Yes this is Way Off Topic, but there’s so much noise about it, I feel I had to add my own additional noise.

The “Tic-Tac” UAP (Unidentified Arial Phenomena)  is a UFO famously recorded by US Navy airmen, and the subject of a recent full scale investigation by the US Congress. Lots of video, lots of hand wringing, lots of speeculation  that it’s aliens violating the laws of physics.  (Just so you won’t think I’ve joined the tinfoil-hat crowd, here’s the gist of it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagon_UFO_videos.)

The only way this works for me is if the Tic-Tac itself is a hologram.

As a massless hologram it could easily exhibit all the observed traits. (Amazing speed & impossible direction change are easy with lasers.) Probably generated by black ops satellites (or nearby ships). Some types of radar can interact with holograms, ie HSR.

Probably a government project. Certainly not alien. (Would aliens buzz our military, or is it more likely our own military running a test?)

I suspect this project began decades ago, with satellite lasers being tested in agricultural areas of the UK. (The so-called “crop circles”.)

The reason it’s “black” is because they must have figured out how to keep the divergence (width) extremely tight – tighter than the genral public knows. That is, when we shoot a laser at the moon, by the time it get there, the “dot of light” is extremely faint, as it’s about 120 miles wide. But if the point of origin is measured in feet instead of hundreds of thousands of miles, I’d imagine you could generate an unfocused blob, or simple geometric shape. 

As far as public knowledge goes, there are all kinds of technical and theoretical issues with doing this, but again, that’s why it’s “black.”

Additionally, notice that we have no evidence that there is any physical interaction going on. One of these “ojects” sweeps at thousands of miles an hour just feet above the surface of the ocean, at there is no wake nor disturbance of the water. The ONLY way the speed; the changes of direction; the lack of physical interaction can be photographed is if the object is massless – made of light.

No magic; no little green men; no violation of the laws of physics – just a clever black op. It’s the only explanation that actually makes sense, at least to me.

Just my two cents. 

(I have disabled comments on this because of the tin-hat crowd. I’m not interested in discussing it; merely wanted to get it out there.)
