Does GOFAST show anything anomalous?

Asked 26 Oct 2026 by ·Part of Is GIMBAL a rotating object or rotating glare?·3 answers·0·0 following
Answered: A slow object at about 13,000 feet whose apparent speed is parallax from the camera aircraft's motion.Passed its tests and review.

Where it stands

Three answers have been proposed. A slow object at about 13,000 feet whose apparent speed is parallax from the camera aircraft's motion. leads, with evidence 2 for, 1 against: supported by its tests. Two are still possible.

Why it matters

GOFAST was recorded on the same deployment as GIMBAL and released with it. It is the one video with an official resolution, and the resolution's method is published⁠[1].

History

  1. Trevithick puts forward: a fast, low object as the aircrew's exclamations suggest.
  2. Metabunk contributors: nASA's independent study team reached a similar result in May 2023 from the same public data.For: A slow object at about 13,000 feet whose apparent speed is parallax from the camera aircraft's motion.
  3. All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office: three independent analyses (Metabunk, NASA panel, AARO) converge on a slow object.Against: A fast, low object as the aircrew's exclamations suggest.
  4. All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office puts forward: a slow object at about 13,000 feet whose apparent speed is parallax from the camera aircraft's motion.
  5. All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office: the analysis rests on hand-read numbers from a compressed public copy; the original file was unavailable.Against: A slow object at about 13,000 feet whose apparent speed is parallax from the camera aircraft's motion.
  6. All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office: aARO's modelling across all headings gives 5 to 92 mph through the air at 3.4 to 4.0 nautical miles.For: A slow object at about 13,000 feet whose apparent speed is parallax from the camera aircraft's motion.
