The Falcon Project - Launching Spring '2015

[Guest OntarioSquatch]

The Falcon Project sounds promising. I don't think anything like it has been done outside government operations. Can't wait

You'll have to wait Ontario, it didn't get the funding it needed to start.

Less that 5% of it in fact.

I think it sounds like a great project and I really hope that nothing goes wrong to screw it all up. The only thing I dont like is this (taken from that link)

Its camera output will be streamed live on the internet, although there will be a “kill switch†in the command center – should a Bigfoot be spotted, viewers will only see the first few seconds, with the rest of the footage being saved for a planned educational documentary for the public.

.....Aw thats not fair and is just asking for sceptics to pull apart the footage on the grounds of it being tampered with etc at a later date

Hi Bobby,

Where did you come across that?

[Guest]

I got an email. It was letting me know, my donation was refunded.

[Cotter]

^That sux....

[Guest OntarioSquatch]

I heard they have more sources to get the funding from.

[BobbyO]

It looks like, per the Kickstarter page, they have failed to reach their funding goal. They generated only $11,865 in towards their $355,000 goal.

Here Cotter.

Wow. Did the email confirm that the project was cancelled or delayed enough that they could not keep your donation? i had considered sending them a little as well...

[Cotter]

Thx Bobby, I missed that post....

[Guest]

The email said that it did not meet its funding goal by the project deadline. It did not say anything about the status of the project.

Why is flying up to 7500 feet such an important detail?

Higher altitudes also less likely to “spook†wildlife.

Being on the board of advisors, specifically helping with image analysis, I had suggested that some catalogue of thermal image signatures of known species and entities be assembled to then compare with an "unknown" the project may record in field service. Jeff concurred, saying he'd also envisioned that, as part of the initial test phase. So one of the fur costumes I made for my recent research will be tested as well, with a person wearing it at night and the craft tracking the subject above, to get reference thermal signatures of a person in costume who might try to "hoax" the project and see if we are fooled into thinking we've got a real sasquatch thermal image.

That will be one of my contributions to the project, so there is data to identify a hoaxed biologic in a fur costume,if somebody knows the craft is flying in their area and thinks they can fake a sighting and then boast about fooling the project image analysts..

This is the latest description of the project and members ^

 

Looks like our own nathanfooter is onboard which would be as good a reason as not for saying he was heading for the PNW.
