Roswell was a cia high-altitude mylar balloon conducting infrasound sensing of soviet atmospheric nuclear testing (the idea being nukes produce detectable shockwaves that travel all the way around the earth and you can use them to infer on the bomb's strength). Ironically "weather balloons" are p much exactly what they were, one of them popped and they had to quickly scoop it up lest some gomer find the equipment

theres only one alien on earth and he's my friend, he says he wants everyone to stop trying to find him and just leave him alone. he lives in my converted garage and is pretty cool but he leaves trash out a lot. hes saving up to go back home but i dont have the heart to tell him they dont have antimatter at the gas station (he doesnt go outside, he teleworks at a call center) i think if he dies of old age or whatever some dumb rear end common cold virus ill use his life savings on an rtx 3090

Antifa Turkeesian posted:Is there a case of something classified being kept secret from the president? I am assuming Eisenhower and Kennedy signed off on like MKULTRA. SCI programs are known only to people within the program who need to know about it (up to the authorizing manager). Its specifically so one mole can't know literally every government secret there is just because they somehow get a clearance. Higher-security clearances (like a Q clearance) don't let you know MORE, just more dangerous information. I assume it works the same for the president; the president doesn't know everything, only what is most important at the time for a given subject (e.g. presumably the pres cannot just freely ask precisely where boomers are unless he meant to use them. He is authorized to know where they are, but cannot access the info without needing to know)

The secrecy around groom lake is literally no different than secrecy around any other top secret operation/facility but for some reason it is extra super spooky, makes no sense The real secrecy is how they use mermen to install propellers on nuclear submarines, which is why they will never let you see them being installed or assembled

Delta-Wye posted:if its literally the same stuff, art bell was talking about this poo poo in the 90s and if it did what was described, someone would have noticed by now imho. what is shown in the video is a completely unrelated property of superconducting magnets and without bothering to check I am pretty sure CERN/nuclear fusion labs routinely energize that much electricity through their superconducting coils (though probably not AC, but it doesn't matter, if there were any truth to it we'd know) any time people trot out superconductors or magnets or microwaves or whatever in relation to antigravity it's universally bunk; superconductors are rad for plenty of reasons but they're not exactly mysterious, they're used for practical purposes right now in laboratories, it's just they're too unwieldy/unrealistic atm to use in stuff that would greatly benefit from superconductors (transmission lines, high power motors, efficient cpus etc) Justin Tyme has issued a correction as of 00:03 on May 26, 2021 |

Ross DaouThot posted:i’m pretty sure that the gravity drive in the downed roswell craft was considered a COG issue because if the tech was in any way made public or democratized, suddenly there’s really no such thing as secure airspace, not to mention that US global hegemony was inextricable from oil and gas. some people somewhere decided it wasn’t worth the trouble of upending the global paradigm, even in america’s own craft (because they could be compromised like the stealth blackhawk), so they just buried the poo poo in a pit somewhere and no potus will ever be privy to details. The downed roswell craft was literally a weather balloon. It was a mylar balloon loaded with experimental top secret infrasound acoustic equipment used to spy on soviet atmospheric nuclear tests

A MIRACLE posted:if you really want to experience sleep paralysis these are the steps to take: Yeah sleep paralysis is sleeping in a soft mattress on your back so your blood pools in your torso as your heart rate decreases during sleep, your arms and legs fall asleep so if you wake you won't have any sensation in your limbs for a minute or so I wonder if there is any correlation to your unconscious dream/mental state of having your arms and legs fall asleep and if it causes you to have more lucid dreams or something

On the flipside, what is the most uninteresting and frustratingly stupid conclusion to all this? I'm picturing a Balloon Boy-rear end finale where it turns out its all about an Apple drone or something that is able to dive underwater and transition to flying, and the speed anomolies are just false readings. The tic-tacs are Facebook internet blimps that got caught in the jet stream.

I don't buy that it's government testing because the government would inherently, you know, let their people know testing is occurring so they can get good data. They're not gonna prank themselves for laughs because they'd want the radar data for study. Would make more sense that it would be a private organization or foreign government, and if it was a special access program they wouldn't risk involving anyone not briefed in like that Carnival cruise ship.

Trabisnikof posted:otoh the us military has a long long history of testing things on uninformed and unsuspecting people. granted, but I'd be more inclined to believe that if we had a track record of them buzzing airport towers with F117s or loving with Washington DC with SR-71s for "testing" (which would be totally analogous with stuff going on now) Also it's 100% not EMDrive, that's bunk pseudoscience and even if it was somehow real you're not going to see the lovely micronewton levels of force being optimized to propel large craft at hypersonic speeds in like two years (not to mention many sightings were before EMDrive was even a topic of conversation) Justin Tyme has issued a correction as of 16:53 on May 28, 2021 |

The fact they've been around for so long and that China and Russia are still heavily invested in anti-ship ballistic missiles, hypersonic cruise missiles, and supercavitating torpedoes 100% immediately rules out it being foreign technology in my mind. Why waste money on that stuff over the years if you can hurl a single tictac at a carrier and blow it to smithereens with kinetic energy alone? Either it is aliens, a strange natural phenomenon we have no explanation for, or the pilots over the years are full of poo poo and its stuff like party balloons miraging in the sun. Or Ecuador's military has been much, much more advanced than we ever knew...

Understanding that proposed FTL propulsion technology requires massive amounts of energy, shouldn't it be possible to experimentally validate it using some sort of ultra-short picosecond pulses on a micro-scale? There are already petawatt lasers in existence, isn't it concievable to maybe move a single molecule a few microns using a warp bubble or something? All the papers talk about like a 200m diameter warp bubble which is nice but reeks of physicists not earnestly looking to propose experimental jumping off points

Not saying you are doing this just be aware of that line when treading in the space where religion and aliens begin to intersect. You mean to tell me the modern english translation of a two thousand+ year old patchwork of documents can't be taken uncritically at face value???

What if instead of encasing the entire craft in a warp bubble you just blew a propellant stream through a very small warp bubble, then what if you accidentally dropped a rock into your test setup and you shoot earth point blank with a pebble going 20x the speed of light

500excf type r posted:reading the quoted release, it sounds more like the program embraces modern design techniques that have never been used on a production run of that level. I am talking about not using 2D spec drawings and stuff and instead using a master model developed at the beginning which drives the whole production chain and everything is computer-generated based off the master model. Things such as the machine tooling paths to make the part, CMM inspection paths to verify the part, every step of the way it is all digital, start to finish. yeah I was confused with what he meant because I'm an aerospace designer and still have to generate drawings (which is getting more and more pushback especially for really complex 5-axis parts where it'll take you a week to make a drawing on a part that took you one day to design and analyze) there are drawbacks to all-digital (mom and pop shops that don't have 5-axis machines obviously can't do 5-axis jobs which limits your vendor pool, really simple parts that can be done on a Bridgeport are better suited to drawings still, you need really robust ways to handle special instructions like thread inserts or special coatings, etc) but it would sure as hell take me a lot less time to get parts into fabrication without needing to generate drawings
