The quest for extraordinary UFO evidence will need to go through a citizen-driven multi-faceted approach that is straight-forward, economical, and feasible. Currently, there are little to no good evidence. Once in awhile a non-verifiable sensational photo or video shows up, but it will ultimately have little meaning because there is nothing more to conclude from it. It is unlikely the Pentagon will be releasing any significant data anytime soon. Looking forward, it's crucial to adopt a citizen-driven approach that could possibly work.
A multi-faceted approach in UFO data collection involves using various methods and strategies to gather and analyze data from different perspectives. It aims to create a comprehensive and holistic understanding of an incident by considering multiple sources of information gathering.
In other words, the Pentagon's TicTac incident drew upon multiple data sources to tell a compelling story. Consider these data points:
the video
the 2 pilots that captured the video
the 4 pilots that had first-hand account
the radar data
the radar operators that ordered the investigation
and others
Had it been a single military personnel that leaked the same video without any other backup source, that TicTac video would not be as impactful. The multi-faceted data gathering for that incident is what made it extraordinary evidence; therefore, it is a template for us to follow.
With the multi-faceted template to follow, below are some tools and strategies that are important in UFO data gathering:
FLIR (Passive IR): Infrared technology can capture heat signatures and may be used to detect objects that emit infrared radiation. Thermal imaging is currently the most advanced and feasible technology for identifying objects that might not be visible in the optical spectrum.
Night Vision (Active IR): This infrared technology used to be the most viable option for capturing images in near total darkness. It uses an IR light source to reflect back as an image.
Optical Camera: Optical mirrorless camera opened to infrared or full spectrum is the best way to capture visual UAP data. However, the reliability of such data can be influenced by shakiness; therefore, a tripod or gimbal system is needed.
Radar: Radar is effective in detecting and tracking objects in the airspace. Radar data can provide information about the speed, altitude, and movement patterns of unidentified objects. Military and aviation authorities often use radar in their observations, we just need to find scaled down commercial versions.
RF Spectrum Analyzer: Some UFO sightings are associated with electromagnetic effects, including disruptions to radio signals and electronic equipment. Including RF (Radio Frequency) spectrum analyzers may provide additional data.
Lidar or Laser Rangefinder: Lidar systems, which use laser light to measure distances, can potentially be used to study the shape and movement of objects in the sky. However, as mentioned earlier, Lidar has its limitations and may not be the most practical tool for UFO studies.
Research Triangulation: It is imperative that UAP research employs triangulation. This investigative strategy involves integrating various sources, methods, and investigators to enhance the credibility and validity of findings while mitigating biases.
Armed with these tools and embolden by the triangulation strategy, the question remains: where can we find the elusive alien crafts? It is our biggest challenge as UFO sightings appear to manifest sporadically across the globe. Solving this mystery requires a collective public effort, urging UFO enthusiasts worldwide to collaborate and contribute to our shared exploration of UAP truth.
