Oh, my God.
Yeah.
Okay, you're wrong.
So yeah, that's the point, that it's flying in ways that defy our current physics.
And so that means we should study it and figure out if some future physics might be able to explain it.
Or that's not what happened.
A sizable object did not drop from 80,000 feet.
But when you have somebody like... It was a camera effect, or it was a lens effect, or the zoom effect.
Yeah, but when... Okay, so these are our choices.
It was a normal camera lens, something weird effect, or...
All of our physics is is is off and we need a new physics.
OK, let's go with this one first.
Well, fair enough.
But I would say I don't know if you know Miguel Alcubierre is he's at the University of Mexico and he figured out a way, you know, for faster than light travel within the scope of general relativity.
It requires negative energy.
But you have things like the Casimir effect, which allow for essentially show negative energy.
And then you have somebody like Sonny White at NASA who's figuring out how to harness the Casimir effect to light up a small chip.
So you can make the Casimir effect useful.
OK, but you're doing these calculations to explain something that may not need explaining.
It's not what you think it is.
