I’ll admit that the football field sized red square is a bit of a puzzler.
Regarding the supposed crash retrievals, why do they always crash in areas remote enough that they can be retrieved with little or no public awareness? Why never the middle of Manhattan or London?
Statistics dictate that most UFOs would crash in the ocean, since most of the Earth is water. That suggests they are even worse pilots than I imagined.
The only thing that is plausible in this, is that the military or spook agencies decided 75 years ago that Congress nor Presidents weren’t to be trusted, and they cut them out of the loop completely and have continued to do so since that time. I suppose I could believe that, sort of.
Grusch is lying or is repeating lies. Nobody is trying to stop anybody from asking any questions about this. If you have more questions we would be glad to answer them for you.
If the detail are classified then there should be in investigation leading to him being charged with sharing classified info with the world. Or there should be an investigation into the 40 people to see if they should be charged with sharing classified info with him.
In the far more likely case this is all bunk and rumor, at least we’ll have learned that much.
I don’t need to go digging into these sorts of rumours to debunk them, because we only need to ask the question, if aliens are or were here, where did they come from? And why did they pick Earth? They certainly didn’t come from this solar system – we’re well past the point of believing we might be attacked by Martians. So they came from another star, and herewith the problem with that:
The diameter of the Milky Way is nearly 106,000 light-years. It contains at least 100 billion stars. Most of these stars have planets but proportionately very few are suitable for life, and fewer still would have developed intelligent life. It’s vanishingly improbable that our hypothetical aliens came from any of our immediately neighbouring exoplanets, respectively 4.2, 11, 22, and 40 light-years away. Statistically, the nearest intelligent aliens are likely thousands of light-years away, with hundreds of millions of other habitable planets between themselves and Earth for them to invade. And even if they came from Proxima Centauri b, which they didn’t because it’s too cold for carbon-based life, they would have had to travel over 24 trillion miles to get here.
We then have to believe the following. That they made this voyage In something more or less the size of a space-faring Cessna, except shaped like a saucer. A craft that, after surviving an unimaginable journey through interstellar space using incredibly advanced technology, then promptly crashed when it got to Earth. Possibly because the aliens, popping the champagne in celebration of their arrival and imminent domination of Earth, got drunk at the controls and drove it into the ground near Roswell, NM. This prompted the US military to sweep up the remains of the saucer and the aliens and stash it all in Area 51 for analysis, which has been going on for 76 years with (a) apparently no useful results that enabled the US to create any technology that wasn’t the result of conventional engineering by overpriced military contractors, and (b) no one including any US president ever finding out about it.
I have never understood why being “sincere” about one’s views is considered to of evidentiary value. This simply doesn’t make any sense to me. Yet, large portions of the population seem to think it is the case.
Sincerity has no evidentiary value, but it can demarcate a boundary between lying and simply being wrong–a potentially invaluable boundary, when one is testifying under oath.
I’m embarrassed this is even getting time. Until they can actually show wreckage or alien body parts this is all a bunch of hooey. You’d think with tens of thousands of people knowing about this for decades, one of them could have smuggled out a picture or a thumb drive full of actual evidence. Instead we have a bunch of friend of a friend stories .
What a freaking waste of resources. It’s not like we don’t have actual problems to work on.
Yes, but I’m thinking about those people who truly do believe. They so quickly switch from “here’s why I think something” to “I’ve spent ten years and $300K trying to let people know about this…why does everyone still doubt me?”
Senators have proposed an amendment to require the government to make UFO records public. The amendment would also give the federal government eminent domain over any recovered technologies of unknown origin or biological evidence of nonhuman intelligence now held by private individuals or organizations.
