Because the average snapshot photographer takes those photographs from a long distance. The combined affects of atmospheric haze, object motion, camera shake, poor quality lenses, and inadequate image resolution result in a poor quality starting image. Now, enlarge the tiny object of interest, all you have left is a blur.

There are razor-sharp images of those things. Debunkers don't like those either.

“Early American astronauts” Yeah, that portrait of Washington crossing the Delaware depicts him looking out at 3 UFOs.

We visited the UFO museum in Roswell. Talk about hokey. That was enough to squash any belief in UFOs.

“It is amazing how only stupid people fall for this UFO garbage.”

Why is it that when people are open to the idea that we are not the only living things in the heavens to fly around our planet, and since they could have flown light years to get here with technology we aren’t smart enough to understand, called stupid? By taking the stand that they couldn’t be there is saying contrary to the possibility. And since we haven’t been allowed to see any up close to determine their existence, can anyone legitimately say they don’t exist? Can’t be done. Humans spend to much time trying to advertise the possibility of things not existing rather than trying to understand we aren’t smart enough to consider they do. Impossible is very fragile.

My dad was instrumental in training some of the guys that walked on the Moon. He said one dark night around a camp fire after a few adult beverages Pete Conrad told the story of flying one of the US newest planes and having the base and runway shut down as they waited for a “UFO” that landed to leave.

I was teasing the people to whom I addressed that message by being sarcastic. There's a winkie-smiley at the bottom of the comment.;-)

Check it out.

Ah; the old “The universe is big; therefore...” reasoning.

Try to wrap your head around the number 1.5 Trillion. Not Billion. Trillion. And that is just the number of solar systems in this galaxy. The universe has an estimated 125 billion galaxies.

What would the odds be that this planet is a one-of for sentient life that develops technologically?

I remember when John Glenn was orbiting the Earth and they had live coverage of the Space Center talking with him. He reported that he sees some twinkling lights outside of his capsule. You could feel the tension in the Center for a minute or so.

Then one guy said “What are they saying, John?” and the whole place erupted into laughter. IIRC, that was the first time I had seen almost palpable tension snap in a second.

It turned out it was some tiny debris from the capsule flaking off and swirling around it.

The aircraft that replaced the SR-71 is quite real. Do you have a clear picture of it? Do you have ANY picture of it?

“So yes, unidentified. But extraterrestrial? Why?”

Just look at the drooling morons on this very topic who’ve been conditioned by their masters in the media to come on here and ridicule this discussion as involving “aliens”. The alien narrative was very likely introduced by the government in order to silence and marginalize anyone who wanted to seriously investigate a subject that the government wanted kept secret.

How many times have we seen this strategy of marginalizing those who dare question the Official Narrative?

Mention that Wuhan Flu came from China and you were a RACIST!!! WHO MUST BE SILENCED!!!

Question the obviously corrupt 2020 election and you’re a RACIST!!! WHO MUST BE SILENCED!!!

Question the efficacy of these so-called vaccines that don’t make anyone immune to Wuhan Flu and you’re a RACIST!!! WHO MUST BE SILENCED!!!

Question why the Democrats don’t want to investigate the massive Jeffery Epstein child rape scheme and you’re a CONSPIRACY THEORIST!!! WHO MUST BE SILENCED!!!

And now that the government is putting an end to their narrative that only crackpots and alien conspiracy believers have seen UFO/UAP the programmed retards didn’t get the memo and they’re still trying to silence anyone who discusses what is looking like a serious subject.

These things are real. That much is true.

Who controls them is unknown but there’s very little reason to suspect they come from another planet or that naked gray aliens are involved. Only a total jackass would assume that aliens are the main issue here.

The main issue is someone has a technology that does some pretty amazing things and it would be nice for the US to have this technology.

I believe you are correct, complete distraction from the audits going on. They are working like magicians, misdirection. Watch the right hand and the left hand will do the trick

Wasn’t aiming the comment at you. I was aiming the comment at those that are so limited in their observations that they further the reason I think there is no communication from anyone to include possible e.t.’s. Sorry I was so misunderstanding.

While it is POSSIBLE that there was “video” evidence of it, I am more inclined to believe that it would have been on film.

Me too. Young people today have no understanding of the difference between film and video. My brother and I experimented with very early consumer reel to reel black & white video tape recorders in the 1970s and I purchased my first video tape camera in '80s. Quite a novelty at the time, people often asked if my camera was a sound Super 8mm film camera.

I watched a documentary about a PBS series (in New York?) where the news crew (1970s) found they had remarkable access with then new handheld camcorders to the point where the people they were filming/interviewing were quite unguarded and dismissive that the camera would get much.

Also I’ve seen/read that there were 2 groups/people with videorecorders at the original 1969 woodstock. One was at the stage capturing the show but the other was walking through the crowd interviewing the attendees for hours.

But while television has existed since the 1920s, much of the footage that remains is on film stock (or a receiving screen or in the case of Nazi television of the 1930s-40s the film itself was quickly processed in camera before instant broadcast).
