So you don't believe in the big bang, you don't believe in dark matter, time dilation, black hole paradox etc.

Modern day physics is rapidly changing and a lot of it is theoretical and yet what we currently belonged cannot all be true sure to paradoxes and yet you happily sit there and believe it because a scientist told you.

There is, I would suggest, a huge gulf between theoretical physics (which changes its viewpoint based on what can be observed) and information and theories about UFOs based on anecdotal bystander observations and hinted-at revelations from anyone in Trump's government. The president took boxes and boxes of confidential files home before he lost in 2020. Der Spiegel reported was able to find private contact details and passwords for members of a Signal group chat including Gabbard, Hegseth, and Waltz on the Internet.The Defense Secretary sent classified data on then-active missions to his wife, brother and lawyer from his personal phone - I don't think there's much likelihood that the same administration is keeping secrets on anything other than their own incompetence and corruption. Happy to admit I'm wrong if it turns out they are! :)

Oh and of course you have faith, you support Blues 💙

Touché! :)

Is it me or does it seem that most of these aliens seem to hang around the USA? Is that unfair, just a coincidence, or just as we might expect?

It's just you only hear about the US ones. Russia have their fair share of UFOs if the past is anything to go by but you're hardly likely to beat about them, same goes for China.
The only reason you're hearing about the US ones now is due to the large disclosure movement which was stated by the release of the infamous tic tac video and a couple of others.

This is nothing to do with trump's government. This is a bi-partisan issue with large support from both sides of the house.

I do like how first hand eye witnesses are now "anecdotal bystanders" 😂 it's almost like we can't win

Eye witness testimony is notoriously unreliable. ;)

It's actually not. It's not perfect by any stretch of the imagination but it's a very very good standard of evidence. It's silly to suggest otherwise.

It really is. :) Here's a little test we can do - I read the book these guys wrote and, from memory, only about 50% of people can answer correctly after watching this short, 90 second attention test video:-


It's a really good book, BTW. :)

like i said it's not perfect, however you only have to look to criminal trials to undertand that eye witness accounts are a very good source of testimony. you can also add into the mix that a lot of these witnesses are trained observers, in that they are trained to look at objects in the sky and decipher what type of plane / drone / missile / helicopter they are seeing.

I've actually got round to watching the film now. It's a really good summary of where we are and how we got here.
Whilst there's probably not a lot of new stuff for fans of the topic it's pretty good.
The usual people are in it, Puthoff, Elizondo etc but it is interesting that Garry Nolan is in it saying that he has personally seen people who have been injured from close encounters.
All in all 4/5 novaks
