Found the shots in a tweet
The 60 minutes report does not address anything that isn't already covered in the War Zone report I linked, and the many, many reports they've written on this topic over the years (I would encourage people to not only read the report I linked but follow many of the hyperlinks within that article to other reports as they provide more context).Quote:

We also discovered that initial reports that pilots visually saw these craft moving erratically were incorrect. In fact, when physically encountered, they were floating in the air and acting exactly as balloons would.

Also, many of the strange high-performance characteristics ships and planes sometimes detect by radar at beyond visual range during these incidents can and likely are the result of electronic warfare. In fact, things like rapid accelerations in speed and sudden drops in altitude on radar represent very basic tenets of electronic warfare tactics. In the case of the east coast events, for instance, as far as we have been told, the high-performance capabilities of these objects were never visually observed, but they were seen on radar. The visual encounters describe balloon-like objects doing balloon-like things—not moving fast at all—while other objects feature performance more similar to drones than anything else.
That WarZone site seems a bit sketchy.
Well written, but sketchy.
Did you not know about the physical photos then? Those are posted in your link.Quote:

Jesus, that song could make Mr. Rogers think dark thoughts.
Oh, that was worded poorly perhaps; I did not mean that there was no visual evidence of UAPs as there is obviously plenty. Not just photos, but even videos (e.g. the Nimitz incident). What I was trying to point out is that much of the focus in mainstream reporting is on the physics-defying nature of specific UAPs, but that the evidence for these physics-defying characteristics has only been observed by electronic detection systems. I quoted a couple brief extracts from the article that I thought would clarify this, specifically:Quote:

As someone who used to play a lot of guitar, I was always fascinated with Jerry Cantrell's riffs. He strumming patterns were always interesting. He could take the most common of chords and turn it into something really cool.Quote:

I love Fade Into You. Great album, too. But yeah not the happiest song.
Yup. Great tune though, and off of my favorite Staley-era AiC record to boot (although my absolute #1 song from that era of the band will likely always be "Would?"; "Into the flood agaaain...").Quote:

Popeye's chicken dinner was fab.
Happy Birthday Grouchy!
Have a good one Grouchy!
Happy grouchday birthy.
Wait, strike that. Reverse it.
Going to get checked tomorrow because I think I have a kidney infection.
Hurray.
Birthdays for all!
Cranberry juice for Meg!
