RELICS FROM NON-HUMAN SPACECRAFT: A SCIENTIST’S PERSPECTIVE
thedebrief.org ^ | 6/6/2023 | AVI LOEB

Posted on 06/06/2023 7:27:18 PM PDT by bitt

Most mainstream scientists argue that the possible existence of spacecraft from a non-human origin is an “extraordinary claim” that is not worth a serious study until “extraordinary evidence” falls to their lap.

The reason this evidence has to fall into their lap is because they are not engaged in the search for such evidence, and so its non-existence is a self-fulfilling prophecy. The simple answer to Enrico Fermi’s paradox: “Where is everybody?” is “To find out whether you have neighbors, you better use a telescopes or check your backyard for objects that came from the street.”

Over the past two years, the Galileo Project that I lead at Harvard University, engaged in these activities – as summarized in 8 peer-reviewed papers. But we must keep also in mind that the intelligence and defense agencies of the US Government are tasked with identifying objects falling from the sky for decades, since some of these objects may represent drones, spy balloons or ballistic missiles sent by adversarial nations. Given this “day job,” it is clear that Government agencies are likely to be (or have already been) the first to notice extraordinary evidence for Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) associated with any objects sent by extraterrestrial technological civilizations to our cosmic backyard.

When I sat next to the Director of National Intelligence, Avril Haines, at the Ignatius Forum at the Washington National Cathedral in November 2021, I asked her: “Given your bachelor’s degree in physics from the University of Chicago, what is your guess for the nature of the most anomalous UAP in your 2021 report to Congress?” She admitted, “I do not know.”

However, during our public discussion on stage, Avril noted, “There’s always the question of ‘is there something else that we simply do not understand, that might come extraterrestrially?’” This was ten months after my book Extraterrestrial was published, in which I discussed the possible technological explanation for the multiple anomalies including the disk-likeshape and non-gravitational acceleration exhibited by the interstellar object, `Oumuamua, observed by standard astronomical telescopes.

But the first recognized interstellar object actually impacted Earth in January 2014. The forthcoming expedition of the Galileo Project to the Pacific Ocean aims to discover whether this interstellar meteor, IM1, was a craft from an extraterrestrial civilization. The reason for considering an artificial origin of this half-meter-sized object is that it was tougher in material strength than all other 272 meteors in the CNEOS catalog of NASA, and was formally recognized as having an interstellar origin at the 99.999% confidence in an official letter from the US Space Command to NASA on March 1, 2022.

Bottom line:

We just don't know.

That is the truth as we know it now. My only concern here is to keep people from killing themselves in the event their belief system takes a major hit. They need to stay flexible, and prepare to salvage what is left of their Faith. There is nothing more I need to do here.

I am a blood bought follower of Jesus Christ. As such nothing can shake my faith. We already know there are. reared beings outside of our planet - angels and demons. I think the UFO phenomenon is demonic in origin and Satan is clearly capable if producing artifacts to bolster the deception.
But even if there are other beings inhabiting our universe why would that shake my faith? God has told us all that is necessary for our salvation. He has not told us all He knows (as if that were possible). l
We have been told our struggle is with powers and principalities and there is great deception coming. I choose to cling to Christ my Rock and nothing can shake that - because it is His strength not mine.

His daughter as a child saw him crying about having to lie when they threatened him with loss of job, pension and reputation and would have set up false mental illness records and confined him to a mental hospital if the CIA and others were not obeyed.

The paperclip nazis founded the CIA in September, 1947. Roswell happened in July, 1947, several months before there was a CIA.

That is exactly the way you should handle this! If the ETs turn out to real and just a remote civilization, no harm done. If they turn out to be demonic, no harm done.

People have, on the other hand, committed suicide when faced with idea of ETs. It happened when War Of The Worlds was aired, and it happens when service members clean up an ET crash.

You will be OK.

At age 11 or 12 I bought this 25 cent book at a drug store. I remembered it as unevenly paced.
