Zisky posted:IF (that's a big if) the government knows more about this than they're letting on, the current media strategy sure does seem like the ideal way to slow roll an announcement. this is kinda my thought, too There's no reason to roll out media and do 60 minutes spots for the olds if it's just for funding they already have all the money and support for more funding that they could ever need

StratGoatCom posted:During the NASA/USAF lifting body programs of the 60-70s, a disc shaped craft was indeed proposed, but never was built. It strikes me as possibly viable. the whole omni-directional thrust thing seems to have been applied pretty well for drones. Just add a disc shape skirt to them and you've got flying saucers

I mean... why wouldn't aliens just take the first people they meet at their word? "Oh, you're the chosen ones and you have a ruler called Yahweh that watches over you. Sure thing."

I want star trek aliens. I know some folks want Independence Day aliens because they can't handle the thought of not being America to the whole universe I suspect if we get any aliens though it's gonna be the roadside picnic sort that don't even care that we're here they're just studying cloud formations or some poo poo on the way to a cooler species' planet

The Saucer Hovers posted:look into the history of nitinol and titanium mining if youre actually broke brained enough to be interested in this subject quote:While the potential applications for nitinol were realized immediately, practical efforts to commercialize the alloy did not take place until a decade later. This delay was largely because of the extraordinary difficulty of melting, processing and machining the alloy. Even these efforts encountered financial challenges that were not readily overcome until the 1980s, when these practical difficulties finally began to be resolved. Hrmmm

So possible scenarios: 1) It's all gaslighting by the US government for $$$ (weird since they've dropped millions into research this anyhow and could just ask for more money. Congress can't say no to the MIC) 2) It's all gaslighting by a global coalition for... ??? 3) It's an adversary waving their magic drone dicks at us for reasons. 4) It's aliens and their purpose is unknown 5) It's aliens and they're benevolent. Yay utopia. 6) It's aliens and they're malicious. XCOM incoming. 7) It's aliens and they made contact but they're just kinda neutral? Is that sufficiently different from 3?
