Yeah but more importantly the post suggests there are likely terrestrial explanations which obey the laws of physics as we understand them contrary to what's been depicted in the media recently.

I want to believe, but I agree with the author of the post that we need to see some evidence that's outside of the "Low Information Zone"

The YouTube video on the UFO parallax illusion was particularly illuminating for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YYqVa59VRRc

There's always been possible terrestrial explanations, but those explanations are as concerning (if not more concerning) than actual aliens, which is why these things remain so compelling.

did you not read the article? what is "concerning" about "relatively high object doing 50 knots in one direction like a bird or a balloon"?
