Do you believe in UFOs & flying saucers ?

Hamsterchops

Have you every seen an unidentified flying object?

A UFO of course is just an aerial phenomenon that you can't explain (hence unidentified), & probably not at all connected to little green men from Mars.

So what are UFOs and have you ever seen something in the sky that you couldn't explain?

In the past many people have mistaken aircraft, weather balloons, silver party balloons, and even bright planets in the night sky as UFOs, but of course under scrutiny they usually have a rational & logical explanation. More recently drones have been mistaken as UFOs.

Then in the last month we've had video clips released from the Pentagon actually showing real UFOs filmed darting around at amazing speeds & doing manouvers that would be impossible for any manned craft to do. The G forces would be so powerful as to kill any human occupants, so what was witnessed by the US Navy pilots and the aircraft carrier radar?

Are UFOs terrestrial or extraterrestrial craft?

Illusions or really there, imagination or reality?

What are UFOs !

Consciousness seems to be the big buzz word in Ufology at the moment. Steven Greer (I know, not a big fan either) really pushes the notion of CE5, which is a series of steps that can bring a sighting of a Ufo to you. Richard Dolan, along with others, has started bringing this up a lot too.

There is a new documentary called The Phenomenon which is well worth a look.

But how would you even go about seeing a UFO?

Liedown on the grass and stare at the sky waiting for something to appear, or sit in the back garden at night looking up at the stars waiting for movement? I've seen nothing so far, and I guess most other people haven't either. Probably just a tiny minority of people worldwide who have witnessed something unidentified (and unexplained) in the sky.

I guess it just happens. Not too common but myself and some relations have seen them in the countryside also I fella I knew in ATC.

They are areas where sightings are said to be common. Even in parts of Ireland.

It's a shame this topic can't be discussed without referencing the obligatory 1950s tropes of little green men from Mars and flying saucers
The latest terminolgy used by the Americans is unidentified aerial phenomenon.

The universe (both known and unknown) is so vast, it's absolutely unimaginably vast. There has to be other intelligent life out there. It would be very naive for us to think we are the only intelligent life in the universe. So yes, I do think there are little green men flying around out there somewhere. Have they ever come here, who knows, but they're out there.

Reading a book on Triangle UFO's atm by David Marler, really interesting including radar data & eyewitness accounts.

Yesh, no, I'd say that's precisely the wrong way to go about it. The term "UFO" starts with "unidentified", and that's all it means: we haven't identified it. In the future we might, but there's a chance we might not, because the universe is so huge and spread out, with light years between stars.

Imagine for a minute that Star Wars was true: that a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, a galactic Empire rose, and fell, and who knows what else happened. The enormous amounts of time and distance involved would almost guarantee that we would never hear about it. It works the other way too: our civilization(s) will rise and fall, all our wars and worries will be resolved - one way or another - and it will all go unnoticed in a universal sense.

I'm surprised no-one has mentioned the Fermi Paradox yet, named after the physicist who once asked "where is everybody?" There are various hypotheses listed in that article for why we haven't been visited yet, or don't know about it if we have,

Why did the US military, when going in to capture / kill their number one target (Bin Ladin) use helicopters, one of which crashed? This was 7 years after the tic tac video.

Watching Unidentified Season 2 on the History Channel at the moment. This stuff is going on all the time. The Tic Tac video is only one of many, which they hope will be released.

One reason people reckon is security. Free energy could totally change the planet but it also has the potential to be very destructive if it were used as a weapon.
Another reason is the fossil fuel cartel have become so rich and powerful and they are not willing to just give all that up.
Third reason is they can't make money off it like they can with normal elecrticity, you can't meter it and sell it.

Even with standard weapons the world's superpowers are very cloak and dagger. I read about some new plane the Americans had built, radical new design, very hush-hush. When US got involved in Bosnia, some of them wanted to use the plane in the war but the high ups wouldn't let them, they were paranoid about anyone seeing it, or shooting it down and capturing it. Same again with the first Gulf war, and again with the second.

The warplane can't be used in a war because their enemies might get a peek at it :pac: It will probably be obselete soon, if it isn't already, without ever being used.

Interesting thinking. Free energy has its well known benefits but not many bring up the negatives.

With the projected number of planets with life estimates so high it would be no surprise that thousands would have civilisations massively ahead of our own.
Why wouldn’t they observe us as a sort of living history lesson or sociology experiment.

Wasn’t there a Star Trek episode specifically about that happening.

No different to humans spending months in the jungle observing chimpanzee groups.

If there were a backwards civilisation on the moon you can bet we would be endlessly observing them.

Maybe we’re a sort of Truman show for them.

There was one theory that the tic tac UFO is a top-secret craft belonging to US military.
If that's true they have really been keeping us in the dark. It had no visible engine or means of propulsion, no wings, moved super-fast, and hovered completely still in strong winds, produced no heat, no exhaust fumes ect.

It would have to be anti-gravity technology and really, really advanced. If it is man-made then they have gone way ahead of anything we could have imagined.
Even our space programs are still using more or less victorian technology, like.

Good points well made...
Would like some more videos though, apart from those poor quality little "tic tac" snippets we've all seen.

You can only imagine the imbalance (of current) that would suddenly occur if some poor potatoe farmer in Egypt can suddenly run desal-plants, tractors, and all sorts of machinery for free 24/7, sure you'd never get any peace with folks whizzing about on hoverboards or zero-point gravitating themselves down to Barbados for the weekend.

That's true. The entire fossil fuel industry would die overnight leaving some very pissed off billionaires.

Richard Dolan is a good source for all of this.

They would have used it openly though?

Then again, the US has never had to fight an existential war.

If they are man made, whoever is suppressing it from major powers doesn't want us to know something.

If it turns out to be copied technology from UFOs this will potentially confirm the presence of extra terrestrial life forms.. which would possibly cause widespread panic.

Well the theory is that there was a breakaway or crossroads of technology: NASA carried on with the old fashioned combustion technology while other sections of the Govt started to secretly develop more advanced propulsion systems.

The space program has sort of stalled since the 70s tbf, Von Braun claimed that we would be visiting Mars and have colonies on the Moon by the 80s I think.
It is the same with weapons development, US, Russia, China etc want to keep everything top-secret, don't let the other crowd even get an inkling of what you've got.

It's interesting that in the big UFO wave of the early 50s in America, lots of high up people in military and govt thought that they were advanced Russian craft buzzing the US as an aggressive display of air superiority. They even asked Russia on the QT if they belonged to them.

I believe that it is foolish to dismiss stuff that is not yet fully understood or explained.

Scepticism is fine but flat dismissal is foolish.

This also goes for the paranormal, the occult and other related areas.

They exist alright as shown by the released US navy videos and other cases. What they are is the question.

They had some engineered aluminium object that dated from before humans had the capability to industrially produce aluminum

They were also showing a metal ball discovered in America (Betz Sphere) that had a.small sample of element 140 inside the ball, and which made the device roll around after humans. Bizarre stuff.

And there was a show on before it about the portugese air force pilot in 1977 who had a close encounter with a craft that moved super fast and didn't show up on radar it caused his instruments to go gaga and his plane went into freefall. he was very lucky to gain control at the last second.
The encounter happened above a big hydro-electric dam and at the exact same time there was a massive drain on the power station that they couldn't explain. Really interesting stuff.
