The discussion revolves around the interest in Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) and the potential exploration of their workings, particularly in light of recent video and picture leaks. Participants express varying levels of enthusiasm for discussing the implications of these phenomena within a technical context.
Participants do not reach a consensus; there are competing views on the validity of UAP sightings and the appropriateness of discussing them in a technical forum. Some participants are eager to explore the topic, while others emphasize caution and adherence to forum guidelines.
Limitations include the forum's discouragement of UAP discussions, which may restrict the depth of exploration into the subject matter. There is also an acknowledgment of the potential for misunderstanding due to partial knowledge of the phenomena.
Well, it's not to say every sighting is legit, but obviously some are. I hesitate to even converse with someone so closed minded. Where is your sense of interest in cutting edge Aerospace? And if you don't have any, then why the heck are you even here?jedishrfu said:First PF discourages discussion of UFO's in general. However, if you want to discuss how these images are explained via optical illusions or some artifact of the hardware recording the image then that would be okay.
So many times, we work with partial knowledge of what we see but upon further investigation find there are hidden facts that help to explain what we don't understand. In many ways, this is like magic tricks, we don't understand the illsuion until someone tells us how it worked.
Okay- thanks. I'll read through some of it. I guess where I'm coming from though is that I think the cat's out of the bag. Even the Pentagon now has officially declared that at least some of these are real and unexplained, and have released videos of several examples. I think the next step is to discuss how they work, and so that's what this thread is for. Since this is a technical forum in general.Tom.G said:Although it is closed, you might find this thread interesting reading:

Nope, we don't do that at PF.Spooky Action said:Okay- thanks. I'll read through some of it. I guess where I'm coming from though is that I think the cat's out of the bag.
