I looked through the posts and didn't see it mentioned, but it was on the news this week that whatever those UFO triangles are, they can also deactivate our nukes. Makes me think they may not be from out of this world. Pretty scary either way.

I found this CBS news story from 2010 that states this too.

The History Channel has an article from 2019 about many UFO sightings around nuclear facilities.

The government wants to divert attention away from what they are working on and might have been spotted by the public. Pretty obvious. If there were people from outer space buzzing around they would have landed by now and made it official.

I'm thinkin' they do have some sort of "jump drive".

By the way, Jay....your rhyming replies are cute.

Why not just declassify the past findings? LOL


Even if they want to have a fresh investigation to look at them today, in the interest of transparency, the govt should still declassify all the old project details and let the public see them! There is nothing national security related, that would be applicable today, from back in the 40s or 50s. so that is not a concern.
I don't think they are starting from scratch. Maybe they want us to think that (??).... Learning about and improving on technology, be it our own or otherwise, comes with time, trial & error, wisdom and experience. Well, hopefully.

Don't think they are drones

They estimate there are 2 trillion galaxies, and each galaxy has 100 million stars. Which is 2,000,000,000,000 * 100,000,000 = 200,000,000,000,000,000,000.

If the probability of life existing on a planet near a given star was 10^4(1 in 10,000), then there would be 20,000,000,000,000,000 planets with life. If the probability of life per star was 10^10(1 in 10,000,000,000), then there would be 20,000,000,000 planets with life. If the probability was 10^20, then there would be 2 planets with life. And so on.


You can't say, "The universe is big therefore life exists everywhere", without first knowing the odds that any life exists at all. And the people who pretend they're smart by saying such a thing are the biggest idiots of all.

Moreover, why did you use the term "race" to describe intelligent extraterrestrial lifeforms? Unlike what you might see on TV, there is a 0% chance of a human/alien hybrid.

Drake's equation only knows the number of planets, not the possibility that life exists. The answer to Drake's Equation could be anything from the total number of planets in the universe, to zero(although we know it is at least one). Or put simply, you have no idea so stop pretending you do.
