>I wonder if there’s satellite imagery of this event, or maybe if in the near future we’ll have greater satellite coverage so we can corroborate these claims with imagery.
replyThe more cameras we have (in everyone's pocket, in the streets, in the sky), the less "sightings" we have (of UFO and cryptids).
Tells you something.
It might just be telling you that people spend so much time staring down at their phones they don't notice anything happening in the sky anymore.
replyLots of gorgeous images as a result, though:
replyI remember being amazed when I saw this as a kid and told everyone I had seen a "rainbow around the sun". I've never seen it again in person. Maybe I've learned not to stare in the direction of the sun. But thank you for teaching me it's called a sundog!
replyPeople can and do see unidentified things and take plenty of photos of them.
replyAnd still no good photos of the moon from our pocket cameras
replyMandatory XKCD: https://xkcd.com/1235/
replyYeah, that an advanced intelligent entity, like me, is averse to having their photo taken by any old yokel who will post it online for clout.
replyThat’s the correct interpretation, yes?
No the interpretation is that the more we could prove it if real, the less we do
replySailors saw mermaids all the time too, I don't think they're all hiding under a rock since we invented the camera
sailors also reported seeing kraken as well, they were eventually proven right with the giant squid.
replyExactly, that's the point : if it's true/right, we are now able to prove it with evidence. If it's not, suddently we don't see it anymore.
replyThey reported seeing a lot of other things as well. Rationalizing that as "they were right about big squids existing" is a bit of a stretch.
replyWait, your argument is that aliens and bigfoot are just camera shy?
reply> Tells you something.
replyIt would tell you that they are not of this world. The same way as you can't photograph (other) spiritual experiences.
> This is so cool.
reply"cool" is not the word that comes to mind looking at this image.
...more comical. Word Art was used to create the rendering. I guess the original comment was sarcastic.
replyda bomb, phat, dope?
replyI think I'm missing the excitement. This is an artist's rendering of a supposed massive orb in the sky? I am more impressed by the actual UAV footage that has been released previously.
replyI feel like increasing each day, I cannot help but hear Squidward's voice when reading HN comments.
replyThe entire site is meant to distract you from asking where are the other files they’ve been required by law to disclose but have refused to. Mixing artist renderings with photography is just par for course MAGA conspiracy stuff.
replyI'm confused. Aren't these supposed to be photos, or are we expected to be agog with 3D renderings?
replyIt says SKETCH, what is confusing about it?
