Computer Analysis and Enhancement of Turkey's 2008 UFO Video

The 2008 UFO video shot by Yalcin Yalman in Turkey is remarkable in its length and details. You can read about Yalcin Yalman and his video in the following Irish Times article:

In my video, I analyze some part of the video using medical imaging processing techniques. The main image processing program is ImageJ, a java based image processing program. ImageJ is used for medical, scientific and astronomical image processing. It is available for free at this link:

I use ImageJ to stabilize the jumpy image then to remove the noise and focus the image in order to get a very detailed still picture of the UFO.
An interesting aspect of the Turkish video, which is shot over several days, is that the UFO appears slightly different in shape and brightness over the days that the video was shot. But the most amazing part of the video is the day the UFO shift shapes.
I tried to stabilize the shift shaping clip which extremely jumpy in order to get an idea of what is happening. After carefully looking at the processed frames one by one, I concluded that the UFO is actually MORPHING shape. It is as if the UFO skin is rubbery and plastic. But my opinion is that the UFO could exist in higher dimensions and changes shape as it passes through our dimension.

A very interesting book to read about travelling into higher dimensions is flatland:

Yep, its just rotating from a profile to what looks to be the front.

it didn't change shapes...it did a 90 degree tilt towards the camera...dude failed explaining that part. :P

The video length is simply differnt days pasted together, so just as well could be different tapes which were used. Not saying much. But I do agree on the validation, I too find this a odd video. However, any type of spaceship shape known in 1998 was not anywhere near this. The 'shapeshift' looks to me more like a attempt to communicate with lights, it never actually shapeshifted at all. Look into the see there, it may hold a clue or answer.

@OMGMANTHEHARPOONS And, following up on my last comment: What "Turkish customs are the same"? You speak against generalizations and in the same breath utter one. Be consistent. No, not a tradition to flip out over a UFO but certainly Turks, collective and sensationalist as they are, would make a huge deal out of seeing a UFO. I've given my view, you don't have to agree. But from what I see, you have no relevant experience, no credentials and no consistency to your arguments. Siktir git lan ..

@OMGMANTHEHARPOONS How do you KNOW that you cannot predict that behavior? You don't, you are just speculating. Of course there are exceptions to every generality: some blacks can't dance well, some Italians don't talk with animated hand gestures and not all Australians suffer from a well-deserved inferiority complex. But most do. Yalman did not view it alone, he was with several friends. I understand their speech and tones of voice and, by the way, their culture. Clearly, you don't.

this seems real

[OMGMANTHEHARPOONS]

@crater14 Perhaps this Turkish man was Westernised, or perhaps he and his friends were just calm individuals.

My point is that no, you cannot predict that sort of behaviour with a 'high degree of certainty', unless you personally know the individual/s yourself.

You may be able to predict which way you run when there's a fire,

but no, not all Turks are the same.

Turkish customs are the same, and I don't think it's been tradition to flip out and go crazy over a UFO in Turkey for hundreds of years.

@OMGMANTHEHARPOONS So, following up on my last comment: I simply stated that Turks would react in a frantic manner and alert everyone. This I stand by. I know this because I've lived in Turkey for 10 years and my best friends are Turks. I've also lived in Hong Kong, Ukraine, Cyprus and America. So I am able to see differences of which you may not be aware. Turks themselves joke about their cultural traits, the way they might react to certain things. What is your expertise in this matter?

[crater14]

@OMGMANTHEHARPOONS I have a PhD in consumer research from a good school, I've done cross-cultural research and published in international journals. What have you done? Nothing, I'm sure, except speculate and try to use big words. Behavior can certainly be predicted with a high degree of certainty; a hundred years of science support this. And "a reaction to an event" is a behavior. I never said it was a personality trait or a value, nor did I claim to know everything about human psychology.

[OMGMANTHEHARPOONS]

@crater14 I do believe your ignorance is venturing beyond the veil into the land of blind naivety. No persons actions can be predicted or judged based on his background, country of residence or otherwise.

People are people and you my friend, do not know everything there is to know about human psychology because you've "read a book or two", lived in Turkey, are familiar with the work of Geert Hofstede.

A reaction to an event is neither a personality trait nor a value either.

Educate yourself.
