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.
I do not “believe” in UFOs.
I believe UFOs are unexplained phenomena.
I’d down one and haul it home. Take it apart.
Explain it.
All the hoopla is just milking a cow so as to manipulate the public.
Have the aliens come to save us from the communists?

"Always keep a threat at the city gates even if you have to pay for it yourself."...Machiavelli's The Prince
I’ve always been annoyed by the question. It’s like “do you believe drugs should be legalized?”.
Project Blue Beam....
When the UFOs tell you Democrats are good, Republicans are evil, and cut CO2 to save the planet... Then you will know it’s a Deep State fake.
This is another head fake. Don’t fall fake space allien B.S.
And alien technology, too! ~ BS, you don't know squat.
"It's demons!" ~ said someone else that doesn't know squat.
"It's interdimensionals!" ~ said someone else that doesn't know squat.
"It's time travelers!" ~ said someone else that doesn't know squat.
"It's mass psychosis!" ~ said someone else that doesn't know squat.
"They are all weather balloons!" ~ said someone else that doesn't know squat.
"It's left over Nazis from Antarctica!" ~ said someone else that doesn't know squat.
"It's demons!" ~ said someone else that doesn't know squat.
"It's swamp gas!" ~ said someone else that doesn't know squat.
"It's ball lighting" ~ said someone else that doesn't know squat.
Well, you get the picture. Anybody saying they know jack doesn't know squat. Just a bunch of theories.
Sometimes a green background but still fuzzy. Can't believe the military hasn't upgraded it's cameras in 50 years. GoPro cameras are pretty cheap and self stabilizing.
That guy is great, and that video exposes the nonsense really well.
lolz. We haven’t developed an aircraft in public or in secret that represented a generational leap in aeronautical engineering in 70+ years, not since the Bell P-59 from 1942.
The F-117 and the B2 were both huge leaps forward in material science, but not aeronautics. The B2 is based on a design that dates back to just after WWII and the F-117 is a lumbering, clumsy ‘fighter’ that would likely lose to a 2nd gen fight in dog fight. There’s a reason both airplanes operate at night and that reason is once you can see them, they’re dead.
The craft that have been been observed optically and on radar and infrared systems from 2004 Nimitz incident represent a leap forward that dwarfs the technology delta between the Wright Brothers first airplane and the space shuttle. Whatever those things were, they weren’t built by this government or any government.
I think if there were aliens, they would stay far away after seeing how stupid we are.
You would look at it differently if you read just read only one book outlining the military development of boundary layer control aircraft.
“Intercept UFO” by Renato Vesco.
They are here to set up Earth Colony, now that joe biden has eliminated the borders.
UFO’s are OUR technology.
You might be right. But how is the Pentagon to comply with Sen. Rubio’s amendment calling for a non-classified report if the so-called UFO’s are really some sort of drone aircraft?
Is the Pentagon going to de-classify something they’ve spent tens of Billions developing within ‘black budgets’? The whole reason they do this stuff is to give us an ‘edge’.
is Durham going to indict 20 or so corrupt government officials?
She looks like you forgot her birthday..
“Do you believe in UFOs?” should always be a yes. Plenty of stuff in they sky can be unidentified.
The question is “What are the UFOs that can’t be explained as natural or man-made phenomena?” and we’re not going to get an answer. This is a distraction.
Remember, we still don’t who killed Epstein, and the folks responsible for guarding him got off with community service.

It would appear that this object is like a Tesla driving around a Model T.
With such an apparently overwhelming technological advantage relative to anything we have why do the UFO's seemingly avoid more prolonged and direct contact? I mean, there is no reason for these presumed craft to avoid us if they're that advanced. Unlesss...it's something we have developed.
