Very very excited for this story. Sharing it far and wide to my friends and family. They probably still think I’m a nut but hey I’m having fun.
Same lol. I rarely pay attention to this stuff as someone with a science background. But this has me in a wait-and-see mode of cautious excitement.
It's hard for me not to start speculating about the possibilities if it is real. What could it all mean? It is both potentially exciting, and potentially devastating for humanity. Or it could also be super mundane (which for me, as someone who wishes desperately they lived in simpler times, would be the most hilarious and hopeful outcome).
I'm not convinced without more evidence, I'm keeping this story on my radar though...👽
Seems unbelievable but I guess the timeline of the universe has been broken from some point. 21 Dec 2012? Harambe's Death? Covid? Who knows.
Hadron Collider
Remember the days when if you even said the word U.F.O., you were laughed at and called a nut job?
Times have certainly changed.
Less sensational coverage of the claim:
We're Deeply Skeptical, But a Government Whistleblower Claims the US Has Recovered "Non-Human" Spacecraft by Victor Tangermann, Futurism
Also less than 2 months ago:
The head of the Pentagon office that is reviewing reported unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP – commonly known as UFOs, unidentified flying objects) told the US Congress this week that his office is now reviewing more than 650 incidents, but so far, none exhibited anything that was evidence of extraterrestrial activity or defied the known laws of physics.
It might be nothing burger number #651, or it might be solid alien evidence #1. We'll see, but don't hold your breath.
Maybe this is wishful thinking, but this all feels... slightly more real? I mean, the idea of the US government having "non-human craft" sounds absolutely batty, but at the same time...
I dunno, I want to believe.
What has me bit skeptical is that would highly advanced beings that can come to our galaxy when we can't even get to Mars be so incompetent to let primitives like us get a hold of their craft? Surely they'd be able to easily retrieve it from us without raising alarms if they wanted.
And why just America? Surely if America has a craft then bunch of other countries do too, since aliens just coming to make this an American affair like some hollywood movie is kind of funny.
Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir has had me thinking about these things lately. This "alien" population would be in a very narrow and unlikely band of intelligence to be intelligent enough to create a craft capable of travelling to Earth but not capable of foreseeing that we would take it. That, or taking the craft isn't actually a bad thing to the aliens and humanity is somehow of use to these aliens.
What I wonder is that if the US government did actually have a craft, it provides such a huge technological competitive advantage to keep it for themselves, which has me asking why would they let someone who could leak that live to get to the point it makes the news?
Or maybe whether the US does have something or doesn't maybe they want to perpetuate a story that makes other countries feel scared by the advanced tech the US may or may not hold? Or it's meant to be a distraction from current issues like rising inflation?
I just want my own Rocky :(
Because the call is coming from inside the house. Dolphins built the craft and are trying to leave.
Let's assume they actually had an intact alien vehicle... Where did the aliens go ?
"Here are the regime approved conspiracy theories."
There's a significant difference between non-human and extra terrestrial. Assuming the US military is actually several decades ahead in tech, it's feasible to have created and built AI designed crafts.
I was scared to post this until it became credible lol
