Stanford professor says aliens are ‘100 per cent’ on earth, US is ‘reverse-engineering downed UFOs’

A Stanford professor who has researched unidentified aerial phenomena for the US government says he believes extraterrestrial intelligence has not only visited earth but “it’s been here a long time and it’s still here”.

Dr Garry Nolan also claimed that whistleblowers who have worked on “reverse-engineering downed craft” had recently given classified testimony to Congress, creating a “hornet’s nest in Washington”.

Dr Nolan, a Professor of Pathology at Stanford University School of Medicine who has published more than 300 research articles and holds 40 US patents, made the bombshell comments during a talk at the Salt iConnections conference in New York on Thursday titled “The Pentagon, Extraterrestrial Intelligence and Crashed UFOs”.

The respected researcher is one of the most accomplished scientists publicly studying the phenomenon, including by analysing the brains of people who say they’ve experienced a UFO encounter.

During the session, moderator Alex Klokus, founder and managing partner of Salt Fund, asked Dr Nolan, “Do you believe that extraterrestrial intelligence has visited planet earth?”

“I think you can go a step further — it hasn’t just visited, it’s been here a long time and it’s still here,” Dr Nolan replied.

“The creation of a whistleblower program specifically that allows people from within who, I’m going to say this, have been working on the reverse-engineering programs, reverse-engineering of objects, so that they can come in and break their oaths but specifically just to talk to Congress and give that information in classified settings.”

He added, “And the most recent one that happened was just last weekend and it created quite a hornet’s nest in Washington.”

I have formed a belief that you are a poor judge of evidence who has a religious belief in aliens visiting earth. You are entitled to your religion, and I hope it helps you.

I am most certainly not an atheist, and if you inferred that I am I’d also opine that your cognitive skills need significant improvement. Good luck.

Where did I say that I believe aliens are visiting Earth? Where did you get that idea?

Look at all your insults...even including lies.

You took a rather nasty turn there for a person who believes in God.

Today is a good day to miss the late former Freeper known as Quix.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Not buying it. 🙄

[RoosterRedux]

I always think of him when I see this kind of article.

[RoosterRedux]

And you may be correct, GG. We’ll have to wait and see.

[OKSooner]

Me too. He might not have been right about everything but he wasn’t far from right about Martians and flying saucers, etc.

[RoosterRedux]

He used to email me from time to time. A genuinely nice person. He came back to FR under a new name a few years after being banned by Jim but he never gave me his new FR handle.

I encouraged him to kiss and make up with Jim because Jim's a good guy (he has reinstated and forgiven me many times)...but Quix wouldn't do it.

reverse engineering of highly advanced alien technology would be akin to ancient Myans trying to reverse engineer an Intel CPU chip ... it’s not possible ...

it’s complete fantasy that the human race could make nearly instantaneous leaps into super advanced technologies and science by emulating super advanced alien technology and science if only we could be exposed to such ... technology and science growth is a process of accretion of additional knowledge and technology based on the foundation of existing knowledge and science ... technology and science growth are fundamentally an evolutionary process, with rare spurts of revolutionary advances ...

Oh boy! Another "I know 100% what the deal is" carny barker. I'll stick to my own rule of thumb.

If someone says there are UFOs and they are 100% piloted by aliens - don't believe them.

If someone says there are UFOs and they are 100% demonic - don't believe them.

If someone says there are no UFOs but if there are they are 100% secret military projects - don't believe them.

If someone says there are no UFOs and everyone is mistaking weather balloons - don't believe them.

If someone says there are UFOs and they are 100% interdimensionals - don't believe them.

If someone says there are UFOs and they are 100% time travelers - don't believe them.

If someone says they saw a UFO - eh...maybe. What it was I doubt anybody knows.

maybe he shouldnt have said anything until he presented the evidence

I found this intriguing:

"If they’re so frigging advanced why are they crashing? Because what’s crashing is not actual living things. I use this example a lot — if you wanted to study a tribe of cannibals in the middle of the Amazon, are you going to go yourself and show up in the middle of the tribe and not hopefully become dinner? If you’re an advanced intelligence, you’re not going to put your life and limb at risk by coming here.”

Dr Nolan said “mostly what you’re seeing here are either drones or some sort of advanced AI or whatever it is”.

Good thing they've discredited those ridiculous claims of reverse engineering downed UFOs.

[38special]

Total BS

[Justa]

Meh, ppl used to say the same things about automobiles when they first showed up.

Until there’s a dealership selling these things they’ll just be rumor and gossip.

[Getready]

Another distraction for the short term memory voters? I remember NASA announcing they had found “fossils” on Mars ( was the reporting headline ) smack dab in the middle of the 1996 presidential elections.
Turned out what it was, was supposed”chemical fossils”...supposed chemical residue from a living thing in a meteorific rock found in Antarctica. Supposedly the meteor was from Mars. They “knew” it was from Mars becuz gas inclusions in the rock was of similar composition of the Martian atmosphere millions or billions of years ago. Oh, yeah, right....
Turns out the chemical residue could have been easily produced from non living chemical processes.
A total hyperbolic invention. The world ain’t a simulation. It’s click-bait.

[dearolddad]

What concrete proof does the good prof. offer?

[Lazamataz]

whistleblowers who have worked on “reverse-engineering downed craft”

...because any aliens advanced enough to travel light years of distance, from far-away star systems, are utterly incapable of locating and retrieving their vehicles from the far-more-powerful humans.

LOL

[proust]

Except there ain’t no craft and he’s got nothing. Waste of time.

[MikelTackNailer]

"because any aliens advanced enough to travel light years of distance, from far-away star systems, are utterly incapable of locating and retrieving their vehicles from the far-more-powerful humans."

"Ack ack. Ack ack ack ack! (What a hoot!)"

[aculeus]

Horse feathers!

If there are UFOs why must they be aliens?

They could be future earthlings who’ve mastered time travel.

Far-fetched? A lot less than aliens travelling millions of miles to visit us.
