'Aliens' Messed With US, Soviet Nukes - US Airmen
RIA Novosti ^ | May 1, 2013

Posted on 05/02/2013 6:04:40 AM PDT by Fennie

WASHINGTON - In the midst of the Cold War on several occasions, nuclear missiles at US Air Force bases were mysteriously shut down, according to US servicemen who said they witnessed the failure of the heavily guarded missile systems.

But they don't blame America's Cold War enemy, the Soviet Union; they say aliens from space did it.

"This was something Russia could have developed, but it turns out they didn't develop this and we don't have it either - to be able to shut down nuclear weapons with a beam of light," David Scott, a former sergeant in the US Air Force, told RIA Novosti at a conference in Washington on encounters with extraterrestrials.

I can’t shake the suspicion that a UFO sighting is somehow at bottom a psychic phenomenon.

But then two questions arise: What is the cause of this phenomenon, and what purpose does it serve?
***The cause of this phenomenon is a secret weapons project by the western allies after WWII, using relatively straightforward boundary layer control technology in which the germans were far ahead at the end of the war. 2 years later, we saw the result.

The purpose it serves is relatively obvious. Asking the converse question of the ET hypothesis, the purpose for crossing thousands of light years to visit this insignificant rock is all over the speculation map.

Come on: genetics? Anal probing? Abductions? Nuclear fear-mongering? Such an advanced civilization wouldn’t need ANY of this baloney, and they certainly wouldn’t need lights when they fly nor would their aircraft be visible. We ourselves are just around the corner of invisibility. All of the technology demonstrated has been “just around the corner”. Just like the 1890’s sightings where the devices flew supposedly 200MPH. Is 200MPH evidence of alien visitation today? Is 1500MPH?

"Asking the converse question of the ET hypothesis, the purpose for crossing thousands of light years to visit this insignificant rock is all over the speculation map."

Actually, IF other civilizations on other planets are able to sense somehow what is living on this planet, even from afar, the events of 1941 - 1952 would be reason to take a closer look. Humankind were developing a means to go off planet, AND humankind developed and used atomic bombs then started testing much bigger bombs (Hiroshima was ~20,000 tonnes of TNT equivalent, whereas hydrogen bombs are millions of tonnes of TNT equivalent).

we assume, perhaps erroneously, that there is no means to traverse many light years at faster than light speed. There is rather recent math now coming out that such 'speed' may in fact be possible.

Here are a couple of quick Youtube videos dealing with the notion of FTL 'speed' ... it really isn't speed, in the classical sense of the word:

***Beings who conquer light speed would have the technology to be visible. They also wouldn’t crash when they got here. But secret weapons — those would crash, and they’d be visible.

Which hypothesis follows Ockham’s Razor more closely?

***Then it should be very simple for you to apply reasoning to them and reveal the absurdity. Instead, you prefer to speculate on the magnificence of extraterrestrials and how so very interesting we must be in this cosmic mix. Yet, with all that extraterrestrial activity, none of us see those guys zipping around the cosmos.

Like Fermi said, “Where are they?”

When they’re flying around faster than light cruising the galaxy, they’re invisible, but when the get here they’re suddenly visible?

The INFORMation of the galaxy existed before those galaxies ever began to spin. The information is an aspect of creation that is outside of TIME. Some information is independent of time.
***Here is a physics finding in support of that assertion.

Entanglement Between Photons that have Never Coexisted

It is possible to entangle photons through both space and time.
Entanglement ignores time as a factor in causation. You can entangle a
photon with another even if the second does not yet exist.

Something to keep in mind: When Einstein wrote his theory of relativity, the speed of light being a Constant was Not Proven. It was a supposition. There was a lot of evidence for its validity, but it still was not proven at the time. Since then... no one has really proven that C is a constant. Recent evidence suggests it really isn’t a constant. Perhaps it is a function of something else, like the (information) discussed upthread, where Einstein’s postulation becomes E = m((C(Informaton))^2 rather than simply E=mC^2.

It becomes a more complicated universe with INFORMation (which existed before the creation of the universe) coming into play.

Thank you for sharing your views, dear Kevmo!

I am not inclined to deny that the speed of light is a constant.

Nor am I prepared to equate information in a physics sense (physical information) to information as it was originally defined in mathematics. Shannon's definition, paraphrased is that information is the reduction of uncertainty in the receiver as it moves from a before state to an after state. Physical information, on the other hand, is roughly equivalent to strong determinism or physical cause/effect if you prefer.

Science has a history of appropriating terms used in mathematics and along with them implied meanings which do not translate accurately to physical systems.

For instance, in mathematics one cannot say something is "random" in a system unless he defines what the system "is." The use of the term in science should not carry with it the same meaning since both the total number and types of dimensions as well as quantum fields/particles are unknown and unknowable. Science cannot deny the existence of a dimension, type of dimension, field or particle if it has no direct or indirect measurable affect.

And yet in common speak, most people I suspect understand "randomness" in science to mean the same thing that it means in mathematics. The mathematics meaning comports with God the Creator theology since only the Creator knows what the system "is."

As another example, a series of numbers extracted from the extension of calculating pi might appear random based on the numbers themselves but we know it is not random at all but highly determined by calculating the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter!

Likewise, the meaning of information as it was originally defined in mathematics (information theory is a discipline of mathematics) requires there be a message, sender, receiver, encoding, decoding, channel and noise. The definition and those elements also comport with God the Creator speaking everything into existence.

But most of these elements do not apply to physical information.

In sum, the original, mathematical, meaning of both words - "information" and "randomness" - correspond extremely well with Scripture. But the actual meaning of the words in science, not so much...

Thanks, Alamo Girl.

***Are you inclined to investigate the possibility? If C were not a constant, what would our world look like? Is there some obvious resulting implication we can point to which puts the kibosh on such a supposition? C shows up in a lot of equations in Physics. Perhaps there’s one that is so critically dependent on C being a constant (rather than having a correction factor where it’s dependent upon something like INFORMation) that you couldn’t even have the color blue, or something like that.

Thank you so much for sharing your concerns, dear Kevmo!

The reason I am not budging on the speed of light derives from the bright line which separates the hard sciences such as physics and chemistry from the soft sciences such as anthropology and archeology.

Essentially, the more a hard science theory is falsifiable and the more attempts to falsify it that it endures, the more confident we can be that the theory is reliable (Popper). The speed of light as a constant has withstood over a 100 years of attempts to falsify it.

Soft science theories, on the other hand, often form blueprints and incoming discoveries are fit into the blueprint. If it doesn't quite fit, the blueprint may be enhanced to accommodate the new discoveries. But the blueprint is taken as a paradigm, e.g. evolution.

As another example, one might might posit that reality is a figment of our individual imaginations. If someone wants to believe such a thing, fine - but it is irrelevant to any endeavor in science since it can neither be tested nor falsified.

Interestingly, in the Big Bang/Inflationary Theory the very early universe itself expanded faster than the speed of light. However, light (photons) did not form until 300,000 years later as measured from our present space/time coordinates.

Bottom line, when I see a falsifiable theory that the speed of light is a variable and it withstands several serious attempts to falsify it, then I will take it to heart. Until then, the speed of light as a constant has earned its stripes in my book.

Actually, after thinking about this for a couple more minutes, it occurs to me that if the speed of light was a rapidly decaying function (not a constant, but billions of years later it sure would look like a constant), then in the early inflationary period, the mass does not have to be propelling faster than the speed of light AT the TIME. So the postulate that something with mass can’t travel faster than C would still survive.

Using only the parameters we have discussed so far, that would make the anisotropy of light to be the simpler theory. It obeys Ockham’s razor.

Seems logically inconsistent to claim the speed of light is not a constant then claim nothing can go ‘faster’ than the speed of light.
