Kevin Knuth, Chris Lehto. iheart.com. August 27, 2026.
Knuth recounts military missile stories heard from a professor and a relative, qualifies the camera assumption in a FLIR calculation, and describes sonar data he says he received from an unnamed operator. The original records are absent and some remembered numbers conflict. Nongovernment research invitations, natural-orb possibilities and perceptual explanations remain distinct from evidence of classified access.
