We're not co-authoring a scientific paper, we're chatting about potential explanations for a variety of disparate but strange reports from various branches of the govt about a variety of recent evidence on UFOs. There's multiple videos released, there's a variety of reports from people who had either first or second hand knowledge. The people are at least somewhat credible (much more than in the past). That's all. Your strong need to gatekeep the conversation is odd, I&#

Excluding otherworldly forms of speculation about why possible aliens are visiting us, this subject really boils down to four tangible questions about how we arrived at this footage and the eyewitness accounts from Fravor et al:- Is it aliens?- If not, do these sightings represent real unexplainable technological phenomena (advanced propulsion technology)?- If not, are the eyewitness accounts credible?- In any case, why is the DoD letting eyewitnesses go public?With the answers to

> "...maybe they're here to probe our asses...well they're gonna have to take a number 'cause the military got there first..."The existence of UFOs / UAPs continues to be an unknown. However, that confusion doesn't diminish the fact that we are all being probed on a regular basis. That's not a conspiracy theory.
