This is the very definition of fanaticism. For some, blind faith in various UFO stories is a substitute for religion, and for others it is an extension of it, where it plugs into a wider paranormal belief framework, as in the case of Avi Loeb...
Re. part 3 of The Mystorian's take on Ariel School, @25 mins 43 secs in,
See Johnny [Mack] doesn't even know this fucking word and he's a doctor. Well I mean he has a doctorate, in psychology, and grifting.
No, Mack was a doctor in the most...
You don't need to simplify it, especially when you are trying to communicate what Grusch is, you should be clear and not inventing slang in your official statements.
Especially not when the word you choose has a real meaning used by scientists...
A fine question, and one which is getting harder to answer.
AARO was supposed to investigate new claims of anomalous things.
The retrospective review of past sightings was supposed to be a one-time only review of the "story-so-far", to serve as...
Thanks Andreas...I've appreciated your insights from speaking directly with Nick Pope.

I watched Age Of Disclosure ( yeah...I'm a mug for paying for it ).....and what truly struck me was the sheer mind numbing dichotomy between all the CLAIMS of UFO shenanigans.....and the practically non-existent actual evidence. All these...
Its hard to see how the object can have been accidentally presented as being in the sky. It either was genuinely in the sky or it wasn't. I haven't heard any rendition of the story where the photographer goes to the papers and says ' We...
Haha, yeah. He could have simply drilled a hole for some kind of peg. And, being a bit sloppy and not bothering to use a ruler, he might have drilled the hole slightly off-center.
I asked Nick about this shortly before he passed away, and he said he believed the additional five photos were still in the MoD's possession. But he confessed that he didn't know.
Personal email from Nick Pope to me, 24 Feb. 2026:
