    The manipulation of spacetime around a UAP is the first thing I look for in night vision and sometimes full color videos, 3rd video is so damn sick! It seems when the craft is changing direction a bit, a mirage of the craft forms in the opposite direction to where it wants to go, is it like…how when a jetski changes direction, it flings a bunch of a water opposite to when you directed it, but for spacetime. Or could it be heat since the clip is in infrared and that’s just the air molecules making a mirage with the surrounding air?

    I love the continued release of UAP footage by government groups, even if as a result of FOIAs. Some footage may prove to be prosaic, but it shows that there are objects out there that they can’t even narrow to a ballpark of what it is. Without directly addressing the public, the videos and admittance of the unknown still speak volumes.

      The article is behind a paywall, so I can’t see if it shows the drone in question. However, I think it’d be a failure of border patrol to not be to identify drones and have them labeled as UAP. If drone footage was considered UAP then they would have a large archive of UAP.

        To play devils advocate, I could imagine Border Patrol failing to ID the cartel using jetpacks seeing as how it’s such a new consumer accessible tech.

        Still hard to wrap my mind around the fact that actual jetpacks are a reality if you’ve got the money. Always said I’d hoped I’d live to see flying cars, real VR, and jetpacks in my lifetime when I was a kid. Didn’t expect that to be a reality by my early 30s!

      Someone posted a website from some company specifically with the drone in the first few minutes a few weeks ago in a different thread, but i have been unable to track it down. Obviously the detail isn’t there to be certain, but the size and movements were all appropriate. Basically a simple balloon bladder system with simple jets for simple control (notice how it looks drunk).
