Yeah, I know we're on the opposite side of continuum on this point of reference. :)
I am not sure I am fan of Robert. I don't think it's because we think differently. I don't just naturally jump to UFO-Alien conclusion.
So, let's say for a moment, 1952 was just weather. How have we not had weather phenomena where not only have witness saw lights flying in formation but also pinged in on radar before or since? Let's say the Tic-Tac was weather. How come it pinged in on new, super spy radar, and not the old, aged trusted radar? Also, how do we explain weather phenomena responding, apparently intelligently so, to other aircraft, which was reported in the 1952 and the 2004 tic-tac incident?
Are you familiar with O'Hare incident? Pilots, ground grew, people on the highway that stopped to view a metallic looking object, as big as the airplane it hovered over. that shot straight up and 'punched a hole' in the over cast skies so that you had a circular pattern in the cloud all the way to blue sky. It was dismissed as being weather. Have you ever heard of such a weather thing before? have we ever seen it since? Does it mean it is not weather? No. It could be weather.
Can a group of people be wrong. Sure. But how many consistent reports like this does it take before you finally get a meteorologist to do research on bizarre weather things and demonstrate in a lab or in a simulation, or capture more footage, before we say, maybe this isn't weather?
When viewed from the lens of other sightings that can't be explained, 1952 is consistent with 2004 Nimitz sightings, and 2019 pyramid sightings buzzing Navy ship. It is no longer science to just dismiss one sighting at a time, but to view them from a collection to find consistency over time. It doesn't seem like weather should be tracking navy ships, but if it is weather I would like the Navy to put a ship in the middle of a forest fire because we could use some rain down here.
