Donald Trump says he’s heard ‘interesting’ things about aliens but refuses to reveal secrets...

DONALD Trump said he has heard some "interesting things" about aliens as he hinted he may declassify files on the infamous Roswell UFO.

The President was speaking to his son Don Jr in a Father's Day themed interview on his official YouTube channel.

*snip*

Responding to his son, the President said: "So many people ask me that question, it sounds like a cute question.

"There are millions and millions of people who want to go there, who want to see it.

"I won't talk to you about what I know about it, but its very interesting."

Trump adds he will "have to think about" whether or not to will declassify further top secret files.

*snip*

Nick Pope, who used to run the British defense ministry's UFO project, said it would be “nonsense” to suggest the President is being kept in the dark about potential UFO threats.

Pope told Sun Online: “There are conspiracy theories suggesting President Trump's plans for a Space Force reflect a need to protect Earth against hostile aliens.

"There were similar conspiracy theories about President Reagan's Star Wars plan."

He added: “While there may not be an alien connection, President Trump surely knows all of America's UFO secrets - some of which were released earlier this year as part of the AATIP project - and this may have contributed to his keenness to develop a military Space Force."

Are you assuming that for life to exist on another planet, both that life and planet must be very close to our own? Carbon-based with liquid water, with life using oxygen and water as its most basic life support?

Well, there are a lot of kooks out in the world.

There sure are. Some will believe anything...and some will believe nothing.

“Some will believe anything...and some will believe nothing.”

“believe nothing”

I think what you meant to say is that there are those who trust nothing. And they are not wrong in that.

Believing nothing and trusting nothing are 2 different things.

I agree with you about trusting nothing. Things are almost never what they appear to be on the surface.

That said, the truth is out there. And it is a lot stranger than it appears on the surface.

BTW, I was using the word "believe" as "accept"...not "believe in."

LOL!
I think we’re all currently in the process of becoming victims of a ‘secular inquisition’ :-)

Practice makes perfect! Even the Zeta Reticulans have a learning curve.

"Are you assuming that for life to exist on another planet, both that life and planet must be very close to our own?"

Water is one of the few substances in the world that is less dense as a solid than as a liquid. This allows it to form a cap over itself during cold periods keeping the remaining water in a liquid form.

We know that our own planet has undergone massive changes over its history. Having some important parts protected during these climactic changes to protect whatever life has developed there is probably an important reason why life started and thrived here or anywhere.

...also the carbon bond is very special and allows for all manner of molecules. Silicon is in the same column of the periodic chart so there is speculation there might be silicon based beings, but I don’t expect there will be uranium based beings on anyone’s radar.

I suspect that a lot of the ‘aliens’ in ancient stories didn’t require what we consider ‘physical needs’. When we assumed such, we were just giving them *stuff* which - from our perspective - would appease them and allow us to remain in their good graces :-)

Why did nobody remember or talk about Roswell for thirty years, until Friedman decided there was ‘something there’?

I read a book titled The Roswell UFO Crash: What They Don't Want You to Know by Kal Korff mainly because I thought it was another hokey "expose" of the incident cover-up.

It turned out to be a riot, for the author peeled away each witness like an onion and revealed that most of the witnesses were B/S artists, with the most egregious being the undertaker and his "child size coffins". The most unusual part of that whole thing was how memories grew sharper over the years, with new "remembered" items/events being added with each retelling.

I agree with this author that what was found was a radar reflector from a spy balloon, one of many, which the govt wanted to keep secret (spying in Russian air space to see if they had developed the A-Bomb).

The interesting sidebars were all those authors who climbed on the bandwagon, jumping to conclusions (of Olympic magnitude) or outright making things up, with Berlitz being an outright fraud.

IMO, the museum in Rosewell did a good job of being even-handed, which was a surprise to me as the city played it up for the tourists.

Rosewell is a good example of how a mystery can be created out of thin air and gullible people - much like the Bermuda Triangle nonsense.

Perhaps a balloon - but of a very different sort.

I’ve always been intrigued by a slightly different explanation. There was a different kind of balloon floating around back then; apparently the remains of one was found just recently.

(We have to remember that people in 1947 were living under very different circumstances, and had different references and concerns that we do, today. We have to interpret their responses within the context of their times and concerns.):

Why did you develop eyes in the back of your head? Did you see something, or just a creepy feel?

People reported seeing things in the 80s. It was stealth fighter testing.

Ever been to Heber AZ and drive the Rim Road?

Lots of weird stories around that area. Then drive that road after dark....

Absolutely beautiful that area though.

Well, I was speaking of ‘sightings’ of strange things from times long before airplanes or even balloons were invented.

Well, I have no idea what the ‘outworlders’ may be thinking and planning.

(By the way - don’t worry about ‘burdens’, now or in the afterlife. It’s probably all a matter of ‘there is no end, life just begins again’; and we’ll probably all have to deal with Life, in some form, for eternity...)

Maybe we'll see the beginning of the U1O work visas...
