You might be joking but a lot of indications are pointing at this. There has been a lot of buzz in the UAP community for the past three or four years and even some members of Congress are now starting to ask questions.
A congressman was interviewed a couple of days back and he was talking about a debriefing that he got from two Air force pilots that were flying just off the coast of Florida. They recently upgraded their radar systems and they've been detecting a lot of anomalies and have encountered craft that are behaving in ways that as of now we don't consider possible. He said with no quibble in the interview that the US or other foreign Nations have no equivalents of these crafts.
Now whether we're talking aliens, extra dimensional beings or non-human intelligence is anyone's guess but something is coming down the pipeline.
Isn't that more likely to be an artifact of the brand-new radar system? New systems always have bugs.
no no its aliens that flew across the galaxy and have nothing better to do than harass the locals
They flew across the boundary between parallel universes, and if you can’t think of a reason to visit another civilization I hope you never get put in charge of planning the family vacation.
Yeah they shot down like 3 UFOs and a Chinese spy balloon. One of the UFOs was likely a hobby craft (the one in Alaska was likely a middle school science project). But the other two remain to be explained.
A year later and we're back to just not talking about any of this, like usual.
With how, just... Uncool everything turns out once it's scientifically explained, that thing is probably nothing more than sasquatch. Instead of something that would change our very perceptions of reality, we just get a new species of primate that has somehow eluded capture for a long time.
Occam's Razor tells me to ignore alien theories. There's so much secret shit being done, I'm certain it's all man-made.
But the Fermi Paradox is a paradox because the lack of alien contact is the weirder explanation.
Alien visitation of earth actually takes mystery away, which was introduced when we realized there should be aliens visiting earth.
