I watched it. It's very good.

Basically you cannot untangle UFOs/UAPs from high strangeness with the high strangeness element being by far the largest part of the phenomenon.

Yes, it was not a boring show.
One thing is clear to me: the phenomenon is not about respecting the most intimate aspects of someone's personal and most intimate privacy.
The phenomenon manipulates our perception, according to 'witnesses'. That is the ultimate weapon. No walls couldn't be breached, no chains of command could be trusted. We are freaking out about AI faking everything. Forget space aliens for a moment. Imaging our AI tech today, 1000 years in the future.
The best outcome would be we are too insignificant for the phenomenon and for it to switch from observer and human testing mode, to a more direct mode.

It would be very bad for this fun and happy thread :D

Australians are certain aliens, they live on the underside of the flat earth without falling off. You must have some alien antigravity device down there :puf_bigsmile:

Yes. Fun and kinda level-headed, as much as humanly possible :D

The thing I don't get is why would any government admit openly that all our taxes supporting the industrial military complex engine is useless against the phenomenon.

The phenomenon is real or it is not. A search is telling me spy satellites can read newspaper headlines from space (random article from 2014), but the same satellites have no data on foo fighters (not the band) around the globe? The spy satellites and all the data collected, methodology etc... are top secret, and will stay that way for a very, very long time.

We'll never know the 'truth' about the phenomenon because:

1) They can't share what they are observing.
2) They can't share that they are powerless.
3) Most people's raison d'être would stop functioning.

I'm equally amused by Chris Lehto's UAP channel & Mick West UAP debunking channel.
I looked into one of the recent Chris Lehto videos, by an Australian who shared his video of an event.
It sound's like a drone to me - I hear beat interference, indicating two or more sound sources with similar very close frequency

I made a video showing the spectrogram of the audio, focusing on the region from around 300-400 Hz.
It looks to me there are two sound sources, since at the perceived pitch change at the 0:32 timestamp I see two overtones keeping distance that decreases with the perceived pitch decrease, while another overtone increases the distance from these.
Also, the overtone distance indicates a missing fundamental of 10Hz, decreased to around 4-5 Hz at the 0:32s timestamp. Drone engine operating at 4-10 RPM sounds like a possibility.

The original Chris Lehto video linked in the description; the UAP video is in the start of Chris Lehtos video. (I ripped the audio from a Short video on Chris channel, but it seems gone now).
Audio LP-filtered:


Fun fact, I HP filtered the audio as well. The recording is in late evening. Can't say there's no normal night sounds, but I BP filtered something that sounds like a bird.
I'm no ornithologist, but checked it with an app that suggested "European Greenfinch", even if the confidence was low; though it sounds kind of similar.
Apparently, finches don't vocalize at night, so why do I hear that in this late evening UAP audio.
Here's my video on the suspected finch sounds: (Crickets or something in the first part, suspected finch in the later half, and also I refined and repeated that at the end of the video):

NASA holds historic UFO hearing: Agency unveils first findings from study into unidentified craft in our skies AND oceans - as Pentagon chief FINALLY admits 'metallic orbs' have been seen 'all over the world'
Pentagon reveals expert 'NASA embeds' now cleared for classified UFO briefings
NASA astrobiologist recommends search for alien 'artifacts' in our solar system
FAA official asks NASA to help reduce 'stigma' for scientists studying UAP data


Unidentified metallic orb UFOs have been spotted 'all over the world', a Pentagon chief admitted today during NASA's first-ever public hearing into the phenomenon.
Physicist Dr Sean Kirkpatrick, director of the Pentagon's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), said: 'We see these ['metallic orbs'] all over the world, and we see these making very interesting apparent maneuvers.'
Dr Kirkpatrick presented AARO's latest findings to NASA's independent team of scientists and other experts who have been tasked with studying the UFO phenomenon — which has become increasingly less stigmatized following several high-profile congressional hearings and military sightings.
Scientists and policymakers from NASA's independent panel also discussed their own proposed recommendations to the federal space agency, including: an active effort to remove the stigma surrounding UAP research, as well as a hunt for alien 'artifacts' within our solar system.
Meanwhile, it was also revealed at today's NASA hearing that the space agency will work closely with the Pentagon's official UFO investigators on top secret UFO cases.
Dr Kirkpatrick said that the Pentagon is closely collaborating with 'NASA embeds,' scientists who have been cleared for work on classified UAP cases where their expertise could help military investigators identify the mysterious craft or events.

INTELLIGENCE OFFICIALS SAY U.S. HAS RETRIEVED CRAFT OF NON-HUMAN ORIGIN

A former intelligence official turned whistleblower has given Congress and the Intelligence Community Inspector General extensive classified information about deeply covert programs that he says possess retrieved intact and partially intact craft of non-human origin.

The information, he says, has been illegally withheld from Congress, and he filed a complaint alleging that he suffered illegal retaliation for his confidential disclosures, reported here for the first time.

Other intelligence officials, both active and retired, with knowledge of these programs through their work in various agencies, have independently provided similar, corroborating information, both on and off the record.

The whistleblower, David Charles Grusch, 36, a decorated former combat officer in Afghanistan, is a veteran of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO). He served as the reconnaissance office’s representative to the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force from 2019-2021. From late 2021 to July 2022, he was the NGA’s co-lead for UAP analysis and its representative to the task force.

UFO Reverse-Engineering Project Should Be Made Public: Ex-Intel Official

A former intelligence official is calling on the federal government to make information public about an alleged reverse-engineering project involving unidentified flying objects (UFOs).

UFO sightings have long piqued the interests of billions of people across the globe for centuries. Although these sightings are oftentimes easily explained—at times being space objects such as meteors or military equipment—they often lead many to ponder the potential of extraterrestrial life. Recent years have seen renewed focus on UFOs, with many calling for more transparency from the U.S. government about these sightings.

Christopher Mellon, a former deputy assistant secretary of Defense for Intelligence who specializes in UFOs, wrote in a Politico opinion piece published Saturday that he has received reports that the government has engaged in a "reverse engineering project" involving UFOs. He urged the government to make any records public, though these reports could not be independently verified by Newsweek.

Mellon wrote that he has referred four witnesses to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) who claimed to have knowledge about a secret government program "involving the analysis and exploitation of materials recovered from off-world craft," and that other sources have contacted him about an "alleged secret U.S. government reverse engineering program."

Regarding the "fuzzy videos". It is healthy to be skeptical, but those videos are from very expensive systems meant to detect and destroy enemy targets, not for hi def sexy instagram selfies. This is not a case of an out of focus Polaroid of a Bigfoot dating a Yeti. He knew that, but his targeted audience, maybe not. Maybe that was the point? I wouldn't know. I haven't watched any TV in a decade.

Maybe saying people should be careful of any "official UFO stories" coming from any government would've resonated better to me.

No matter how amazing our imagination is, there will be a planetary death of the Sci-Fi industry and everything related to it the day space aliens officially land :cool:

I mean, it's not his "Objective Truth". It is simply - objective truth. You know, sort of like how we know the earth isn't flat and water is wet. :thumbup: But he makes a great point, in that - we have literally billions of smartphones with high definition cameras on them. The world should be flooded with video footage of the same exact little green men that are allegedly visiting us. But.. we're not.

Honestly, I just don't believe the earth - or us - are that significant in the universe to warrant visitation by aliens, let alone the whole idea that they could have made it here to begin with. After all...
“Space [...] is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to space.”
To be clear, I am absolutely convinced that there is life out there in the universe aside from us. Statistically it's just very likely. I just don't believe that traversing interstellar space is a thing. Or ever will be a thing.

What would be the reason for the US government to even talk and push for the little green men story right now all over the news? Is it another psyop to pretend they have extraordinary weapons?

It wouldn't have been the first time an illusion of that scale was deployed for the masses:
The Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI), derisively nicknamed the "Star Wars program", was a proposed missile defense system intended to protect the United States from attack by ballistic strategic nuclear weapons (intercontinental ballistic missiles and submarine-launched ballistic missiles).



Looks like bad acting to me.

Not sure what any of that has to do with what I just said, but I’ll bite: when has anything “the government said” ever been immune to logical scrutiny? The US government is currently split between tin foil hat conspiracy theory deep state wack jobs that lien so extreme right, it makes 1938 Berlin seem tame, and - well - a party that is literally struggling to stay unified. UFO footage does not mean “little green men”. No more than a pink sunset proves the earth is surrounded by a bowl of pink Jell-O.

Again, the earth is an insignificant speck in the vastness of space. The idea that a species is advanced enough to traverse interstellar space and then get caught in grainy footage or crash in New Mexico is the very definition of illogic. The cognitive dissonance required to reconcile that is mind boggling.

What would be the reason for the US government to even talk and push for the little green men story right now all over the news? Is it another psyop to pretend they have extraordinary weapons?
Not sure what any of that has to do with what I just said, but I’ll bite: when has anything “the government said” ever been immune to logical scrutiny? The US government is currently split between tin foil hat conspiracy theory deep state wack jobs that lien so extreme right, it makes 1938 Berlin seem tame, and - well - a party that is literally struggling to stay unified. UFO footage does not mean “little green men”. No more than a pink sunset proves the earth is surrounded by a bowl of pink Jell-O.

Again, the earth is an insignificant speck in the vastness of space.

Nothing to bite. In reality it is just a dialogue more about human nature and the way we behave, than space aliens.

There is nothing insignificant about the Miracle of Earth, especially if the vastness of space is mostly a construct of boredom, nihilism and apathy, aka emptiness.
