"The government is in possession of exotic materials, and we'll leave it at that." -Former senior Pentagon official at the Advanced Aerial Threat Identification Program
The irony of using Neil as your rhyming name, while refuting that we can get to the moon. You're really a buzz kill, Bill.
I'm constantly amazed by how limited some people are, by putting human limitations on possible extra terrestrial capabilities, we could be the ant colony of the universe.
Man on the moon is something i just don't buy sly. Mars is never gonna happen in our lifetimes and why even bother? Everything in our system is dead, barren.
If everything was real like it was SPACE1999 then i would be all for it if we had a Eagle that did a speed of 8.4. At least you can get to the moon in under 3 hours.
Many people wouldn't believe in extraterrestrial life if one of these crafts landed on their back lawn and the occupants came right out and stood before them.
In my opinion, it is damned arrogant and stupid to assume there is no life anywhere in the universe besides this tiny little insignificant planet. And it is very naive to assume there is no chance of technology far in advance of ours in said extraterrestrial life. When we are dealing with an infinite universe and possibly infinite dimensions of our universe, the probability of there not being life elsewhere is essentially zero.
I do i do i do believe in life on other planets janet. I say millions of planets have life. But the time speed thing can never be licked. At least that is what the lion said on OZ.
However, close examination of the videos by myself and others over the three years since they were released has shown them to be far more mundane than first thought.
The "glowing aura" mentioned in the New York Times headline turned out to be a processing artifact common to thermal cameras.
The supposed impossible accelerations in the "Tic-Tac" video were revealed to coincide with (and hence caused by) sudden movements of the camera, leading to the conclusion that the object in the video was not actually doing anything special.
The video titled "Go Fast" was claimed to show an object with no heat source (and hence, no conventional engine) moving impossibly fast over the surface of the ocean.
But some 10th-grade trigonometry showed it was actually much higher than it seemed, creating an illusion of motion, and the actual speed was more like wind speed, meaning it was probably just a balloon.
The most compelling video, "Gimbal,” seems to show an actual flying saucer skimming over clouds then coming to a stop and bizarrely rotating into an aerodynamically impossible position.
But closer examination of this video showed that when the "object" rotated, other patches of light in the scene rotated.
The only possible explanation being that the rotation was a camera artifact, and that the "flying saucer" was simply the infrared glare from the engines of a distant aircraft that was flying away. An examination of the camera's patents revealed the gimbal mechanism responsible for the apparent rotation.
Since then, two more videos from the UAP Task Force were leaked. Both initially seemed amazing: a flying triangle and a zig-zagging submersible sphere.
But, like the previous three, they became more mundane under closer examination.
I found that the triangle looked and acted exactly like an out-of-focus airplane, and the sphere was shown not to zig-zag, probably to be another glare, and to disappear behind the horizon rather than under the water.
Given the disappointing mundanity of the video evidence, what are we to expect from the upcoming UAP report, due in June?
Right because fighter pilots, radar techs, image/video analysts, and high ranking military brass were all fooled and said it was unexplained but those mundane problems are really so obvious that an armchair skeptic could easily point them out and explain it all.
Clearly reality is going to be a shock for some people who don't want to see it. Probably still why the government is trying to slow roll this, even though they can't stop it completely any more.

At least not by our way of thinking or understanding of physics.
We could be wrong/too stupid.
