UFO Pendulum Motion.

[Karl12]

Mimicking nature is doing physics in the most efficient form, there is no errors involved. It's computerized flight with high pression, the craft isn't steered as much as directed to perform an action. So a declarative system.

Thanks for the post mate and your input is most welcome, have come across quite a bit of speculation about the physics behind the motion - whether it's an aspect of technology propulsion, a use of natural magnetic/gravity fields, a misinterpretation of something else (like a spiral) from the observer's perspective etc.

Don't know what's going on really but looks like scientific conjecture about UFO flight characteristics goes way back into history - here's 'the father of modern rocketry' Professor Hermann Oberth discussing it back in the early fifties (interesting to note he was also 'mentor' to NASA Nazi Dr. Werner von Braun).

• "The appearances are usually described as disks, sometimes as balls or ellipsoids. It sometimes happens that these disks place one upon the other, the largest in the center, the smaller toward the ends, to form an object the shape of a cigar, which then flies away with high speed. Sometimes one already saw such a cigar (UFO) stopping and untie into separate disks. The disks always fly in a manner as if the drive is acting perpendicular to the plane of the disk; when they are suspended over a certain terrain they keep horizontal; when they want to fly very quick, they tilt (tip) and fly with the plane directed forward. In sunlight, which is brighter than their own gleaming, they appear glittering like metal. They are dark orange and cherry red at night, if there is not much power necessary for the particular movement, for instance, when they are suspended calm. Then, they also do not shine very much. If more driving power is necessary, the shining increases (brightens) and they appear yellow, yellow-green, green like a copper flame and in a state of highest speed or acceleration extremely white. Sometimes they suddenly blink or extinguish.Their speed is sometimes very high, 19 km/sec has been measured with wireless measuring instruments (radar). Accelerations are so high that no man could stand it; he would be pressed to the wall and bruised. The accuracy of such measurements has not been doubted. If there would be only 3 or 4 measurements, I would not rely upon them and would wait for further measurements, but there is existing more than 50 such measurements; the wireless sets (radar) of the American Air Force and Navy, which are used in all fighters, cannot be so inaccurate that the information obtained with them can be doubted completely".
