What Hacker News said

Critical simonh · 2020-06 · on “Manned fighter to face autonomous drone next year”

The recently declassified 'UFO' sightings have been pretty thoroughly debunked as spurious. [this video]

Critical dj_gitmo · 2020-07 · on “Pentagon's UFO Unit to Disclose Some of Its Findings to the Public”

This video argues that the object was probably just a bird, and the apparent speed was a result of parallax. Seems more plausible than the alternatives. [this video]

Critical etrabroline · 2021-04 · on “Pentagon confirms leaked photos and video of UFOs are legitimate”

These are not aliens. Media love to insinuate that they are because it gets clicks. (or even outright say they are aliens) [this video] [LINK] [LINK]

Critical etrabroline · 2021-05 · on “How the Pentagon started taking UFOs seriously”

It is obvious to any expert that these are not space aliens. that makes the question of why the Navy is hyping them even more interesting. [this video]

Critical oceanghost · 2021-07 · on “UFOs: 'These objects show physics we don't understand'”

I've said it once, I'll say it again-- these videos are all explained and all have been debunked. This is most likely a advertisement for the US Military's ability to track very small things such as drones. If there are videos of things that might be alien-- these are not them.

Critical danbruc · 2022-03 · on “Flight characteristics of anomalous unidentified aerial vehicles (2019)”

At least those videos [1] are just birds, see for example this analysis [2]. Skip to the meat of it, if you dislike the style of the video. [1] [LINK] [2] [this video]
