What Are the Chances We’ve Been Visited by Aliens?
WaPo ^ | Tyler Cowen

Posted on 05/26/2022 3:01:16 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

The conclusion of the US congressional hearing [last week] on UAPs, formerly known as UFOs, is an opportunity to take stock of where matters stand on a question that has captivated humankind for centuries: Have we been visited by aliens...?

*snip*

There do seem to be vehicles (“phenomena”?) going many times faster than US military craft, stopping and turning on a dime, showing no visible signs of propulsion and operating in ways that appear to violate standard understandings of aerodynamics.

The evidence is from multiple sensor sources, including photography, and supported by numerous eyewitness accounts. The US government is coy on its other sources of sensor measurements, but has stated that the same technology that is detecting UAPs is also used for routine intelligence purposes.

*snip*

It now seems unlikely that the recordings are picking up secret high-powered experimental craft of the Russian air force. Just ask Ukraine. And given that the Nimitz recording and sighting dates back to 2004, should we really think they are advanced Chinese vehicles? Although the US military has had increasingly frequent interactions and near misses with Chinese military vehicles in the South China Sea, they don’t seem anything like the UAP reports (many of which are based in the Atlantic).

Another common hypothesis has been that the recordings are picking up a secret advanced vehicle from some other hitherto unknown part of the US government. If so, again, why hold these hearings in the first place? If the secret branch has the resources to produce such aircraft, wouldn’t someone have stepped forward by now? Wouldn’t it be at least an active rumor? Or couldn’t someone in the secret operations branch call up a friendly senator or two to get the hearings called off? In fact, last week’s congressional hearing rejected this explanation outright.

Yes, but I mean documented and admitted too by a standing agency. I rather liked the movie based on their work. So far no one has testified to.Congress in the open forum about individual beings. Where there are crafts there is something controlling them could be AI, or advanced beings

Yup.
I keep trying to imagine a civilization that’s conquered interstellar travel doing anything other than placing a “do not enter” space sign on our planet after discovering social media and determining that we will never “pass the test”.

"There's even been a lot of talk that they've been here (on earth, in our reality) all along."

This has long been my belief. In fact, I'm thinking it is a species derived from the octopus, which is itself a most amazing creature.

It could be demonic forces, aliens, or our own secret tech. God created a vast universe and it is full of wonders. I think life is an intrinsic, inevitable phenomenon due to the design of our creator, that it arises everywhere where the conditions are right.

For nearly a century, researchers in physics have known all the ‘material stuff’ in our Universe to be clusters of tiny wave patterns in a field of cosmic energy. We observe the rise of order and meaning out of chaos everywhere we look. Atoms naturally join together to form complex molecules that interact with other complex molecules in infinite ways and the rise of life is part of that natural process.

It is typical of our leaders to think that they are the center of existence, to make themselves feel greater by diminishing both God and the vastness, complexity, and wonders of the Universe.

No chance at all. If they were/are advanced enough to get here, then they are advanced enough to take over.

However, maybe we can consider “O’Bozo” as a pretty good effort on their part. 😏

I’d say 100%, just look inside the White House.

I hope you’re not saying Nomad has returned in its Star Trek identity. “I am Nomad”.

They came, they saw, they quickly packed up their menu sign and left when they saw the food was rotten to the core.
