Did it pop when they attempted to make contact with it?

I’ll just say this, watch Close Encounters of the fifth kind it is a documentary and Jeremy Pivens discusses and shows quite a bit of footage and gives us hints as to what coming on the globalist script.

The fact that the pilot didn’t bother to report it or investigate it tells me it’s a big nothing.

You said that human can travel faster than light in a medium. That’s complete horseshit, unless you know something I don’t.


I said no such thing. That claim is complete horseshit. You need to reread what I posted. Nowhere does it claim or make mention of humans travelling at any rate of speed. So I call bullcrap on your horseshit. Reading Comprehension ever heard of it? Try using it.

So its moving a lot faster than a balloon.
And I guess it needs to be pretty large for them to see it and get a picture of it?

“By leveraging this property of nature, we truly can go faster than light.”

Did you post the above?

This Is How Physicists Trick Particles Into Going Faster Than Light

The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it.
The Advanced Test Reactor core at Idaho National Laboratory isn’t glowing blue because there are any... [+] blue lights involved, but rather because this is a nuclear reactor producing relativistic, charged particles that are surrounded by water. When the particles pass through that water, they exceed the speed of light in that medium, causing them to emit Cherenkov radiation, which appears as this glowing blue light.

Nothing can move faster than the speed of light. When Einstein set forth his theory of relativity, this was his inviolable postulate: that there was an ultimate cosmic speed limit, and that only massless particles could ever attain it. All massive particles could only approach it, but would never reach it. The speed of light, according to Einstein, was the same for all observers in all reference frames, and no form of matter could ever attain it.

But this interpretation of Einstein omits an important caveat: all of this is only true in the vacuum of purely, perfectly empty space. Through a medium of any type — whether that’s air, water, glass, acrylic, or any gas, liquid, or solid — light travels at a measurably slower speed. Energetic particles, on the other hand, are only bound to travel slower than light in a vacuum, not light in a medium. By leveraging this property of nature, we truly can go faster than light.

Light emitted by the Sun travels through the vacuum of space at exactly 299,792,458 m/s: the... [+] ultimate cosmic speed limit. As soon as that light strikes a medium, however, including something like Earth’s atmosphere, those photons will drop in speed as they move only at the speed of light through that medium. While no massive particle can ever attain the speed of light in a vacuum, it can easily attain or even exceed the speed of light in a medium.

Imagine a ray of light that travels directly away from the Sun. In the vacuum of space, if no particles or matter are present, it will indeed travel at the ultimate cosmic speed limit, c: 299,792,458 m/s, the speed of light in a vacuum. Although humanity has produced extremely energetic particles in colliders and accelerators — and detected even more energetic particles coming from extragalactic sources — we know we cannot break this limit.

At the LHC, the accelerated protons can reach speeds up to 299,792,455 m/s, just 3 m/s below the speed of light. At LEP, which accelerated electrons and positrons instead of protons in the same CERN tunnel that the LHC now occupies, the top particle speed was 299,792,457.9964 m/s, which is the fastest accelerated particle ever created. And the highest-energy cosmic ray clocks in with an extraordinary speed of 299,792,457.999999999999918 m/s, which would lose a race with a photon to Andromeda and back by only six seconds.

How idiotic are you to not read a post that says nothing about humans and then attribute it to what someone said. Man your spin makes even you dizzy.

Besides get with the thread. The thread is about aliens and UFOs. Unless you know something we don’t....

You need to change your name from dinodino to dododo because yeah just that.

There are what’s called “seed ships” or “generational ships,” that are large enough to carry enough crew with enough space on board to reproduce, ensuring that the craft reaches its destination. Or a large number of crew is frozen/put into stasis, then thawed as necessary to ensure a constant number of crew. This is all at subluminal speed, so as to not “violate” “laws” of physics.

The thread is about UFOs, and you posted stating that “we” can travel faster than light. You posted that assertion to support your argument that the UFO under discussion is an actual alien spacecraft, and not the mylar party balloon it appears to be. Who was the “we” you referred to? “We” humans, or “we” aliens?

That is the most profound, but incorrect postulate, to argue that biological and physical entities can visit earth from even the nearest stars. Sorry, its not possible. Consider that if there are puzzling phenomena and there are aliens responding to our broadcasts, they are sending EM transmissions and are using our atmosphere as a giant projection screen to sensitize us. Perhaps more astonishing and definitive transmissions are forthcoming. (hopefully in English).Howver there cannot be biological and material entities visiting earth.


According to you with the state of art technology that we have. How do you not know there are more advanced civilizations out there that are not of the human kind? Innovation has always started with the same type of claim. Oh we can’t do that because it is not possible, bullcrap like that would have prevented the progress of civilization.

I never said humans and I never said we do this. However, it is not out of the realm of possibility that it possible. Here read this article about your theory that it is not possible rooted in Einstein’s Theory of Special Relativity. Just because you think something cannot be done, doesn’t mean that it cannot be done. The lightbulb would have never been invented otherwise.

Was Einstein Wrong About Space Travel?

March 22, 2006: Consider a pair of brothers, identical twins. One gets a job as an astronaut and rockets into deep space. The other stays on Earth. When the traveling twin returns home, he discovers he’s younger than his brother.

This is Einstein’s Twin Paradox, and although it sounds strange, it is absolutely true. The theory of relativity tells us that the faster you travel through space, the slower you travel through time. Rocketing to Alpha Centauri—warp 9, please—is a good way to stay young.

Or is it?

Some researchers are beginning to believe that space travel could have the opposite effect. It could make you prematurely old.

see caption
Above: Albert Einstein’s theory of Special Relativity says that time slows down for fast-moving space travelers, effectively keeping them young. Space radiation acting on telomeres could reverse the effect. [More]

“The problem with Einstein’s paradox is that it doesn’t fold in biology—specifically, space radiation and the biology of aging,” says Frank Cucinotta, NASA’s chief scientist for radiation studies at the Johnson Space Center.

While the astronaut twin is hurtling through space, Cucinotta explains, his chromosomes are exposed to penetrating cosmic rays. This can damage his telomeres—little molecular “caps” on the ends of his DNA. Here on Earth, the loss of telomeres has been linked to aging.

So far, the risk hasn’t been a major concern: The effect on shuttle and space station astronauts, if any, would be very small. These astronauts orbit inside of Earth’s protective magnetic field, which deflects most cosmic rays.

But by 2018, NASA plans to send humans outside of that protective bubble to return to the moon and eventually travel to Mars. Astronauts on those missions could be exposed to cosmic rays for weeks or months at a time. Naturally, NASA is keen to find out whether or not the danger of “radiation aging” really exists, and if so, how to handle it.

Science is only now beginning to look at the question. “The reality is, we have very little information about [the link between] radiation and telomere loss,” says Jerry Shay, a cell biologist at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas. With support from NASA, Shay and others are studying the problem. What they learn about aging could benefit everyone, on Earth and in space.

A Lit Fuse

Like the fuse of a time bomb, telomeres are long strands of repeating DNA that shorten each time a cell divides. When the telomeres become too short, the cell’s time is up: It can no longer divide, a state of affairs known as “replicative senescence.”

see caption
Without this built-in fuse, human cells would be able to continue growing and dividing indefinitely. In fact, scientists believe that cells evolved telomeres as a way of preventing the out-of-control cell growth of cancerous tumors. Because of telomeres, most human cells can only divide 50 to 100 times before the time bomb goes off.

One current theory of aging holds that, as the cells of a person’s body start to hit this telomere-imposed limit, the lack of fresh, new cells causes the typical signs of aging: wrinkled skin, failing organs, weaker immune system, etc.

Whether or not telomere loss actually causes aging remains a matter of debate, Shay notes. The fact that shortened telomeres go hand in hand with aging is well documented. People with shorter telomeres, for example, are known to not live as long on average as people with longer telomeres. But mere correlation doesn’t prove whether telomeres are in fact the cause.

“It’s hard to prove cause and effect in these things. But I think there’s a sufficient number of these correlative studies from a variety of different investigators that one has to start believing that short telomeres are a marker of aging,” Shay says.

Recent research, performed by Frank Cucinotta and colleagues, showed that iron-nuclei radiation (a chief component of cosmic rays) does indeed damage the telomeres of human cells: reference.

see caption
To prove this, they exposed laboratory dishes containing a kind of human blood cell called lymphocytes to beams of both iron nuclei and gamma rays. Until recently, such a thorough analysis of telomere damage would have been prohibitively time consuming. But a new cell-staining technique called RxFISH (Rainbow cross-species Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization) allowed Cucinotta and his colleagues to look at many telomeres simultaneously.
Left: Human chromosomes revealed by RxFISH. Image credit: NASA/JSC. [More]

“We had this surprising result that iron particles are much more damaging to telomeres than gamma rays,” Cucinotta says. He suggests that this difference might be due to the wider path of damage caused by iron nuclei. Telomere strands wrap into elongated loops, like little knots on the ends of chromosomes. Gamma rays can only strike one side of these loops or the other, but iron nuclei can affect both sides at the same time, inflicting lasting damage on the telomere—possibly causing its complete deletion. This explanation is still speculative, however.

The task now is to quantify the risk telomere damage might pose to astronauts, so that mission managers and the astronauts themselves can make informed decisions about the risks they face. In all likelihood, the effects will be modest, Shay says.

“We’re talking about subtle things. These people are probably not going to wind up in wheelchairs or something like that from being in space,” Shay says.

see caption
For example, astronauts who have had the greatest exposure to space radiation, such as the Apollo astronauts who traveled to the Moon, tend to get cataracts about 7 years earlier than other astronauts, on average. Cataracts are a common symptom of aging. Right: Iron nuclei are especially damaging to telomeres. [

Of greater concern is possible aging of the brain and spinal cord. Experiments with rats have shown that brain tissue is vulnerable to “aging” by iron-nuclei radiation—this according to research by Jim Joseph of Tufts University and Bernie Rabin at the University of Maryland. (See references below.)

“It is looking more and more likely that this could be a problem for long-term space travel,” Cucinotta says.

However, if scientists can tease apart the exact ways that iron-particle radiation affects telomeres, they may be able find a way to avoid or correct it. The solution could be as simple as a pill containing DNA-repair molecules. “There are many ways that we can intervene,” Shay says.

One way or another, NASA plans to keep their astronauts feeling young.

Editor’s note: This story should not be construed to mean that Einstein’s theory of Special Relativity is wrong. It is correct. The Twin Paradox was concocted in Einstein’s day to illustrate time dilation only. It was never intended to treat all aspects of space travel. The newly discovered effect of space radiation on telomeres is the “paradox on the paradox,” says Frank Cucinotta.

“However, the Hornet is not hovering in space. It is clearly following the object at some non trivial speed. Even at stall, around 185MPH(155ish knots), you could never get a picture of it with your phone. By the time it got close, it’d be past.”

You very well could be correct.

But, going by to my Dorito bag experience (post 14) that bag was whipped up by the wind, going quick fast at altitude.

It sucked along with me, quite close (meters away), due to the weird way air acts when an object flies through it at high speed. I thought it was far away and huge, but it was very close, and just moving back and forth a couple of meters.

The entire incident lasted seconds, but I suppose if I had a passenger, he could have gotten a photo.
