Mick West on YouTube has some pretty good explanations behind the UFO sightings by the US Navy.
Here he goes through why the glare rotates while the horizon does not (and recreates the phenomenon): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ka_bX9Hx1H0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ka_bX9Hx1H0
Here he highlights the relevant gimbal information on the Navy display that explains the "sudden" movements of the UFO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1di0XIa9RQ&t=251s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1di0XIa9RQ&t=251s
He's a retired developer who is now a science writer and skeptical investigator (just to give you an idea of where his expertise/bias may lie)
- ColanR 6y ago> retired developer who is now a science writer Unless there's some unmentioned specific expertise, that's not a very high bar, relative to what he's trying to discuss.
- dsaavy 6y agoSure it's not a high bar, I just wanted to point out what his background was. I don't want to suggest that you need specific credentials in order to conduct reasonable scientific investigations either. His videos do a decent job of replicating the behavior seen in the UFO videos in a simple way and will give experts in the area a starting point to agree/disagree with his conclusions. Especially with the simple descriptions of the gimbal behavior/limitations in range of motion paired with the data given in the view of the video.
