MMapperGuy replied to the thread Rep. Luna Requests UAP Video, With a List of Names..The use of this term is very likely to spread, because it sounds "scientifical". Should someone ever get Mr Grusch under oath somewhere they should ask him to specify exactly what he means by this term, and where (if anywhere) he heard it being...

Viability does not seem to me to be the problem. An extraordinary hypothesis supported by the very weak evidence of an anecdote may or may not be correct, but it can never be proven (or even strongly supported) using just anecdotes. It does not... -

Agree.
So it's something said by Tom DeLonge, not the US Army. It's possible DeLonge hoped he could monetize or exploit the item in some way, but that doesn't mean that his assessment of it was accurate- it was not- or that TTSA had any serious... -

The problem is Grusch using the term in a seemingly ambiguous way, why choose that word, numerous times? He clearly does not mean pharmacological products. It starts to become another UFO lore word, like orb. It has a real meaning and now...

John J. replied to the thread Rep. Luna Requests UAP Video, With a List of Names..Their function is twofold: To absorb the sound waves of active sonar, reducing and distorting the return signal, thereby reducing its effective range. To attenuate the sounds emitted from the vessel, typically its engines, to reduce the range at... -

Mass is the amount of matter in an object or a measure of its inertia. https://sciencenotes.org/what-is-mass-mass-definition-in-science/ The claim has to do with "inertial mass", but I can't help thinking that is his buzz-word for...

This appears to be connected to the well-known conspiracy theory, arguably given added credibility by Tulsi Gabbard in the past, that the US has been funding laboratories in Ukraine that are (it is implied) connected to biological warfare...

The whole "transients correlate with nuclear tests and UAP sightings" debacle leaves me less inclined to interpret her other claims charitably.

Presumably they think that any civilisation that has the ability to put objects in geosynchronous orbit around Earth would have such advanced technology that they can monitor us from a distance. But then that poses the question as to why they...

NorCal Dave reacted to Andreas's post in the thread Transients in the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey with Like.
Yeah, it makes little sense. But the beauty of it is that it doesn't have to make sense, since extraterrestrial probes or satellites are hypothetical objects, and there's no reason to assume they would function like human technology. That's why I...

Perhaps you're right, but when reading the whole article, one becomes a bit more concerned. Her conclusion is: "Maybe it was the most brilliant manipulation in history to stigmatize the term "flying saucer" and reshape the problem into a dumping...

"Proof" of what? The piece of junk TTSA had was alien? The piece of junk TTSA had could facilitate "mass reduction without losing mass"? The piece showed up in Art's mailbox in '96, so presumably it was around before that. Whoever mailed it, had...
