Why would it be dispiriting, when we know it’s a cover-up?
It should have just been named “Project Blue Book II”.
Becasue government credibility is so high. (sarc/off)
I really like Elon Musk’s take on this subject, and I think he probably knows as much about the situation as anyone.... He said if the US military had evidence of aliens landing on earth, they’d be carting it all into Congress and demanding their budgets be tripled to deal with the “alien threat”.
No aliens? Not even at the southern border . . . ?
Chupa Cabra, Bigfoot, Yeti, Space Aliens...
all well-known legends, but no real evidence.
Perhaps they know how to hide evidence of their existence pretty well, but keep leading us on. Not nice.
This could very well why Trump was not able to release any information about UFO’s. There is too much money to be made from making the public believe there is a conspiracy.
So long as there is a possibility of aliens, then the money is almost unlimited to be had by agencies and private grants.
So long as the milk is selling, there is no reason to cash in the cow.
The cover-up continues!

YUP!
THEY LIE!
Are we to believe that we are the ONLY sentient beings in this universe?
Sorry folks.
There are no aliens from space. It’s a sci-fi fantasy.
Think of the logistics.
It took 35 years, from 1977 to 2012 for Voyager to reach the edge of our solar system, several billion miles out. It is now in interstellar space, and it will take 40,000 years to reach the next star system inside our own galaxy.
Any alien life forms would be subject to the same restrictions of time, space and gravity as we are.
People throw around the term ‘light years’ very casually, as if traveling such a distance is humanly possible. One light year is 6 trillion miles, many many many times the distance Voyager managed in 35 years.
The very idea strains all credulity.
For better or worse, we humans are the only intelligent life form known in the entire universe. The only sentient creatures anywhere, which is what makes the sanctity of human life so real.
We are all made in the image of God, not because we look like God, but because we know of the existence of Providence, with a divine spark in all of us.
Leave space aliens to the sci-fi writers, and focus on the human condition.
I could have told you they’d find no evidence. That isn’t the real question however.
UFO fairy tales == String Theory...
“The cover-up continues!”
Bright Star and Blue Book were never there to prove their existance, but to disprove them. A large number of sightings were written off to conjecture rather than facts. Swamp gas, weather baloons, artificially hurled objects with camera use, prism effects, and many other things that were used not as a determination but as an excuse to disprove their possibility.
And the funny thing is that after Blue Book was disbanded in 1969 of a total of 12,618 sightings reported to Project Blue Book, 701 remained “unidentified.” So that means to any common intelligence on this planet, which is more in question than the UFO’s, there were 701 they couldn’t explain. But they were certainly swept under the carpet.
That means that of the ones sited, 5% they couldn’t tell you why they were there at all. And that’s still over 700 events. So I guess if it doesn’t exist, and you have used up your ideas that can’t be used in the 700 events because there were no balloons, or swamp gas as it was in the desert, I guess it just didn’t actually happen?

I’m sure there are UFOs. I’m equally sure they have a terrestrial origin. We’ve explored the solar system to the extent that we’re sure there is no intelligent life outside of earth, and when I look at the Democrat party’s voters I’m not sure there is any here. However, the size of the universe and the laws of physics preclude interstellar visitors. Those of you who come up with the “we don’t know everything and there might be a way to travel faster than light” are living in a world of imagination. Science fiction is not science. And your hypothesis is nothing more than “here a miracle occurs” Do the math. Remember that Einstein doesn’t do away with Newton. The amount of energy needed to go 1/2 light speed is 1/8 MCsquared. Ie 1/8 of the mass of whatever you’re accelerating converted totally to energy. And you’ll need the same amount to slow it down again at the end of its journey. There isn’t any process that can convert mass completely to energy. In nuclear fission 0.1% of the mass is converted to energy. Fusion is a little better with 0.37% of the mass converted to energy. The universe is just too big and the speed of light to slow to allow interstellar travel

Ross says that people on the inside of the Pentagon are telling him that the excuse given is that the Pentagon is protecting the national security value of technology derived from "vehicles" recovered.
But Ross said that he increasingly concludes that what is happening is that a small group inside the military-industrial complex is trying to protect itself from embarrassment and possible criminal retribution by the American public because of their covert operations/actions re: this matter.
Has Greta Thunberg weighed in?
