the general consensus is that nobody has any idea. the pilots in the video had no idea, the department of defense had no idea, and video/aerodynamics experts who were asked about it had no idea.

I remember hearing about this a year ago or something.

Basically, by the very definition, it's a UFO.

That makes sense, if you get footage of an unknown aircraft odds are it's classified and worth figuring out the capabilities off.
If your guys can't figure it out releasing it publicly has 2 benefits, someone in the public might submit a good analysis and whoever owns it known it can be found (ie. it isn't steath) forcing them to spend more on R&D if that is their intent.

Aliens exist and some are present at earth. No they are not hiding among us or anything like that. They are so advanced that they are more analogous to gods than physical creatures. They either pilot, remotely control, or simply are, black geometric shapes that hover in the sky, seemingly with the ability to travel at different speeds at will, and also cloak themselves by shaping the light around themselves. They are not interested in harming humanity. We are far more primitive than they are and thus not a threat. They mostly are interested in observing and nothing more. They potentially intervene in some ways, probably to avert us destroying ourselves.

They were travelling southwards in a loose though fixed formation at 28,000 ft in the immediate vicinity of Catalina Island.[10] He was startled by their slow speed of 100 knots, but received confirmation of their presence from radar operators on other vessels.

Reminds me of this sighting which was most likely a secret advanced plane and information about it was actively shut down by US Government

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Air_Lines_flight_1628_incident

Japan Air Lines flight 1628 was a UFO incident that occurred on November 17, 1986 involving a Japanese Boeing 747-200F cargo aircraft. The aircraft was en route from Paris to Narita International Airport, near Tokyo,[2] with a cargo of Beaujolais wine.[3] On the Reykjavík to Anchorage section of the flight, at 17:11 over eastern Alaska, the crew first witnessed two unidentified objects to their left. These abruptly rose from below and closed in to escort their aircraft. Each had two rectangular arrays of what appeared to be glowing nozzles or thrusters, though their bodies remained obscured by darkness. When closest, the aircraft's cabin was lit up and the captain could feel their heat on his face. These two craft departed before a third, much larger disk-shaped object started trailing them.[4

(...)
day later at FAA headquarters they briefed Vice Admiral Donald D. Engen, who watched the whole video of over half an hour, and asked them not to talk to anybody until they were given the OK, and to prepare an encompassing presentation of the data for a group of government officials the next day.[16] The meeting was attended by representatives of the FBI, CIA and President Reagan’s Scientific Study Team, among others. Upon completion of the presentation, all present were told that the incident was secret and that their meeting "never took place". According to Callahan, the officials considered the data to represent the first instance of recorded radar data on a UFO, and they took possession of all the presented data.[15] John Callahan however managed to retain the original video, the pilot's report and the FAA's first report in his office.[16]

You ought to treat conspiracy theorist more seriously if you are genuinely interested, relying on official acknowledgement will get you nowhere. Most theories sound batshit insane but the more you read the easier it'll be to connect dots. Look into myths and traditions, religion, ancient architecture, sculptures, artifacts.

Did you know that we cannot trace our architectural history back to the pyramids or the ancient stone temples in northern india? We can trace our architecture history back to the greeks and understand how certain "styles" came to be, but for the really ancient structures it's almost as if they were built from another time.

Well the leading idea is that whatever these things are, it’s probably warp/gravity manipulation tech. On top of this though, and this answers your question, Tom, the literal mouth piece for the DoD/CIA, has his books talking about human craft with the same technology, supposedly back-engineered. His books hint at zero point for the energy source to create such demanding systems, along with advanced laser systems. So if an invasion happens, we might not be totally fucked, depends on how many of these craft we have (if we really have any at all).

The New York Times article that brought this out into the open is just the tip of the iceberg, Toms literature on this stuff is probably straight handed to him by spooks, and is the real disclosure material, if it can be trusted of course. If you’re interested I recommend looking into his Sekret machine series, I’m sure there’s good summaries/synopsis online available without having to read over 1500 pages of fiction and non-fiction.

Toms books bluntly talk about there being two or more factions/groups, one openly hostile and the other at least neutral. I only take this stuff seriously based off my own sightings, which convinced me there’s something going; what that something is, I can’t say. I have trouble fully trusting Tom because of his Freemason/gnostic background and the CIA fist up his asshole controlling him.

If we are being visited, I pray they’re friendly, otherwise we’re probably fucked. We may up end surviving what’s to come, but even if we do, nothing will ever be the same.

It did explain the GIMBAL video, it's the engine heat of a plane 15 miles away that banks left at the end of the video.

The Nimitz is similarly a plane 50-100 miles away, coupled with unrelated radar readings that don't agree, and eyewitness accounts of turbulent water.

It's nonsensical he says there's a "field" around it, as that's just an IR artifact. You can pretty much discount anything else he says that's just his opinion.

He doesn't just say this he shows the exact same phenomenon on an IR image of jet engines. You're so braindead that you can't even come up with a coherent description of what you're arguing against.

So you admit that the men aboard the carrier did not claim that this was anything but an airplane. You don't know anything about what they though it was. The only thing you know is the opinions of a few UFO obsessed people and Favor, who keeps changing his story and claiming things that aren't on the video. So again, neither the carrier nor the Pentagon misidentified anything, thus there is no unlikely event to explain.

50 miles away for the plane seen on FLIR does jibe. It's very common for these to be publicized as UFOs that "accelerate" or move in erratic ways and are assumed to be close to the camera, but these that can be perfectly explained by movement of the camera tracking a faraway object and loss of tracking due or zooming causing erratic movement. Even experienced navies have made such claims and then quickly been debunked.

I took it seriously until I read more about Tom Delonge and his pals, they are clearly just leaking these videos for publicity. They say they have more information, even UFO artefacts so why not release them immediately? Because they don't have anything else, just the three weird videos which got debunked by the way, I found a detailed analysis somewhere of how it's another jet moving away from them. Explains the rotation, it's a banking.

Us ufofags haven't been completely BTFO by this though, the one actually interesting thing we can all learn from this is that the government takes UFOs a lot more seriously than they like to admit. That is the truth to the famed "UFO conspiracy theory" which is that at times the government has been genuinely scared by UFOs yet they consistently publicly dismiss it all as unimportant bullshit. But then you catch the Pentagon investigating it....

Hypothetically, you could debunk claims made about it by UFO buffs, or you could figure out what it was and "debunk" the idea that it was anything mysterious, or you could show that it is not actually a DoD video...

Where in the Argentine helicopter video is there ever a claim it got "unlocked?" Much less locked in the first place? Because that's the one the guy you replied to is talking about.

To me, that one looks a lot like an aircraft at great distance -- including the contrail formation that the UFOlogist calls "ejecting hot material." But I could be wrong, there is very little data that can be gleaned from the video. It does not look at all like a quad-copter drone, to me.

To be fair, in the video here >>10375735 they do a lot more than say "dude." For military pilots and personnel tracking unknown aircraft, of unknown intent and capabilities, they act an awful lot like guys in the Leroy Jenkins video.

2) no way the the gov't and military officials advising TD are as retarded as him
3) if you're as retarded as TD, it's safe to assume you're not actually "working with" gov't officials in sensitive positions who have access to classified material - the best you can hope for is that you have something useful to offer them and in return they take you on a little car ride and buy you a big lollilop to show all your friends how special you are. yes, USG is the man sliding open the van door offering candy to just the right boy, because "he's special"

But like one inch of air could power the united states for like hundreds of years...so what they gotta do is isolate very specific atoms to where all the noise of all matter, all cellphones, and everything that's going on on earth can be separated from this one atom. And if you can do that with the right material you can get access to that electromagnetic wave that's powering the atom....and once you do that - it's not like splitting an atom.

I was under the assumption that it was plasma-intake assisted ramjet, part of the next generation nuclear weapon's program.

It would make sense considering it was going against the wind, against the wind means more fuel.

Russia claimed they had an RND team working on that crap, but we all know >Russian claims

Shortly after the big meeting where they announced the program, the UFO footage popped up.

I have no doubt that it was American scientists essentially indirectly dabbing on the Russians with offhand "UFO" footage that are actually black projects.
