And... since our science is all there is mankind has not evolved in the past 10k years elsewhere and achieved new levels its foolish to even suggest that science, math,the 10% usage we have of our minds everything we know or think we know has evolved. Since nothing evolves. Everything stays the same. That's how we like it. Change is well.... uncomfortable, so why allow it.

I wouldn't bother looking. Seems you have already made up your mind that mile long triangles don't exist in your world so don't upset your self.
One of the most interesting things about the Phoenix lights is that the governor at the time Fife Symington made a big joke about it all claiming it was nothing.He had one of his aides dress up as an alien and it all went away which was what he needed at the time.
Problem is years later he recanted and told the truth that it really happened.

Rod:

Just a tip--they are not "coming" here from _there_. They _are_ here.

If folks ask the wrong questions they get the wrong answers.

(SETI, for example, is a total joke.)

Jacque Vallee is the best guy to read on this stuff.

Then listen to podcasts on UFos by Terence McKenna and also the Rubert Sheldrake "banned Ted talk" I linked earlier.

Right now our thoughts are prisoners of a culture of "science" which closes minds instead of opening them, and punishes "heretics"--as humans have throughout history.

Have you found that video yet? You’d appreciate it.

As for what I think does or doesn’t exist, you assume about me.

So lighten up, FRiend. It’s not a big deal.

I recommend a book called “Three Body Problem’. It’s fiction, but it makes a compelling argument that aliens aren’t likely to give a rip about us, but they will be interested in taking our resources. And that puts us in a tight spot.
