To achieve greater attention from scientists and journalists, whose professions retain stigma for this, those involved in UFO research must act prudently, writes TomRTweets.
This Saturday's 2022 World UFO Day sees the topic imbued with new energy. Evinced by the first congressional hearings on unidentified flying objects — what the government calls unidentified aerial phenomena, in more than 50 years, the topic is being taken far more seriously by more of the government. Here are three takeaways on where things stand and what those interested in the subject might want to consider.
The government knows these UFOs tend to saturate near high technology military or research sites, particularly those possessing nuclear power and weapons, such as Navy aircraft carriers. Bray, who is highly respected, sought to underplay the unknown in UFOs. Instead, he presented it as centering on the air safety concern of ensuring U.S. military aircrews do not collide with UFOs, which aircrew testimony would suggest has occurred far more times than commonly understood. But a key point in Bray's presentation came when he played video footage showing a UFO flying past a Navy fighter jet's cockpit. This video was striking, except not for what it showed.
This doesn't mean there are secrets yet to reach the light of day. But I'm now confident that there hasn't been some kind of major covert government effort since the 1940s to reverse engineer UFOs or study alien bodies a la Bob Lazar lore. What's more likely is that there has been a more limited conspiracy since the late 1940s within what might be called the deep-deep state: unofficial units or contractors acting without congressional or executive oversight.
We shouldn't be afraid to admit this. Indeed, at the crux of the broader UFO question is the interest in finding out what is flying around us and for what purpose. Knowing that foreign adversaries are using the abundance of more affordable, durable, and stealthy drones to operate closer to U.S. shores, the United States can better protect those shores. Knowing what is not an extraordinary UFO, we can better focus resources on what is.
