On the Pros/Cons slide there is mention that the US may be losing the UAP race. My thoughts went straight to the Alaska UAP shoot down during the Chinese ‘balloon’ incidents.

the paper:

except some of the pilots note the objects ‘move side to side’ and starlink will form a consistent linear pattern maintaining the same distance.

final note: this was uploaded today, but the interview was recorded 18 months ago. still a great interview.

i’m just over halfway through and should say this is an excellent interview. Nolan starts off slow but eventually gets into the state of his research findings, his personal UAP experiences and also discusses the biological circumstances that allow some people to perceive UAP more than others.

yeah, I heard that Spielberg was shown the Holloman AFB film and was essentially guided to make the end scene of Close Encounters based on that event.

second part of interview drops tomorrow.

I’m starting to feel like some kind of disclosure is coming in the coming year. Grusch seems to hint as much. It may not have the wow factor of a presidential address, but maybe a more sudden kind of event that gets us there faster.

Unfortunately a sudden rush of info may be too much for people. A kind of cognitive dissonance worse than we saw with covid or 9/11. People may not respond rationally or in the healthiest way.

but bring it on anyway!

This Paranormal podcast…what a crazy interview. I never heard this idea that some UAP could be people visiting from our past. Not sure how we square that, but intriguing.

But what really struck me was this idea that a backup, uncontrolled leak is waiting in the wings should the two Republicans in the House kill the Schumer amendment.

Lots of great nuggets. thanks for sharing!

interview with Rep Eric Burlison on this: Event Horizon

I’ll play.

Either McMurdo or Palmer stations in Antarctica. Would fit lots of threads that have been planted out there (looking at you Fox Maulder and John Carpenter).

And would definitely cause an international incident given its international legal status.

This was a pleasant departure from the negative news and counter attacks that have dominated this topic lately.

I’ve been a fan of Danny Sheehan since the 80s. He was one of the principal people that revealed the Iran Contra scandal among his other feats revealing hidden truths.

I do hope he and Basset are right that Disclosure is all but a given and also very imminent (according to the Schumer timeline that Sheehan cites).

2024 might just be the year!

it’s heartening that the governor has been working so hard to solve the state’s crippling housing crisis…oh wait…what?

well the combo of a witness to the Gimbal incident who then learns about how many sightings the navy sees only to be visited in his bedroom by NHI…that’s got my attention!

Sometimes I pause when I read about how hard some military leadership is trying to stop disclosure. If all of this is just weapons testing then, okay, that makes normal sense. If it’s because there is a ton of graft, then, wow, that’s still a story. But what if it’s just really disturbingly bad news and they really are trying to stop a well-founded risk of global panic.

Still, call me Pandora, but i still want to know…

exactly…woah.

Those DOE contractors…interesting bedfellows there…particularly in Nevada.

The 2023 RAND study on the tendency for UAP to be seen in remote areas is interesting. But then again, it could also be a case of seeing things more clearly since there is less ‘noise’ in the sky outside population centers.

Moreover this article strikes me as just applying humanity’s latest tech to the UAP problem.

Personally, I’m tending toward Vallee’s hypothesis that the stealthiness has more to do with extra dimensionality of the phenomenon. That is, the way UAP blink in and out of sight and the often reported combining of multiple objects into one, or vis versa, is better explained if UAP are multidimensional in nature. They might still be extraterrestrial probes, but they could be something far weirder.

yeah, that was an interesting moment. I think he was purposely being vague so only he really knows, but I’d wager it has to do with the weirder, reality-bending revelations that are floated out there:

1. the DNA sharing thing
2. we’re all a hologram
3. they’re dinosaur gods from an alternative timeline (joking)

essentially the thing or things that will make us say: “I wish it was just aliens!”
