A.DIM you seemed to have started a very popular thread. Almost 19,000 views in a short period of time. We all may not agree on things but it seems we all have some interest in this topic. This is a topic that is a bit awkward to bring up in conversation with most people even though many have interest in it. The Internet makes this a bit easier.

It is clear that the military does have an opinion on this topic that is different from what the official public statements may say. Some people I know that were at Hamilton Air force base (they worked with/for project blue book) were told that the public could not handle it. They saw many cases that never made it to blue book. To them UFOs were real and were not ours, they logged them but it was not up to them on which ones were filtered. Even so blue book still has some very interesting cases.

None of them would/or have been interviewed on the topic. I know many people in the military have come forward just not the ones I know. They were not the people calling the shots as to where in the information would end up. They did not have any information to any downed or crashed UFO. They did have plenty on chases though, one right out of Rod Serlings Twilight Zone. Some weird stuff for sure. Yea yea I know its all just words and no proof of anything. Anyone can make up a story; I just have to go on my judge of character that they are not full of crap.

If real I find the technology to be very interesting. New physics? or yet to be discovered physics at work. In theory Einstein’s speed limit can be circumvented in at least three ways, each one has some huge hurdles to overcome. Manipulating space itself to me seems the most tangible vs multiple universe theories. Power sources needed seem unobtainable.

But maybe somewhere else Einstein would be considered a slow learner, someone stumbled across a way around restrictions we impose on space travel.

From what I know I do not buy that the reason for non-funding UFO research is due to it being of no scientific value. I believe it’s a bit more complicated than that.
