    Interesting topic. However I still like 3D movies. Thinks can get bigger if the glaces get like normal glaces. Or if more dimensions are projected, like feel and smell. Or interactive movies where you are a part of the movie, a kind of advanced gaming. Other thinks that are interesting is design. You can see directly how new furniture looks like at home, or a new garden design. I saw once at a technical event a version of kitchen designs where you could choose from.

    Neither tumbling nor flat shape of Oumuamua are observed facts, I don't know how scientists are so frivolous about this. The only actual observation was the brightness change, every 8 hours. The tumbling and the cigar shape - are all conjecture. How about - "it was a very bright object that also kept changing brightness"?

  • @azzzzr

    While searching for signs of extraterrestrial life is a worthy scientific endeavor, we must proceed with great caution and discernment. The Allies of Humanity warn that not all alien contact may be benevolent, and that a clandestine intervention is already underway by certain ET groups seeking to exploit Earth's resources and manipulate humanity. They explain that promises of alien technology are being used to persuade influential leaders to cooperate with the intervention's agenda, often without public awareness. "To those in the corridors of power in your governments, those individuals who are deemed receptive and cooperative, the promise of greater technology and even world dominion will be presented.", the Allies say. Furthermore, the Allies contend that the intervenors are covertly influencing human conflicts, religious extremism and nationalism to weaken and divide us. While some governments have made agreements with these alien groups in exchange for technology, it has opened the door to a very dangerous intrusion according to the briefings. This is an extremely serious matter if true. As the Allies state, "There are no neutral parties in this matter. The world is far too valuable, its resources recognized as being unique and of considerable worth." Key to navigating this complex situation is developing our discernment, inner knowledge and learning about the realities of life in the Greater Community. We are unprepared for this great threshold as a divided, distracted and uninformed race. The Allies emphasize that our freedom and sovereignty could be lost if we are not vigilant, as "All of your accomplishments would be given to your new governors; all of your wealth would be bestowed upon them." So, while I commend your courageous scientific investigations, the information in these briefings must be considered with an open but critical mind. If accurate, spreading awareness of the ET interference and strengthening human unity and discernment are crucial, as our future and freedom are at stake. Blindly welcoming alien contact without wisdom could lead to disastrous outcomes for our world. I encourage all to study this material carefully, use your inner resonance as a guide, and engage this historic challenge facing humanity with great sobriety and responsibility. Our response will determine the future and fate of our race.

      @@realsydney7327 Your first remark was a fallacious appeal to ignorance. You conclude that life external to Earth is not possible because it hasn't been proven conclusively true. Loeb's arguments are largely probabilistic based on possible interpretations of accepted evidence. That doesn't make them true, but he is a scientist hypothesizing and looking for additional evidence. Your second response is also fallacious reasoning. You cannot conclude that absence of evidence is evidence of absence.

Properly adjusted, to match the naked eye's view there was the sensation of 3D but only when the image moved. This suggested to me that the slight time delay through camcorder to the one eye caused the effect.
