It's just that I can't think of a way to actually test it.
Like everyone, I'm fascinated by it.
Something shady going on.
Yeah, I'd love to make this ingestible to science.
That's sort of been my goal.
Like, how can science take a hold of this?
And, you know, when we do these experiments, I mean, I told you about this moon that I thought I'd found, and it turned out it was the instrument being crazy.
Because sometimes instruments do crazy stuff that we don't understand.
So the only way to figure that out is to get hold of the instrument.
We need to get it in our labs and take that thing apart and test it and calibrate it, et cetera.
And we don't have access to those military devices.
It's all top secret.
So we can't even do that experiment.
But I can imagine thinking about how to do that.
One of the big numbers we don't know, even with the visual reports, is the false positive rate.
So this is a key number in science.
Whenever you do an experiment, you need to know how often does the experiment produce something that's spurious, the false positive rate.
Now, in the US, there's about 28,000 pilots across all military branches, and they fly something like 200 hours per year on average.
So that's 5.6 million hours
in the air every year, in one year.
