His Go Fast analysis used parallax and found an object moving at about 30 m/s near 13,000 to 15,000 ft, consistent with a balloon or bird; he says the point was the method, and 'I can't say it wasn't NHI'.Gimbal & GoFastReality Check: Dr Randy Bostick, former AARO science adviser, on deleted data and GremlinanalysisSourced, unconfirmedRandy Bostick
At AARO the most significant material was oral reports of orbs and black triangles. In New Jersey drones were involved, amplified by sky-watchers. AARO is a collector and adjudicator, 'not the owner' of secrets, and redactions could be relative rather than absolute (for example, giving positions from zero).Reality Check: Dr Randy Bostick, former AARO science adviser, on deleted data and GremlinAAROfirsthandSourced, unconfirmedRandy Bostick
