Probed Analysis

Sensor evidence is information recorded by instruments rather than by unaided vision alone: radar tracks, infrared or electro-optical video, radio-frequency detections, satellite observations, and aircraft mission data. In military UAP cases, a sensor can preserve timing and pointing information that memory cannot. It can also introduce its own ambiguities, because the display is a processed measurement rather than a direct view of an object.

The best-known examples are the Navy videos publicly called FLIR1, Gimbal, and Go Fast. The Defense Department formally released the three files in 2020 and said the phenomena shown remained characterized as unidentified at that time. Cockpit audio and targeting-pod symbology made the footage unusually compelling, but the public clips did not include every radar track, mission record, or original metadata element needed to reconstruct the encounters in full.

Interpretation depends on geometry. A distant target can appear fast because the observing aircraft is moving; glare can rotate within an optical system; autofocus, infrared polarity, compression, and atmospheric conditions can alter apparent form. AARO later used aircraft parameters and weather data to assess that Go Fast did not display anomalous speed, while the Gimbal clip continues to support competing analyses of rotation, range, and flight path. “Multi-sensor” is strongest when systems are synchronized and calibrated, not simply when several devices are mentioned.

Military video matters because it anchors debate in a recoverable artifact and can expose airspace or flight-safety concerns even when the object is ordinary. Yet the evidentiary unit is the complete observation package, not the most dramatic frame. NASA’s UAP study emphasized standardized metadata and purpose-built collection for exactly this reason. UAP research advances when analysts can distinguish target behavior from sensor behavior and show each step from raw measurement to conclusion.

[Retweeted] @MickWest @TheUfoJoe Pure nonsense from @MickWest, who refuses to engage when the evidence unambiguously points to an anomaly. For example, his “explanations” for “Gimbal” have been flatly falsified by *data* and *evidence.* (Ditto for, e.g., Omaha, Nellis, Tic Tac, Jackson, White Sands, etc.) https://t.co/Kg7QYhunDR

After 5+ years deep in the modern Swedish ufology landscape, I'm writing an ambitious but rather short book. On how I'm 99% sure regarding the basic binary question - are we alone or not? For reference I've co-founded Citizens for Disclosure Sweden under Danny Sheehan's New Paradigm Institute and been it's national coordinator. I'm in contact during these years with our local UAP-star Dr Beatriz Villarroel (Sol Foundation, VASCO, etc), who has agreed to write the foreword. Personally I'm a ci...

For clarity, this was never intended as a debunking post. Quite the opposite! Of all the absurd claims and interpretations Beau raised during this podcast, there was one question I genuinely couldn’t answer, so I shared it seeking clarification. I consider the Gimbal incident one of the strongest evidence-backed UAP cases we have. My goal is to help more people recognize its significance, not undermine it.

A new twist in the Gimbal UFO mystery. If the Navy pilots were as amazed as they sounded, why were they casually banking at 30° instead of hitting their afterburners and banking at 90° to pursue the object? Retired F-16 Top Gun instructor Beau Rogers raises the question. From my recollection, the pilots did pursue the objects. Does anyone know more?

[Retweeted] @MickWest Your “explanations” for the “Gimbal” UAP (your signature debunk) have been irrefutably falsified and there are now countless highly credible reports of black triangles and fiery spheres flying in profoundly perplexing ways, but *THIS* is what you’re spinning out about, @MickWest? https://t.co/Kg7QYhunDR

The confirmation th [Quoted] In 2022, George Knapp and I flew to Huntsville, Alabama, to sit down with Jay Stratton for his very first on-camera interview. Before Out of the Shadows. Before the headlines. The former director of the Pentagon’s UAP Task Force walks us through TIC TAC, GIMBAL, and GOFAST, his consultations with Skunk Works and Phantom Works, a...

[Retweeted] @JasonColavito This is the fifth report of an anomalous “black triangle” UAP in the PURSUE releases. The acting director of AARO confirmed that this morphology is one of two that stumped the USG. And, I’m well versed in “scientific measurement” of UAP (e.g., Gimbal). https://t.co/HP9SZTsfvS

This video was filmed on November 5, 2024 in Bozeman, MT. This UAP matches the irregular-organic category of UAP outlined in the Immaculate Constellation report, and also resembles the famous “jellyfish” UAP video. USG insiders have long talked about UAP exotic technologies and their transmedium abilities, but usually in the context of water and not land. Since UAP are theoretically moving within their own space-time environment, they can move through water, earth, rock, humans, etc. The only...

BAASS’s November 2010 capabilities report describes its DIA-funded personnel, sensors, Project Capella databases and engineering software. It revisits the 2004 Nimitz encounter and demonstrates fluid-flow, underwater-acoustic and radar-cross-section models. The calculations depend on assumed conditions and limited testimony; they do not measure an unknown vehicle’s propulsion or establish the report’s speculative cloaking and undersea interpretations.

"The day that I got the Gimbal video...Lue was the first person I brought in the room to say, 'Hey, Lue, what do you think of this?' ~Jay Stratton "[Lue] and I complimented each other very greatly." (Tell me again how Lue didn't play an important role in AATIP. I would've included this in Jay's book.) "Lue opened doors for me when I needed help, and any other service colleague. And we worked together, and we had friends that helped, right?" ~Stratton "Lue...always looked at things differently...
