Yet another “it was gas” excuse
Yeah. It’s fine to consider additional possibilities for some sightings, but people will say this wraps up the loose ends of the phenomenon and that we should move on. I don’t think this necessarily explains the foo fighter sightings, but I could see the potential for it to be a small subset of similar sightings.
I think it’s very interesting that they specify that they appear attracted to nuclear sites. The Minute Men ICBM incidents at Minot and Malmstrom AFBs immediately came to my mind. The soldiers described them as orange-red pulsating glowing lights, which is similar to the description from this article.
I can see this as a possible alternative explanation there, but certainly not for other cases, such as the Falcon Lake incident.
Regardless, I’m glad to see relevant scientific research. That’s exactly what we need for explaining the UAP phenomena. But it’s hard to have valid scientific research on the subject when there is such a stigma…
