Nuclear physicist Stanton Friedman has devoted more than 50 years to pursuing the scientific truth of UFOs, and was the original civilian investigator of the legendary 1947 Roswell, N.M., incident.

One of the best UFO pictures ever taken, this object was photographed by Paul Trent over his McMinnville, Ore., farm in May 1950. A subsequent Air Force investigation determined that "an extraordinary flying object, silvery, metallic, disk-shaped, tens of meters in diameter and evidently artificial, flew within sight of two eyewitnesses."

Yeah, actually they are.

How did UFOs not catch his attention until 1958 if he investigated Roswell in 1947?

Stanton Friedman does have some good work but his beliefs about Reptilian shape shifters occupying high levels of government and society are a little... peculiar.

Unfortunately, the whole phoney field of “Ufology” is so littered with crackpots churning out obviously fake photos and videos that it’s impossible to tell what’s real. It makes me question the validity of every single UFO report ever made. And I’ve actually seen one.

To find out that human beings are alien hybrids, that there is no ‘eternal bliss or damnation’, would turn the planet into a gory, murderous landscape.

Especially if it came at a time when the world’s economies are all insolvent, and basic taken-for-granted comforts were suddenly interrupted.

Lawlessness.

Four companies, 14 years? Couldn't hold a job long could he?

There are many strange UFO events, but so far not a shred of solid evidence to substantiate alien visitation.

So much in heaven and on earth that we cannot see, hear, touch, smell or taste - but we know we don’t know.

That’s gotta count;)

It may well be that those are indeed alien vehicles. I don't oppose (or support) this idea. It's just one of those possibilities. There is no reason why there can't be life somewhere else and there is no reason why that life can't observe us.

What's important here is simply the fact that those observations do not matter. Once we admit that aliens may exist, their presence is irrelevant - until they choose to make a contact and shower us with gifts of science and technology. They'd be fools to do that to us today. Humanity is split into thousands of warring tribes, and any gift of science will be used as a weapon in a millisecond.

So in my opinion continued observations of UFOs carry no information (in terms of Claude Shannon.) As long as they take care to not crash into our airplanes and other objects, they are welcome to observe. We can't compel them to reveal themselves, so we just need to accept their presence (if they do exist; if not, then there is nothing to talk about.)

why would reputable scientists refuse to consider that
Earth may be a vacation spot for otherworldly travelers?

"Beats me!"

Dunno if you can get a copy, but if so, check out a movie titled Unidentified Flying Objects: The True Story of Flying Saucers" or simply "UFO". - a pretty straight-forward look at the phenomena ca 1955.

This was from a time when the govt was pretty open about these things and when a commercial airline pilot could talk about what he saw without being fired. It has two films of unknowns and uses a lot of the real people inviolved.

One great line: "Credible people seeing incredible things."

Friedman, I think, was hoodwinked on Roswell. A good debunking book about that incident, with a "fool you" title: The Roswell Ufo Crash: What They Don't Want You to Know
