The information OP gave so far: Location is SouthWest Ohio, date 10/11/24,
filmed at night, located in the South East part of the sky.

That building might be geo locatable.

Limited information on this one. Flickering coloured lights were spotted in the
sky north of Adelaide in Australia, at 8:45pm Saturday the 10th of August.
Noting in the article that it was suggested that the lights were too high for a
drone...

ERRORS IN LUIS ELIZONDO'S UFO BOOK "IMMINENT"

I collected a few errors I noticed in Elizondo's book in the above video
(transcript below), and thought it might be useful to have a thread to collect
any others that happen to be there.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Luis Elizondo's book "Imminent - Inside the Pentagon's Hunt for UFOs" contains
many extraordinary claims about crashed alien craft, psychic powers, abductions,
implants, vast government conspiracies, glowing orbs, and other unusual things.

Unfortunately, Elizondo provided no supporting evidence for the more extreme
claims, saying that they are all classified. So how are we to judge the accuracy
of claims in the book.

What we can do is fact-check as much as possible, and then extrapolate the
results of that out to the rest of the book.

There are some things we can check. In particular He talks about four videos,
Gimbal, Gofast...

a 300 Main street in Winnipeg but with a brief look I couldn't correlate it, and
no exact time is given, but I took a few mins to look at a ADSB Exchange data

https://www.ryangraves.io/p/part-i-why-pilots-arent-reporting

From a post by Ryan Graves (posted Jun 28, 2024). Since it's a paid post I'm
just extracting the minimum details:

 * a routine red-eye from São Paulo to New York
 * It began with a very bright point of light appearing directly off their nose,
   seemingly co-altitude with their Boeing 777 at 37,000 feet.
 * It became apparent, due to the changing aspect, that they were witnessing an
   extremely long object traveling at speeds that far exceeded anything familiar
   to them.
 * They estimated the object to be over a half mile long and at an altitude of
   about 90,000 feet.
 * The luminous, ellipse-shaped anomaly passed directly over their aircraft on
   what had initially appeared to be a collision course.
 * Before it disappeared from view, Captain R managed to capture the photograph

SITREC MODELS AND GEOMETRIES, LIGHTING, AND A NEW UI

New UI first. That drop down on the left was getting way too busy, so I've
changed it to a menu/widget system that I hacked together from the existing
lil-gui code




The menus can be detached from the bar and then remain open. You can drag them
back or double-click on the title to send it back.

Things are organized as logically as possible under traditional menus. But it's
only partly done. The first menu is still the catch-all for sitch-specific items
that probably belong elsewhere. It will evolve; I just need to make a couple of
passes.

Time sliders now wrap at the end and increment/decrement the one above, making
it much easier to adjust the time.

Lighting is now more accurate to time/date, with the sun's direction being very
accurate.

Here's a new model inspector; the yellow arrow points towards the sun.

This video was shot on March 24th, 2024, but recently showed up on a NewsNation
segment with an interview of Michelle. Ben Hansen was in the segment, persumable
as a representative of Engima Labs who had done some analysis, determining it
was not fake, probably outside the plane, and not that far away, but bigger than
an insect.

I agree it's outside. It's much more in focus than the window
