Re: How can you tell?

A plane travelling at 500mph moves 733 feet/sec. The average video camera takes at least 24 pictures/second. That is a picture every 30.5 ft of travel. There should be a clearly visible plane in those videos.
Want to explain how you can look at that video and think that it's running at 24 frames a second ?

Re: How can you tell?

Obviously it is not. In fact it is running at a rate below the average CCTV camera that one would expect to find anywhere else in the world.
I think that that would depend on the purpose of the camera. Certainly I've seen equally jerky footage from CCTV cameras.
If the point of the camera is to monitor cars coming into the base - which it does seem to be - then a lower frame rate might be acceptable (and appears to be adequate from the footage seen).
And let's not forget storage requirements.
More to the point, the plane does seem to be visible on one frame, although blurred by speed and out of focus and I can't see any reason to expect it to be more visible than it is on this footage. Simple incredulity that the video system might be the way that it seems to be doesn't really negate the fact that it shows pretty much all we should expect it to show.

Edit Yes it is ten yrs later but still, one is the pentagon and the other is a loading dock down by the river.
I can't see anything about the source of the video other than it was released by the Mayor's office.
Storage capacity has increased quite dramatically in that time, so a higher frame rate is much easier to support. And that's just dealing with the knowns - there could easily be unknown factors.

Re: Here is a Conspiracy Theory from the Secular Humanist Website
quote:
Take the Marthas Vineyard fiasco (and political stunt, in my opinion) Several "theys" are mentioned in media that Ive listened to. According to our conservative loudmouth Tucker Carlson, the enslaved ones are the "poor immigrants who are now under police control. He accuses "they"...the wealthy liberals on Martha Vineyard, of calling in the army to get them out of town. Of course, Tucker represents conservatism.
Tucker Carlson is so dishonest his own employers won’t call his product “news”..Martha’s Vineyard is a resort, which doesn’t ave the facilities to handle immigrants. The people who live and work there aren’t rich. But they helped the poor immigrants. And the defrauded immigrants got taken to places which can support them better.
quote:
WHO sent these aliens to Martha Vineyard? Was it simply a political stunt?
Ron DiSantis, Republican Governor of Florida. But he got them from Texas. And fraudulently convinced them to go to Martha’s Vineyard.
