So far, no commercial airline are showing up on Google earth which proves Tyson's theory is wrong. Why isn't air balloons and other aerial objects captured?

Google Earth cameras are made to shoot terrain not flying objects.

It is 2023 and everybody has a cell phone. This is why we get 100 videos daily of crimes like mass shootings, murders, smash and grabs, car jackings, assaults, people being pushed onto subway tracks, on and on. Everything that is happening is being documented and diseminated today. The complete and total absence of any hard evidence today, is telling.

At the same time, UFOs are real. That is, things happen for which an explanation has not been found. I am open to the possibility there is an explanantion and we can eventually find it, but so far... no dice. No cigar.

It had better come quickly because I have become extremely cynical of anything that is photographed or videod today. Fakes look so perfect, that I am no longer willing to take a crystal clear video of photo as proof of an event. No more. Too many shysters are out their making fakes and the quality is rapidly getting better.

Any claim of an extraterrestrial space craft had not only better have crystal clear video, but must have hundreds of eye witnesses, among them some who I feel are absolutely 100% trustworthy. Government allies like media anchors and politicized generals are not going to sway me in the least.
Yes, UPFs/UFOs are real because there have been so many recorded sightings that cannot be identified. You are right, there is no real evidence that they are extra-terrestrial, though, but nor can it be proven that they are not. I still think it's some government activity.

Bigfoot has been reported millions of times over many years going back to prehistoric times, but in that time no one has caught or killed one, or gotten close enough to get a verifiable photo. For me that means there is little chance they exist, but still, they might, and just be good at hiding out.

For me ghosts are another matter, only because I have had 3 personal experiences that I cannot explain any other way. Again they may be explainable but since I haven't come up with any, I leave that as a possibility. Some old building owners could be playing games to attract ghost hunters, but it seems like that would keep others away. I had no idea about 2 of the places being "haunted" until I researched after, and found there to be many other similar reports.

Perhaps they are sending us symbolic messages?

Last week I doodled a few symbols I thought were cool. Late that day while on Google Earth I saw a very close representation of the same image I doodled without having ever seen it before. Is there a term for that?

The image (sort of star squiggles) is cut into an apparent corn field south of an orchard immediately northwest of where the St Croix River enters the Mississippi River at a farm property along the St Croix scenic byway.

Anyways I was watching a Neil deGrasse Tyson interview and he made the point that Google Earth / Maps has never picked up an UFO in its photos. Its possible to see airplanes flying in the photographs. Here is an example:

Anyone care to opine?

From the article:


A similar incident took place in 2016 when users claimed a plane was lying at the bottom of Lake Harriet in the US state of Minnesota. But Google later announced it was a "ghost" image - a compilation of several satellite images appearing on the website."


There you have it. Ghost images. Not real.

Interesting question. The metallic orb type as referred to by NASA are generally quite small, have been seen in various locations moving at different speeds but they should have been captured somewhere by satellite imagery - perhaps there's some sort of cloaking technology, but then we have photos of them from other observers.

Secret military aircraft also exist - the size of the black budget for such programs is undeniable, but Google Earth doesn't expose them either, I wonder if there's some sort of government oversight on global satellite imagery?

Physical evidence is what will be required. Something not natural but created by something and not of this earth.

If ET's are that far ahead of us and that intelligent. They have found out that earth is the Alabama of the Universe.
