      as per the UFO thing and congressional testimony, just keep in mind there were hundreds of "sightings" and "reports" of living POW/MIAs from Vietnam, that were extensively investigated by congress. most of the country thought they were real. they were not.

      We can safely discount almost all (in fact all) UFO sightings but that still leaves those stubborn navy videos of flying objects doing things that no known human made aircraft can do.

          To be clear, space aliens are just about the least likely explanation for those videos. But still they show something that can't be explained. At the very least if they mean equipment is faulty, that's worth verifying too.

          As much as I think that the Tony Hawk pro skater guy is full of shit, he's probably right about sensor errors.

          I don't think that's what those videos actually show.https://youtu.be/Q7jcBGLIpus

          Quite a few people have put forth some decent and plausible explanation/debunking on those videos.

          None of those alternative explanations, as far as I can tell, has been accepted by the Navy

          They aren’t “videos” of “flying objects.” They are recordings of some data on a monitor displaying information being picked up by high tech thermal and UV cameras.

          The videos *do not* show flying objects doing things that no known human aircraft can do. The notion that craft were doing astonishing things and making physics-defying movements comes *entirely* either from witness testimony, or people's misinterpretation of the videos.
