I agree the Roswell thing looks fake, and it's fitting because the lead author is a fake "theoretical physicist". He doesn't have any physics degree, and lists employment like processing insurance claims and hospital bills. The paper's first reference is "Secrets of antigravity propulsion...". There's a book by that title, but it was self-published and didn't contain any secrets of antigravity propulsion and the author of that book is not considered a reliable source, so, it's quite a useless paper for anybody interested in real science.

While reading 'ufo case book' I have noticed a common pattern when witnesses discribe UFO depart. The object on the ground has to get til some ultitude before accelerating away.
They seem to always jump up using 'normal' propulsion and then being just gone withing split second? Does their thechnology work only when a bit off the surface?
Of the many possible theories.....This technical science paper (also downloadable PDF) may have information you can extrapolate that might answer semi-partially, partially, or fully give you a theoretical maybe. I have not read it in detail...just skimmed. You’ll probably know in the first five minutes...if it’s looking like what your seeking. Also, the Roswell newspaper picture is not correct as far as I have seen,

Bro let's give it up, take our ball, and go home.
8 out of 10 of these "skeptics" could shake hands with an ET and they will still scream."DISINFO! PSYOP!"
It's now clear to me arguing with them is going to be fruitless.
Let them believe that entire carrier fleets, pilots, pentagon chain of command, and AATIP/UAPTF which has dedicated scientists and technicians specifically for this with access to Classified data and tools...
Are all completely wrong, or that this is all DISINFO/psyop stuff.
It's comical. If they aren't convinced now, they won't be even when ET shows up on their doorstep.

....They for years proclaimed that all the sightings were made up by "crackpots" with over-active imaginations,...
...and when the objects themselves are finally *proven* to exist (not their origin, but the physicality and objective reality of the objects) they move on to this psyop spiel
...I won't accuse anyone of working toward these ends, "professionally," but I do find their reactions highly suspect! Either they are so personally invested in this being false that they can't admit they were wrong, or they are indeed working to muddy the waters (as they have done for the past century!)
But these videos? They are provably authentic...
...and on top of it you have the highly credible witnesses (who were there!) telling us they don't know what it was, it didn't behave like any aircraft they know and that it even defied the laws of physics as they know them
....the video showed objects accelerating to hypersonic speed, making sudden stops and instantaneous turns — something beyond the physical limits of a human crew.
Its remarkable. And now the debunkers just move on to the next thing... "Sure its true, but its a psyop"
The answer was already in my previous post. There is only one video I know of that shows "physics-defying" propulsion, according to the pilot who made the video, Chad Underwood. This is the science behind that video, it's a graph showing that the "UFO" or UAP moves is a left relative motion during the entire video, and continues to do so theough the end of the video. What Chad Underwood says is a sudden acceleration to the left is an illusion due to target lock.

Instead of shooting down what I offered him. I challenge you to “real science” his questions then. Go ahead and answer his questions, and save us all the time of attempting to answering the worlds physics based theorists questions, that they have all been wanting to be answered.
Be a hero Arbi! But.... If you can’t solve the questions of propulsion, then courteously, just let people here offer possible solutions whether they are from scientists or janitors (no offense to janitors).
Eyewitness testimony is fickle and, all too often, shockingly inaccurate
Good find, thanks for confirming the FAKE image inserted into the fake "scientific" paper by the fake "theoretical physicist". And now you have the story from the real scientist Thunderf00t in the above videos, if you believe everything every eyewitness tells you without question, you are ignoring the overwhelming evidence for eyewitness misperception, even when the witness is doing their best to say what they think they actually saw. Or 30 eyewitnesses:

Curious.....has the pyramid UFO over the pentagon video from 2018 been debunked or still unknown?
YouTube vid to dark.....however the vid was brightened up and viewable here:

Any "UFO" that looks "ghostly" or mostly transparent, like that one, should trigger us to recall that glass transmits 96% of light and reflects 4% of light, so is the ghostly appearance we see the cause of only 4% of the light being available? If so, that means it's a reflection. A lot of NASA "UFO" videos also show reflections which you can immediately discount as not being solid objects because you can see through them. Kudos for answering your own question mate.

I’ll attempt to answer my own question......
The pyramid shown, is a clever reflection of a reflection of a pyramid object manipulated within the car is the best but unscientific way I can put it,
As I just said and posted videos from thunderf00t explaining, that's an illusion. The camera is mounted on a gimbal mechanism, which causes the illusion, which is why the video is named "Gimbal". When crossing straight ahead (zero degrees heading) the gimbal mechanism rotates the camera, and some electronics de-rotates the scenery, but glare doesn't get de-rotated, so the rotation we see is rotation of the camera which rotates the glare. That doesn't mean any solid object is rotating. Goddard's journal explains it pretty well and shows other examples where the glare doesn't get de-rotated by the electronics:

You don't think the Gimbal video shows any movement that isn't compatible with the laws of physics??

The thing is, people have smart phones everywhere and take pictures and videos of all kinds of unexpected things that were never documented in the past, when not everyone had cameras. Yet, where is a single reliable video that's not fake of what you describe, "vehicles exhibiting capabilities beyond our understanding"? Chad Underwood claims he made such a video, but shows an optical illusion, I don't know of any other. So we have zero photographic evidence of what you describe. Certainly the boring descending sphere in the topic of this thread doesn't seem to exhibit any capabilities beyond our understanding. And this is the same thing we see over and over in UFO videos, nothing close to what you describe.

Surely this is true, many times no doubt.
But every single time? Its not possible.
Your assertion requires thousands of people being consistently incompetent. Mine requires one thing: that some of these vehicles exhibiting capabilities beyond our understanding are indeed made by someone other than a human being.
So all that's left of "vehicles exhibiting capabilities beyond our understanding" is unreliable eyewitness testimony. Even though pilots have a huge misperception rate, even the most reliable class of observers still has 50% misperception rate of UFOs.
My criterion is actually the scientific community criterion, and now a criterion even used in courts since eyewitness testimony is so unreliable, and that is we need something better than eyewitness testimony, like photos, or video. OK we have video of a sphere descending very slowly into the ocean, and other boring videos of UFOs, but they do not show "vehicles exhibiting capabilities beyond our understanding".
Yours requires 100000/100000
30 eyewitnesses or 100000 eyewitnesses telling us stories doesn't get us anywhere. Hynek tried to make the claim that multiple eyewitnesses having a close encounter of a UFO must indicate a reliable event. But, that's not the case as this example and many others show, which Hynek didn't realize at the time he wrote that in his book.

Eyewitness testimony can be unreliable. It can be reliable too and that's why it's continuously used in courts.

Social scientists have demonstrated through studies since the 1960s that there was significant reason to be concerned about the accuracy of the eyewitness-identification testimony used in criminal trials. Although witnesses can often be very confident that their memory is accurate when identifying a suspect, the malleable nature of human memory and visual perception makes eyewitness testimony one of the most unreliable forms of evidence.
Source
According to the Innocence Project , 358 people who had been convicted and sentenced to death since 1989 have been exonerated through DNA evidence. Of these, 71% had been convicted through eyewitness misidentification and had served an average of 14 years in prison before exoneration.
