Re: Close encounters of the third kind
The internet has been exploding about UFOs and alleged extraterrestrial objects for years….
It’s never talked about publicly at a government level as people would (understandably) demand answers, something officials would naturally be unable to give. However there’s no way of knowing if these aircraft are from another world or some secret high-tech weapon from another country, and there’s no way the Yanks would admit to being baffled by the superior technology from another country.
With regards to the “non human” biologics, that just seems to be all very “I’d love to tell you what I know….but unfortunately I can’t”.
People have been using that BS convenient line since time began about agendas they may be wanting to push.
My feeling is these are all diversionary tactics - I once read that the Yanks use the whole “aliens” gimmick at Area 51 to distract people from whatever other top secret work goes on there

When I hear about UFO sightings I always think of this map:
The visitors from another galaxy aren't exactly well-traveled, they seem to only speak English.
Joking aside I think the vastness of space makes such visits very unlikely and especially so many that people report. We might expect some evidence of life but signals, light, or debris spotted out to space, not dozens upon dozens of trips in spaceships.
The idea that we haven't found evidence of life elsewhere is more interesting to me. What that means about the universe and our place in it. Things like the Femi Paradox and the Great Filter.

Although I’m similarly fascinated by the Fermi Paradox/Great Filter/Drake Equation stuff I think that map relies on US data which could explain some of the bias.
Growing up looking up at the vastness of the sky would make you wonder that there must be something out there. What’s similarly odd is that more people then ever before are walking around all day with a camera and nobody can get a decent picture

During the meeting, Grusch said that whilst he is unable to answer those questions in an open forum, he would happily supply the names and evidence he had in a SCIF (a private meeting with the congress representatives) to give full disclosure. The reason all 3 could not give full disclosure is due to a mix of Non-Disclosure agreements and National Security (the reason that this has come to congress in the first place).

This 'sighting' map was generated by NUFORC, which is a US based (thus English speaking) non-profit. It will be heavily weighted towards American and 'English Speaking' nations when people search for where to report something. Also remember that they likely do not filter out sightings that could be explained away, so might seem heavier than otherwise it would be if it were only showing geuine (for want of a better term) UAP sightings scrutinised and obtained using military level sensors, cameras, vehicles and personnel.
In terms of the witness statement meeting with congress, I think it's very interesting. the fact it has become an officially and openly raised subject in the interests of National Security in the US means this will get attention, and the more attention it gets, the more people will demand answers and evidence. At which point, it can become hard to hide when there are respectable and professional people providing what they claim are the names of people, programmes, locations and evidence that support said claims. If anyone thought the open meeting was interesting, imagine the info that will be passed over in the SCIF meeting!
