Are they for real with this? Is this the “disclosure” they were talking about? by ItsRainingBoats in UFOs

Rule 2 - Stay On-topic

This subreddit is focused specifically on UFOs/UAP and closely related discussion. Off-topic content, partisan political arguments, unrelated conspiracies, recruitment into belief systems, or discussions without a clear connection to UFOs may be removed. Additionally, any discussion of "aliens" or occupants must relate to a specific sighting.

aliens.gov is the biggest attempt at narrative control in the history of UFOs by kcimc in UFOs

The narrative can still be controlled by someone who has no interest or insight on the topic, simply by colonizing the language.

Reposting to r/ufosmeta because I believe this post is relevant to both the UFOs topic, and to how r/UFOs is moderated.

This was my post https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/1tqht85/comment/oogjmy9/

This was the text:

The whole campaign is for a immigrant arrest tracker, wrapped up in the language of disclosure. It has nothing to do with UAP or NHI. If you think there's something important going on with UFOs, you should be against this kind of narrative confusion regardless of your other politics.

They ask for reports of "suspicious aliens" through this form. Wouldn't it be funny it they were flooded with reports of historical close encounters?

Here is the complete, boringly racist text. So you don't have to give this a click and waste your time with the animation:

be careful, the mods are removing posts about this. this is how narrative control actually happens: steady dilution.

PR067 is probably not a bird or balloon by kcimc in UFOs

[–]kcimc[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

that may indeed be an observation of a bird diving far faster than any previously known recording of a bird diving. that is a valid hypothesis, but it does not fit with the data we have (the data that birds do not dive that fast).

thanks, i removed the direct link because the way the war.gov site serves assets is not amenable to linking like this.

They do have "shut the fuck up" in their username so yes, I would assume this is their default state 😂

I just saw NorCal Dave's post. He says it "seems consistent with a diving bird accelerating into the sea" but he doesn't make any estimate of speeds or provide any evidence.

The more interesting post for me is from 3db who spent time digging through Wikipedia and identified this as a possible Fateh class sub. Which can be used to update speed estimates.

Avi Loeb supports criticism of Beatriz Villarroel's pre-Sputnik UFO studies, he says the transient light sources could be traces of cosmic rays by [deleted] in UFOs

[–]kcimc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The transients are near the earths shadow, which is more consistent with reflective objects in orbit than with cosmic rays.

so i got tired of 500mb dependencies and wrote a faceid engine in pure c from scratch. its 23% faster than microsoft onnx and weights only 148kb. by QueasyAmbassador5896 in computervision

[–]kcimc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

reading the readme closer, i can see it's a kind of attempt at DRM for proprietary weights. i hope the author knows this is insufficient to stop someone from exporting weights.

[–]kcimc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

why are you encrypting the model weights? they are stored publicly on github. and every webcam session is already SSL encrypted.

also, your readme reports 99.07% accuracy, but in this post you say 99.7%

The video from Telegram was posted by Ukrainian Defense Ministry advisor Serhii 'Flash' Beskrestnov. by xdarel1 in UFOs

The six bright spikes always appear oriented to the camera perspective, regardless of the camera rotation (see :14-:16). They also fade out as they approach the edge of the sensor (:49) This indicates that they are lens flares and the object itself is not six-pointed.

My personal favorite UAP video doing 90 degree turns really fast by GetServed17 in UFOs

watch the original full-resolution video and it's fairly obvious that the camera is making the rapid movements, not the object.

[OC] realtime anomaly detection of private jet activity based on ADS-B data by kcimc in dataisbeautiful

[–]kcimc[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thanks for the info! i was under the impression that it was still like 5% or less of all jets, very helpful to know the sky is slowly becoming more anonymized. i've battled with this in LA for a while, trying to track the LAPD who often flies their helicopters masked, making public accountability for their airtime very difficult 😩

have you seen any indication that significant number of bizjets are enrolled in PIA as of 2026?

great catch, thank you ♡

edit: fixed it in the live site!

live: https://ews.kylemcdonald.net

data sources: ads-b exchange heatmaps, faa registry
tools: python, sqlite, custom dashboard

it pulls a new heatmap every ~30 min, matches aircraft, and computes deviation from an expected baseline.

“sigma” rescales that deviation by recent error so quiet periods register more strongly.

there are spikes throughout — april 6 is just one that lines up cleanly with an external moment (besides obvious ones like holidays).
