  • Wiki PURSUE Release 07 batch: The seventh PURSUE release: the Catalina Island reports and the Air Intelligence Information Report form, the 1962 to 1964 file on space vehicle fragments, the BAASS project plan, monthly reports, Utah ranch investigation and capability report, Project Northern Tier, and the 2026 triangle over a ridge. H. M. McCoy's entry adds his personnel file, and each Release 07 briefing links its wiki entries
  • Wiki Submerged Egg batch: The case behind the Submerged Egg Buoyancy Bench and the same pilot's second sighting, the BAASS special reports they come from, and the questions the bench prices: neutral buoyancy and Secchi depth

31 October 2026

  • UAP Files PURSUE Release 07: Briefings on the Department of War's seventh PURSUE release, published on 23 October: Catalina Island files of 1949 to 1955 and Air Force field reports of the 1950s, the personnel file of Howard M. McCoy, a space council file of 1962 to 1964 on who takes the fragments, the BAASS records of 2008 to 2010 with the Utah ranch investigation report and a capability report, and a 2026 sighting of a triangle in an AARO debrief and an FBI FD-302
  • Instrument The Scorched Cap Bench: A cap from West Palm Beach priced by the geometry inside one laboratory sentence: the FBI Laboratory's report of 3 September 1952 (D105 pp. 176 to 177) says the singeing on the bill and the emblem is 'not at all uniform' and writes that 'the front edge of the cap bill is more severely scorched or singed than other portions of the cap', which suggests the singeing could not have taken place under fire from 'a position almost vertically above' (p. 176), and that the absence of singeing under a fold suggests the possibility that the cap was not being worn (p. 177); the bench lights the cap's four faces from one far source by the Lambert cosine law: at 85°, its reading of 'almost vertically above', the bill's front edge receives 0.0 % of normal incidence, the bill top and the crown top 99.6 % and the emblem 42.3 %; with the bill tilted 10° the edge and the bill top are equal at 35.0°, and the edge reaches the emblem's share only below 5.0°; the Cap, the Ledger and the File, and the bench prices the geometry inside one sentence and rules on nothing

  • Instrument The Orbs Launching Orbs Bench: The Western US Event's orbs priced on the record's own figures: the Release 01 deck says six federal law enforcement special agents, at dusk on two separate days, describe seeing orange orbs emit or launch smaller red ones 'in groups of two to four', 'at least five times' (p. 1), and puts a glowing orange orb at 'approximately 500-600 meters' by the witnesses' estimate and '~1050 meters' away and 'between 12-18 meters in diameter' by AARO's assessment (p. 2); Witness 1 writes '20 feet or more in diameter' (D079 p. 1); the witnesses' pair is 0.699° to 0.582° and AARO's 0.655° to 0.982°, one angle of about 0.65 to 0.70° read with two rulers, and AARO's pair is 1.26 to 1.90 mean Moons; AARO's analysis update (D077) says the agents described a red orb 'remaining stationary above a ridgeline for several hours' (p. 1), which the bench sets beside the LUU-2's specified 240 to 300 s at 2.5 m/s, 2.38 mrad/s across the sky at 1,050 m, and the M206's 2.7 s; it says it cannot determine whether the reported silence 'corresponds to an inherent characteristic or to acoustic attenuation' (p. 2), which the bench prices as 68.4 dB of spreading over the ground at 1,050 m, so that against the Great Sand Dunes night's 15.0 dBA the most the silence allows is 83.4 dB of sound power; the Dusk, the Ledger, the Flare, the Silence and the File, and the bench does not say what the orbs were
  • Front page The Bell Frame-Drag Bench: Rotation: the Bell Frame-Drag Bench takes the flagship slot beside the Red Coast Link Budget, the Submerged Egg Buoyancy Bench and the Sphinx Erosion Bench; Tremonton, Trans-Medium, Radiation Dose and Hollow Moon return to the shelves

17 October 2026

  • Instrument The Trisolaris Bench: The Three-Body Problem's Trisolaris priced against the real Alpha Centauri: the novel puts a planet of three suns 'about four light-years away' (ch. 20), its flying stars (ch. 15), its forty-eight-year night of three snows (ch. 7), its syzygy and its human-formation computer (ch. 17); a Sun-sized star becomes a point at 31.97 AU, still 423 times the mean full Moon; on a 10 AU Lagrange triangle a planet 1 AU from A sees 8 Stable Eras, the longest 234 years, 77.7 percent of its time stable, and is ejected at 304.5 years; a tide reaches g only inside a star's Roche limit; forty-eight years give 58.47 m of ice and a surface at 103.9 K, two snows of the three, nitrogen needing about 3,040 years; the formation runs the two-year forecast in 6.667 months against the novel's fourteen; the horizon is 64.65 years at τ 8.472 yr, and the real stars' finite-time Lyapunov figure 143 years; the Sky, the Orbits, the Tides, the Forecast, the Night and the File, the bench pricing the sentences and grading no book

  • Site ’Oumuamua: The channel's tenth video, 'Oumuamua: I Flew the First Interstellar Visitor's Real Orbit Beside a Twin With Only Gravity, plays on this bench's page

14 October 2026

  • Site ’Oumuamua: The ’Oumuamua bench's push switch now works: off, the body flies the gravity-only orbit and the offset readout stands down. New story chapters follow the names the object was given, the radio searches, the positions to Hubble's last look and what the push costs in mass, and the Orbit view can draw 2I/Borisov and 3I/ATLAS beside 1I from JPL's elements

11 October 2026

  • Instrument The Metric Appearance Bench: D132's Table 1 priced as two dials and a tie: the paper tabulates (p. 9) how processes inside an altered spacetime appear to a remote observer, in a 'Typical Stellar Mass' column and a 'Spacetime-Engineered Metric' column, and writes that outside sounds 'could under these conditions redshift below the auditory range' (p. 12), that 'a brightening of luminosity' could come from 'the heat spectrum blueshifting up into the visible portion of the spectrum' (p. 12), that 'a large craft with a spacious interior' could appear 'relatively small' (p. 13), and that a sudden 'cloaking' or 'blinking out' 'would at least be consistent with strong gravitational lensing effects' (p. 14); D128 (p. 14) lists 'microwave, visible, UV, soft X-rays'; a 300 K hull's peak sits between 750 and 380 nm from √g₀₀ = 12.88 to 25.42, and at 17.56 the hull reads as 5,269 K at 308 times its own power, the 10 m craft 175.6 m across with the tie; at 1,000 the top of the hearing range arrives at 20 Hz inside, its floor and the peak reaches 9.659 nm, in soft X-rays; 'relatively small' sits in the other column, √(−g₁₁) = 10 for 10 m reading as 1 m; a point mass at the craft's centre seen from 100 m puts its Einstein ring on the rim at 14.09 Earth masses, and at 1.774 Jupiter masses its Schwarzschild radius is the craft's own 5 m; D139's Equation (9) (p. 30) prices a wormhole throat at 0.7094 Jupiter masses per metre of width (it prints 0.71), a mass it writes 'is not the total mass of the wormhole as seen by remote observers'; the Range, the Ear, the Spectrum, the Lens, the Ladder and the File, and the bench rules on no craft and on no paper

  • Instrument The Silent Hover Bench: Future Visions' Georgia and Niagara hovers priced with the craft's mass made a dial: in north Georgia, the book says (p. 134), Jones put a triangle 'about 300 feet in length' at '60 to a few hundred feet above him', and 'It made no sound'; in Niagara Falls, Ontario, an object was reported 'hovering silently in the same position for five hours' (p. 124); at the default mass, the B-2's weight per square metre of wing on that planform, 549.7 t, the lawn at 60 ft takes 49.3 m/s, Saffir-Simpson Category 2, for an ideal power of 133.0 MW, and the level at the witness is 122.9 dB against a 70 dB ambient at the efficiency read from the FAA's 1984 BV-234 flyover; at Niagara's 1,000 ft a craft of the same size takes 134.9 MW, 50.0 m/s, Category 3, 98.5 dB, and five hours of it is 674,301 kWh, 196.9 t of fuel at the T64's rate or 2,697 t of battery at 250 Wh/kg; at the Zeppelin NT's gross 10,690 kg the lawn takes 6.9 m/s, force 4, a moderate breeze; floated by helium the default needs 493,454 m³, a slab 136.3 m deep over the planform; the Yard puts the full Moon of the text's night about 28° up in the south-southeast over north Georgia's latitude band, sixteen minutes before full by the USNO table, reading the book's 11:45 p.m. (p. 133) as Eastern Daylight Time, with the slab's shadow on part of the lawn, where it falls depending on how the yard faced, which the book does not say; the Yard, the Downwash, the Sound, the Hours, the Gas and the File, and the bench does not say what the craft was

7 October 2026

  • Site Washington 1952: The Washington 1952 bench quotes its record more closely: the soundings as the CAA's 1953 table prints them, 3° and 1° with no scale given, and the judgement that they were too weak credited to Ruppelt; General Samford's 'a possibility' and, later, 'probable' from the press conference minutes; both nights told from Ruppelt's chapter. Its Textbook duct now sits on the ground, so the rays reach the scope's edge, where the clutter map now runs out to places the 1952 record names, and the night map lines up with its landmarks

6 October 2026

  • Instrument The Flying Blade Cut Bench: Operation Guzheng from The Three-Body Problem run on the book's own numbers: fifty filaments one-hundredth of a hair thick (0.75 µm on the page's nominal hair) across the Gaillard Cut, half a metre apart on twenty-four-metre pillars, and a sixty-thousand-ton Panamax ship through them at the same speed; parting a 16 mm plate costs 2.88 N at the shear floor and 14,800 N at the fracture ceiling, two bounds printed side by side; for the cut to run within a metre of the pillars a filament strung across 160 m carries 92 N, 2.1 × 10¹⁴ Pa, 2,081 times the 100 GPa measured on carbon nanotubes, and 33 times folded fully back; twenty-five planes through the hull drag 258 N against 461 kN of thrust at 8 knots at the floor and 1.32 MN at ship steel's measured fracture energy; fifty planes make 51 slices through 25 m of ship; the Cut, the Filament, the Ship and the File, two readings at equal size, no ruling on the book

  • Instrument The Pais Patent Gravitational-Wave Bench: The Navy's gravitational-wave generator patent (US 10,322,827) run on its own three figures, 10³³ W/m² in, 10¹⁰ T, 10¹⁰ W out, through its own equation in both unit systems (as written the figure comes back from its inputs; as the report it cites evaluates the expression, 10⁷ more), each input set beside a measured record (45.5 T, 1,200 T, a petawatt laser's focus, the magnetars), and ten gigawatts put on LIGO's design curve: at the patent's own 151 MHz 3 × 10⁻²⁸ at Livingston and out of band, at 100 Hz 4.5 × 10⁻²² and heard in 0.005 s; a one-tonne disc of the craft patent's size by the quadrupole formula 34 orders under the patent's figure; the report's and the patent's sentences at equal size, no ruling on the device
  • Instrument The Big Sur Tracking-Film Bench: An Atlas filmed from a fire trail 3,400 ft up near Anderson Peak in September 1964 through the Boston University image-orthicon telescope, 183 km from the pad, with the range made a dial: the arc to Kwajalein and the line from the peak, the Sun at each of the log's two Atlas D launches (+18.8° on the 15th, −9.8° on the 22nd); on 875 lines at 720 in the Mark 4 reentry vehicle spans 2.7 lines at 500 mi, George 1993's 'between two and three', and the tank 24.9, his 2009 'twenty-four'; Johnson's recognition band needs 9.8 m there; a circuit of ten lines round in two seconds costs 12.3 g; Jacobs, Mansmann and George quoted at equal size, no ruling on what the object was
  • Instrument The Lubbock Thirty Degrees a Second Bench: A formation of lights timed across a Lubbock sky in August 1951 at 30 degrees per second, the one measurement on the record, with the height made a dial: a 60 mph duck sits at 168 ft by the rate overhead, 132 ft on the 45° to 45° arc Ruppelt's 1956 book gives, 102 ft on Hart's 120° in four seconds, and the speaker's 75 to 80 ft needs an arc from about 21°; Ruppelt's 10,000 ft is 3,570 mph; Hart's negatives, a little denser than a bright planet's, ask a light at 132 ft for 0.026 to 0.152 cd, and a duck's underside under 2 lux of city light gives back a point of magnitude +0.7; the real stars of the night over the yard, the Kodak 35's frame and its smear, the transcript and the book quoted as printed, no ruling on what the lights were
  • Site The Younger Dryas Impact Ledger: The channel's fourth video, Did a Comet Bring the Ice Age Back? I Built the Impactor, and It Can't Do All Five, plays on this bench's page
