Over the last century, we have seen an exponential increase in the understanding of the physical universe. International observatories on Earth and in space have produced magnificent images spanning the full range from the small scale of black holes to the large-scale structure of the entire observable universe. Now, we are in the midst of a discovery of even greater magnitude, but few are even acknowledging it. And incredibly, it is what many regard as the modern icon of quack science – unidentified objects, traditionally labeled UFOs, that may represent technological equipment manufactured by an advanced extraterrestrial civilization.
Almost overnight UFOs have gained acceptance by the government and some in academia as worthy of scientific study. With this shift came a new label from the U.S. military: unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP). Now, they are increasing the target of dedicated research, including Harvard University’s Galileo Project in search for extraterrestrial equipment near earth as well as Stanford University's independent research program on unusual materials. They are also the reason behind the establishment of a new office in the Pentagon charged with establishing a science plan to:
1) Account for characteristics and performance of UAP that exceed known science or technology, including propulsion, aerodynamics, materials, sensors, countermeasures, weapons, electronics and power generation
2) Provide the foundation for possible investments to replicate these advanced characteristics and performance
In fact, this language is the direct result of members of Congress including it in the 2022 National Defense Authorization Act.
All this has stemmed from three videos of UAPs captured by Navy pilots and officially released by the Pentagon in 2020.

Well, there has to be something to connect the strong delusion to, so the survivors swallow it whole.
The government has, indeed, being lying about those things for many years. Among the reasons are "not wise to admit we can't do anything about them" and "society cannot deal with such a truth".
Many misguided "people of Faith" are especially vulnerable to rational breakdown when they consider the prospect of ET. They somehow think the Bible tells them that there are no ETs, leaving them with the notion that such beings could only be demons. The Bible does not actually provide any information whatsoever regarding such topics.
Hey, I want to believe! Can you share ANY evidence that there is life in other places?
As far as what we know, space beyond the reach of out interstellar probes could be an elaborate projection. As silly as that sounds, it is just as possible as any other construct. The possibility of life on other worlds is speculation without evidence.
Gotcha.
I am Series, and don’t call me Shirley…
To assume that we know everything about physics at this point in time is a very risky stance.
They are already here, and have been for a long time, and have already taken control- they’re called Liberals.
If UFOs have been identiifed, they are really only FOs. And if they have landed, they are just Os.
Not necessarily.
Secular people have lately begun to speculate that these "others" seem to be having a deleterious effect on those humans observing them and that this effect might be characterized as "not well-intended" or even "evil."
The space bugs are douchenozzles. Don’t let ‘em stare you in the eyes.
That statement indicates that you believe religious faith is something only humans living in the Dark Ages would have...and that is not at all true.
Think outside the box and you will realize that a lot of scientists and people of high intelligence are men of faith.
I don’t know about other folks, but I start with the observation that these things are ‘something’.
We can consider them to be from another planet, another dimension, or multiple other speculations. We intensely examine the years since Roswell, but historical accounts that lack the technical understanding of our world are dismissed.
My observation about ‘demons’ is an attempt to bring together accounts from not only our current observations but ancient accounts too. People have seen things in the sky for a long time. But instead of denying ET, or dressing them up like Steven Spielberg, why not take a longer view?
It also might explain the weird 57-gender thing they are pushing. Maybe ET isn't binary-gendered, but more like a sliding scale of multiple genders for reproductive purposes.
I even explored the concept a long time ago, in my "True Story" on my home page.
"I had done my homework on this dangerous alien race. It appears that in order for the Forshund to procreate, they needed need the Trok, which serves as a place to plant the Motroy. The Trok genetalia consists of something vaguely resembling a catchers mitt. The Ponufti must take his/her lopki, which looks like two spheres suspended on a y-fork stick, and twirl them around the the Yepmens morglot, which looks like a spiral pig tail. These actions cause the spontaneous emission of Frogni Vapors, in which is the building blocks of the Motroy. That is where this Forshund came in.
Of course, the role of the Forshund Zelorian is amazingly involved and utterly disgusting that even Michael Jackson recoiled in horror when I told him. There is a 12-volume manual on even the basic sexual act of Trunorianing .... much less, the Mott!"
Good discounts on Amazon when you go through the AAA app.
Not only that but we also have to enter economics into the equation. Lets say someone invented net zero energy, think of the catastrophic impact that would have on the entire world economy. So we can’t let that happen just yet.
There are numerous reasons why the number of planets in our galaxy capable of sustaining carbon-based life is much smaller than the media and grant-seeking astronomers imply in their articles. In addition to the obvious life-hospitable factors, such as a temperature suitable for liquid water and a suitably-sized sun, there are many more factors required for a planet to be fit for human-like intelligent life:
Suitable gravity for atmosphere, with appropriate pressure, to retain oxygen and water vapor but not hydrogen; suitable axis rotation rate; appropriate tilt of planet axis for seasons; suitable orbital distance from star to prevent tidal locking; magnetic field from planet molten core to shield atmosphere from cosmic radiation; sufficient planetary plate tectonics for crustal mineral recycling; suitable distribution and shape of continents to sustain deep ocean currents; sufficient actinide radioisotopes in planet interior for decay heat; suitably-sized moon to create needed tides and stabilize planet rotation; giant outer gas planets to prevent large asteroids and comets from frequent collisions with planet; suburban galaxy location providing sufficient distance from recent supernovas; far enough away from gravitational disturbances by higher density of stars in inner area of galaxy; only minor orbital variations caused by small chaotic gravitational interactions with nearby planets.
More limiting factors on suitable plaents will likely to be discovered as we learn more about our galaxy. The estimated probable number of life-hospitable planets is likely very close to the experimentally known value of one.
