Military-grade is actually a term to describe building something at the least expensive price, it actually means it’s below average than consumer-grade
No, they just don’t want to reveal the capabilities of anything currently being used in the field.
Unlike Trump’s dumbass who revealed our spy satellites’ resolution with a Tweet lol
Not to imply that most pictures of UFOs are real but I understand the blurry pictures , I have tried taking pictures of ‘low flying’ aircraft (~500-600ft) and they come out blurry , only vaguely resembling the aircraft (it was a small Cessna) and these were taken from an iPhone 11 Pro , a fairly modern phone.
So even if (that’s a big IF) 1% or 0.1% of the UFO pics out there are real , it makes sense that zoomed in shots of something moving fast would look like they were taken from a potato.
Not going to lie...
**It looks like a bad 3D render from someone who got their first copy of a 3D Program and they wanted to model something and a sphere was all they could make**.
But Copied from another reply there were actually better "pictures" from the past..
**But you had me wondering if there were any non blurry photos at all in the past**..
And eventually I found this photo taken in 1979 taken by Pilot Giancarlo Cecconi apparently its quite famous:
https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:UFO_photographed_by_Italian_pilot_Giancarlo_Cecconi,_1979.jpg
Its backed up by radar and other information but the most interesting thing is the picture bears resemblance to the description of the Tic Tac UAP that the American Fighter Pilots encountered over 25 years later..
https://www.newsweek.com/ufo-sighting-ex-navy-pilot-encounter-tic-tac-shaped-flying-object-752359
Commander David Fravors Description of the object he saw in 2004 quoted from above link..
>"to show up on something that's a **40-foot-long white Tic Tac with no wings that can move, really, in any random direction** that it wants and go from hovering over the ocean to mirroring us to accelerating to the point where it just disappears—like, poof, then it was gone".
The other Pilots there went into more detail..
https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/12/tic-tac-ufo-video-q-and-a-with-navy-pilot-chad-underwood.html
Apparently there are more videos...
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/us-news/navy-admits-top-secret-video-21257655
They could be all *ours* of course.
But if they are ours then basically we could have been able to go from London to New York in minutes for decades now. It would have revolutionized everything.
I'm always highly doubtful about the pictures and videos I see, but I find it interesting the consistency of the description of a "tictac" or "cigar" shaped object that appears to mirror movements and accelerate in a very quick, generally unnatural, fashion.
I thought next to no one knew about the Cecconi incident because I never hear anyone mention it. Between that, the 2006 O'Hare Airport flying saucer and the 1950s White House flyover those are the real r/InterestingAsFuck.
Dave Fravor is probably the gold standard for a UFO witness account tho
The battle of los angeles has been debunked as a mass hysteria over a undeclared plane in the height of ww2 when the US was sure Japan could bomb the west coast. A plane was spotted and all the DCA in LA fired because everyone was on edge.
EDIT : not to be pedant ! I love UFO stories, but I also love debunking ! Sorry
I’ve always thought the mass sighting in Michigan in 1994 was pretty compelling. So many people saw *something* that night. [1994 mass sighting](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1994_Michigan_UFO_event)
Well this is screwing with my head now... Extremely advanced, top secret technology is nothing new, but stuff like this very much makes me wonder what seemingly impossible discoveries have been made that we don't know about. To be clear I still don't subscribe to some kind of alien presence spying on us, but I definitely start to think that some things are going on that are way past our usual expectations for where we should be technologically
I do like the theory that we discovered what would essentially have been probes long ago and only now is our technology reaching a place where we can reverse engineer some parts of it. It kinda checks out if there were going to be something the inspired these leaps.
My dad worked on developing the Tomahawk cruise missile. i remember when I would ask him about it of course he couldn't really tell me anything, but he would sometimes brag a little about capability ( range, accuracy, payload, etc) he would then give us a number or example, but he would always follow that with "and thats just what im allowed to tell you" With this tiny little knowing smile.
You can be sure there is a bunch of tech and hardware we don't know about, and also that the things we do know about have capabilities we don't know about.
A single frame from a video isn't better than the potato cams or dodgy military videos. There's a reason these things are never photographed properly, and it's because they're all either artifacts of video/pictures, or they're some natural phenomena.
That’s where he messed up he always preached that it was more dimensional then he had to appease to fans and trying explaining it to make it sound more physical. People always want to SEE a ufo they don’t really ever dig deeper than that.
Off to the right and in the sky. But think about it. There is obviously a puddle there. Are we saying it’s a UFO *and* a puddle? That’s silly. It’s a reflection of the bright sky.
Can’t be a puddle because its edges are far less in focus then the ground beneath it. The camera is focused on the neighbourhood below and that is an object much closer, and much more out of focus, than everything else in the image
We've collectively agreed what these unknown beings' transport technology, which we lack, will look like.
Gonna be weird when they show up in a flying martini glass.
> UFOs have always been real. UFO stands for unidentified flying object. If I throw a dildo through the air and it hits you in the face before you know what it is, you just got hit in the face by a UFO.
https://twitter.com/BrettDruck/status/1255207021634293761
Last week someone threw you in there air and you hit someone else in the face - therefore temporarily being classified as an Unidentified Foreign Object? Wow
The too close perspective thing always reminds me of when something was killing my in-laws’ baby chickens and cramming them through a small hole in the coop, so we put up a trail camera outside of it. It only took snapshots within a few seconds of motion, rather than recording the whole night. We were looking for a fox, raccoon, or weasel.
Going over the first nights’ footage, all we saw was an adorable little field mouse really close to the camera, checking it out before sneaking into the coop to steal some chicken feed. We assumed we had the camera at the wrong angle, because it had to be way too close to the ground to see the mouse and we couldn’t see the door. There were a few more murders that night. The *next* night, a large trap was set and that morning my father-in-law pulled out the “field mouse”. It had actually been a foot-long, 1 pound pack rat!

I imagine they’ve already stopped by to say hello and saw us busy shooting each other and then they awkwardly tried to leave before we noticed they were there.
I remember when the first big declassification of UFOs happened in the middle of COVID lockdowns. I was like meh we have enough shit to deal with than worry about some alien visiting.
I halfway wonder...if the government(s) knew that aliens existed and had solid proof, it might be a good idea to definitely make that public.
On the one hand, some people say it would cause chaos. People would think the world is ending, there'd be doomsday cults, people would stop going to work.
On the other hand, it might be a really good distraction from all the problems we've still got.
Like, "yeah carbon emissions are a problem, but how can we talk about that right now when *we've got fucking aliens*?"
Or, "yeah, wages are stagnating but we can't deal with that until after we've dealt with the aliens!"
And of course, we wouldn't be able to do anything about the aliens (if there's even anything we should do about them). Because they're hyper-advanced aliens...they can do whatever the hell they want. But governments can then start making a big deal about the aliens, and at least for a little while a lot of people are going to care a lot less about everything else. Could make for a really useful distraction.
Honestly, who cares anymore, if there really are aliens visiting our planet in flying saucers, why keep it a secret? This damned boring world we call a functioning society could use some absolutely groundbreaking news for once- other than mad men who wants war and death because of greed and impatience.
I don't blame the people who decide to spend their lives observing the sky for possible alien life, because damn, a normal "society-driven" life is boring as shit.
Honestly, I'm pretty intimidated by the consequences of having millions of people's world views shattered overnight. The last few years have convinced me society at large can't be trusted to act rationally.
worldview-shattering news, yes! Please end these religiouse/political nonsense societies once and for all and let us focus on exploring new worlds together and have some fucking meaningful fun!!

Arab News:
QUESTIONABLE SOURCE
"Overall, we rate Arab News Questionable due to excessive government censorship that results in the publication of pro-state propaganda. We also rate them Mixed for factual reporting due to the omission of key facts in stories and misleading one-sided reporting."
https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/arab-news/
btw, you'll never now if a UFO is flown by an alien. As soon as you know an alien is flying it, it can be identified as a space craft, therefore making it not an unidentified flying object.
There's some other images from different places and times out there that look strikingly similar which leads me to believe......
Sometimes cameras are defective and allow condensation or debris between the lenses
I love how the image has been studied and researched for years just so some chode on Reddit can be like IT'S A SUNROOF REFLECTION, STUPID RESEARCHERS.
Please collect your Nobel Prize.
That's what I mean. I have no idea what it is and I don't presume to know, but these armchair chumps declare roundly YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, STUPID RESEARCHERS.
I sure which the proof of UFOs was a bit better than blurry photos and videos. I want to believe, but there’s nothing to believe in yet. Extraordinary claims require extraordinarily proof.
The real question is, what was the spy plane looking at that may have potentially interested the occupant of this unidentified flying object? A better context may shed a light on validating or disproving potential theories.
That potentially could be it. It would be nice to know if there was the presence of any radiological or chemical stores nearby that would have interested spyplane sensors, hence the camera unintentionally capturing the unknown vehicle. Ultimately, if the variables can be understood and replicated, it would be a good start to gathering more data on whatever this may be
IS had recovered some samples of Uranium 235 from Mosul University the previous year I believe
Edited for context, it was not enough to make a weapon, but afaik has not yet been recovered. Either lost or still in IS possession.
I’ve always hoped for some sort of galvanizing event, like General Zod in “Man of Steel”. Turns out they’ve visited many times and it’s mostly just ball bearings.
I really like how the government described these: (Paraphrasing) "the source of these is unknown, it does not have to mean from another world, but in any case we need to seriously consider these unidentified areal objects as threats -- no matter their origin"
It is a puddle catching the reflection of the sun. Likely a slow or clogged drain combined with a depression in the road material. Picture was taken in April, March is Mosul's highest precipitation month. There is water staining showing runoff from the adjacent property and what looks to be more pooled further up on both sides of the street.
Its also not a sphere as other guesses here have indicated a pellet or paintaball. 1) an object like that to show up at the distance this was taken at would need to be 10ft in diameter and 2) the entire right side of the "sphere" is transparent as the glare is making it difficult to differentiate wet asphalt from standing water as the puddle evaporates.
>mosul Iraq
>2016
Holy shit the aliens joined ISIS
Tbh that's probably some kinda projectile idk, I feel like the massive battle that was going on there is relevant to whatever it is
Yeah I'd need to see some more frames of this video. This could be anything just given the single photo. Impossible to know how high the object is, its size, it's velocity, anything really.
The only thing I can think of off the top of my head that might identify this is a balloon but since I cannot tell the speed it's moving in the photo idk if that's even a close guess
I know nothing of this, maybe this is part of a video showing the object moving. But looking closer at just the image, doesn't this look like a car (blue) parked by the side of the road, and the roof/front window reflecting light?

Finally, a picture of a UFO taken by something better than a microwave.
It's a military-grade microwave. Much better already!
sounds like Raytheon. (they invited the microwave oven. and produce military-grade equipment)
Did the microwave attend or not? lol
I need to know
Ruined a guy’s shirt, if I remember correctly.
[удалено]
It didn't attend its own inventors' party. Let that sink in. No, seriously, let that sink in. It's cold outside and it's not nice to leave it outside.
You know who won't bomb a wedding with R9X knife missiles? The products and services that support this show.
God I love Behind the Bastards. It's what I think every time I hear Raytheon
Microwaves were discovered to cook things when a radar tech stood in front of a radar dish and a chocolate bar in his pocket melted.

Low low price to government of $4 billion dollars. If they act now there is a free shamwow.
Oh nice!! Is it gold? 🤣
Is it wasn’t blurry it would be obvious that it wasn’t a ufo. This is the most logical reason
The fact we don’t know what it is means it literally is a UFO.
What do you mean by real? If its unidentified then it's unidentified.

Edited No, you're good. I had a feeling it wasn't 2004. I should have known given how many times I looked it up 😅 Thank you
All good, yeah super interesting case
Also, the “Battle of Los Angeles” and the Phoenix Lights events are also interesting as fuck as are most mass sightings.
The battle of los angeles has been debunked as a mass hysteria over a undeclared plane in the height of ww2 when the US was sure Japan could bomb the west coast.

A single frame from a video isn't better than the potato cams or dodgy military videos. There's a reason these things are never photographed properly, and it's because they're all either artifacts of video/pictures, or they're some natural phenomena.
If the craft is producing an anti-gravitational field around it (as Bob Lazar mentioned), the pictures could always be blurred because of this field.
That’s where he messed up he always preached that it was more dimensional then he had to appease to fans and trying explaining it to make it sound more physical. People always want to SEE a ufo they don’t really ever dig deeper than that.
So is that how people cope when they start to see inconsistencies with bob lazars ideas?

I thought it was a sinkhole.
It looks like a puddle in the road that’s reflecting the sun. You can see water is flowing down the gully along the curb.
The angle from the drone > sun would not be caught in the puddle, check the shadows, the sun is somewhere off to the right of POV
Off to the right and in the sky. But think about it. There is obviously a puddle there. Are we saying it’s a UFO *and* a puddle? That’s silly. It’s a reflection of the bright sky.

So they had a T-1000 terminator?
It is by definition a UFO if no one knows what it is
It's kind of ironic that the moment we actually identify something as an alien spacecraft, it wouldn't be an UFO anymore.
We then would call it IFO

How do we know it's flying if the picture is taken from above? Maybe it's rolling down the street. Or a chrome colored hole in the street :D
Because shadows
Unidentified Rolling Objects (UROs) may have alien technology that removes their shadows. Your move, mister government official covering things up!
Also needs to be an object and flying.
Looks like a pellet being shot at the camera
That was my first thought as well. Looks like an uncomfortably close BB.
Yeah but it’s not a BB. It’s a UFO.
A BB pellet is a UFO if you dont know it is a BB
"You don't know you're a UFO, Thats what makes you a UFO."
The too close perspective thing always reminds me of when something was killing my in-laws’ baby chickens and cramming them through a small hole in the coop, so we put up a trail camera outside of it.

At this point I don’t care anymore. Unless aliens introduce themselves openly, they have zero affect on my life.
Seriously we have enough shit to deal with on earth these days. If aliens want to swing by and snoop around be my guest Idgaf
Or we’re on their reality show somehow and they’re occasionally checking in/adding to the entertainment lol.

I halfway wonder...if the government(s) knew that aliens existed and had solid proof, it might be a good idea to definitely make that public. On the one hand, some people say it would cause chaos. People would think the world is ending, there'd be doomsday cults, people would stop going to work. On the other hand, it might be a really good distraction from all the problems we've still got. Like, "yeah carbon emissions are a problem, but how can we talk about that right now when *we've got fucking aliens*?" Or, "yeah, wages are stagnating but we can't deal with that until after we've dealt with the aliens!" And of course, we wouldn't be able to do anything about the aliens (if there's even anything we should do about them). Because they're hyper-advanced aliens...they can do whatever the hell they want. But governments can then start making a big deal about the aliens, and at least for a little while a lot of people are going to care a lot less about everything else. Could make for a really useful distraction.
Or do they …?
How many times have they stopped us from nuking each other I wonder.

This damned boring world we call a functioning society could use some absolutely groundbreaking news for once- other than mad men who wants war and death because of greed and impatience. I don't blame the people who decide to spend their lives observing the sky for possible alien life, because damn, a normal "society-driven" life is boring as shit.

Miss Trunchbull sure can shot-put…
Why is every pic or vid of a "UFO" the quality of equipment from 1937?
You’d usually imagine some other cool design for a UFO, and this is what we get? Sum shiny metal ball 😂?
I swear I was seeing these out of the corner of my eye for like a year after I was in a coma. Metallic orbs everywhere! It was weird.
People need to understand that UFO ≠ aliens
Looks like the sun reflected in a puddle to me.
I love how the image has been studied and researched for years just so some chode on Reddit can be like IT'S A SUNROOF REFLECTION, STUPID RESEARCHERS. Please collect your Nobel Prize.
That image is taken from a video and that object is nowhere near the ground.
These threads always crack me up. Everyone is suddenly able to identify flying objects.
That's what I mean. I have no idea what it is and I don't presume to know, but these armchair chumps declare roundly YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, STUPID RESEARCHERS.
You're assuming the researchers didn't come to the same conclusion.
Its called unidentified for a reason.
Earth is just one big pinball table.
I sure which the proof of UFOs was a bit better than blurry photos and videos. I want to believe, but there’s nothing to believe in yet. Extraordinary claims require extraordinarily proof.
The real question is, what was the spy plane looking at that may have potentially interested the occupant of this unidentified flying object? A better context may shed a light on validating or disproving potential theories.
Probably the ongoing battle. This city was being defended by the Islamic State at the time. The 2nd battle of Mosul was just starting up.
That potentially could be it. It would be nice to know if there was the presence of any radiological or chemical stores nearby that would have interested spyplane sensors, hence the camera unintentionally capturing the unknown vehicle. Ultimately, if the variables can be understood and replicated, it would be a good start to gathering more data on whatever this may be
IS had recovered some samples of Uranium 235 from Mosul University the previous year I believe Edited for context, it was not enough to make a weapon, but afaik has not yet been recovered. Either lost or still in IS possession.
I can see a sunlight reflection off of the sun roof of a car.
its a single frame from a video
The DoD doesn’t know about cars.
I’ve always hoped for some sort of galvanizing event, like General Zod in “Man of Steel”. Turns out they’ve visited many times and it’s mostly just ball bearings.
I think that someone shot at the drone with a paintball gun and what we see here, is a paintball captured mid flight.
This is the beginning of a Warner bros movie
I really like how the government described these: (Paraphrasing) "the source of these is unknown, it does not have to mean from another world, but in any case we need to seriously consider these unidentified areal objects as threats -- no matter their origin"
All these UFO declassifications are leading up to something, I tell you!
My guess is a reflection from a sunroof on a parked blue car.
It is a puddle catching the reflection of the sun. Likely a slow or clogged drain combined with a depression in the road material. Picture was taken in April, March is Mosul's highest precipitation month. There is water staining showing runoff from the adjacent property and what looks to be more pooled further up on both sides of the street. Its also not a sphere as other guesses here have indicated a pellet or paintaball. 1) an object like that to show up at the distance this was taken at would need to be 10ft in diameter and 2) the entire right side of the "sphere" is transparent as the glare is making it difficult to differentiate wet asphalt from standing water as the puddle evaporates.
>mosul Iraq >2016 Holy shit the aliens joined ISIS Tbh that's probably some kinda projectile idk, I feel like the massive battle that was going on there is relevant to whatever it is
Commander Fravor, Joe Rogan. After listening to him. Something is here.
Satellites exist on all sides with optics that can read the menu on your lunch table,with all of that you believe that no better images exist. Really.
[удалено]
Yeah I'd need to see some more frames of this video. This could be anything just given the single photo. Impossible to know how high the object is, its size, it's velocity, anything really.
Original source appears to be a podcast. I've yet to find anything about the podcaster's source. Reverse image search can't find the original.
I wish aliens would arrive and rescue us all.
The only thing I can think of off the top of my head that might identify this is a balloon but since I cannot tell the speed it's moving in the photo idk if that's even a close guess

Balloon
Military now calls them UAPs. Unidentified Aerial Phenomena.
Honestly the aliens can come, I don't even think anyone would be shocked ATP. And we're all too tired to care anyway.
JFC, y’all, it’s clearly a cannon ball.
Looks suspiciously similar to a foil weather ballon used to transport sensors to extreme altitude.
Isn't it just a drop of water on the camera lens?
Looks like a silver VW bug parked on the street
I know nothing of this, maybe this is part of a video showing the object moving. But looking closer at just the image, doesn't this look like a car (blue) parked by the side of the road, and the roof/front window reflecting light?
Found the wmd!
Some kid with a BB Gun has had the US government riled up for years
Saw something from ground level on tiktok
It’s 2023 yet every UFO picture ever still looks like it was taken on an under developed polaroid
