During a remarkable congressional hearing, former American intelligence official David Grusch revealed that the US government conducted a "multi-decade" programme aimed at collecting and reverse-engineering crashed unidentified flying objects (UFOs).
Grusch, who was in charge of investigating unexp...
Presented with a completely deadpan face by Jonathan Frakes from Star Trek: TNG, I thought at the time just what a coincidence it was that this "bold" bit of "journalism" came out at precisely a time when Hollywood had developed its' makeup and prostheses technology enough to make a visually believable fake video on the subject.
A very large coincidence indeed. Wouldn't you say?
And so it always is and has been with this subject and the people that swirl around t.
A fraction of Anonymous apparently hacked into secret NASA servers and obtained massive amount of documents containing UPOs and UFOs. Soon to be revealed.
I just... Don't believe it. I generally believe there is more going on than nothing but if the US had a spaceship with an alien body then we are really fucking bad at capitalizing on that technology, past the point of believability.
I believe aliens exist, somewhere in the universe. Statistically it seems inevitable, I just don't believe they've visited earth or even know we exist, just like we don't know they exist. You can sit on something like that, there would be much better evidence than grainy fake looking videos and second hand accounts.
Earth is a very early stable planet, I'm sure there will be lots more species in the coming billions of years. We might even be the most advanced civilization in the galaxy. But we'll probably never contact anyone else, best we do is notice signs of life on a distant planet.
Or the universe is a dark forest, where civilizations that reveal themselves get snuffed out by more advanced civilizations so they can't pose a threat in the future.
I know this sounds kinda kooky but personally my (completely no basis) guess is that UFOs (in the most convincing video evidence) are some kind of natural phenomenon that exists partially outside of our understanding of physics. If they have some sort of intelligence and they aren't just random noise, I think they would be so different from us as to be utterly unparsable. If all that is true and they interact with us, their motivations would be similarly unknowable.
I'm depressingly not convinced faster than light travel will ever be possible, especially for humans or human-like organisms...
I'm very interested in them though. I'm very hopeful that studying them seriously might lead to some incredible insights about physics.
We're really bad at a lot of things, despite what we have achieved. Just because you have a piece of material doesn't mean you can just recreate it. It's like Newton being handed a CPU. He may even be able to look at the nanoscale structures but he sure as shit can't recreate it. We're simply that far behind.
The other day I heard a great line somewhere: Consider how humans and apes share almost 99% of their DNA. You'll still have a tough time trying to explain the stock market to them.
It kinda sounded that people have gotten badly injured trying to reverse engineer this tech. Maybe its simply impossible with our current knowledge. Similar to that native village that build fake planes, fake air-towers and fake headsets after a visit from the modern world.
There was a theory i read a while ago based on some whistleblower reports that pilot and ship where one entity somehow and that the pilot was able to control things inside the ship from wherever they are. Same report also mentioned that spacetime works differently inside and is bigger similar to a Tardis.
I don’t believe this is all true, but if the truth is even slightly similar it comes as no surprise that we have not yet figured out how to replicate it.
Bruh. Literally thousands of studies out there demonstrate the principle of evolution. You need only look at dog breeding or crop breeding to see it in action, albeit human induced instead of natural.
We dont believe in evolution because one guy said it was true. And dont give me that 'hurr durr but Darwin said it was true' nonsense. He did (as did other contemporaries of his time) but it wasnt accepted until overwhelming evidence from countless observations and studies made it obvious.
Now lets look at this situation. One guy says he heard the government has non human remains. Not exactly the analogy you thought you were making.
And Ill cut this off at the pass because the next argument I always hear usually boils down to 'we can only know what we see' which is basically a solopsist argument. Which is self defeating because then you absolutely cant argue there's merit to this guy's testimony because you cant be sure of anything.
Good to see AOC asking decent questions, and the non partisan nature of the hearing was really interesting. No political point scoring whatsoever except for one republican at the start.
That just makes it so much harder to belive for me, aliens literally raining down all over the earth but somehow despite not being able to agree on literally anything ever it's just standard procedure for every country in the world to do a perfect cover up of such a hugely significant thing?
Nah see that's the "best" part. Supposedly, the UFO crashed into Fascist Italy in the 1930s and the Vatican, of all things, found out and back-channeled the information to the US, and the US only, for whatever reason. It then apparently just chilled in Mussolinis lockbox for a decade until the US supposedly retrieved the craft in 1945 after wars end.
This is some Indiana Jones shit. Ark of the Covenant whistleblower, where you at?
