Mellon and Elizondo explained the reason for the "media push" in the 60 Minutes piece. Public pressure will hopefully lead to representatives taking the issue more seriously leading up to the report to Congress next month.

The idea that alien probes are surveilling us here on Earth as being extremely unlikely isn't actually based on anything.

Delta-Wye posted:the most interesting acceleration is recorded with the radar, and most of those crazy m/s or m/s^2 values are based on a single object going from low altitude to high altitude but there are lots of easier explanations. if they are artificial radar targets that can be enabled/disabled (say, quickly reconfigure their shape to change the response) several going on/off at the right rate would confuse the operator who would see one object displace a large distance in a short amount of time. lots of more abstract EW approaches too, ofc. Right but 4 pilots saw it shoot off as the radar tracked it move almost instantly to their cap point ie that crazy speed has been corroborated.

i am harry posted:there are accounts of UAPs physically reacting to aircraft, shutting off systems, etc..maybe that would just be a side-effect of something else. Unless ftl, intergalactic wormholes or whatever other magic is a thing travel is probably limited to within the Milky Way. The Milky Way is ~100,000 light years across, so moving at .1 lightspeed(extremely fast but not magic) gets you across in 1 million years. The closest galaxy to ours is Andromeda which is 2.5 million light years away and there's nothing in between, it's a whole next level of vast and that's the absolute closest one.

Vomik posted:lol why would you EVER think aliens? We're sending probes out and building space telescopes to look for aliens, why can't some other civilization find us first? This point of view comes up over and over again and it's so obviously an example of cognitive dissonance. Even if there was no ufo reports at all it'd still be a good idea to look for evidence of probes in the solar system. The central idea of the Fermi paradox is that it's weird we're not seeing anyone given the size and age of the galaxy.

dew worm posted:if Aliens are capable of FTL travel from millions of light years away, isn’t that basically the same as time travel? You don't need ftl to move around the galaxy. Alpha Centauri is 4 lightyears away, if you can get up to 0.1 lightspeed somehow then that's 40 years which a robotic probe isn't going to care about. 0.1c Von Neuman probes could explore the whole galaxy in a million years. Mars lost it's magnetosphere 4 billion years ago, which is your radiation shielding and stops your atmosphere getting blown away, which is before we had any life on Earth. It's very doubtful anything complex evolved there if at all. Ratios and Tendency has issued a correction as of 03:53 on May 31, 2021 |

We have a fairly well accepted example of ftl in retreating galaxies too. You can't accelerate objects to c but apparently space can warp or expand in such a way that you end up with objects moving that fast relative to each other, maybe there's a technological way to harness something like that.

Corbell was on a webchat where he said they've got another incident separate to but very similar to the Omaha drones where the navy did try to shoot one down but it was "ineffective". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDvzZV9hMEI&t=2351s

the actual text of the article posted:The report determines that a vast majority of more than 120 incidents over the past two decades did not originate from any American military or other advanced U.S. government technology, the officials said. That determination would appear to eliminate the possibility that Navy pilots who reported seeing unexplained aircraft might have encountered programs the government meant to keep secret...

Lampsacus posted:I am interested to know if the uap report will include the supposed high-definition footage/photographs taken of the ALIENS. Because that would be cool. At the very least it will probably have a bunch of text reports of consistent sightings which would also be cool. I don't see how the confiscated Nimitz stuff from 2004 could still reasonably be deemed top secret or whatever but even then I highly doubt it.

Log082 posted:This is obviously a coordinated effort. It's been obvious since Elizondo's first interview. You don't just quit a job at the DoD and start talking about all the cool classified poo poo you saw and have the DoD go "Oh yeah, you got us, we totally don't know what those things are. Haha I guess we'll release more videos, just for you." Susan Gough has been trying to shut him down though remember. Supposedly deleting his emails and claiming he had no responsibilities.

There's over a dozen different people involved who've come forward about the Nimitz tic-tac. Lazily handwaving them all off as non-credible isn't much of a take, especially when we have video confirming the object.

Communist Thoughts posted:man none of these videos are remotely convincing. i admit i havent seen whatever ones kicked it off but i figured i'd rectify that and jut went off to look at the nimitz one and... really? The lovely video we have confirms that there was real object associated with the pilot and radar operator witnesses. There's also multiple people involved who say there's a much better, longer version that shows crazy movement similar to what the pilots saw, but it hasn't been declassified. This vid is a little cheesy to begin with but it gives a good overview of the event: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRgoisHRmUE
