So......UFO'S.....

I agree with @Cas and really dig his avatar

It's the San Jose Sharks.

The three recent Pentagon "ufo" videos are just ordinary aircraft being picked up on sensors and shown to people who have no idea what they're looking at.

I mean yeah, almost certainly. But it feels like Pentagon is happy to have people come away with the impression that it's "something else".

Honestly, if anything, I think it's more likely that there are people at the Pentagon who actually believe its "something else".

I sure hope that's not the case

I've worked with military personnel and contractors, and some of them believe some very weird ****. Stuff that is just on an entirely different planet.

I'd guess they'd (the government) would be encouraging this UFO sub culture because it's a harmless cover for their spying technology.

There seems to be a heavy overlap between people who are very very interested in the military and people who are very very weird.

dont forget NASA as well. they started a task force last year to study UAPs

NASA Announces Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Study Team Members

they have a live briefing/public meeting apparently on the 31st.

NASA Provides Coverage of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Meeting - NASA

NASA is holding a public meeting at 10:30 a.m. EDT Wednesday, May 31, of its independent study team on categorizing and evaluating data of unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP). The agency also will host a media teleconference at the conclusion of the meeting.

I find it telling how so much focus is on unidentified "flying" objects. Nobody ever says they see an alien walking around. Nobody says they saw a craft sitting on the ground. It's always at a distance, inside the lower atmosphere.

The really interesting thing that will come out of this is the insight it gives us on human psychology. People have always reflexively assigned unknown phenomena to the supernatural. In the very specific case of flying objects in the past 100 years, they bypass the supernatural and go for sci-fi. It's fascinating social behavior.

So are these Boards. But with due respect, I wouldn't want ANY of you camping out in my backyard while you wait for The Little Green Men to arrive.

it is interesting but we as humans seem to gravitate towards the unknown. For example upwards of 70% of the population follows some form of religion or religious beliefs.

The more recent extraterrestrial explorers have all been clearly sophisticated enough to access HFBoards content on their approach, and concluded that interstellar life isn't worth living any more.

So you are saying that there is no intelligent life on this planet?

They are supposed to be gray.

The family in LV says that they are tall creatures, in the 8 to 10 foot range.

Maybe they saw Bigfoot? Some people have claimed that they are linked to UFOs (UAPs).

 

[JMCx4]

Increasingly, no.

 

[adsfan]

I don't pay much attention to UFO talk.

Our periodical table is probably a grain of sand on a beach also when comparing all of the unknown elements out there. It's possible that there are a million planets out there with atmospheres similar to ours.

There may be some Beyond Superheavy elements out there. They would run from 126 to 150+. At the moment, that is about as far as I see it going. Everything above 103 is radioactive, which is a way of saying that they are unstable.

There may be an island of stability. It was a topic that was briefly discussed in my Inorganic Chemistry class in 1979. At that time, it was believed to be around 122 to 126. Glenn Seaborg also talked about it as a Super Actinide series. In plain English, that would be a third row shown at the bottom of the Periodic Table.

Thought there would be a thread on the hearings. Key takeways said under oath:

Key Takeaways from July 26 Hearings:

• IRAD abuse - defence contractors misappropriating funds with govt collusion. Mention of “self-funding”
• Grusch has spent 11 hours with both intel committees
• Grusch has provided names and locations to the IG
• US govt / contractors have craft and non-human biologics
• US govt / contractors have intimidated, hurt, and potentially murdered would-be whistleblowers
• Individuals in charge of classification (access to information) are career senior executive officials in both military / dod and defence contractors - unelected officials
• Satellite imagery of crashes, tests, retrievals exists
• US govt / contractors could have advanced tech that has been made from reverse engineering efforts
• Grusch and his wife were intimidated in a disturbing way
• Grusch knows people who have seen the non-human biologics
• Grusch has seen photos and documents
• Gaetz saw image and radar data of orb UAP
• Gaetz willing to subpoena image and radar data of orb UAP from Eglin AFB
• Grusch saw footage of shootdown and said craft was otherworldly
• It’s potential for this to also be inter-dimensional - mention of holographic principle
• People have been injured working on ufo legacy reverse engineering programs and potentially hurt by NHI
• Grusch will tell congress everything classified they would like to know in a SCIF
• Grusch will give AOC and other panel members list of involved individuals directly after the hearing
• According to Grusch, statements made by Dr. Kirkpatrick of AARO that there is no evidence of extraterrestrial visitation or objects defying known science are inaccurate - Grusch was under oath, Kirkpatrick was not
• When asked about communication with NHI, Grusch stated he can only talk about this in a classified setting
• Graves knows a military witness who claims Boeing allegedly engaged in incident involving 100yd long red square UAP over Vanderberg AFB - has documentation
• Grusch cannot confirm or deny dept of energy involvement in UAP data collection and housing
• Alleged intimidation via cease and desist letters of commercial pilot witnesses by commercial aviation companies
• Grusch knows current individuals involved in reverse engineering programs that are willing to testify in a classified setting behind closed doors if certain immunities and assurances are met
• All three witnesses agree that it is possible that UAP could be probing our capabilities and nuclear assets, testing for vulnerabilities in our systems, and cannot be defended against
• People will get fired or have pay cut if they don’t get access to a SCIF for next hearing - Holman Rule will be enacted by Rep. Ogles

Sounds like a lunatic.

Sign him up for HFB!

 

[JMCx4]

Grusch will tell congress everything classified they would like to know in a SCIF

He needs to go back & reread those non-disclosure papers he signed for his USG security clearance. And maybe a quick perusal of the OIG's whistleblowing rights & protections. Once he's clear on all that, he can SCIF away.

I guess the US does not have better things to do that listen to a wacko go on about UFOs.

 

[Beau Knows]

Honestly I'd find his claims about the more recent sightings less dubious, if he hadn't tied them to past ones.

Rosewell was 75 years ago, and Grusch is claiming that a massive UFO cover-up has been going on since before even that "incident". There must have been thousands of people involved in this long running conspiracy, and yet we still have no real evidence after all this time. How is that even possible?

While I do believe there is life out there in our massive universe, even galaxy, in one form or another. This UFO conspiracy stuff is just over the top. So what these aliens only try and go to the US and they must be bad drivers as they can travel thousands of light years to here but can't seem to park for shit as they keep crashing?

They're simply trying to blend in with the Earthling traveling population. Plus, they saw all those: "Have you been injured in an accident?" TV commercials, and want to get in on those million dollar settlements.

Could be, new type of ambulance chasing lawyers helping aliens sue for injury.

 

[barriers]

The thing I've never truly understood about these conspiracy theories is the unshakeable confidence that tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of government workers are capable of pulling these coverups off.

What in these people's lifetime has given them the idea that any government is even remotely competent enough to be able to do a fraction of what they claim is being done every day?
