To quote the article;
“The Pauli Exclusion Principle doesn’t only explain why matter is solid, but also why it occupies the amount of space that it does. Again: it isn’t just the uncertainty principle and electrostatic repulsion that’s responsible for volume; if matter were made of bosons, it wouldn’t occupy space in the same fashion that it does when it’s made of fermions”
The short version: It’s the Pauli Exclusion Principle.
6 paragraphs from the end of the article they actually get to the point.
Seems to be working then! (From lemmy)
The short version;
- There was probably a legit sighting of a few drones at some point. (Its a pretty regular occurrence).
- It got amplified by a few people.
- News media amped it up more
- People started looking up in the sky at night and not knowing what they were looking at.
- MANY many reports of drones are just regular air traffiic, or planets, or stars.
- More people started looking. Some of then launching their own drones to look at the drones.
- And it just kinda snowballed from there.
TLDR; People looking at the sky for the first time discover its full of lights from various sources which they can’t id.
Note: I do find it rather amusing how many people apparently can’t ID an aircraft flying overhead or know what an out-of-focus star looks like. I guess theres always new people learning new things. Just wouldn’t have put those two things on my list.
Edit: A fair bit of it is the usual “Aliens” people making noise, and im sure there are plenty of others farming engagement for $$$. I don’t think we are going to get a clear picture for a while. We will have to wait for the hype / hysteria to die down before we get any reasonable assesment.
