Using decades-old astronomical data from the POSS-I sky survey and the VASCO project, the team scanned hundreds of thousands of photographic plates for transient light events—bright flashes in the sky that appear once and vanish, with no apparent natural or known technological cause. On most nights, these events were sparse. But on days aligned with known above-ground nuclear tests, the numbers skyrocketed.
“One particular day saw an incredible 4,528 transient detections across the night sky,” the researchers note in the preprint report.
While no definitive claim of “extraterrestrial craft” is made, the statistical anomaly is striking—and has fueled speculation in the UFO community that advanced, unknown observers may be monitoring humanity’s nuclear experimentation....<<<Read More>>>...
