Mystery Orbs Photographed Far From Humans

 At this page of the Coast to Coast web site, we have an interesting account of scientists who got images of what look like mysterious orbs. The images came from a trail camera set up in a remote part of Chile, for the purpose of scientifically studying wildlife. On the page we have a video, and at the 29 second mark we see the objects shown below, which seem like bright spheres.

We read this:

" 'Explaining that the camera was placed at the edge of a valley 'quite far from any public road,' biologist Alejandro Kush Schwarzenberg marveled that 'we cannot explain' the origin of the anomalous illuminations picked up by the device. To that end, the University of Magellan team has eliminated prosaic possibilities for the enigmatic lights, such as a vehicle or an animal, and is now pondering more fantastic possibilities. One idea, put forward by Chilean ufologist Freddy Alexis Silva, is that the illuminations may be some kind of plasma that mysteriously manifested in front of the camera.

Meanwhile, Environmental Study Group member Rodrigo Bravo Garrido noted that the unexplained phenomena being detected during a scientific study and recognized by academics at the university make the case 'something very unprecedented.' "

Contrary to Garrido's statement, innumerable times in the past there was "unexplained phenomena being detected during a scientific study and recognized by academics at the university," such as the many years in which the ESP experiments of Duke University Professor Joseph Rhine produced extremely convincing results for telepathy. The study of paranormal phenomena has now gone on for a full 200 years, with the first major organized effort being the 1825-1831 investigation of the medical division of the French Royal Academy of Sciences, which found resoundingly in favor of clairvoyance (as discussed here). But in general today's professors are utterly ignorant of the history of research into paranormal phenomena, and such people work in conformist echo chambers of academia in which the serious study of the paranormal is taboo, for the sake of protecting a materialist creed.  So we should remember never to attach any weight to any generalization a professor makes about psychical research or research into the paranormal, unless that professor shows some signs of having done substantial scholarship on such a topic.
