Bell Geospace to Conduct Surveys in Cornwall

Residents in Cornwall will notice a survey plane from Bell Geospace flying at an average altitude of 200 meters this December. The plane will collect geological data to aid in mapping underground rock properties, focusing on potential geothermal energy and lithium mining in the region. Meanwhile, concerns have arisen in the U.S. regarding unidentified flying objects, including drones, with reports of mysterious nighttime flights causing confusion among residents and officials. Experts emphasize the difficulty in distinguishing between drones, planes, and helicopters at night, especially given their differing light patterns and sounds. The situation has been particularly sensitive near military facilities, raising alarm over potential security implications. As the survey in Cornwall proceeds, residents are being informed about the flights to mitigate concerns.
