They’ve already got to you with their propaganda and you just can’t not believe.

Funny. I could say the same thing about you.

You have your mind made up. I am just speculating.

It's the made-up mind that is blinded by bias. Not the mind which is still open to the various possibilities.

Take a long hard look in the mirror, Mr. Blinded-By-Bias.

Not that I would expect any truth from NASA or any other Government agency.

Personally I believe. We’re not the only ones in an infinite universe. Anyone thinking otherwise has blinders on.

Anyone bringing up religion has no say in the matter for the simple reason.. how do we know God or whatever supreme being didn’t create multiple Earth’s throughout the universe. You have no clue. All you know is your faith based on a book that could have numerous renditions throughput the universe. PROVE ME WRONG.

As for UFOs UAPs etc, I’m guessing many are like our Mars probes and solar system probes. Could be alien driven who knows. Our view of physics is based on what week know which is probably miniscule at best.

How could they travel light years... maybe they don’t. Maybe a wormhole takes a few seconds or maybe light-years to us is a few seconds to “them”. Again PROVE ME WRONG.

I believe in Bigfoot too... no shxt.

You can’t prove a negative based on the absence of proof.

An open mind is a learning mind.

[RoosterRedux]

Ah, no.

And that’s not how the government works.

See. That's what I mean. You've got your mind made up...closed to any possibility but the one you believe.

You are a victim of confirmation bias.

[RoosterRedux]

An open mind is a learning mind.

Amen. See tagline.

[Sirius Lee]

..and can we get back to calling them UFOs?

Amen. The two I saw were flying and appeared to be solid metallic disc shaped objects performing in ways that aircraft and balloons do not. absolutely.

No idea what they were other than that.

HI. Two issues / questions, perhaps in the form of comments.

Enjoyed reading through the Nelson article. "Other worldly" as a statement suggests many things, but the skeptic in me sticks with "natural" if unexplained. You'd mention whistle blowers threatened / "perhaps" killed, and I would be most curious about this, if you have further sources you trust?

From decades ago, I recall a lecture in which the "listening" channel, SETI sort of, was calculated using a rotational shift based on relativistic Doppler effects, such that the "noise" on background radiation shows one "channel" -- frequency -- on which, when re-graphed based on Doppler shifting, shows this one where the noise disappears. It was alleged that on this one noiseless channel any other quasi-intelligent species at our development level or higher, would also be either sending or listening. The particular frequency "heard" nothing, so the lecturer noted. That was back in the days of the first commercial calculators being developed, so a long time ago. Heard of this?

I pinged Freeper cgbg because he may know more on this subject.

Nowadays, there are no sources anyone can trust...but you knew that.

IIRC, it was part of the Congressional hearings a few weeks ago. And it may have been part of the Ross Coulthart interview with David Grusch.

David Grusch said that many potential whistleblowers are downright scared of the government, which is why they won't talk to the DOD AARO team. Those same whistleblowers have been going directly to classified Congressional committees (confirmed by many congressmen and senators).

When asked, Grusch said that he and they were threatened with physical harm. He said that before the Congressional hearing, he was threatened and much worse. His house was broken into and his family was threatened. This was part of his Congressional testimony under oath.

And for those who say "under oath" doesn't mean anything. Grusch has also filed a complaint against the DOD and the intelligence community with the U.S. Office of the Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG)--also under oath. His complaint contains the same information as his testimony to Congress under oath. If Grusch is lying in his complaint to the ICIG (breaking that oath), there are much more severe penalties.

BTW, the Intelligence Community Inspector General found his complaint “credible and urgent” and released a public statement and advised the House Oversight Committee to that effect.

There are many other places where it has come up regarding the Congressional whistleblower protection program that was part of the National Defense Appropriation Act, 2023. There are other people on this thread that may have good sources. Perhaps they will read your comment and respond.

Oh and Rep. Tim Burchett (R. TN) has spoken of this.

My position on all of this UFO stuff is that we need to keep an open mind. I have no idea what is going on.

I speculate and assign odds, but until something substantive comes to light, we are all just groping in the dark.

Thanks. I think that pretty much sums up my thoughts. Happy to say "I don't know." Happy to be informed when something actually informational comes to be, and can be further investigated / interrogated. In the meantime, I'm having a cocktail before dinner. Cheers!

I'm having a cocktail before dinner. Cheers!

Have one for me. That was always my favorite time of day.

But unfortunately I quit about 5 years ago. Was drinking too much.

One day I might try it again to see if I can behave now that I am older.;-)

Cheers anyway!
