My point exactly. Nobody was able to confirm it was the same object. Just that the object that was lost to the hornet went blank and it, or another one, showed up miles away. So, why couldn’t it be two separate objects one being seen, going off the radar, and another getting pinged miles away if they came out of stealth?

The Russians have had technology to not only scramble radio and radar from back in my Alaska days, mid 80’s, they also had the ability to mess with the eagles when they approached the Tupolev Tu-95s Bear bombers. I talked to a couple of the F15C pilots from the CAC at Galena and they told me as they approached the Russian aircraft, the eagle inertial guidance system that fed the aircraft would malfunction just enough to make it difficult to fly the eagles on computer and they had to go manual. When they got far enough away, the aircraft would get back on track. No one talked about that, but it happened on a number of occasions.

I just put 2 and 2 together. Do you remember all of those times the Pentagon couldn’t account for billions of dollars? I wonder if this is where that money is going.

Prove anything on the Internet is true, same as this issue. I know the claims, never seen proof.

“ I’m gonna have to see it up close and personal to believe it.”

It seems many professional people with nothing to gain, have seen things that are not explainable

If someone has figured out a way to control gravity/inertia with electromagnetic forces, this is what would be expected. Basically an "inertialess" drive. It also opens up space travel, even if only at sub light speeds.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Precisely. In General Relativity the force of inertia that operates in opposition to acceleration or deceleration is the combined gravity of the rest of the universe acting at each point. Shielding gravity from a particular direction would enable very rapid changes in velocity vector in the opposite direction without inducing the inertial forces that would crush metal, much less any living being. In fact, no other power source would be required as the "Drive" power comes from the pull of gravity in the non-shielded direction with little or no resistance.

The line of least resistance in "Free fall" is called the geodesic in spacetime. By changing the shape of the geodesic locally one creates the so-called "Wrinkle in Time" or "Tunnel in the Sky" of Heinlein. My tensor analysis is a little rusty, so I can't show how this can possibly result in faster than light travel, but my gut tells me it's related. After all, warping gravity locally entails a very large mass being close enough, in some sense, even though it is not that way (i.e., "Close") in our frame of reference.

Last point: Some theorists on the Internet suggest that the warping of the geodesic entails moving orthogonally to every direction in space, i.e., moving along the time axis of the 4D spacetime continuum...resulting in some apparently superluminal velocities.

To your point… didn’t someone just testify last week that funds literally are “misappropriated “ to go elsewhere that can’t be tracked?

That made me wonder also.

Perhaps the pilot said simultaneously and the author, editor, or the AI they used to proof the article just messed up.

It interesting to me that these UFO threads AND the Lazamataz threads have gotten more Freeper responses than all the Ukraine-Russia threads. Maybe we need a laugh.... Or twelve.

Like everything else president taterhead is involved in, the Ukraine stuff just makes my blood pressure go up so I tend to avoid reading about it.

As a kid I was fascinated by the ufo phenomenon and read everything I could get my hands on about the subject.......then I grew up. 😏

Our beloved Ray Bradbury once commented that we are surrounded by aliens with which we simply cannot communicate. Flora and fauna aplenty, full of life and vitality and not really giving "important" us a second thought.

And that when we tell our science fictions stories to ourselves, we are actually telling us our own stories. THEY (we) are superior, THEY (we) can be dangerous enemies willing to conquer and kill, and alternatively THEY (we) are come to better the world. THEY (we). I often thank him and his peers for such perspectives.

Best wishes.

Your friendly "little green man" WT.

PS I have hidden my UFO, so it is assured the government will NEVER find it. Yes, I am that smart. Or not.

Well, the Martians flying the UFOs of UAPs or whatever they're called these days, were just evolving their technology to suit the planetary population they wished to impress.

See? :)

“Or... Just let them believe what they like as long as it doesn’t squash the beliefs of others. Why is it they absolutely have to impose their own on others? Each to their own...”

We’re dealing with narcissists. Once that’s understood, their ego-centric behavior makes sense.
