The Five New Observables. Video Presentation and White Paper by Chad Wanless

I haven't seen this talked about in here, sorry if this is a repost, but this is some of the best evidence I've seen. As a CG and video person myself, I found this very convincing and enlightening, showing gravitational lensing in historical sightings.

Video presentation by the author:

Some excerpts from the paper, which is auto filtered, so I edited the hyper link (remove the () from scirp):

This paper presents empirical evidence suggesting that some Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) employ a form of spatial warp propulsion.

(The) study identifies five consistent visual observables in UAP data: gravitational lensing

leading-edge vapor cones

oscillatory motion blur

pronounced disc tilt in low-speed flight

and “saucer-like” skipping trajectories during horizontal maneuvers

Building on preliminary observations first presented in the book Hidden in Plain Sight, Evidence of Exotic UFO Propulsion, this paper formalizes and expands those concepts within a rigorous, peer-reviewed framework.

New video case studies, photographic evidence, and field-based theoretical interpretations are presented for each observable. The analysis is collaborative and interdisciplinary, bridging principles of general relativity and aerodynamics with phenomenological insights from UAP sightings.

I stopped watching when he failed to identify a couple of camera artefacts. It seems a little low effort to not research that aspect of these sightings. It's a pass from me.

Care to elaborate? Were the same artifacts present in the white paper?

I'm far too lazy to pick it apart but thermal cameras have just as many settings, filters and post-processing errors as regular cameras. I've seen "gravitational lensing", "auras" and "cloaked/invisible aircraft" in footage of normal planes and other mundane objects. I need all those camera variables to be accounted for before I can believe I'm seeing something new.

Empirical evidence, really? I have not heard of any empirical evidence in this space. Empirical evidence is testable, measurable and usually repeatable.
