Video: Laser-guided Uav(s) Hit Tower(s)?, thus the flash prior to impact, merged Options

I should have been more clear before. Do we have legally-binding traceability and specifications on that video and the camera equipment actually used?

I think lunk technically meant a silicon Charge Coupled Device (CCD):

Of course I'm personally nearing that "classified" "national security" neighborhood now, but feel free to discuss amongst yourselves. [I'm not really interested in moving to GITMO or Ft. Leavenworth KS (IMG:http://pilotsfor911truth.org/forum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ]

Also I believe that lunk's dotted spectrum for the human eye peaks somewhere in the yellow (kinda like our yellow sun strangely enough), but I don't recall the precise wavelength.

EDIT: One more question- why don't more WTC videos show the IR targeting dots? [Oh gawwwddd, here comes my "favorite" word "fakery." (IMG:http://pilotsfor911truth.org/forum/style_emoticons/default/doh1.gif) ]

Also I believe that lunk's dotted spectrum for the human eye peaks somewhere in the yellow (kinda like our yellow sun strangely enough), but I don't recall the precise wavelength.

The spectral sensitivity distribution diagram that lunk posted is for a non-filtered CCD sensor, and as we see it is very sensitive at the red end of the visible electromagnetic spectrum. As that statement implies the CCD sensor in digital cameras is filtered to avoid such bias else images would have reds burned out – as could happen with a specialist Extended-Panchromatic film. Some of us are old enough to recall using both Panchromatic and Orthochromatic emulsion films, the latter not being at all sensitive to reds which reproduced as dark tones instead of the mid-tones of Panchromatic images and thus did not look natural.

This is not to say that infra-red would not register on a CCD device. Photographic sensors are now more often CMOS based devices but back in 2001 these were not so common.

As for the spectral sensitivity of the human eye, these may help:
