Mysteries intrigue the human mind. Things you don’t understand or can’t see. Mysteries draw you in, books, TV shows, real-life, even lingerie. You want to see, to understand.
I don’t mean stupid mysteries like algebra. I mean scientific stuff. Our country has just gone through a messy pandemic year full of scary scientific mysteries that government folks were afraid to admit they really didn’t understand (or, that they did, and why).
So, they pretended to understand this new mysterious virus and what to do about it. We were afraid, so fell for their charade of dictums–two weeks to flatten the curve. Then, maybe two months. Job-crushing, savings-draining lockdowns. Masks for everyone everywhere. Perhaps two of them. Other hokum.
As a result, now and for some future time, millions of us newly-trained cynics from the University of Covid will dismiss all kinds of government warnings. They may indeed prove accurate ultimately, but no one wants to be a sucker in this age of information and misinformation. So, they’ll be dismissed out of hand.
Now, we come to one mystery that has endured for decades. But wait. We may finally be on the verge of solving at least part of it.
Flying saucers. Unidentified Flying Objects. Or in Pentagon vernacular, Unidentified Aerial Phenomena.
Over the years thousands have claimed to see UFOs, weird objects, or lights in the sky that appeared to do things our minds can’t explain or grasp. Many such reports proved fraudulent, the product of vivid imaginations, light phenomenon, even too much Budweiser.
Incidents were catalogued and closed away in a secretive Pentagon, sparking conspiracy theories, as our Townhall Media colleague Jazz Shaw has written at HotAir. A couple of years ago two convincing Navy videos were leaked by experts then confirmed as genuine. Watch them here.
Caught by sophisticated gun cameras and radars near military equipment off both coasts, they show lighted objects moving and maneuvering at high speeds. They have no apparent engines, control surfaces, or cockpits. In one case the object plunges into the ocean at high speed, emerging elsewhere.
Two highly-trained Super Hornet pilots told of approaching the object, which maneuvered around them and then, poof, disappeared. Activate cloaking device?
Last December, while everyone’s mind was consumed by media’s panic porn of the virus from China and election results Donald Trump’s camp found non-credible, Florida’s Marco Rubio, then chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, inserted in the Covid relief bill a requirement for the Pentagon and intelligence community to finally draft an unclassified report detailing what is known and unknown about UFOs.
That report is due next month. There seem to be three possibilities:
These objects are either super-secret U.S. technology, foreign technology far beyond anything known to our government, or an unexplained, potentially alien presence. What’s not secret are the obvious national security implications that not even Will Smith could handle.
Gallup has done some polling about UFOs. It found, believe it or not, real bipartisan agreement: 30 percent of Republicans and 32 percent of Democrats agree these craft are alien from another planet or galaxy. Independents were even more convinced (38 percent). I’m kinda drifting in that direction too, to be honest.
A clear majority (60 percent) still believe there’s some other explanation for UFOs, probably human-related. Seven percent don’t know anything, like Adam Schiff.
However, many more Americans say they do believe there is life beyond Washington. No, I mean that there is life elsewhere in the universe. Three-quarters say there is “life of some form” somewhere. Nearly half (49 percent) think there are “people like ourselves” living on other planets.
Can you imagine one of NASA’s amazing planetary rovers transmitting images back to Earth? Scientists call them up on desktop screens. And there, from the farthest frozen reaches of space staring back into the lens, all grins, is an alien photobomber.
You obviously have not read the book.
Of course, Captain Obvious, that’s why they are called Ufo’s. People are left to use their imagination. Is that a bad thing?
So... you ARE calling the aeronautical luminaries Ludwig Prandtl and Oscar Schrenk to be NAZIs. And all without reading the pertinent material.
With cognitive abilities as weak as you have demonstrated, it’s easy to see how you would fall for that nonsense extraterrestrial hypothesis.
No, I'm saying YOU are another random nobody floating another BS theory. You've got nothing. No proof of anything. And I never said anything about ETs except that it's BS conjecture. Just like BS theory that you're pushing, but can't back up.
If you want to know the real, REAL truth behind UFOs, it's Bigfoot flying kites. Some are hang gliders!. (gosh!!!) If you read a book I'm desperately trying to promote, "Are You Ready for Yeti? - a Primer on Building Kites Out Of Old Raccoon Skins and Twigs", you would know that.
Good reading. Betty and Barney were involved in civil rights at the time, with lots of debunkers popping up after the event, calling Barney a publicity seeker. It was the first widely-reported abduction report.
James Earl Jones convincingly played Barney falling apart under hypnosis in "The UFO Incident".
You’re simply full of shiite. 💩You criticize a book you’ve never read, a book that proves flying saucers are a secret boundary layer control aircraft, and you do it in a most ugly and ignorant fashion. 🤮😱🚽🔚
Sure I am. That's why I'm trying to sell my book "Are You Ready for Yeti?" which proves UFOS are actually Bigfoots flying kites. But you still haven't presented anything except to hawk a book that "proves" UFOs are "shhhh, super secret aircraft". So instead of complaining that nobody is buying your crappy book (and the bogus theory you base it on) Why don't you simply provide evidence of a sighting involving a super-duper-boundry-layer-secret airplane.
Cite a case. Present a photo if you're so sure of yourself.
Here's your chance to be a hero.
Sketch of witness sighting: 
Cow Mutilation caught on camera shortly after above sighting: 
You’re more attached to being an @$$wipe over ufology than you are to conservatism.
Correct. Ufology has nothing to do with Conservatism.
And again, you provide no evidence of your claim.
I'll help you. Do you know what this is? Can you identify this object?
Some kind of ducted fan experimental [subsonic] plane.
Do you know how many times greater the lift coefficient of an airfoil is when you have complete control of the boundary layer? Do you know how much skin friction percentage accounts for the drag component at supersonic speeds?
No, you do not. But it doesn’t stop you from being an @$$wipe over a secret program that overcomes these barriers. And, since it IS a secret weapons program, it has plenty to do with conservatism so put a sock in it.
Read the book.
No. You posited that ufos are "secret" airplanes. It's up to you to prove it. Not sure why you are unable to back up your thesis right here.
I at least showed evidence that ufos are Bigfoots flying kites.
But it doesn’t stop you from being an @$$wipe over a secret program that overcomes these barriers
LOL! As if ad hominem makes your argument any better.
All you given is: "It's a 'secret program' that nobody is knows about, but you can read all about it in my book that nobody will buy."
Present your evidence. Here.
That’s a Marvellete!
But I think BLC is better described in fluids as the observed ability of trout to hold position seemingly motionless against the current of a stream.
Sounds like you're talking about the work of Viktor Schauberger who worked for the nazis.
So, to pull our freeper ufo together, you and your craft weigh nothing, is powered and directed by BLC tech device that takes air in one end and makes it come out insanely fast the other, and is covered in TV screen that can camo it into whatever shape desired.
I need one.
Why yes...no aliens, just Germans.
Yah! Damn that’s good...
Just what I’m talkin bout.
Did you do that? Cause I’m takin’ it.
Not at all. I'm a big fan of science fiction. But until there is tangible proof, Sci Fi is all it is. And I say this as someone who personally saw structured "things" on two different occasions which defy prosaic explanation.
But if you're going to say, ETs, demons, interdimensionals, nazis, faeries, djinn, Kelly Johnson, et al...you need to bring strong evidence, otherwise my theory of Bigfoot with kites stands tall.
No, numbnuts. It was the work of aeronautical luminaries like Ludwig Prandtl and Oscar Schrenk. As has already been posted to you. But your preference is to remain ignorant.
