## Where it stands

**Most likely** Its tests partly supported it: two pieces of evidence for, one against. It needs two reviews to be accepted.

## What it predicts

- Every well-documented case matches a known source when checked against traffic, flight logs and ephemerides.
- Reports fall as public attention falls.

## What would rule it out

- A triangulated, close-range light with no candidate source, recorded by independent instruments.
