When it comes to the physics of propulsion systems, the majority trusts Elon Musk. In 2021 “Strongest argument against aliens” tweet Elon Musk pointed out that UFO images’ quality was constantly poor for decades despite significant progress in cameras’ resolution:
But if check the underlying physics around UFOs, then it becomes clear why those images should be fuzzy:
- By Einstein, gravity is just a gradient in time dilation (and nothing else). For example, time flow near the Earth is at about one billionth rate slower than away from it, and such time difference (called time dilation) weighs a lot to us.
- Since UFO propulsion is about gravity manipulation (Elon does not question that) — UFOs have time dilation around a craft.
- And time dilation causes light refraction (by Snell’s law, explained on page 6 of Time Matters). That is the reason for the unimprovable quality of images. Actually, sharp UFO images are fake.
