'UFOs' filmed leaving Earth just before NASA cuts feed
Discussion
Fascinating.
Although why NASA cut the feed after the incident is a real mystery. Because the feed would have been on some sort of lag and much like 'live' radio, there'd be a 10 second delay or the like.
So then if NASA did know we have regular visitors then for sure they would be more attentive with the 'cut feed' button.

As I always say, it's a pity that threads like this appear hear - and even more of a pity that they receive so many posts compared to genuine science articles.
I think it is interesting. There is a whole load of physics behind it, the way camera's work, the way humans work (eyes and brain). What is really seen vs perceived based on pre conceptions. LordGrover said:

Yes, perhaps UFO and the belief in same is a worthwhile discussion under a psychology heading as well.

Scepticism is a very worthy characteristic but only if it follows good quality, up-to-date reading and research into a topic which Carl Sagan failed to do when it came to the UFO phenomenon. He just wrote this book using generalisations.I always had great store in what this man had to say on the matter -

The following in particular is a fascinating and very detailed tome contributed to by several writers. It would test the strength of your scepticism.

Many TV shows have such a feature for obvious reasons, and radio. The technology to do that is off the shelf. Add in encoding and transmission delays and there is a decent lag. I assume it can also be software driven so no need for a human. Although why NASA cut the feed after the incident is a real mystery.

Problem with these theories is this is all in plain sight, there is a trail of evidence from the camera's electronics and type of image capture, the type of lens and all the compression used probably all the way to the gum used on the sticker that says "Made in China". If there is evidence for ET then it will be testable and able to be proven. Or it remains a UFO with the chances of it being a localised event, debris.
No amount of books aimed at making money on the subject, so far, appeared to have provided the killer evidence. Or this thread would be a moot point.

The same should of course be said for "belief" as well, but far too often we get the sensationalist "smoking gun!" story followed by point blank refusal to consider any opinions other than those that reinforce the belief. If we're criticising "generalisations", then surely "anything we can't immediately explain is automatically an alien spacecraft" is also up for criticism? If there's mo evidence for an obviously terrestrial cause, it follows there's even less for an extra-terrestrial one, but that's the default position of far too many in the field. The best that can be said for the "unknowns" is they're just that, unknown. Anything beyond that is speculation, but too often it's presented as a legitimate conclusion, when it's nothing of the sort.RegMolehusband said:

I would look at it the other way. It is right to be sceptical of everything UNLESS you have some good reasons to think otherwise.You don't believe everything until it is proved to be wrong do you?
Can I interest you in some "ManFromDelmote Money Beans". I hypothesise that planting these beans will bring you great wealth into the millions. I will sell them to you for £500,000. There is no good quality, up-to-date reading or research that proves otherwise.

I would look at it the other way. It is right to be sceptical of everything UNLESS you have some good reasons to think otherwise.Of course the level of scepticism should be commensurate with how extraordinary the claims are.
I might, for example, be willing to believe that somebody saw a dead cow on the road on the drive into work without them having to provide any evidence.
If somebody claimed to have seen a UFO abducting cows from a field - i'd take a little more convincing.
