She did preface with saying that she wanted to get the "out there" questions off her chest. or something to that effect. It was hard to decipher from the unintelligible ranting.

Sounds like the script for Jurassic World that almost was... human-dino hybrids!

That's not really how she stated that though, she didn't say the questions were out there, she said she would ask the questions that are likely to land her on a list. Then she went on a rant about other things that have landed her on list, naming basically her whole career outside of the movie theatre.

She presented that as a rumor on the hill and that she was trying to substantiate those sources based on the reply.

Ultimately, it is unimportant. She remains a loon and the questions on UAPs and how the program remains in the dark were basically untouched or unanswered substantially. The hearing was again, worth nothing.

Whatever happened to the term 'UFO?' It was nice. Simple. Succinct.

The truth is out there!

Woke culture strikes again!

Actually I think they changed it from flying object to aerial phenomenon because often it's just an illusion in the sky.

Weather balloons are still "objects". Phenomena don't need to have physical form at all.

And it's now unidentified anomalous phenomenon, because they say they go underwater, so no longer just aerial.

If Trump and is yahoos don’t leak this out accidentally we know it hasn’t happened. Musk would be getting access to the tech to advance space X. The Griftococracy will be unable to keep secrets where there is opportunity for profit.

I have to agree that the fact that Don hasn't spilled all about it yet is the most likely proof that there's nothing to be spilled.

Of course, he may not have understood what he was being told about "Aliens" much like he fails to understand "asylum" does not mean sanitorium.

I'm not sure Presidents are required to be fully read into these Special Access Programs. At least not all of them. This is a temporary, rotating position that, much like all staff and contractors, are read in on a 'need-to-know' basis, which can vary depending on things like priority, threat assessment, legal obligations, etc.

Trump has hinted he would like to 'disclose' but that doesn't mean he has the knowledge to do so.

When you think about the vastness of the universe, if there were intelligent civilizations that mastered light speed travel, it would still take them millions of years to get here.

Alien civilizations maybe existed billions of years ago. Or will exist billions of years from now. Or maybe then even exist right now, but they are too far for any contact. Even Andromeda is 2.5MM light years away.

It's a fun exercise.
I mean, you assume that Light Speed travel is the only advanced form of travel for aliens? We don't know what we don't know.

And I say that as a non-believer.

100%. Wouldn't surprise me if multi-dimensional theory comes more into this discussion as well; hence the perceived incredible 'maneuverability' for observed phenomenon.

As well, as human beings we may need to further research what our understandings are of distance and time; as we now know time isn't linear based on modern astrophysics, and it's likely we have just scratched the surface of the implications of what that means.

Lotta people just assuming UAP's come from outer space and not another dimension or Earth itself.

My go to assumption is that they are from Earth and that humans are more technologically advanced than most of the public knows.

I think I once read somewhere in Jane's Defence Weekly that the military is now usually about 30 years ahead in technological capability of the public's knowledge with many of their black projects. Famously, Lockheed's (sexy AF) F-117 was conceived in 1975, flown for the first time in 1981, and only became public knowledge in 1988; it had already been airborne for seven years by the time people became aware of it. Just a classic example of this delay in what's out there and what's actually being engineered / produced.

It's fun to imagine stuff like deconstructing space stations and our bodies into photons, transporting them across the universe, then constructing them again. But that is pretty ridiculous.

Our science tells us that particles cannot accelerate up to the speed of light, because that would take infinite energy. Therefore nothing can go faster than the speed of light. In fact, no particles can even reach the speed of light, never mind go faster than it.

We're pretty alone out here.

New UAP report published today by All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO)

Over 750 cases reported in 12 months. Most resolved - however:

“ But the remaining 21 cases have not yet been plausibly explained, requiring additional data and analysis. Kosloski said some of these were “interesting cases that I - my physics and engineering background, and time in the (intelligence community) - I do not understand, and I don’t know anybody else who understands them either.”

Kosloski is the new head of AARO.
