This is also makes sense why Biden doesn't want to come out with a "all under control here" speech because they have no loving baseline for what they've just discovered

Here's a video of CNN saying the DOD told them that a significant chunk of the Alaska object was recovered and that the FBI is taking the lead on analysis, FWIW:

Why do they dissipate? Not strong enough to overcome the tiny tiny materials in the near vacuum?

Other questions: who is this Ross guy

And wheres the statement about the original recovery in Alaska / Yukon

if you look through my post history you'll find that i asked the same question and got a few answers, though i still find it kind of mysterious since i couldnt find that much from searching myself, at least the uap=demons thing. but there are a lot of religious people in the air force as shown by the link above

also, isn't the air force more educated overall than the rest of the military? i would bet there are atheists in there who bristle against the evangelical wing, leading to more visible conflict

Ross is a journalist who got into the UAP game fairly recently in his career (his first book on the topic in 2021) and he seems to be in routine contact with Mellon.

luminosity in any part of the EM spectrum spreads out isotropically across a spherical surface

if you are farther away you will get fewer photons and there are only so many to spare
