A report to Congress from the Pentagon and various intelligence agencies about sightings of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) by military personnel is scheduled to be made public shortly. The report reportedly concludes that some of the UFOs are likely real objects whose nature cannot be assessed with any confidence.

The possibility that the Pentagon UFOs are human-made can potentially be excluded by identifying behavior that cannot be reproduced by our most advanced equipment. We know our technological limits because any advance that goes well beyond them would have introduced major commercial or military benefits and would have been represented in the consumer market or on the battlefield.
Nevertheless, most people might choose to ignore the Pentagon report and maintain an attitude of business as usual. My daughter told me explicitly that she will not miss her routine soccer match on the day that the report is made public, irrespective of its content. At a recent forum about my popular-level book Extraterrestrial and new textbook Life in the Cosmos, I was asked how long humans could ignore extraterrestrial intelligent life. I replied: “Humans may choose to remain ignorant forever. They can refuse to recognize a reality that does not flatter their ego, like the simple idea that we are not the smartest species that in the Milky Way.”
But reality does not care whether we ignore it or not.

The Pentagon has access to much more data than it releases to the public. Its report is expected to say that the reality of some UFOs is beyond doubt but that their nature requires further study. It is therefore an opportune time for the scientific community to take a closer look at UFOs by collecting and analyzing new data with the finest instruments and computers in a controlled setup.

My uncle - who’s in his late nineties now - was an Air Force pilot in the early 1950’s. He saw one in broad daylight, chased it and had a similar OMG reaction when the thing took off at speeds he knew were not possible. In his case he only shared the event with my father and his wife.
Bingo
I did the math and Voyager 1 currently is 14.163 billion miles from earth. The time light would travel that distance is about 21.1 hours. Not even a single 24h light day yet.
Whatever is behind this scheme is purportedly quite intelligent and wily.
As an aside, we don't know what is true about any of this stuff. But as John Mack, Harvard Medical School prof and psychiatrist (now deceased), has said, something is going on here, we just have to figure out what.
This is worth a listen—some interesting concepts you may not have considered:

Even if you disagree with most of what Terence McKenna says, you will still learn some now stuff.
The guy was off the charts brilliant.
“Destroy the language and institutions.
And I can assume at that point there is no belief in God, also, because the use of institutions has already precluded that?
Makes you wonder if those piloting the disregarded UFO’s have a belief in a deity?

I don’t think that speculation is really logically sound.
“Wormholes are real.”
No, wormholes are a theoretical possibility we’ve yet to observe, and one which would likely obliterate any matter that passed into them, even if they did exist.
Avi Loeb, the former chair of the Harvard Astronomy Dept, said today IIRC that it can be concluded that this tech is not ours or Chinese/Russian because it has been observed for a very long time (70 years is the number being tossed around).
It is likely that such a technological development would have had some by-products which would be in evidence in the world today...but that is not the case.
Could you use a slightly smaller image to spam threads. This one is nothing but an eye-sore.
Perhaps I need a late afternoon cup of coffee.
Here's what Avi Loeb said in the article above re: your question:

“No, wormholes are a theoretical possibility we’ve yet to observe, and one which would likely obliterate any matter that passed into them, even if they did exist.”
A theory to us at our current level of understanding and technology. By comparison the craft and technology we are seeing is way above our primitive level of understanding and technology.
“By comparison the craft and technology we are seeing is way above our primitive level of understanding and technology.”
I don’t think there’s much evidence to support that statement.
I have seen them twice. And there is no technology we have that I know of that can reproduce these capabilities. I keep saying it, once seen they cannot be unseen. No amount of outside skepticism will change this.
And I am not alone here, I hope that someday you might have the chance to see one. It will indeed change your mind and skepticism from then on.
I’ll think about it.
I like it. Just a wee bit smaller.:-)
I’m nearly blind so it’s hard for me to see/read, sorry ‘bout that
“Many stories in the city”. . .
Of that there is no doubt. That said, what would attract these greatly advanced civilizations to our primitive galaxy? Just askin.
