much influence on the public until 2021. The principle video released of “Pyramid-shaped UFOs”, and cited by UFO promoter Jeremy Corbell (and others) was later proven to be an airplane flying previous Jupiter, and the celebs of the constellation Scorpius. The obvious pyramid form of all the things (!) was proven to be an impact of bokeh, or ‘how the optics represents an out-of-focus object’
Now information experiences of “drones” hovering over sure areas at night time are in every single place, similar to the basic Flying Saucer “waves” of yore.
UFO historian and researcher Jeff Knox wrote on Facebook of this photo,
This
is peak stupidity by one of many Twitterverse’s largest UFO accounts.
Lue crew. Sadly, many very talked-about accounts and pseudo-journalist (like
Marik [von Rennenkampff ] ) who just published an article on The Hill)
are selling this identical utter nonsense. That is what the disclosure
group has today….air planes they assume are cloaked UFOs.
Longtime
UFO researcher Barry Greenwood added, “The precise-angle flip seems to
be a easy pivot of the digital camera somewhat than the thing itself turning.”
The purpose must be made that there are numerous completely different sorts of “drones”, of various origin and objective. Some belong to the army, some belong to legislation enforcement, others to civilians. Some have horizontal propellers, enabling them to hover in a single place. Others are extra like standard fixed-wing plane, however smaller as a result of they don’t carry a pilot (just like the RQ-7, under). As is the case with UFOs, figuring out or “fixing” one collection of drone sightings doesn’t essentially have any bearing on different sightings. Nevertheless, the “solved” drone incidents described under are very instructive of what’s occurring in some circumstances.
One thing is not proper right here, apart from the standard incoherent reporting. I wish to know WHY the army has
by no means introduced down, or recovered, one in all these supposed drones. For that
matter, I do not assume they’ve ever even tried! Absolutely the army has
each proper to deliver down any unidentified and unauthorized craft
encroaching on its territory, and has the means to take action. Some information experiences are saying it might be unlawful to shoot at drones. Whereas that’s true for you and me, if you’re a army commander defending a place, you will have each proper to have interaction unknown and doubtlessly dangerous intruders. (Though it might not be essential to shoot bullets at it. They’ll deliver it down by interfering with its electronics.) Then they
might research it to find out its origin, and maybe its objective. The army can’t take the danger of
letting unknown, presumably hostile, craft function over its territory. It might have weapons, explosives, surveillance, organic brokers,
and many others. But they appear fully bored with bringing one all the way down to
examine. Maybe as a result of they already know what it’s.

I made a decision to show to my greatest supply for all issues army and astronomical, Maj. James McGaha (USAF retired). He’s an astronomer, in addition to a longtime skeptical researcher of UFO claims. James is the proprietor of the Sabino Canyon Observatory simply exterior Tucson. He additionally operates the Grasslands Observatory, south of Tucson, near the Mexican border.

James associated yet one more Drone Encounter he had in 2023. He was within the nationwide forest close to Tucson, capturing at targets (which is completely authorized as long as sure security precautions are noticed). He arrange inside a mud circle atop a hill, typically utilized by shooters. From there you can not see what is going on on the backside of the hill.
