UAP: Difference between revisions

@zcichy @SFsomaGirl @ColonelQuestion @robinhanson @BrianRoemmele @micsolana The truth is I don’t know what to think.

2021

Vaccines are not 100% safe.

Climate science is not simply “settled science”.

The COVID virus may well have come from the Wuhan Lab.

Not everything @JamesOKeefeIII publishes is automatically false.

@AndrewYang was never covered fairly by @msnbc.

Masks help.

Your move AP.

6:51 PM · Jan 17, 2021

If you want to discuss cloud formation and non-linearity in climate models, or the fact that even pure water isn’t 100% safe, or the issues in determine COVID’s origin, you are welcome to come through the “Loophole” that is my podcast.

You simplistic corporate sons of bitches.

6:55 PM · Jan 17, 2021

@jason_pontin @JamesOKeefeIII @AndrewYang @MSNBC Ok. The “overwhelming consensus” on the etiology of ulcers? Economists on The “Great Moderation”?

I mean I thought that the idea of Pentagon videos of UFOs was total bullshit.

Life just isn’t about consensus. And overwhelming does nothing for this American STEM PhD.

6:59 PM · Jan 17, 2021

As I said before, I have no idea what to make of the UAP shift of our government. But I do know that this period is unlike *any* other epoch. And there are many *different* unprecedented things that could happen so close to the source code as we have been for 50 to 75 years.

4:30 PM · Apr 16, 2021

The number of higher credibility officials or former officials choosing to walk right up to, yet generally not over, the line of confirming alien encounters via UAP has changed markedly.

I have always avoided UFO discussion. This makes that impossible:

https://t.co/uaM0wwEVMu

4:09 PM · Apr 21, 2021

At this point, the story I am tracking isn’t “Little Green Men”. It is “Officials inexplicably change course on UFO narrative”.

Also, the story about “Technology never before seen.” Would make more sense with “Technology” replaced by “Physics”.

1:59 PM · Apr 22, 2021

Eigenbros

@eigenbros

High level government officials have given UAPs credibility, but it's still pretty hard for an outsider to analyze the evidence objectively. It's all video footage and testimony. We need much stronger evidence to form any real opinion on UFOs being extraterrestrial or not.

12:06 PM · Apr 22, 2021

The US/Europe seriously diverted attention from doing real theoretical physics almost 40 years ago in 1984 to explore physics inspired mathematics. Did China/Iran/Russia/Israel? I don’t know.

But I can tell you this: no one in government is appropriately focused on new physics.

1:59 PM · Apr 22, 2021

Imagine in 1900 some “crank” told you about thermonuclear weapons. Would you listen or laugh? Well, they’d be only 5 decades away with no aliens necessary. And powered flight hadn’t happened yet!

That’s how powerful a “new physics” advantage is. We’re behaving like lunatics.

1:59 PM · Apr 22, 2021

Any time ANYONE at least 1/2-way viable says something weird or kooky or interesting (Wolfram, Lisi, etc.) the cost of a Department of Energy 1hr phone call is negligible. Almost no one with that background says anything like this. Maybe less than 1 such PhD “lunatic” per year.

1:59 PM · Apr 22, 2021

Do I think Wolfram, Lisi, Kaku, Smolin, Klee Irwin, Sarfatti, Woit/Penrose etc are right or on the doorstep of new physics? No! But It’s also totally irrelevant to the security risk.

It wouldn’t matter to me at all. I would check in with all of them: the cost is zero. The risk?

1:59 PM · Apr 22, 2021

The thing I like least about Geometric Unity is not being able to know what it would unlock if true, any more than Einstein and Bohr understood Lise Meitner, Stan Ulam & Edward Teller’s weaponization of New Physics.

We are talking about UFOs while not worrying about New Physics.

1:59 PM · Apr 22, 2021

Think about the g-2 muon anomaly. Have you heard as much about that suggesting the possibility of New Physics from high precision (rather than high energy) as you have about the TicTac UAP?

Similarly, how often do you hear about UAP technology rather than physics issues. Right??

1:59 PM · Apr 22, 2021

I have no idea what to make of the change in the UAP narrative. What I can tell you with certainty is that for such an ENORMOUS change in the narrative there is no sane explanation for the DOE not to be talking new physics risks and taking every one of the few claims seriously.

1:59 PM · Apr 22, 2021

As we saw over & over in the 20th century, any small change in physics can change everything almost overnight. From A-Bombs to Semiconductors.

The handful of PhD level claims are of negligible cost to investigate & dismiss compared to a single fighter jet.

DOE lost the plot.

1:59 PM · Apr 22, 2021

Enough! Let’s get back to UFOs and space opera so we don’t have to worry about China & Iran making a breakthrough on a white board in some lab we can’t see.

Moral: if you take UFOs seriously but not the risk of new physics, you aren’t thinking clearly.

Just think about it. 🙏

1:59 PM · Apr 22, 2021

We are being told L*ttl*-Gr**n-M*n and are being handed the vowels i and four e’s by our defense department.

Only don’t say UFO...say UAP. And when we ask “So...aliens?” They say “This is not consistent with the capabilities of any nation.”

Cut the crap: https://t.co/cfDIUVvndC

4:37 PM · May 16, 2021

No one knows how to talk about this. It isn’t our top headline.

My question is *how* is this not our top headline? Either the defense department is pranking the entire world or we have the largest dire security mystery on earth or we have contact.

All 3 would be our top story.

4:37 PM · May 16, 2021

When our experts now talk openly about all these UFOs they talk about their “technology”.

And every time they do, I replace the word “technology” with the word “physics” for the obvious reasons. Because if non-terrestrial craft are here, physics > technology.

5:26 PM · May 16, 2021

Imagine if these UAP were actually visitors from beyond the local solar neighborhood. You wouldn’t be focused on their technology first. You’d want to understand how they got here and if they used new physics to do so. Most importantly, you’d want to know about dimension hacking.

5:26 PM · May 16, 2021

A key issue in Geometric Unity for me is whether additional temporal & spatial degrees of freedom are accessible or shielded from manipulation. But consider what 6 additional temporal dimensions or the ability to manipulate rulers and protractors fundamentally could yield.

5:26 PM · May 16, 2021

We are somehow no longer worried about any new physics. We are so sure it won’t suddenly progress in an unexpected way or unlock anything new that we aren’t even paying attention to the field. After String Theory it all feels ironic.

This is potentially a *catastrophic* mistake.

5:26 PM · May 16, 2021

Every threat against a head of state is taken seriously. Even the absurd ones. It is cheaper to dot a few “i”s and cross a few “t”s than to not worry about such threats.

Obviously.

UAP, Gain Of Function, New Physics, MANPADS, loose nukes, etc should be the same.

Obviously.

5:26 PM · May 16, 2021

You can recover a surprising amount from just one simple statement: UAP, public health, standardized testing, immigration, mortgage backed securities, crypto, inflation methodology, String Theory, Aaron Swartz, Etc.

“Institutions do not have the right to gaslight individuals.”

6:40 PM · May 18, 2021

In a certain sense, that is the main through-line of my politics. Any institution that gaslights an ordinary human trying to make sense of the world in a reasonable fashion is wrong to me in a particularly profound way.

Don’t know how to describe this as a political perspective.

6:40 PM · May 18, 2021

The mainstream (that dutifully reported this as a simple suicide story) are our cranks.

They told us not to wear masks when we needed to and then to wear them when we didn’t.

They told us UFOs weren’t real but tell us they are now real.

And that COVID came from a wet market...

1:26 AM · May 22, 2021

Clearly: We need to decrankify our mainstream.

We need to purge our institutions of our *mainstream* cranks (or Knarcs). We cannot run a nuclear and economic superpower with geopolitical rivals in this way with fake leadership lying to the public 24/7 about almost everything.

1:26 AM · May 22, 2021

The quality of the authenticated UFO/UAP video is lousy. Do not imagine that this low quality video is the major data trove that has us discussing the unimaginable.

The truly major data in support of UFOs that we have as of today is simply the change in the official narrative.

10:42 PM · May 23, 2021

I’d guess that we’re at some point soon going to be confronted by stunningly clear reconstructions of incidents with crystal clear video, and that we have a collective freakout ahead where we’ll look back and marvel how they dribbled low quality video out to control our reaction.

10:46 PM · May 23, 2021

@regardthefrost You are getting ahead of me. I have a bunch of these... but yes. This is our new normal and needs discussion.

10:49 PM · May 23, 2021

Folk wisdom to the contrary, we are somehow mildly pregnant with UFOs.

1:29 AM · May 29, 2021

It’s very weird. It’s ongoing titration of UFO declassifications so that we never wake up to hear “It’s little green men!” nor “We figured out they were just seagulls covered in metallic flotsam.”

We just get pulled farther and farther out. Like a rip-tide you don’t even notice.

1:34 AM · May 29, 2021

I’m not saying that the UAP/UFO stuff is 👽. I am saying that we’re being *told* it’s 👽 in a game.

The game: we present a mystery (UFOs) and then take away all but one option. If you guess *anything* but 👽, we tell you it is de facto been ruled out.

Guess 👽, and we shrug 🤷‍♀️.

1:44 AM · May 29, 2021

This should be one of the major fronts of activism: Projection Mapping.

And: it sucks.

It’s off center. It’s not adapted to the façade. It’s not very clever. It’s not animated. It doesn’t use beveling, angles, or other architectural features beyond the two dimensional.

Why?

4:08 AM · May 30, 2021

I don’t know why this is taking so long. I think that the problem may be that we are missing brain power in our activism by crowding out technical knowhow with mind numbing social justice falsehoods.

What if the protest was done by these people instead:

https://t.co/YsF1VRkqt5

4:08 AM · May 30, 2021

I mean: couldn’t that change everything?

Imagine you wanted UFO disclosure & wanted to force news media to cover it. You could animate aliens and UFOs invading a government building to the tune “Planet Claire” by the B-52s: https://t.co/5bSi4B1WNT

So why don’t we see this much?

4:08 AM · May 30, 2021

You could own your institutional nemesis on any given night.

Get a flash mob to dance in front of it. Make it brilliant. Leave zero damage. Shoot the entire caper and put it on YouTube.

Instead we came up ‘mostly peaceful’ protests and “no justice, no peace.” We need better.

4:08 AM · May 30, 2021

I’m sick of the violence. I’m sick of the lame chants. I’m sick of the lectures about how everything is problematic. And so are most people.

But I’m not sick of genius, humor and people having fun who show the hard work and ability that translates to credibility for their ideas.

4:08 AM · May 30, 2021

Historically it has helped to win hearts and minds when the protesters are smarter, wittier, and more *just* than those they oppose.

Let’s get back to that. Let’s make protesting failing institutions smart, uplifting, noble and courageous again. Might just work.

Just a thought.

4:08 AM · May 30, 2021

Our National and military position on UAP/UFO in restricted military airspace makes no sense to me.

As in zero. Maybe I just don’t get it but I really really don’t get it. Can anyone make this make sense? Why is the leadership of the US scientific community totally absent?

7:36 PM · May 31, 2021

The US isn’t explaining or keeping secrets. We aren’t debunking. We aren’t defending ourselves. We aren’t interested as a nation or even particularly curious. We aren’t outraged. We do giggle a bit. We aren’t debating. We aren’t excited.

We are sleepwalking. As usual. Even here.

7:36 PM · May 31, 2021

Pentagon UFO rollout strategy explained: https://t.co/wAba32Z0XP

File:E3IyQYXVIAEseyl.jpg

6:01 PM · Jun 5, 2021

I’ve got nothing.

The declassified videos are, so far, very unimpressive to me. But the change in narrative is very impressive as are claims of sober military pilots.

The major evidence is still the Pentagon’s change in narrative until they stop playing footsie under the table.

6:23 PM · Jun 5, 2021

The statement I’m comfortable with:

I believe there is a faction of well meaning public spirited military people who have seen mountains of better data, who believe our military is regularly visited by non human tech and are pressuring others to roll out this thy incrementally.

6:23 PM · Jun 5, 2021

UFO / UAP Poll:

2:55 AM · Jun 6, 2021

Note: if you think this is Atlantis or future humans or Orca technology, choose “alien” to this earth. There just weren’t enough characters allowed. Sorry.

3:06 AM · Jun 6, 2021

On UFO/UAP: note the absence of top physicists. Or scientists more generally. Or academicians more generally than that.

Any science fiction author would know to get our leading physicists, geometers, evolutionary biologists, linguists on this if it’s real. Ok, so where are they?

7:01 PM · Jun 7, 2021

There has been a tiny response. Mostly we see military, ex-military and civilians UFO community commenting.

The number of top relevant academicians commenting is near zero. This is very odd because we know from the Manhattan project that you need to tap your academics. Thoughts?

7:04 PM · Jun 7, 2021

The UAP data is all of ours. Not the military’s exclusively.

It is scientific data. It is physics data.

We need to get it to our physicists. Not just our aerospace companies & defense contractors.

The Institute for advanced study, fully informed, should be leading discussion.

6:16 PM · Jun 8, 2021

@the_IAS > @LockheedMartin

This is ridiculous.

6:16 PM · Jun 8, 2021

Not releasing claimed (remarkable) data and expecting scientists comment is a recipe for destroying scientific credibility.

The Military destroyed lives of those who claimed to have seen what leaked.

I demand our data from the defense department. Demand yours as well.

UAP #UFO

7:26 PM · Jun 8, 2021

25000 of you answered. Almost 3 in 4 of you believe either that UFOs are a deliberate fabrication of the government and/or Next Generation US Tech, or from some previously unknown advanced civilization.

About 1 in 4 say the US is just incompetent (in error or being leapfrogged).

2:47 PM · Jun 9, 2021

UFO / UAP Poll:

2:55 AM · Jun 6, 2021

The poll ran for 3 days to decrease selection bias. It was stable from early on in the response patterns.

Over 2/5 of you have already gone to some form of alien explanation.

Even at this crude level I find this fascinating having run several of these Twitter polls in the past.

2:47 PM · Jun 9, 2021

The poll was intended to force people to make a definite guess:

There is nothing real there (lying or incompetence)

There is something there (US tech)

There is something there (Adversaries).

There is something there (Aliens)

More characters would have helped, but not much.

2:47 PM · Jun 9, 2021

But here is what I find fascinating: if 2/5 of us think this is Aliens, and 3/4 of us think the US is *baldly* lying on a matter of grave security, in possession of out of this world tech, or are being visited by advanced alien civilizations…and UAP is still not the top story.

2:47 PM · Jun 9, 2021

I personally have no idea what’s going on. If I believe in my country then it is most likely aliens. If I disbelieve my country we are engaged in a lie that will soon collapse and destroy our trust and credibility even more.

Moral: get us US scientists our own US UAP data. Now.

2:47 PM · Jun 9, 2021

My 1st tweet thread ever about UFO/UAP so far as I know was end of April of 2020.

So I am WAY late to this party.

Why? Because I thought this was all bullshit. I shutdown most every conversation until last year on this.

Why? Because it seemed obviously preposterous. I trusted.

11:02 PM · Jun 9, 2021

I never went through an X-files phase. No “Chariots of The Gods” or “Ancient Aliens” phase. Ever.

I can’t even conceive of a world where this national strategy makes any sense.

The US can be occasionally ruthless. But just plain dumb? I still can’t believe we are Keystone Cops.

11:02 PM · Jun 9, 2021

Assuming that UFOs are not space aliens, the UFO story is the top story in the world.

Assuming that no UFOs are even “real” as unknown craft, the UFO story is still the top story in the world.

The UFO story is therefore being “managed” as a side story. It can’t be a side story.

4:52 PM · Jun 12, 2021

Assume China.

Assume holograms.

Assume swamp gas and weather balloons.

Assume disinformation.

Assume incompetence.

Assume it’s our drones.

Assume PsyOp.

Assume it’s an attempt at distraction.

The story is groundbreaking no matter what is going on. This has never happened.

4:55 PM · Jun 12, 2021

Ok. Let’s play it out. I’m genuinely interested if I have this wrong & am open to being wrong. I’ll start.

Let’s agree video authenticated so far isn’t very impressive. How are seemingly intelligent craft in restricted military airspace not a big deal for a thermonuclear nation?

6:42 PM · Jun 12, 2021

What is the least interesting version of this story Mick? Forget the videos so far authenticated. That’s not the interesting part. That could be BS. There are so few and they are so low quality I don’t want to discuss them. I cede them for this discussion to you. Your take? 🙏

6:42 PM · Jun 12, 2021

@MickWest So your argument is that all of these reports/incidents are a small number of rare mistakes? I want to make sure I don’t misunderstand you.

I agree that if there are a small number of rare mistakes it’s not a big deal. I agree that we should have expected some random reports.

8:18 PM · Jun 12, 2021

@MickWest So you believe that the number of incidents that have been experienced is limited to 120 that occur in the report?

8:23 PM · Jun 12, 2021

@MickWest I have been told it is far more extensive.

8:24 PM · Jun 12, 2021

@MickWest Let’s agree that 120 low quality incidents over 20 yrs is not very compelling. That’s one every two months on average over our entire military.

So you believe we have the cream of the crop? If so, it’s shocking that our top people have not shut this down. Total irresponsibility.

9:08 PM · Jun 12, 2021

@MickWest But not merely “wow this is dumb”. It’s irresponsibility around a thermonuclear military with thermonuclear geopolitical strategic rivals. That’s would be a HUGE deal.

I’ve appreciated your take. But laying off the “hyperbole” type epithets: Is this what you are alleging?

9:15 PM · Jun 12, 2021

@MickWest I’m not sure what is complex here.

Playing footsie with a UFO narrative that sounds like “Unknown drones appear to be routinely harassing our pilots in restricted US military airspace.” Is incredibly dangerous.

I would take that to be self-evident.

That’s a top story for sure.

11:42 PM · Jun 12, 2021

@MickWest Here’s what I hear from you: “The pentagon has lost control of a minor UFO dept. that is having fun with a UFO narrative that endangers us all by raising the Issue of Bokeh, Birds, Baloons, etc in a way that is one toggle switch away from foreign adversaries harassing USmil.”

11:46 PM · Jun 12, 2021

@MickWest I’ve ceded everything you asserted to get here. And the story you seem to favor is still ENORMOUS.

Yours seems to be a story of incompetent UFO LARPers taking over a sensitive geopolitical narrative with zero adult supervision in thermonuclear geopolitical rivalry. Yes?

11:49 PM · Jun 12, 2021

@MickWest Mick: you’re losing me. If the pentagon is going along with a woo narrative because woo and drones are now interwoven that is *HUGE*. You can’t hybridize woo with thermonuclear rivals. I feel like you aren’t listening to yourself. A destabilizing nuclear narrative is a big deal.

3:00 AM · Jun 13, 2021

@MickWest I remember when Nancy Reagan consulted an astrologer and also advised her husband. It was a big big deal. This dwarfs that.

I think you aren’t taking the implications of your own points to their logical conclusions.

https://t.co/Fokmlzh3mb

3:02 AM · Jun 13, 2021

Dear @michaelshermer,

Thanks for this. Very sober. I myself also don’t find the authenticated videos so far released compelling. But I do find your challenge of “no isolated discontinuous innovation” quite interesting!

Might I propose a friendly debate among friendly skeptics?

Michael Shermer

@michaelshermer

Dear @EricRWeinstein Please see my argument for why UAPs cannot be foreign assets capable of physics & aerodynamics attributed to UAPs that if true would be decades or centuries ahead of us. History shows no nations/companies of comp development so lag. https://quillette.com/2021/06/03/understanding-the-unidentified/

10:13 PM · Jun 12, 2021

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

First of all, I am concerned that the paradigm of being scientifically or technologically “centuries ahead” is all wrong. This came up in a phone call with our buddy @SamHarrisOrg.

Q: How many centuries ahead is 1952-3 from 1900? I’d have guessed “many” (not .5) and been wrong.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

Next challenge: doesn’t your line of reasoning prove that “Renaissance Technologies” is either a fraud or a front? Their Medallion Fund is otherwise a long term unbreached secret, discontinuous from any other know investment fund seemingly thousands of years ahead of competitors.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

Now I’ve had the odd question about Renaissance (front not fraud) for just this reason. But either way, it’s either a counter example to your claims on discontinuous innovation if it is merely a fund or a counter-example to your secrecy claims if it is our secret physics program.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

Next: there are really two metrics on innovations.

Metric I: How big the incremental jump in difficulty.

Metric II: How big the jump in what is unlocked.

The great fear is that a small jump measured by 1 leading to an ENORMOUS jump in as measured by II.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

You are, to me, arguing powerfully that certain people can’t exist: Rodney Mullen, Edward Van Halen, Bob Beamon, Dick Fosbury, Hiroji Satoh, Satoshi Nakamoto, etc.

They all exhibited the “a little unlocks a lot” paradigm with Zero-Day exploits that were each decisive.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

And that brings us to theoretical physics. Beginning around 1982 , the son of the world’s top employed anti-gravity researcher(?!) of the 1950s turned in what may be the most impressive 15yr output in the history of the subject by my estimation. How can I begin to explain this?

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

It’s not physics exactly. But Edward Witten w support from a small number of folks rewrote Quantum Field Theory as geometry. If Einstein geometrized gravity, then Witten geometrized Quantum Field theory (everything else).

Now, all that change has so far unlocked exactly nothing.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

But it’s not that nothing happened in physics. While we were pretending that string theory was working, Witten & Co revolutionized our mathematical framework. Think of it as an enormous amount of unrealized gains. Pent up genius & power looking for its 1st application to the 🌎.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

If you gave us E Witten, J Simons, I Singer, CN Yang, M Atiyah, D Quillen & G Segal, in a quiet program in 1975, I could argue that they didn’t need much more. In fact you don’t need all 7 but for the sake of argument I can make the case using this. But Witten is the main engine.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

Now let me show you how I could get discontinuous innovation if I were China or Russia. I don’t know those systems as well so I’ll use the US example.

We know most of the top minds. We pretend that there is a lot of subjectivity about this for social reasons but China wouldn’t.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

If I thought like CCP, I’d create a lavish secret theoretical physics program modeled on the Russian Sharashka system. The key would be to get it to look like something else. A boring Tech company or some weird Chinese fund to disguise the reason for the secretive lavish campus.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

[Digression: If the US were smarter, we’d do it by setting up a mythic secret $B hedge fund that employs top differential geometers, theoretical physicists & ML experts by a national lab & an off brand university w/ inexplicably strong geometry & physics. But enough crazy talk..]

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

If CCP could today repeat what Witten (& friends) did building off Geometric Quantum Field Thy, the US would have Zero clue what it unlocks. Even by your own incrementalist theory. It might unlock absolutely nothing. Or passage to the stars via additional degrees of freedom. 🤷‍♂️

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

One last point. I released such a theory. Could well be wrong.

But I can tell you I should have received a call from DOE. Because calls are cheap and relevant trained PhDs are *very* finite. The US should track every geometer, General Relativist, and Particle Theorist working.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

You don’t have to take a position on me or GU. You can ask Wolfram or Lisi or Barbour or Deutsche or anyone outside the system whether such calls are placed. They are not. No one *in* the system believes in wild discontinuous change from *outside* the system. As per your article.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

Which is to say we’re not monitoring. Maybe we think that’s a waste of taxpayer dollars. Maybe we think that a Grisha Perelman of physics is impossible.

How much does a phone call cost if a researcher is wrong vs not bothering if they’re right? Price the Type I & II error. Nuts.

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

Discontinuous innovation is always unlikely. But never impossible.

We are both skeptics. But this UFO story is weird beyond belief Michael. I can’t think of a single story to fit to these reports I’m hearing about.

I welcome your thoughts. As always.

Warm regards,

Eric

5:40 PM · Jun 13, 2021

Michael, intellectually I am always very glad to have you on that wall.

Skepticism with an open mind is a lot rarer than reflexive skepticism. Thanks to you and @DrBrianKeating for a rather different UFO conversation than either wild eyed belief or knee jerk rejectionism. 🙏

3:49 PM · Jun 17, 2021

John reached out to me not all that long ago. I also will not kill myself. I’m not suicidal.

Also, this is getting fucking ridiculous.

This authoritarian turn around Epstein, Wuhan, Ivermectin, “Fortifying Democracy”, UAP, climate, mostly peaceful protests, Leaked Tax Returns…

Getting subtle messages from U.S. officials saying, in effect: "We're coming for you McAfee! We're going to kill yourself". I got a tattoo today just in case. If I suicide myself, I didn't. I was whackd. Check my right arm.

…mandatory racism exorcism at work, #metoo witch hunts, shadowbanning, Build Back Better, Trust and Safety, TOS changes, compulsory speech, ANTIFA denials, Labor Shortage claims, denial etc…etc… is clearly a repudiation of all the US stands for. He was bugged by it all.

10:27 PM · Jun 23, 2021

And if you mention the ENORMOUS number of issues that are behaving in this *same* totally artificial fashion, the reputation attacks SOAR from all sides.

What the hell has control of the US and why is it localized to the Democratic Party & it’s associated media and businesses?

I wish I could remember his call w/ more precision. But it was when I was in San Francisco. I couldn’t believe I was known to him.

NOTE: I will be taking a new approach to all repetitive doxing, reputational or other attacks as a result.

Think I’m done fucking around.

10:27 PM · Jun 23, 2021

Having been menaced over asking for Epstein as a fake “Disgraced Financier” to be called out by our press and connected to any intelligence services, this takes on new meaning.

When you can’t call your own damn teams for help, who can you even call?

I so hate this shit. RIP JM.

10:27 PM · Jun 23, 2021

Responsible folks share w/ me hoping that if I believe them, they wont have to share under their own name. I shared some of what was shared with me.

My market saying is "Early is another name for wrong." In UFO land "Early is another name for presumed Crazy".

Time to apologize.

3:43 PM · Jun 26, 2021

To all the UFO people who were getting it right: I blew it. I thought you were bored, easily convinced, read too much sci-fi as kids, were easily taken in. I thought there was no way this could ambiguously exist in a world flooded with sensors. I thought you were not getting it.

3:43 PM · Jun 26, 2021

I am very late to your party and even having gotten the report mostly right, it has been exceptionally unpleasant to get in front of it by even a few months. I can only imagine how it feels after the many years the US has gaslight you all while knowing you were not wrong.

3:43 PM · Jun 26, 2021

A lot of UFO people are nutty. But you the careful community that called balls and strikes as best you could with limited information deserve not only rehabilitation in the minds of the public, but some official recognition that you are to be listened to in the future. Thank you.

3:43 PM · Jun 26, 2021

I believe you now when you say that there is even much more high quality data available but that it has not been released.

At a personal level: You were right, I was wrong. Thanks for letting me join you at the 'last minute' in the few months before the report. I'll listen more.

3:43 PM · Jun 26, 2021

I also wanted to say to the non-ufo community that whatever I got right largely didn't come from me. It came from patriots, fellow scientists & others who were not taken in the way I was. All I did was a bit of filtering and after market analysis given the gravity of the issue.

3:48 PM · Jun 26, 2021

DOD: It appears not to be that we can't confirm that it's no longer the case that with multiple sensor data that it is now unlikely that at least some UAP are likely to be non-human technology or enemies leapfrogged us.

Public: Huh. Gosh. Ok. Meh.

DOD: Phew. Dodged that bullet.

4:20 PM · Jun 26, 2021

It’s totally irresponsible for any scientist to refuse to investigate UAP after this report with a full and unpruned decision tree at her side.

That includes considering the total incompetence of the defense department, *aliens*, spoofing by enemies and UFO political economy.

6:37 PM · Jun 26, 2021

Name a single species on earth so insignificant that biologists do not bother to include it on the phylogenetic tree or consider it interesting?

Neil:Pardon me for asking, but isn’t *this* an egocentric anti-curiosity position elevating radical obligate “debunking” over science?

1:14 AM · Jun 28, 2021

Neil deGrasse Tyson

@neiltyson

How egocentric of us to think that Space Aliens, who have mastered interstellar travel across the Galaxy, would give a shit about humans on Earth.

12:32 AM · Jun 28, 2021

This isn’t meant as a dig. I am trying to use your same exactly choice of normative framing that you used to dismiss my fellow inquiring minds in the wake of the UAP report. Happy to remove it if we can get rid of the invective. Thanks.

1:19 AM · Jun 28, 2021

1:23 AM · Jun 28, 2021

I subscribe to an unpopular position. Consider 3 kinds of 🌎:

A) Ones with no life or at least no life within striking distance of the source code (ToE).

B) Worlds that are on the verge of gaining the source code but are confined to a terrestrial surface.

C) Root level access.

2:15 AM · Jun 29, 2021

Now, if you can jack into the cosmos as ‘Root’ it MAY facilitate stuff that’s unimaginable (e.g. dimension hacking) yet only one remaining big upgrade away from being able to fuse nuclei. Which is where we are now.

I’d guess all civilizations that are Root care about each other.

2:15 AM · Jun 29, 2021

The following is pure speculation (Tutored by experience w/ GU):

I think we sent a signal to the cosmos in 1945 and then on Nov. 1, 1952. Fusing Nuclei is what you do JUST before you become root. If this is right, we let the cosmos know “Earth is root adjacent” w/o awareness.

2:15 AM · Jun 29, 2021

Is there anyone in the cosmos listening? Perhaps not. But we are all acting as if living on a terrestrial surface with the ability to fuse nuclei is some totally normal thing due to <70 years of good luck. Which is insane.

Now what if I’m right in the above and the cosmos cares?

2:15 AM · Jun 29, 2021

The idea of a newly space-time-faring unwise civilization with fresh root level access is a nightmare. And no one but no one on earth takes this seriously anymore. After 1952 fundamental physics went on progressing normally for ~20yrs. So after that it’s been~50yrs of stagnation.

2:15 AM · Jun 29, 2021

In those ~50yrs we learned to stop worrying. About Fusion-weapons, interstellar travel, a cosmos that listens or even our ability to progress to the end. In 1984, physicists were talking about the end of physics without irony. They then failed, while failing to report failure.

2:15 AM · Jun 29, 2021

So they told another story: “String theory didn’t fail!! It may take 100s of years to figure it out!” That is “If we String Theorists can’t make progress, a Theory of Everything is now far over the Horizon for everyone else.” But that’s not logically necessary. I say we’re close.

2:15 AM · Jun 29, 2021

It makes sense to worry about *every* small boutique program: Lisi, Wolfram, Barbour, LQG, Tegmark, ConnesLott, Octonions, amplitudhedron, etc. Our science/defense establishment doesn’t seem to get this idea: after 50yrs of no progress it seems too abstract to practical men.

2:15 AM · Jun 29, 2021

I learned from my buddy @SamHarrisOrg that he thought 👽 would be Millenia ahead of us. Look at Nov 1, 1952 from Nov 1 1902: you don’t have powered flight, know what relativity or the quantum is, know that neutrons exist, know about anti-matter, etc.

From ‘02, ‘52 IS millennia. https://t.co/YiRc1AbkcU

2:16 AM · Jun 29, 2021

Well, we may or may not have a major update in our future. And if it unlocks dimension hacking, looking glass matter, VEV/potential hacking, multi-temporal pseudo-Riemannian metrics, Dark Chemisty, Dark Light, additional families, RaritaSchwinger fields, etc then we get upgraded.

2:16 AM · Jun 29, 2021

And I believe all at once.

What does that mean? I honestly don’t know.

But Imagine you sent a chainsaw, a Bugatti, Ibogaine, “My-1st-Crisper”, and an F-18 to a badly behaved 5yr old child for a birthday present w a simple card: “Enjoy!” We’d worry specifically b/c immaturity.

2:16 AM · Jun 29, 2021

That’s what NDT has most wrong. He thinks we are far behind anything that could visit us, but that ISN’T backed up by science. He’d have to explain why we aren’t “root adjacent” right now or that root buys us nothing. Well?

Think of the relationship of Iran to nukes for example.

2:16 AM · Jun 29, 2021

Iran is now Nuke adjacent. And their facilities and scientists keep running into mysterious problems. Why? Surely not because Iran is too insignificant to her more advanced neighbors. That would mirror NDT’s argument. My argument is that root level access to nuclei *suffices*.

2:16 AM · Jun 29, 2021

Am I saying “Aliens are here”? Of course not. But the “Root Adjacency Hypothesis” is not properly discussed almost anywhere. Which defies all explanation.

Perhaps everyone else is right & I’m wrong. Absolutely! But it’s common for the world to make a crazy dumb idea a consensus.

2:16 AM · Jun 29, 2021

And I think NDT is enforcing a dangerous “Copernican” consensus that we are too insignificant to even monitor or visit, to go along with “We’ve had Nukes for 70 years without losing a city. I wouldn’t worry. What could possibly go wrong.”

This is just a human rationality flaw.🙏

2:16 AM · Jun 29, 2021

When does Jon Stewart signal it is finally okay to talk about progressing cognitive decline?

4:23 PM · Jun 29, 2021

He isn’t the only one. Jon did the Wuhan lab leak. @TIME did ‘fortification’ 2020. @BarackObama got UAP and Wokeness. Brad Delong got to reveal NAFTA was social Darwinian…

But the rules are very clear on EXACTLY who is allowed to say “Previous Fringe view X is now Mainstream!”

4:59 PM · Jun 29, 2021

What was special about Stewart was quite subtle. He didn’t say “The facts have changed.” He said: it’s obvious & has always been so, that the Biosafety Level4 Bat Corona Virus lab is the likely origin while Colbert feigned being shocked: The Gated Institutional Narrative updated.

4:59 PM · Jun 29, 2021

An irrational attachment to being able to feed their families & avoid reputational ruin on a going forward basis. Call it a hunch.

UAP with crappy video and without hard data is unbounded downside with limited upside for scientists.

It’s absurd: We don’t bring in our own team.

6:35 PM · Jun 30, 2021

The fact that many of us have moved on from the UAP report is fascinating.

During the financial crisis, the phrase “Non-Recourse Loan” was used to describe the government’s ‘relief’ strategy.

And folks just walked right by “Non-Recourse Loans” as if it were just boring jargon.

4:41 AM · Jul 4, 2021

@JohnGingyJo Read it *super* closely. That’s the only way it is so interesting.

4:49 AM · Jul 4, 2021

Physics’ Overton Window.

We can talk about CRAZY stuff that’s irrelevant to our lives & never progresses: Boltzmann Brains, Many Worlds, String Theory Unification, AdS, Super-partners, etc.

We can’t talk about anything that COULD suddenly change everything. UAP, other TOEs, etc

5:34 PM · Jul 9, 2021

My point isn’t at all that low probability topics are likely to change everything. It’s that we feel *safe* knowing certain crazy ideas always seem to lead nowhere. But we feel unsafe when we don’t know if what we’re looking at *could* surprise us by suddenly changing our world.

5:43 PM · Jul 9, 2021

An example: In GU, relativity theory is recovered from the Observerse which is constructed around two separate spaces X and Y. Einstein’s Spacetime (a signature (1,3) 4-manifold with pseudo Riemannian metric) is recovered from observations of Y by X.

6:11 PM · Jul 9, 2021

Another example. Some see spacetime as the commutative limit of a non-commutative manifold. That would be beyond relativity.

Others see topology changing operators that allow agents to change spacetime topologically. Again that would be beyond the usual relativity theory.

6:11 PM · Jul 9, 2021

But in standard Relativity theory as an effective theory, I don’t think about FTL. Sorry.

6:11 PM · Jul 9, 2021

Scratch the UAP story and you soon learn that there are a surprising number of seemingly sane people orbiting around the Pentagon who assert that UAP are particularly active around our nuclear weapons.

What to make of this? 🤷‍♀️ But the above *can* be said *without* speculation.

4:46 PM · Oct 8, 2021

Are they all insane? Don’t know. Seems unlikely.

Are they propagandized? Seems far fetched but possible.

Is it a Psy-op? Maybe.

Mass psychosis? Don’t think so. But it could be a self reinforcing belief.

But no one wants to chew up their credibility talking about these rumors.

4:51 PM · Oct 8, 2021

And just so we are clear on the nature of the rumors, here is what you hear over and over again:

“The UAP aren’t merely hovering over nukes. The UAP know how to *shut down* nuclear weapons.”

This is why I never listened to UFO rumors BEFORE the DOD report. It’s just too crazy.

4:55 PM · Oct 8, 2021

Things I don't believe we can't conclusively resolve:

A) COVID's origin.

B) The Jeffrey Epstein story.

C) UAP.

D) JFK assassination.

E) Vegas Shooting.

F) Extent of 'Democracy Fortifying' in 2020.

G) Efficacy of Non-Vaccines.

H) Mysterious WEF 'Build Back Better' mantra.

7:17 PM · Oct 23, 2021

I) Negative impacts of Trade known to have been suppressed.

J) Adulteration of BLS CPI measure of inflation.

K) Negative economic impacts of Immigration.

L) Sudden spike in fake 'Objective Third Party Fact Checking'.

M) Sudden "Diversity Equity Inclusion" explosion.

7:17 PM · Oct 23, 2021

Q) Joe Biden's state of cognitive decline.

R) Nature of MSNBC campagin against Andrew Yang.

S) Nature of Dean Scream, Anti-Ron Paul and other interference in democracy by Mainstream media News.

T) Impact of loss of mandatory retirement on young people seeking work.

U) Rex84.

7:17 PM · Oct 23, 2021

V) Collusion between National Academy and National Science foundation division of Policy Research and Analysis to fake demographic crisis in mid 1980s.

W) Lack on anyone building the significant & desperately needed new non-profit institutions despite skyhigh wealth inequality.

7:17 PM · Oct 23, 2021

X) Loss of Academic Freedom across the board in Academe.

Y) Loss of the Lancet and other publications as trusted non-political sources of fact.

Z) The true nature of @EcoHealthNYC w its relationship to @doddtra & Dr A. Fauci.

Moral: much of this 'ambiguity' is serving the few.

7:17 PM · Oct 23, 2021

@MLGACE Whatever our data is for UFO/UAP. Accelerations. Heat signature. Cloaking. Transmedia behavior. Cornering ability. I have no idea. I just know we aren't looking at high quality data and I know we have MUCH higher quality data than has been released.

5:52 AM · Oct 24, 2021

After a zoom call yesterday with Avi Loeb, I’ve decided to join Harvard’s Galileo Project on its Research Team.

Time to de-stigmatize the whole topic and help the data talk. The claimed phenomenon of UFO/UAP, after all, should be a scientific question.

https://t.co/kx5NgtILML

5:24 PM · Dec 20, 2021

A key point. We use cosmic rays as if they were from an accelerator. There is an outside chance that UAP should be thought of the same way.

If we’re hurting for new physical phenomena to analyze, some portion of our physics effort should be spent debunking or understanding UAP.

5:24 PM · Dec 20, 2021

@delta_waverider There are many sightings that are bunk. Your issue is with the nature of the complement of that set. But debunking will need to be done in all future scenarios. Nature of the beast.

7:17 PM · Dec 20, 2021

@michaelshermer I haven’t seen any compelling data. I have been told that such data exists in abundance from multiple sources that I trust. No idea how to square that.

9:04 PM · Dec 20, 2021

@s_offiler @michaelshermer Not saying anything beyond that I find the videos released uncompelling as data. I find the incident super interesting. Would like to see the entire time series of data taken in by all sensors.

10:16 PM · Dec 20, 2021

I have been dismayed by the senator before this.

But this is correct. And courageous. UAP is both a security and a scientific issue. Stop the giggles. Start the study.

Maybe I was too hasty about dismissing KG. Opening my mind again.

5:55 AM · Dec 23, 2021

2022

Can someone authenticate the existence of this claim for me? I’m new to UFOs. Before the report on UAP this last summer, I would think this is BS.

Now I believe it’s more likely to be real, having updated my Bayesian priors. And, again, apologies to all of you I’ve denigrated.

3:40 PM · Jan 10, 2022

Is there such a text?

Has the USG owned up to it?

Is there a PDF of it circulating?

Are there others attached to Wright Patterson AFB, or the RIAS, or the Physical Fields institute of UNC Chappell Hill or Brown University’s Non Linear Dynamics Group, or the Glen L Martin Co.?

3:44 PM · Jan 10, 2022

Sorry for the weird specificity but I’m trying to link this to things that I know to be real and that I’ve been puzzled about for years that never made sense to me.

Also, it’s hard to fake an entire text competently. So this is interesting.

Thanks #ufotwitter.

3:48 PM · Jan 10, 2022

Hi Michael,

Not updating my priors on all UFO sightings. I’m updating my priors on “The Golden Age of General Relativity”, B DeWitt, L Witten, RIAS, the Martin Company, etc.” And I’m doing it based on a government report inconsistent with the closing report of BlueBook. And you?

4:20 PM · Jan 10, 2022

Michael Shermer

@michaelshermer

Dear @EricRWeinstein

According to UFOlogists 95% of all sightings for all time are explained by natural/terrestrial phenom (planes, blimps, geese, sun dogs, lens flares, etc.). 5% unexplained (≠ ET or Russian tech). X new sighting is made. Which bin is X most likely to be in?

4:05 PM · Jan 10, 2022

We have been spun. And as skeptics we have to notice the inconsistencies.

We were likely either spun this last summer, or spun at the closure of Operation BlueBook.

The whole thing sounds like total bullshit. But we also have a lot of weird stuff from real 1950s science.

4:26 PM · Jan 10, 2022

Who were Babson and Bahnson? Those stories don’t make much sense. Why Bryce and Cecile DeWitt and Peter Higgs in Chappell hill funded as part of a weird anti-gravity program?

Simple question: how did you tutor your priors last summer? Not at all? A tiny amount?

Skeptically, E

4:26 PM · Jan 10, 2022

My colleague and friend Jesse Michels asked me to interview Dr. @haroldputhoff on UAP/UFO. Wasn’t sure how to do this, so we tried oscillating between steelmanning and critiquing what Puthoff was able to say within his obligations of non-disclosure.

Can we just end the secrecy?

11:42 AM · Feb 12, 2022

For those of you speculating on channels reaching out to Sam Harris, myself and others on UFO/UAP. There was a minimum of one planned dissemination that got called off for reasons unknown. I am not at liberty to discuss. But I can say why people like Sam are likely to be quiet.

3:13 PM · May 12, 2022

What has so far been released to the public by government has been minimal. No one I know wants to incinerate credibility becoming a true believer over a tiny number of relatively low quality USG videos which, at least to me, prove absolutely nothing.

So then: why be interested?

3:13 PM · May 12, 2022

Because there is an ocean of weird behavior and claims coming from otherwise sober seeming USG and former USG people. And a lot of it is weirdly consistent. So I’m totally underwhelmed by the direct evidence so far. But I’m baffled by the indirect evidence. What generated this?

3:13 PM · May 12, 2022

I won’t speak for @SamHarrisOrg. But I failed to generate *any* good explanation for the repeated and fairly consistent assertions of DOD/IC types with no evident training in acting or theater. To say nothing of ordinary non-USG people. So…none of us knows what to think. Truly.

3:13 PM · May 12, 2022

Something huge is up. It could be a psychological operation. It could be next generation spoofing by an adversary. It could be mass psychosis. But I don’t want to speculate beyond a decision tree. Something huge *is* up. And I dug hard, but failed to get beyond indirect evidence.

3:13 PM · May 12, 2022

What is worse, the most parsimonious explanations are the obvious two:

A) Our government is engaged in deception and utterly brilliant at it.

B) 👽.

If the former, it is more competent than we ever suspected.

Everything else is less parsimonious. But I can’t make sense of it.

3:13 PM · May 12, 2022

One request: stop speculating. Some folks are reaching out. They pulled back a bit. And I for one may stop talking about this if asked due to the security issues. But that which has been shared with the public is not enough to go on. It’s the indirect evidence we are watching. 🙏

3:13 PM · May 12, 2022

I developed a private principle which has been useful in life. It says:

“A fair coin can’t always land on its side, seemingly by accident, without constant, deliberately cryptic active management by others unseen.”

This UAP coin always seems to land on its side.

5:45 PM · May 17, 2022

@MickWest Mick, I don’t know how to communicate this, but you seem to want to be a dedicated debunker here. What direct evidence has been shared with the public, on its own, doesn’t seem to require this level of aggressive debunking. It’s just not that compelling. I agree with you on that.

6:45 PM · May 17, 2022

@MickWest Simply put, trying to turn it all into the occult + swamp gas + reflections on a lens + lying to get attention etc…doesn’t seem very compelling. Some of it is surely that, but something else is likely at play. There’s too much that doesn’t fit that description for it to so easy.

6:51 PM · May 17, 2022

@MickWest Hope you are right. Or wrong. But this is seemingly a lot weirder than you are admitting. Too many grownups with security clearances and training telling too many similar stories at this point. Maybe it’s all fake. If so, I’d be impressed. But I don’t understand your confidence.

6:53 PM · May 17, 2022

@MickWest Appreciate your perspective. Didn’t have that before. Thanks Mick.

10:15 PM · May 17, 2022

I’m just going to say it:

Is this our BEST video/data/imagery when it comes to withstanding scrutiny?? Why choose this??

Let us guess: there will be yet more releases of things that are less impressive than ordinary photography, photoshop, CGI, or video games.

Enough already.

11:04 PM · May 17, 2022

This is coming to feel like an infinite tease. Let’s stop making our nation, our military & our government look like idiots. Reveal or don’t. Show or don’t. We all get that there are security issues. But stop teasing with blobs, blurs and snippets less convincing than deep fakes.

11:04 PM · May 17, 2022

My physics colleagues generally still have yet to incorporate what is going on in the changing UAP picture.

All of this lawyerly “observations that currently cannot be completely explained” soft language in the absence of hard data is pretty confusing.

3:27 PM · Jun 9, 2022

Imagine if an MD said to you “For legal reasons protecting our clinic, I can’t share your data with you, but it is not impossible that a still small number of atypical cells may be non locally replicating above baseline.” as a way of letting you know you had metastasized tumor.

3:27 PM · Jun 9, 2022

You might, or might not, even understand what a serious situation you were in. It all sounds so bloodless.

If you did understand it, you would want to see the data. It is YOUR data after all. Data about you.

That’s where we are. No real data. Bloodless language. Few scientists.

3:27 PM · Jun 9, 2022

More or less, we are increasingly being told we have what *appear* to be *large* numbers of craft of unknown origin in our skies and seas taking an unusual interest in world military activities so that our own government has asymmetrically good data it doesn’t want to show us.

3:27 PM · Jun 9, 2022

Some portion of the USG is saying we are repeatedly being visited by non human technology. Some other portion of the government is saying “Don’t say that” either because it is a lie or they want it to stay hidden.

The net effect: destruction of trust in government and science.

3:27 PM · Jun 9, 2022

It is now time to inform us all. It is either an elaborate USG psyop hoax or something of incomparable significance. It’s not swamp gas anymore. It’s not Mylar balloons and a few people desperate to get on television.

But it is definitely time to end the soft language. It’s big.

3:27 PM · Jun 9, 2022

@MickWest Mick, no offense, but at this point you are just wrong. There are factions within government, ex-government and government contracting, and some of them are saying that. Enough.

Or as you say: BS. Sorry.

11:51 PM · Jun 9, 2022

@MickWest Mick, don’t take this the wrong way. But you are highly motivated and stigmatizing. When you ask “who?” you are playing dumb. I have agreed with you that the videos aren’t compelling. But you don’t quit.

So either play the debunker or don’t. But this isn’t 2 guys and 3 videos.

1:45 AM · Jun 10, 2022

@MickWest Obviously a lot of serious people are scared about reputational attacks. But this isn’t in range of just debunking a few videos anymore. Something is going on. We just can’t know with confidence if it is real deception or real phenomena until real data is released. Clear?

1:48 AM · Jun 10, 2022

@MickWest I’m getting fatigued. I don’t talk much about the Tic Tac. Or the Zimbabwe kids. Or Lue. Or Remote Viewing. Clear?

There are an enormous number of IC and DOD related folks who want to know what we are seeing. And this “Debunking” grainy videos feels petty. It’s not the videos.

1:51 AM · Jun 10, 2022

@MickWest I had to admit that there is an unbelievable amount of indirect evidence that something is going on with not much direct evidence.

That’s pretty weird. But pretending that this is either debunked or real misses the point. And I can’t keep having this nonprogressing interaction.

Request for Help: have any of the technical folks claiming UAP knowledge been interviewed by technical folks w/ knowledge of General Relativity & Particle physics?

I would like to watch such a conversation dealing with the dry science of how UAP are claimed/thought to work. 🙏

4:59 AM · Jul 20, 2022

This could include someone like Eric Davis, Bob Lazar, Travis Taylor, etc. maybe at blackboard talking over equations/Lagrangians, rather than merely speaking in prose

And if this doesn’t exist, why doesn’t it exist? Forgive me, but I don’t know the history here. Seems odd. Thx.

4:59 AM · Jul 20, 2022

I have been told this repeatedly by sober seeming USG and ex-USG folks. That both the US Navy and Air Force hold video of *arbitrarily* high quality backed up by extensive sensor data.

I have seen none of it. Zero. If I had signed away my right to disclose, I could not say this.

5:10 PM · Sep 12, 2022

It may all be an elaborate lie. But the basic stories are pretty consistent. And one of them is that the UAP take an asymmetric interest in our advanced militaries. Unfortunately, that is also consistent with military disinformation, weapons R&D, spying, etc. i.e. cover stories.

5:14 PM · Sep 12, 2022

So one version of events is that the military holds this high quality video/data because the UAP focused on our advanced militaries. The other version is that UAP cover stories are used by the Military to disguise what are sensitive security issues. But without the hard data… 🙏

5:18 PM · Sep 12, 2022

Under Newton, we were free to explore the cosmos: 1686-1905.

Einstein then enforced house arrest to our solar system:1905-Now.

@elonmusk then said chemical rockets could get us 2 more spheres w Newtonian laws.

But survival hinges on going *beyond* Einstein, not back to Newton.

4:43 PM · Sep 14, 2022

I’m not going to complicate the basic story with caveats. That’s the basic plot.

Either there is freedom to leave based on new ideas, like GU, or the Einsteinian restrictions will persist.

If they persist; we probably can mildly elongate survival here by decades via wisdom.

But if we can leave to explore the universe by going beyond Einstein, anyone else out there can visit.

This brings us to UFO/UAP. Assuming a distribution of life in the cosmos:: some life is behind us in science, with others ahead.

A (loose) argument then links UAP to survival:

5:01 PM · Sep 14, 2022

If life is abundant & we’re not the top of the hierarchy (which is reasonable to me), I’d guess that UAP would be here if that is possible in Einstein’s successor theories. The absence of UAP is strong but *inconclusive* proof that Einstein’s restrictions persist in all theory.

5:05 PM · Sep 14, 2022

Hence my interest in UAP. UAP from distant worlds would be a strong indication that it is possible to diversify our shared risk which is that all known technological life is dependent on one atmosphere linking our three main existential risks:

A) Climate
B) Pathogen
C) Radiation

5:08 PM · Sep 14, 2022

So if #ufotwitter ever wanted to know why I didn’t take #UFO seriously, it was because I thought it was *preposterous* given lack of evidence.

And if #ScienceTwitter wants to know why I spun on a dime, it’s because it IS linked to the post-Einsteinian physics of our survival. 🙏

This official US government military website has now REMOVED its extremely bizarre insignia…as if this was just totally normal behavior.

I have no idea what’s going on or what the official narrative will be around this. I was told to focus on its color scheme as the main clue.

This pattern of “extend, then retract” has been my consistent experience of the entire official USG, IC, DoD, part of the UAP/UFO world.🙏

@thatdudej6 @Deepfryguy76 @Puthoffbyputho1 @dwpasulka @TUPACABRA2 @FullStackLogan Many decision makers interpret UFO-UAP in religious terms. And the population has an enormous pre-existing memetic complex of religious ideology. So it is essential. Even if you are a hard core atheist.

10:18 PM · Oct 12, 2022

I’m happy to answer a few.

It’ll be fewer than I’d like. I was invited to participate in the press conference about to start, but that project is totally separate, so I politely declined the gracious offer of my hosts, as I came here as *unaffiliated* observer.

How may I help?

11:50 AM · Oct 24, 2022

If you’re not interested in my responses, or feel I owe you total personal disclosure, I politely decline in advance and suggest you unfollow. Any abuse of good will ends in a block. Those are my rules so that I can say all I might to those genuinely interested. Fair? Let’s go!

11:52 AM · Oct 24, 2022

@DasWoolf I was not expecting to speak. The guest of honor, Lue Elizondo, became unavailable at the last minute. I was asked to step in. As a courtesy I agreed, and shared some ideas that represent no one but myself as a private US citizen working with publicly available info. Specifics?

11:57 AM · Oct 24, 2022

@andyinberlin I am not as sure as you are that this what is going on. It’s a matryoshka problem. I’m convinced that many people you think of as insiders are not really inside enough. The UAP/UFO community leaps to MANY conclusions as if this is fun. This is not fun if you are serious about it.

12:02 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@ALean_Skye I don’t think people understand disclosure properly. Consider layers:

A) The basic *claimed* phenomena.
B) Associate phenomena.
C) Cover up of the above.
D) People in the know living a lie.
E) Outsiders being destroyed to keep secrets.
F) Outsiders being forced to live lies.

12:06 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@ALean_Skye Disclosure likely has to do with F) as much as anything. No matter what A) Turns out to be. Which I still don’t really know. If you are fighting for disclosure, don’t over focus on whether we are prepared for A).

I’m not inflating my level of knowledge here. I still don’t know.

12:09 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@andyinberlin I see a lot of people struggling under a heavy weight. People take their NDAs very seriously.

12:11 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@dkb003 Official panels tend to be tightly controlled in advance through use of insiders. Occasionally that screws up and you get a Jeff Sachs (Lancet) or a Richard Feynman/Gen Kutyna (Challenger). Galileo Project is an outsider project. Prefer the latter.

12:14 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@DasWoolf Technology is the entry point *if* recovered craft are real. I’ve seen no such proof. None.

But it is *psychotic* not to have Particle Theorists, General Relativists and Differential Geometers all over our US effort. I have yet to meet one in two years. Makes me very suspicious.

12:18 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@DasWoolf One thought is that it is very hard to make up ghost stories about how Alcubierre Drives, Wormholes, Time Dilation, etc REALISTICALLY account for this with actual specialists.

I mean, I get it. But it’s nonsense. This is not about tech. It’s about post-GR/SM physics or a psyop.

12:22 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@DasWoolf It could sorta kinda maybe be a cover story for advanced tech. But I can’t get that to make sense yet. Maybe my failure of imagination.

12:23 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@delbel156 If others have gone beyond GR/SM to navigate/settle the cosmos, I don’t think they would let us leave this solar system with the BS we see in Russia/Ukraine, Wuhan etc. We look like a crazy species about to unlock the source code. It’s unbelievable. We look like savage fools.

Same rules as before. No changes on my part. I’m doing this only because I am not trying to hide anything that I am in a reasonable position to share and many of you want to know what the heck is going on as much as I do. But there are limits. Such is life.

Shoot.

11:21 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@McLuhanStates @LueElizondo There is a lot of loose talk about dimensionality. Keep in mind that I have zero direct evidence of the phenomena. So this is wildly premature.

My interest here is that GU replaces one manifold with two in a bundle structure and adds BOTH temporal and spatial dimensions.

11:24 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@McLuhanStates @LueElizondo As the author of GU, I still don’t know how to think in multiple temporal dimensions. The math is quite exotic. But I at least know through GU that the math can FORCE us to confront ultra hyperbolic PDE. It would change everything we know if unscreened. No simple Hamiltonian.

11:26 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@McLuhanStates @LueElizondo I wish people would stop talking about higher dimensional beings though. If GU is on point, then we are also higher dimensional beings. So I could do without Exoticism. If this is in any way real, we should reserve speech for precise meanings. And I don’t know if it is real. Yet.

11:31 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@prowl4uap @LueElizondo Here goes. I still feel like this FEELS like bullshit. Particularly the number of explicit depictions of Tetrapod hominid like beings.

But the truckloads of indirect evidence suggests NHI. I just don’t have a way of squaring this. And the “experiencers” are breaking my heart.

11:35 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@prowl4uap @LueElizondo I wasn’t prepared for this part to be honest. I’ve met so many voices who’s lives were taken over by an experience that they seemingly didn’t want. People breaking down. As far from attention seeking as you can imagine with no theater background. It’s pretty hard to explain away.

11:37 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@prowl4uap @LueElizondo Why would ordinary folks ruin their lives like this? No money in it. No desire for fame. No other signs of shifted reality. So I don’t know what to say.

The absence of direct evidence screams BS. The indirect evidence screams some wildly new thing in town. And I’m too dumb here.

11:41 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@mikedduffey @LueElizondo Don’t know. Less if not asked to do something official. I hate this topic. It’s an infinite conundrum. Always a new hint. Never just some actual solid trustworthy data.

@montanacasey @LueElizondo Don’t know who that is. I see the name around. But I’m not really in this space. It’s embarrassing. But I’m not a ufologist. And there is so much ufology that I’m not up on this stuff. My fault.

11:45 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@smbodie3 @LueElizondo People were very kind. Apparently I did some wrong things on stage. But a condition of taking this on the night before was that I would be me. They decided this is real. I don’t have that data. I am still spread over real / not real until I see something super clear & concrete.

11:47 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@twitpucker @LueElizondo I’d start with academic freedom and civility. There is more than enough here to DEMAND answers. This belongs to science as much as it does to NatSec. We don’t need a Fauci for UAP. We need physics and math to begin. Biology if warranted. Let’s just be serious if it is a threat.

11:51 PM · Oct 24, 2022

@twitpucker @LueElizondo The gigglers & shamers & accusers need to get a pacifier and a juice box for a time out. We gave out too many PhDs to mediocre souls. It’s a disaster. It’s nuts that they’re STILL here to inhibit consideration of this after all the claims by USG.

Too much inclusion of trolls.

12:02 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@RGoddardishere @LueElizondo Would prefer not to. I need data and an end to NatSec paternalism. This is either serious or it isn’t. If it isn’t, stop wasting time. If it is, you need the physicists and geometers at a minimum. Where are they??

12:04 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@codingfodder @LueElizondo Read @notevenwrong’s excerpts of the David E Kaplan interview. We need to clean house to revitalize physics as if our lives depend on its progress. Anyone who wants to whine about taxpayer dollars for theoretical physics gets thrown out of the planning discussion. So destructive.

12:08 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@UAPDAO @LueElizondo Yes…but it’s like space opera. Lots of claims. I’d like to see something. Isn’t it a bit weird to hear these super detailed stories with hard NO EVIDENCE this even happened?

12:15 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@SergheiIancenco @McLuhanStates @LueElizondo There’s an operation called “Pull Back” in differential topology. It’s akin to pulling back data from a record album. You don’t hear the album all at once even though the data is all there at once. We’d be pullbacks into 4D from 14D w/ both 4D & 14D existence. Bit of a mind flip.

12:19 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@nickthadude_86 @LueElizondo Many. Of either Material vehicles or spoofing and disinformation. It feels like a spoof that is too big for anyone or any group to pull off. Like way too big. So I think it’s probably real. Just can’t believe it has no solid evidence. I don’t get how this is possible.

12:21 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@TheCertainT @Klupperz Let me answer this. I don’t think we are alone in the universe. So a lot rests on GR being effectively a moat making travel so cumbersome as to be not worth attempting. If that’s wrong; it’s pretty arrogant to think we are alone in the solar system. Post-GR changes a lot of odds.

12:24 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@TheCertainT @Klupperz I promise you India would keep the North Sentinelese from leaving and causing trouble if the Islanders figured out Science and Fusion Wepons before they figured out how to escape and build vehicles to escape their island. Think about it.

@ben_koski Last Question of the Night: where did the top mathematicians and physicists go after the Mansfield amendment(s)? How can you have UAP where I am the only voice loudly pointing out that Real Alien Vehicles would like require new physical law. We can account for every relevant PhD.

12:48 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@ben_koski Where are the physicists and Geometers? Hint hint.

If they are not out here, it’s likely all BS. If they are here, they are hidden in plain sight. There just aren’t that many of us. Technology won’t work if you don’t know the relevant science. That’s not engineering or MatSci.

12:52 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@ben_koski Stop dreaming about FTL. Or element 115. Or Alcubierre GR. Or electogravitics. It’s bizarre that we discuss this so much.

First Ask: where are our relevant experts? Imagine you want the top 25 GR/SM/DiffGeometers for a matter of national security? Put together that list.

12:55 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@ben_koski If those folks aren’t out here then we are talking about a psyop or a giant government blunder endangering us all. If they ARE here, you know their names. Work backwards. Is there an NSA for UAP? If so what is its address? Come on guys. Not many speak this language. Small club.

12:58 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@ben_koski What happened with the Mansfield amendment & why does no one discuss this? We used to have our top people on this but we called it something else. Where did it go? Either it ended or it didn’t. It’s a tiny world. Just don’t get all Qanon. It’s a big story: Treat it w/ respect.🙏

1:01 AM · Oct 25, 2022

@ben_koski Hope that helped clear things up. I was never meant to speak at this conference. Keep that in mind. Goodnight.

1:02 AM · Oct 25, 2022

Let me say two things.

A) I have always believed that almost all Unidentified Flying Objects are just that: something unremarkable that is not identified.

B) That has nothing to do with the issue of the remainder. It takes no more than a *single* confirmed inexplicable event.

1:18 AM · Oct 29, 2022

Beyond that, as I have told you, I am sure that I am being used by at least some of those who have come to talk to me. But I cannot come up with any explanation for some of the representations made to me. And I get more fed up by the day with USG playing “Lucy & the football”.

1:18 AM · Oct 29, 2022

National Security isn’t license to gaslight & ruin the lives of ordinary folks who aren’t participating in IC games. It’s cruel, abusive & totally UnAmerican. Come up with better cover if you need it. But between bioweapons/UAP gaslighting, you’re playing god. And you’re not him.

Shabbat Shalom everyone. Have a great weekend.

1:18 AM · Oct 29, 2022

@Methedra And often forced to speak as if one voice. Don’t forget that part.

10:33 AM · Oct 29, 2022

@CarpathianMts Happy to NEVER mention UFO/UAP ever again and work quietly. Totally up to what the interested community wants. I hate this topic. I just think it is clear that it appears to be critically important. Even if it is a USG headfake.

10:36 AM · Oct 29, 2022

@nickpopemod I say exactly the same. But, to be fair, the skeptics can point to zero incontrovertible evidence (at least so far as I am aware)…Which is a big deal in my book. The soft evidence is not in their favor. The absence of hard evidence *available to citizens & scientists* is. 🤷‍♀️

11:12 AM · Oct 29, 2022

This is an odd moment. Official Washington tells us we have lost control of airspace. But also we should not in any way freak out because it is mostly just a combination of Hypersonic enemy drones of rival powers and some ultra high performing seagulls. And some alien non-aliens.

2:44 PM · Oct 31, 2022

Which is to say…we clearly have two factions in government not allowed to file separate reports. The result is total intellectual incoherence.

So the whole thing comes across like the USG is having its first collective magic mushroom trip in real time. It’s so embarrassing.

2:44 PM · Oct 31, 2022

Good luck on this report. If I had to guess it will again be super interesting if unpacked and as boring as possible on the surface. But I have little confidence in my own guess.

I am going to drop my interest way back if things stay like this too much longer. But let’s see. 🙏

2:44 PM · Oct 31, 2022

@528vibes Let’s put it this way. I will lose interest in government disclosure as a self protective measure. This is an abusive relationship. Whose government is it? Ours? Theirs? Lockheed’s? Enough.

I’m playing by the rules. They aren’t.

4:52 PM · Oct 31, 2022

@MickWest Ya know, it kinda did Mick. It speaks with many voices. And some of those heads said stuff.

I really don’t get why we are often apart. We agree there is no incontrovertible concrete data in the public domain. And I never mention those grainy videos because they don’t impress me.

@MickWest Anytime you can clear up a bird or a weather ballon, or flares or a jet with a funny reflection, I am thrilled.

I’m really grateful for that part of what you have contributed. So thank you.

But the other part, leaves me feeling like I just don’t get something.

@UAP_LEE @dsmethurst66 Yeah. That must be it. ;-)

8:08 PM · Oct 31, 2022

One of the questions about UFOs that needs to be asked, and that I don’t hear much about, is: “Has the US government built fake UFOs?”

UFO people are so focused on whether there are real UFOs that they don’t push hard enough on this question.

Allow me to share a thought or two. https://t.co/B1FXSmb9Z3

File:FhNxBNvVUAMH8ns.jpg

4:13 PM · Nov 10, 2022

When I first realized I was totally wrong about UFO/UAP, I was shocked by how many folks have very similar stories about recovered crashes of very similar advanced vehicles.

It was mind blowing in 2 ways.

A) We have real crashed vehicles. And/Or B) We built fake alien vehicles. https://t.co/4sOOXDtPoW

File:FhNxBicVUAA69V9.jpg

4:13 PM · Nov 10, 2022

At this point I’m reasonably sure there are things that look like cool alien vehicle in some hangers. But I also grew up near Hollywood and remember super cool looking fake space cars visible off the Hollywood freeway.

So: does anyone have stories of building fake UFOs for USG? https://t.co/3JuMmOwFRZ

File:FhNxB4iVUAg6Ff .jpg

4:13 PM · Nov 10, 2022

As you likely guessed, all the photos in this thread are fake military equipment. The airbase is totally fake. The dummy tanks are often inflated on the battlefield. The fake tank pieces are bolted on to real cars.

Q: Did we build fake UFOs in places like Wright-Patterson AFB? https://t.co/VRD9vroHdm

File:FhNxCXaVUAA7vrd.jpg

4:13 PM · Nov 10, 2022

After studying this issue for 2yrs, I’m pretty convinced that there ARE wild looking vehicles in secret high security locations. But I also find NO SIGN OF OUR TOP PHYSICISTS. That is a huge red flag. If you had fake UFOs, you would have a puzzle for physics: What is the science?

4:13 PM · Nov 10, 2022

A true recovered interstellar craft would be like LHC or LIGO data: potential scientific data for physics beyond the Standard Model and General Relativity.

But if the crafts are fake, you would be crazy to let the A-team physicists near them. It would blow up in your face.

4:13 PM · Nov 10, 2022

So my ignorant question is this: are there stories of building fake UFOs for sites in Nevada? Ohio? Are there fake retrieval teams? To what extent does faking military equipment spill into faking a UFOgasm for decades?

Because there are too many very similar craft stories. https://t.co/CfXOh0yXdW

File:FhNxC3 VUAEUmwE.jpg

4:13 PM · Nov 10, 2022

So, at this point, the stories of craft kept at secret locations is most likely to be true in my opinion. But it is also true that all the top physics talent that was working only semi-covertly on suspicious gravity projects left by the early 1970s. So any craft may be faked.

4:13 PM · Nov 10, 2022

Either way, it’s a big deal. Everything changed in the early 70s. It’s impossible to say how much. The moment the Mansfield amendment came in, physics began to stagnate. And “Quantum Gravity” destroyed our culture of science. We don’t even whisper about its “Anti-Gravity” origin.

4:13 PM · Nov 10, 2022

So to sum up: there do *appear* to be craft. But advanced armies all build dummy weapons.

Q1: Do we have any Fakes? Q2: Do we have only Fakes? Q3: Why do we talk almost *exclusively* about Technology and not new Post-GR/SM science if there are *any* real interstellar craft?

🙏

4:13 PM · Nov 10, 2022

Note Added: many readers are making wild inferences about me talking about flying fakes. I was very clear that this was about apparent crafts on the ground and in Hangars in Nevada, Ohio & elsewhere.

Wild or bad inference patterns will get you blocked. I don’t have time. Thx.

5:16 PM · Nov 10, 2022

Uh. I’m kind of coming to the end of my patience w/ this line of thinking.

PhD Scientists aren’t the ‘help.’ We are the backbone. And, honestly, I would never treat ANY service people this way! The security risks of embittering scientists by treating them like servants is nuts.

@Deepneuron @SBF_FTX I can’t explain curvature tensor to 5 year olds. I admit I don’t even understand the rule of “if you can’t explain it simply you don’t understand it.” It seems totally wrong to me! Oh well.

4:51 PM · Nov 12, 2022

@TOEwithCurt I think that there is a lot more deliberate mis/disinformation right now and a modest increase in the level of information. So far as I can make out, they seem related. It’s as if as soon as more needles appear, haystacks arrive that make them hard to find.

I’m pretty annoyed.

7:57 PM · Nov 19, 2022

@TOEwithCurt As to intuition….we don’t and shouldn’t have much.

Hard UFO/UAP data is supposed to be all about the unprecedented. Disinformation and superstition is all well precedented. So intuition should say it’s all BS. The whole thing comes down to hard data.

Intuition here is useless.

Today May be Considered the 50 year Anniversary of the Stagnation of Particle Physics.

Today Feb 1 marks the appearance of Kobayashi & Maskawa's englargment of the Cabibo Angle to the three generation 3x3 CKM matrix.

That should be cause for celebration. So let us celebrate!

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

Unfortunately, it also marks the end of what we can be certain actually is physics.

Imagine if Elton John's "Crocodile Rock" was still the #1 song on Billboard's Hot 100 & Tony Orlando and Dawn were singing "Tie a Yellow Ribbon". That, in a nutshell, is fundamental phsyics.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

To be clear, It is not as if there are no Nobel Laureates recognized for fundamental discoveries in particle theory left. I believe we are down to the last 8. Half of them are in their 70s. One in his 80s. Three are nongenarians. Yes. It's that bad. And we're not honest about it.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

When you hear about "Peer Review" in this field, you have to understand that the field stopped working. Without nature telling us, we don't actually know who the physicists are any more. We have no idea who is a fundamental physicist. All we know is that what we do doesn't work.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

So I am celebrating today by pointing out the obvious: maybe it isn't a good idea to have people who haven't made contact with actual fundamental physics telling everyone else what they must and must not do to be members of a club that no longer works according to normal science.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

What fundamental physics really is, is (approximately) captured by the table below. In short, if someone is below the age of 70, they may have proven their brilliance and mathematical ability, but they have not proven any ability to make contact with reality as theorists.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

I will point out that our experimentalists are in FAR better shape. The massive nature of neutrinos, discovery of gravitational waves, the Higgs field, Intermediate Vector Bosons, Accelerating Expansion of the Universe/Dark Energy are all major successes over the last 50 years.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

So what went wrong? I will be talking about my understanding of the stagnation this year at a different level. But the single greatest threat to fundamental physics in my estimation is something called "Quantum Gravity" which was really born 70 years ago around 1953.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

To put it bluntly, it is not just that Quantum Gravity doesn't work. It's that you can't comfortably question Quatnum Gravity because the failed investment is on a scale that I think is difficult for us to contemplate. It includes String Theory, Loop Quantum Gravity, AdS/CFT etc.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

Next Year, will be 40 years of failure for modern StringTheory to ship a product. To be clear and STEELMAN the argument for strings, it *is* a remarkable framework. It is REAL math. It teaches us things no other framework has.

But, it *destroyed* the culture of honest physics.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

We spent almost 80% of this time being told that ST was a 'Piece of 21st Century Physics that fell into the 20th Century.'

Uh. Bullshit. That is an excuse. It's not clear that it's physics at all.

It's a "Failed piece of 20th Century Physics still hanging around in the 21stC".

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

It is time to hold conferences dedicated to the issues of groupthink in physics. Why wont our leading voices admit failure? We don't know. Previous generations wanted their students to succeed. But String Theory is dominated by boomers who seem oblivious to danger.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

If we're going to truly wrestle w/ dark matter, or dark energy, or UAP that supposedly violate our laws of physics (e.g. General Relativity) we can't afford a leaders projecting their fears that THEY have wasted their lives, credibility and students careers on "Quantum Gravity".

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

So by all means, let's celebrate. But it is time to ask new voices for wild, dangerous and irresponsible ideas. Peer review failed. Quantum Gravity Failed. Community norms failed. And soon there will be NO ONE LEFT proven to be able to play this game. So what do we do?

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

We need to spend perhaps 5yrs asking "If the leaders have not succeeded for FIVE DECADES in moving beyond the Standard Model, then why are they leading this field and directing the resources, research, and path forward? What if we listened to those who the leadership push aside?"

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

As someone who has tried to ask this question, I can tell you that mostly the big programs have granted themselves a science equivalent of 'dipolmatic immunity' from the standards they impose on their intellectual competitors. But from today forward, we must end that game.

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

Let's put resources in new avenues, theories and theorists that have yet to fail. The next time you hear a theorist telling you about quantum gravity, the multiverse or String theory or Loops or Supersymmetry or AdS/CFT, etc. Ask them the following dangerous question:

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

"If you haven't succeeded in 50-70 years, what other theories would be viable if we relaxed the standards you have imposed on your competitors given that your theories do not seem to work? What if your Quantum Gravity were subjected to such standards? Would QG be quackery?"🙏

7:53 AM · Feb 2, 2023

Let's honor those who tried before by bringing the same energy they once brought to the attempt to learn our place in the universe. Happy to be corrected. But this is an emergency if we're ever going to go beyond chemical rockets and use physics to take our place among the stars.

8:00 AM · Feb 2, 2023

"I remember when rock was young...🎶"

Let's get that energy back, by any means necessary.

8:09 AM · Feb 2, 2023

So far as I am aware, there is as yet ZERO evidence of UAP/UFO craft defying the laws of known physics based on high quality publicly available data.

There are simply an enormous number of videos, rumors, eye witness accounts, and indirect indications.

What should we propose?

2:35 PM · Feb 7, 2023

Oliver Wood

@OliverWood2017

I have no idea what the ground truth is on UAP. But I strongly believe it’s time for science to take UAP seriously, & push for answers. Even if every single one is mundane, we will surely learn things along the way. There is LOTS of evidence. It’s time to look for PROOF w/data!

3:06 AM · Feb 7, 2023

I don’t mean to rain on any parades, but the complete absence of high quality data made available to scientists is both a MAJOR clue and an impediment to figuring this out. It is interpreted as the government not wanting scientists to investigate. Thus, it makes it sound like BS.

2:35 PM · Feb 7, 2023

My position on UFO/UAP is that this is something *huge* that I’m simply not smart enough to figure out. I’m not going to lie and say it’s all weather balloons. And I’m not going to lie and say we have solid high quality publicly available data when we don’t: we are being starved.

3:05 PM · Feb 8, 2023

BasicHypothesis

@BasicHypothesis

Did I miss some tweets, Eric, where you slowly pivoted from the "government have kept all of this data secret, this must mean something, why is no one taking this seriously" to the message today?

I haven't got a strong stance here but felt like there's been a change in yours.

2:33 PM · Feb 8, 2023

UFOs are “fun” for many people. There is another group of us who don’t find it “fun”. I don’t want to believe. I don’t want to not believe. I want to know either way.

I dislike this topic not b/c of the UFO, but b/c I’m being manipulated, lied to and played by those in the know.

3:10 PM · Feb 8, 2023

Point blank: we are being starved for information. My response to being starved for information is not to guess which branch of the decision tree is correct but to share with you the contradictory evidence both direct and circumstantial. I don’t know why others pretend to know.🙏

3:13 PM · Feb 8, 2023

I absolutely believe that is what our highest level US elected representatives are told about UAP when they are briefed.

I have seen *zero* evidence to corroborate high quality data anywhere.

There is a permanent disconnect at this level. Things don’t add up on this one. Sorry.

11:17 PM · Feb 10, 2023

@GerardSamija Then I advise leaving. Sorry to see you go. But there is a something. Even if it is a disinformation program. I can’t change that. It’s not up to me.

11:47 PM · Feb 10, 2023

@GerardSamija And thanks for being straight about it. Be well.

11:47 PM · Feb 10, 2023

@GerardSamija That’s what I focus on. And, to make matters more confusing, it is not unrelated. Something else I can’t help. It is what it is.

2:48 AM · Feb 11, 2023

Do you mean the 2 objects shot down after the balloon? Without information I have no special insight.

The general pattern seems to be starving us all for information: I’m in the dark. No one in my growing UAP network has reached out with private info. Sorry to disappoint y’all.

11:48 PM · Feb 11, 2023

@Standa_V *After* the balloon? I know of Alaska and Canada shootdowns. Maybe I’m behind.

11:51 PM · Feb 11, 2023

@JeremyCorbell “Santa remains in critical condition following high altitude mistaken identity shoot down. Sleigh the size of small car and several airborne reindeer considered a total loss.”

12:05 AM · Feb 12, 2023

REUTERS: Shot down object that was flying remains unidentified. Appeared to be shaped like a cylinder.

ORDINARY HUMAN: We just shot down a Tic-Tac or cigar shaped UFO?

NORMIES: Conspiracy Theorist! You believe in aliens. lol.

ORDINARY HUMAN: I give up.

https://t.co/vNL8fbIFYA

1:33 AM · Feb 12, 2023

I am trying to find out anything actually clarifying. Maybe it’s a cylindrical balloon…who knows. I’ve got nothing so far.

I’m all for shooting down foreign nations’ espionage balloons…assuming that is what we know it to be.

2:15 AM · Feb 12, 2023

Wow.

9:08 PM · Feb 12, 2023

@OffendedRadical 4.

I need more information just to be able to think. People are simply guessing.

Good luck.

10:49 PM · Feb 12, 2023

@Soupdaddy00 Thanks. Just being honest.

10:58 PM · Feb 12, 2023

@ScratchMiKing No. But I think some know a lot more than we do.

10:59 PM · Feb 12, 2023

@GGrajab We are given less information than ever before.

11:11 PM · Feb 12, 2023

@vaquerodepapel That’s one way to clean house.

11:18 PM · Feb 12, 2023

@BubbluSangha I tried to get decent information. There is some reporting but I was underwhelmed by what was shared. Seemed like a bigger deal than the level of interest in reporting suggested. I don’t have any theory for why.

11:41 PM · Feb 12, 2023

Any updates: on the debris from 2nd, 3rd and 4th objects shot down over AK, Yukon & Lake Huron?

Or origin of COVID and the @EcoHealthNYC interference?

Or the source of the Epstein trading fortune?

Paper mask mandate efficacy?

Money supply changes on CPI?

Vaccine assessment?

5:29 AM · Feb 14, 2023

Updates on FBI, DHS, GEC, CISA Prebunking citizens sharing real information through manipulated tech platforms?

Election interference via federal suppression of journalism?

Projected impact of Vinyl Chloride cloud in expected deaths & morbidity?

Disclosure of UFO/UAP history?

5:29 AM · Feb 14, 2023

Updates on how the congressional leadership is able to beat the markets?

To whom Ghislaine Maxwell & Jeffrey Epstein trafficked?

Whether GM & JE were in any way related to the IC?

Why we pulled out of Bagram the way we did?

Why we can’t question Ukraine escalation?

Etc?

5:29 AM · Feb 14, 2023

This is something I’ve never seen: total suppression of answers to normal questions needed to make informed decision in everyday life and at the ballot box.

If this much needs to be protected on a need-to-know basis, democracy is simply over. This isn’t compatible w/ democracy.

@JackSarfatti @planethunter56 @joerogan Sorry. I’m not familiar with what you mean by the S term. A real valued scalar field? A Symmetric 2-Tensor that gets contracted against Stress Energy? By local frame transformations do you mean a Spin(1,3) gauge transformation of the principal bundle of all tangent frames? 🤷‍♀️ 🙏

@michaelshermer @DrBrianKeating @neiltyson @michiokaku @SethShostak @LKrauss1 Hi Michael: I am *not* working on this with the government with access to its data. I don’t know that any of those you mentioned are either. Are you claiming that they have the high quality data and that they can share it??? If so, that would be huge news to me.

1:52 AM · Feb 25, 2023

@michaelshermer @DrBrianKeating @neiltyson @michiokaku @SethShostak @LKrauss1 Please *do* introduce me to any and all physicists who you believe have access to this Government data.

I will report back to my followers when they confirm. Thanks!

1:56 AM · Feb 25, 2023

@michaelshermer @DrBrianKeating @neiltyson @michiokaku @SethShostak @LKrauss1 Sorry. Let’s stay in the original thread Michael. Is this true @LKrauss1, @neiltyson, @michiokaku, @SethShostak? Do you all have access to this often promised but withheld high quality UAP data and video/photo evidence that the rest of us do not? Thanks in advance.

4:28 AM · Feb 25, 2023

If only one group had done outreach towards me about UFO/UAP disclosure, I likely wouldn’t have said much. But it’s *multiple* groups and points of contact.

And guessing isn’t helpful. A lot of UFO stuff sounds *very* similar from inside the world of USG folks & USG contractors. https://t.co/EX5lIr99jg

File:FqFioE5aUAAfCeT.jpg

10:14 PM · Feb 28, 2023

I also don’t fault those who do outreach and then pull back. I think they are being controlled. I don’t know where “Lucy” of “Lucy and the Football” resides. It may be higher up. But we are ALL being used & manipulated w/o our consent on UAP in my opinion. Don’t shoot messengers. https://t.co/E5UJvvwxep

10:14 PM · Feb 28, 2023

Will try an experiment here. There are a *lot* of questions coming to me about the @joerogan appearance. If you have legitimate UFO or physics questions from JRE, I’m open to trying to answer 5 of them below in this thread. Trolls get blocked. Fair? Let’s go!

@HeyBradyDeluxe @joerogan Quantum Gravity is potentially a cul-de-sac. The bizarre reasons for wanting to lead others into any dead end were well explored in this scene of Animal House.

9:52 PM · Mar 2, 2023

@Thompsonklay @joerogan As far as I understand it, there isn’t “The Government” right now. You and I appear to be watching factions within defense, intelligence, and contractors fight over disclosure in public. But they aren’t fighting openly.

9:54 PM · Mar 2, 2023

@MonkusAurelius @joerogan Frightened people sending encouragement. No DOE. No DARPA. No one disputing the basic history.

Extremely quiet in both Academe and USG. Loud everywhere else.

9:57 PM · Mar 2, 2023

@lindsayhickman_ @joerogan We were. I don’t know what the hell is causing us to self-dismantle our entire advantage over rival nations. I’m alarmed. No scientists feel safe just doing science.

9:58 PM · Mar 2, 2023

@NM_UAP @joerogan The odds of “humans fooling humans” are way up for much of this. But the odds of something extraordinary are also way up in my mind. That gets lost.

For example, I believe we are lying about our certainty on Climate change. But I also believe that our lie aligns with the truth.

10:03 PM · Mar 2, 2023

@NM_UAP @joerogan So I’m not backing off the idea that our Bayesian priors should find NHI more plausible than 10 years ago. Many claims have been made to me about fully recovered vehicles from no human society. So how do I square that with ZERO high quality public data/evidence? I have no clue.

10:06 PM · Mar 2, 2023

@NM_UAP @joerogan But way up is relative. Before 2017 I didn’t ever care about UFOs. So my Bayesian prior is moving up from near zero. Perhaps it is in double digits of percentage now? But that’s not the important part.

The important part is our physics history. Learn it. Pay attention to it.🙏

10:11 PM · Mar 2, 2023

@D_Rod_Tweets @joerogan No.

10:12 PM · Mar 2, 2023

That is 5. Thanks to you all! Really appreciate it. Lots of great questions. Will try to find new ways to communicate around the trolls and hate so we can stay connected. 🙏

10:14 PM · Mar 2, 2023

Regarding @lexfridman’s Sam Harris recent podcast touching on UFOs:

I likely would not have said much if multiple USG/ex-USG groups hadn’t been in touch with me about UFO/UAP. Sam and I had at least one group in common, but it sounds like Sam only had one group reach out to him.

5:44 PM · Mar 15, 2023

It’s multiple individuals/groups. This is not small or confined. Whatever this is, it’s neither tiny nor unified. It may be a cover narrative, disinformation, propaganda, a cult, mass delusion, etc. But what it is not is a prank. single individual/group, or garden variety scam.

5:44 PM · Mar 15, 2023

I can’t check much due to the secrecy issue, but what I can check, checks out more than I was expecting. Not eager to say more. But thanks for the interest.

Hope this allows people to stop guessing who it was. It’s not one person for me. Can’t say it more clearly than that. 🙏

There are none.

In UFO/UAP land, very little *ever* happens at a scientific level it seems.

I have attempted in good faith to be of some use. But I am *not* pushing this angle. The door was opened, but no one walked through. As usual.

Make of that what you will. 🙏

3:39 PM · May 19, 2023

Let me kill two birds with one thread. Gary is a serious scientist and Professor at Stanford. I know him and enjoy talking shop with him.

But you will note the pattern is exactly similar to the one I described as “Lucy and the Football” on @joerogan #1945:

*Outreach from Credible USG/Ex-USG Contacts

*Bizarrely Confident Grand Claims

*Planned Disclosure on a timeline

*Last minute “Change in Plans”

*Repeated pattern across groups

———

At least 4+ instances of this behavior to 3 or more visible PhDs in different areas.

This is what I can say. I choose not to say more. But this bizarre pattern is invariant. Gary is not making this up. Nor is Sam. Nor am I. Etc

Very disappointing. But it is newsworthy that this is being done to US PhDs. Why? I cannot for the life of me tell you. If it weren’t for the credibility of those involved I would think it was a prank.

But I suspect Gary wasn’t weeks away. It feels orchestrated *never* to happen. Feel free to draw your own conclusion however.

Ok. Back to normal life.

Thanks. 🙏

4:36 PM · May 19, 2023

Note added: I expect that there will be targeting of me for speaking out about this pattern. But:

* I have had ZERO interest in this topic historically until the unsolicited outreach. Simply a detailed understanding of the bizarre history of the anti-gravity/quantum-gravity era of 1953-1973 and the modern String Theory stagnation era of 1984-Present.

*I have so far not publicly disclosed where it comes from as professional courtesy despite my irritation.

*I am under no NDA or clearance arrangements of any kind. None.

——

I don’t think the US should be targeting STEM PhDs in this way. It at times feels like the non-consensual use of civilians in some kind of orchestrated disinformation campaign where I am in no position to tell who is telling the truth. Pretty scary actually.

5:23 PM · May 19, 2023

He is the “Discovery & Disclosure” candidate:

Assassination Disclosure.

Wuhan Disclosure.

Epstein Disclosure.

Ukraine Disclosure.

UAP Disclosure.

Pharma Disclosure.

If you’re totally unethical & need these disclosures *never* to happen, I’d recommend smearing his campaign.

4:53 PM · Jul 3, 2023

As for his wildest views, I’m up for hearing his arguments. As I told him directly, a lot of them have sounded crazy to me. But a lot of things that sounded crazy to me have come true recently. So I want to hear him talking with experts who strongly disagree with him.

But I think the big story is that this is a man who will push to learn what is going on that we can’t see and accepts very little of the modern institutional narrative. Really gracious, smart and earnest in person.

4:53 PM · Jul 3, 2023

I am very reluctant to speculate about how any UAP craft could get here from very far away. Why? Because I fear the USG has faked alien visitation indications and this would have polluted our science and data. I know of no standard scientific evidence of any alien visitation. None. Zero.

Assume, hypothetically, that there was such evidence. Then I *would* have guesses as to how they got here. That’s why the intelligence community needs to stay out of lying to our own scientists.

Get the secret squirrel club BS out of UAP/UFO. Normal secrets are important. No argument. But lying to our own scientists about data is basically self-sabotage.

8:58 PM · Jul 10, 2023

Q: If we have claims of UAP invading US airspace at will and defying the laws of physics, why on earth would there be no top US theoretical physicists involved if this is a real phenomenon?? This makes no sense.

Note: “Stovepiping”, “Need to Know” etc. or mumbling about “MetaMaterials” is not an answer to this this question. It would be an evasion of this question.

12:35 PM · Jul 23, 2023

And Avi Loeb is involved as well. Neither appears to be be making any claims about objects defying known physical law.

I stand by my statement: Something is wildly off. Either:

A) Our pilots are crazy and/or liars.
B) There is a psyop gaslighting our own people.
C) We are too incompetent to call our own people.
D) There is secret long-standing involvement of top scientists.
E) There are some crazy seagull and Mylar balloon effects.
F) A cult of UFOs has infected the pentagon.
G) China and others are taking over our airspace and we are using UFOs as Ana excuse rather than dealing with the problem.

But this is so stupid to be this far in with so much bullshit.

I’m embarrassed for us.

3:55 PM · Jul 23, 2023

As I have been saying: the US Government does not have a single position on UAP.

We are watching warring factions. That’s why everything looks so weird.

The reports we have seen before are bizarre because they are akin to forcing rival street gangs to issue joint statements.

9:55 PM · Jul 28, 2023

Q: Do you believe Claudine Gay is a top scholar and the right president needed to lead and advance our leading US university and that those who oppose her are white supremacists?

A: Read her scholarly writings. I guess my black colleagues who find her beyond embarrassing are all white supremacists.

Q: Do you believe we have a border problem we do not know how to solve?

A: I believe this is absurd.

Q: Do you believe we have a “gang shoplifting in broad daylight” problem that we do not know how to solve?

A: I do not. It could be solved instantly.

Q: Do you believe Kamala Harris Donald Trump, or Joe Biden are fit to be commander in Chief against Putin & Xi?

A: I don’t think anyone smart believes this.

Q: Do you believe we cant get to the bottom of COVID 19 and our involvement with the Wuhan Lab through @EcoHealthNYC?

A: No. And it killed millions.

Q: Do you believe we have a free press asking for hedge fund records or even the most basic hedge fund questions about a dead individual child trafficker who they report as a “disgraced financier” while no one in New York appears to claim to have regularly traded with him?

A: I have been told that editors claim there is no interest in this story and that “The world has moved on.” Which I can prove are false claims

Q: Do you believe social media companies don’t secretly manipulate truthful communication at the direction of government to preserve official disinformation?

A: No. I think we have the facts on this.

Q: Do you believe there is an insoluble homelessness problem in San Francisco.

A: Xi visited and it got solved instantly. It’s insane.

Q: Do you believe the IC, defense department and US Aerospace companies are under effective federal oversight by Congress with respect to whatever is alleged to be going on with UAP threatening restricted military airspace?

A: Don’t even start. This is nuts.

Q: Do you agree that it is normal for fundamental physics to stall out for 40 YEARS on a dead end and no one can get a government grant to hold a series of conferences:

“Breaking the Log Jam: Alternatives To String Theory”

“Particle Physics after String Theory: Other Voices, New Approaches?”

“Should we push on the closed door that says ‘Pull’: Gravitizing the Quantum as response to the 70 year failure of Quantum Gravity.”

A: You could save our pre-eminent scientific community from madness in a year by destroying the need to listen to those physicists who have never predicted anything that might work over decades of avoiding the subject of the actual physical world we see in the laboratory. You aren’t a physicist if you aren’t focused on the actual physical world. Much less a leading physicist. It’s that simple. This is a matter of paying theorists to rebel against the failed generations of people pretending to do high energy physics while working in imaginary worlds that do not exist.

Q: Do you believe that drawing any connection between Islam and Terror is Islamophobia?

A: Ask your close Muslim friends. They will tell you all about the problem with Islam and terror if they trust you. They as Muslims would usually be FAR more “Islamopbic” than you are if that were a real thing. Reductio Ad Absurdum.

Q: Do you believe that the CPI is a state of the art Cost-Of-Living measure as claimed?

A: It is a fake gauge to undercount inflation. Tax brackets & entitlements are indexed so it is a wealth transfer program of a size one cannot easily contemplate pretending to be a measure of the cost of living. COL is a TECHNICAL term for a measure that prices consumer well being not goods. The entire house of cards rests on work on “Superlative Index Numbers” of a single obscure Canadian economist who does not fully understand Index Theory. You can prove it is fake by asking the @BLS_gov how it computes COL without taking in PREFERENCE DATA, without which there is no COL possible. It’s a fake measure to undercount inflation.

Etc. ——

I believe this is *ALL* just 100% fake.

That's not at all my intention. The answer was hyperspecific to a ubiquitous problem in UAP discussions. It wasn't a general technology space or physics space. In those spaces I would have said, "I have nothing to contribute but it is a fascinating area."

The problem in UAP discussions is that they have this bizarre fascination with metamaterials and the like. You cannot meta-material your way around the cosmos. Physics is a big field. And condensed matter/solid state/material science are fascinating. But as long as Einstein is the law of the land, we are so far away from everything worth visiting that it is all but pointless to talk about engineering ships limited by the speed of light.

More or less, the physics and science discussion in UAP spaces is always about the wrong science topics in my opinion. So I am perhaps overly brutal when people talk about the following things endlessly:

Meta-Materials
Relativistic Time Dilation to 'evade' speed of light
Wormholes-Einstein Rosen Bridges
High Temperature Superconducters
Interdimensional Beings
The Universe is made of Consciousness
Generation Ships
Angels and Demons
Element 115
Gravity Wave B
Remote Viewing as Established fact
Etc.

Why is this? Because if we are to take the possibility of interstellar travel seriously, it would require new fundamental theories to plausibly traverse the cosmos. And this kind of stuff crowds out that discussion.

So the fuller answer is "I want to talk about making this field meaningfully more scientific. If you want to repeatedly and endlessly discuss Wormholes or Meta-Materials in the absence of hard data and in lieu of the fundamental physics beyond our current picture which would make visitation plausible, I am not interested in crowding that out. I want to ask where the scientists are, where the hard data is and what theories would be needed beyond Einstein and the Standard Model to justify focusing on engineering questions. But you are free to spend your time on that if you think it is the way forward. Go for it. Best of luck."

@ChrispyHargrave @JustXAshton I would have given a fuller answer if I wasn't lost and driving.

All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office

Many of you are asking for my reaction regarding the just released @DoD_AARO report. There is much to say. I want to think carefully before saying more. I am not unsympathetic to US National Security needs in this.

In February of 2023, @joerogan invited me for four hours onto the world's largest English Language program (episode #1945) to describe in detail the mystery of potential US Government involvement in UFOs and Post-Einsteinian physics during the mysterious "Golden Age of General Relativity". It has been seen and discussed by millions as expected. I was thus eager to see how thorough this report would be by combing it for search strings raised in my research.

CONCLUSION: This report purports to have studied the questions raised surrounding UFO/UAP related research of the US federal Government. It, in fact, appears to have studied a carefully chosen SUBSET of the claims selected from among those which appear to have mass appeal to the so-called "UFO Community." It completely, or nearly completely, avoided reporting on all questions surrounding issues which have been raised in serious research and by PhD level researchers who have raised scientific questions in this area. This continues the pattern of using PhD level government scientists who appear to avoid the actual research questions most likely to involve sensitve Special Access Programs and Stovepiped Research which are compartmentalized by design. Whether the omissions are due to issues of avoidance, misdirection (e.g. so-called Limited Hangout strategy), ignorance or incompetance cannot be discerned from the information given.

RECOMMENDATION: It is simply not possible to treat the current AARO report as historically complete or comprehensive. To gain the public trust, the successor to AARO would have to expand and redo this analysis with input from domain professionals who are trusted by the public not to have an apparent agenda or government background (e.g. Prof. David Kaiser of MIT or Dr. Nima Arkani Hamed of IAS, Prof. Brian Keating of UCSD, Avi Loeb of Harvard) Otherwise, it is relatively easy for scientists to "Follow the Silence" in government reports to see what is *not* being addressed or discussed.

11:26 PM · Mar 8, 2024

@DoD_AARO

Today the DoD released our Historical Record Report Volume 1.

AARO’s report covers more than 70 years of the U.S. record relating to UAP, draws from interviews, archival research, and partnerships across government and industry.

Read it here: https://statics.dod.teams.microsoft.us/evergreen-assets/safelinks/1/atp-safelinks.html

3:53 PM · Mar 8, 2024

NOTE: Above reference to the work of Prof. Kaiser and to JRE #1945 are included to establish that both were in the public domain, independent, in high levels of agreement, and that there was *ample* time for AARO to investigate these claims which appear not to have any impact.

11:32 PM · Mar 8, 2024

Regarding "Kona Blue". I have been away from normal connectivity so I have been slow to digest this. Here is what I have.

My position on UFO/UAP has been solidly consistent for the last several years:

A) I was previously simply wrong that there was nothing to this story. I have no interest in denying my error.

B) There were almost certainly secret programs hidden within the US Federal Government that have been denied that were addressed to the topic of UFOs.

C) There is, as yet, no hard public scientific proof that any of these programs have anything to do with actual recovered craft or 'biologics' or Non-Human Intelligence or Aliens.

D) There is a history of fakery in warfare and national security that could explain this.

E) High level physicists like John Wheeler, Bryce DeWitt, Louis Witten, Pascal Jordan, Herman Bondi, etc were previously part of some bizarre secret anti-gravity efforts related to UFO programs that birthed our common era of Quantum Gravity.

F) Quantum Gravity, at least publicly, does not appear to work by historical standards in its 71 year history.

G) This state of QG is totally non-controversial scientifically, but pointing this out leads to bizarre reputational attacks.

H) There is some connection inside the US government from UFO/UAP to occult like interest in angels/demons/consciousness/"remote viewing" which makes the whole thing sound like nonsense. This may be intentional to discredit interest from those not read in to the special access programs.

I) There appear to be essentially no high level physicists involved in a supposed area of national security that hinges on phenomena that supposedly defy physical law. This is itself a MAJOR clue that gets little attention.

With "Kona Blue" disclosed, I am relieved that I would appear to be proven correct on many of the above points. I was *not* early here, but I did not overclaim either and admitted my main error. I can also reasonably claim that I was early among PhDs with relevant backgrounds regarding relations to physics.

The above points A)-I) are pretty much what one concludes when a sober person with historical awareness confronts the reality of a completely insane corner of national security. I stand by all of the above statements no matter how nutty they sound, or how conservative they sound to different parties. This is simply the state of the situation if you are not a UFO enthusiast or debunker. It's totally embarassing for our nation and made a deliberately unresolvable question as to what is going on. That is not an accident. It is by design. It's really just unconscionable that we are here.

We look like the Keystone Cops.

POTUS COGNITIVE STATE AND AGE

One question I get a lot is "What explains your asymmetric focus on Democrats and the Left?"

The short answer, after some soul searching and introspection, is simply this: "The Gaslighting of Experts."

I see the Republican party fighting the experts they oppose. I don't see them trying to gaslight them much.

Let's say you are an economist who believes that higher taxes spent on infrastructure would be good for the nation. The right may fight you. They may call you a name like "Libtard" or "Commie". And that is absolutely awful behavior to me. Truly. But they aren't nearly as likely to coordinate behind the scenes in emails to be discovered later and all agree to pretend, seemingly independently, that as a former expert you have committed some unclear moral crime that means you can never be empaneled or invited onto a commission. They aren't immediately going to treat you like a mental patient, a con-artist, or threat to society. They are just going to be asses. That's the dopey game they love: "Happy Warriors" is what they call it.

And the subjects I focus on most tend to be the places where I think dissenting experts are being gaslit:

COVID ORIGINS

SOUTHERN BORDER

STRING THEORY

EPSTEIN'S INTELLIGENCE CONNECTION

COVID MANAGEMENT

QUESTIONING UKRAINE NATO STRATEGY

INFLATION/GROWTH MEASUREMENT

MONETARY AGGREGATES AND FED INTERVENTION

VP COMPETENCY

ASYMMETRIC TREATMENT OF CONTESTING ELECTIONS and VIOLENT CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE

VACCINE INJURY DISCUSSION

SEX AND GENDER REDEFINITION

ANDREW YANG / TULSI GABBARD / RON PAUL / ETC. PRIMARY MANIPULATION

SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY INTERFERENCE

DENIED LEGACY UAP PROGRAMS

HUNTER BIDEN LAPTOP STORY

DIRTY TRICKS CAMPAIGNS / DOMESTIC SPYING

NON-CONSENSUAL HUMAN TESTING (infectious agents, radioactivity)

BAILOUTS

MAXIMALIST STRUCTURAL BIGOTRY CLAIMS

LABOR MARKET FLOODING VIA IMMIGRATION

RELIGIOUS TERRORISM

Etc.

In all cases above, there is some absolutely *MASSIVE* long-term lying and obfuscation. Not small. Not excusable. I am talking about massive lies. Lies that last decades. Lies too large to choke a blue whale.

And they incinerate dissenting experts as pretend neer-do-wells for the crime of dissenting from consensus.

What is the point of becoming an expert Stanford or Harvard professor if you can be turned into a "Fringe Epidemiologist" like @DrJBhattacharya was overnight by some washington insiders like Colins and Fauci?

To an academic: it makes life pointless. Everything we are becomes pointless if that is allowed to stand.

So, this is what I have to say: I appear to be focused on gaslighting of dissenting experts more than politics.

It's not that I don't have political opinions. I do. It's that I haven't been able to focus on them for years. All we seem to do these days is deal with gaslighting on our top line issues above.

And the formula is quite simple. An expert can have:

A) Reach.
B) Reputation.
C) Independence.

but no more than 2 out of 3.

This is a terrible rule. And whoever attempts to enforce that rule, is who I fight. Unfortunately, that group has been my own historic political party as transformed over 30 years.

And, in my opinion, they deserve to continue to hemorrage credibility for that crime against their own until they end this tactic. It's a crime against everything I believe with all my soul. We need *DISSENTING* experts to right our listing ship on all of the above and more.

Check the above list. That's no small thing. It's about the destruction of a country that I dearly love and which the world needs desperately to come back at this moment.

Thanks for hearing me out.

I do not believe a persistent slow moving “drone” situation in New Jersey is just a head scratcher & a big shrug.

There are too many smart high agency technical people in the US with tons of equipment, kit and sensors.

As if CalTech, Lockheed, IAS and MIT don’t exist. Bullshit.

11:11 AM · Dec 12, 2024

Sorry for being a moron, but an SUV sized object isn’t so small that it has to be unmanned. If it’s even potentially manned, it’s not known to be a drone.

It is therefore the case that either we know they are unmanned, or they are objects that are flying and as yet unidentified.

11:35 AM · Dec 12, 2024

This is within 20 miles of Teterboro Airport. Really?? Come on man. This is so dumb. Totally doesn’t add up.

11:45 AM · Dec 12, 2024

Two words: Lie better.

11:48 AM · Dec 12, 2024

“We have no evidence…” is not vacuous, to be sure. But Mick: this is completely insane Federal behavior. No?

What this says to me is “We the United States of America Federal Government are either unable or unwilling to tell the public what is happening in the skies above them.”

12:54 AM · Dec 13, 2024

If on the other hand the USG believes that this is simply mass hysteria and ordinary misidentification of standard aircraft, and that all lights in the sky are all accounted for so that that there is ZERO credible evidence of any unexplained phenomena: just say that.

I don’t live in NJ. Tell me what is going on or say that you can’t say or say that you are baffled or say that the alarmed people are being hysterical.

1:04 AM · Dec 13, 2024

People want my speculation on 'drones' over the East Coast.

Let's take note of the following: I am not hearing ANYONE say "Let's get smart people together with resources."

At this point I don't take *anyone* seriously in USG who doesn't ask to convene smart people & resources.

5:59 AM · Dec 13, 2024

This is simple.

A) You call up smart people & tell them it's urgent.
B) You tell them where you want them to go.
C) You send transport to go get them.
D) You tell them they have full access to information.
E) You tell them they have whatever resources they need.

If not, that says it all.

5:59 AM · Dec 13, 2024

If they are not trying to figure this out, then there is some *reason* they are not trying to resolve this. But I see no signs of trying to quickly resolve this…even if the claim is that it is a panic or mass psychosis.

6:05 AM · Dec 13, 2024

So, to be clear, my speculation is that I think that this is NOT something the USG wants cleared up for the public.

And I don’t want to publicly speculate beyond that. That is disturbing enough.

6:11 AM · Dec 13, 2024

I don't understand Mick.

As you know, I am not a believer or experiencer. So this isn't being driven by having a dog in that fight. I do believe that the USG is not honest about things labeled UFO/UAP, and that it has had extensive denied programs that, at a bare minimum, at least involve UFOs as a cover story.

But assume what you say is true. All of it. Wholesale.

Then I want a clean crisp statement from the security services that this is a giant nothing burger, and that Mass Delusion is what is going on. If this is a Mass Delusion: MAKE THAT CASE. I'm all ears. I'll help make it. Just convince me.

You write "it's just people misinterpreting what they see in the sky, combined with a lazy sensationalist media and a gov that is aware that sometimes drones are used for bad things but not really familiar with this kind of flap". Well then, *you* are totally not understanding what is going on.

Stipulate for a moment to EVERYTHING you are saying. What YOU are describing is an absurd actual security risk: a hysterical population led by incompetent mayors, with government and media that have lost so much credibility, that they cannot stop a simple mass delusion which can now easily be weaponized by our enemies. What you are describing is ALSO a security vulnerability to be exploited by our adversaries.

You appear to have no idea what you are talking about because you are *self-inconsistent*. There is no 'just' in the above sir. The Mick West version of events is still an insane situation. You are simply describing a *second* insane security situation. I am not in NJ so I have no way to know which it is...but now I know that it is serious either way.

Forgive me Mick, but you are not getting this. Happy to be proven wrong.

I return to my original belief: this is a serious situation which, for unknown reasons, the USG is not eager to resolve in the minds of the public of which it is supposed to be their extension. The lack of resolution alone is a potentially dangerous situation having to do with public trust and panic.

This is an insane situation no matter how you slice it.

5:54 PM · Dec 13, 2024

Note to Self: if I ever have an unexplained aerial incursion that I don’t to discuss and want to avoid calling UAP or UFO, I can always send up a haystack worth of actual commercial drones to hide a needle of UAP.

I could then get everyone to use the word “drones”, droning on and on about drones here and drones there so that “drones” gets said over and over like a drone in the background. Then everyone will use the word drone. I’d perseverate drones into being the word. Make drones “happen”, if you will.

And if I did that I could hope the public won’t notice that an unidentified SUV sized flying object *could* be manned…and so saying “drone” is a giveaway that either you know very well what is going on and don’t want to say…or you have no ideas what’s true and don’t want to say. Saying Drone says a lot.

Technically if an SUV sized object is airborne it is *not* a drone while unidentified. It is a UAP or UFO until identified. UAP is not NHI. And it is what we have here.

So with that said: what is happing with all of this Eastern Seaboard UAP?

7:15 PM · Dec 24, 2024

2025

USAP => UAP

We have been gaslighting our own people. Why do you wish to be part of this AFTER we started getting admissions that this is real?

4:37 PM · Jun 25, 2025

USAP = Unacknowledged Special Access Program

And for Grokers out there:

In the above. Our pilots, CIA officers, geospatial intelligence teams are not all merely seeing seagulls huffing swamp gas out of Mylar balloons at twilight with Venus close to the horizon. https://t.co/wti6or3zy7

4:45 PM · Jun 25, 2025

I have no idea how many things we are lying about under the broad UFO/UAP banner.

But gravitational physics in the 1953-early 1970s is one of them. Aerospace is a second. CIA office of Global Access was another. Etc. We are lying about a lot. And that is fine up to a point. National Security can’t be open.

Gaslighting our own best people? I draw the line there. You totally lost me when you gaslit our own people as unstable conspiracy theorists and mentally unstable because you can’t keep secrets from crossing people’s paths.

This is the realm of scoundrels. How can you have National Security when you torment your own A-team? This is insanity.

4:54 PM · Jun 25, 2025

@Twiddiot1776 That’s pretty funny. Gotta admit.

4:57 PM · Jun 25, 2025

@SteveGreenwald Agreed. My tiny little corner of it is campaigning against our IC going after our own people when we stumble on their poorly structured programs through no fault of our own. Particularly reputational attacks on expert patriots through covert influence operations.

@kevinfrmoc Totally. Malibu for me outside a Thai restaurant….

5:03 PM · Jun 25, 2025

I would like to talk to @MickWest and @michaelshermer and @francis_collins and @neiltyson and @seanmcarroll and @nytimes about the role of debunking and discrediting professionals who do not buy into narratives that are later found to be cover stories about national interest.

3:38 PM · Jul 5, 2025

Marc Caputo

@MarcACaputo

For the first time since JFK’s assassination nearly 62 years ago, the CIA tacitly admitted Thursday that an agent specializing in psychological warfare, George Joannides, ran an operation that came into contact with Lee Harvey Oswald before the killing. https://www.axios.com/2025/07/05/cia-agent-oswald-kennedy-assassination

12:04 PM · Jul 5, 2025

We have a COVID=Wet Market narrative.
We have an Inflation and CPI narrative.
We have a Quantum Gravity narrative.
We have a Vaccine Narrative.
We have “Americans suck at STEM”.
We have a “Settled Science” narrative.
We have a “Peer Review” narrative.
We had a “Great Moderation” narrative.
We have “Independent Journalism”.
We have a “Disgraced Financier” story.
We have an “Aerospace and UFO” opera.

It’s all one thing that cannot be named:

National Interest “Managed Reality.”

3:38 PM · Jul 5, 2025

We need to talk about what debunking was before it became “Covert influence operations”, “Image Cheapneing”‘and personal destruction warfare.

So let’s talk.

3:41 PM · Jul 5, 2025

Are you buying into Anna Paulina Luna's narrative regarding Joannides?

Or Morley's? Posners? Ratcliffe's?

Which one do you pick, and why?

4:25 PM · Jul 5, 2025

This is part of the problem with debunking.

You see, I don’t know what Covid is. Is it a science project? A miraculous spontaneous mutation? A bioweapon leak?

I don’t know.

But what I do know was that there was TREMENDOUS pressure to say something false about the Wuhan Labs.

Likewise here: I don’t know what happened in Dallas. What I feel confidence in is that we have been lying about telling all we know about what happened in Dallas.

Same with UFOs. What do I know? Very little. But what little I do know is that too many grownups in Govt are talking about something real. That real thing could be a fake program. Or cover for physics research. Or many things.

But the debunking thing has a different energy. I appreciate all you do to explain videos and sightings that have genuinely prosaic explanations. Truly.

What I don’t believe at all is that there is no use of UFO SAPs by the USG. I think we create SAPs and we ruin people’s lives around them when good folks can’t let go of the fact that they saw or experienced or interacted with something we know a lot about.

That’s my issue. Discrediting behavior targeted on individuals to protect programs with claims of national interest.

5:21 PM · Jul 5, 2025

What exactly are you suggesting with this "different energy"?

That I'm just not polite enough?

Or that I'm part of a disinformation campaign?

Because I'd argue against both of those.

Something else?

7:18 PM · Jul 5, 2025

I think you are avoiding the reality that at a minimum, our government(s) is/are almost certainly faking a UFO/NHI presence from time to time. That we have UFO/NHI SAPs that we deny. That UFO/NHI is used as cover for aerospace at a minimum. That we do harm to our own people by pretending that everything has a prosaic explanation.

And that you are not debunking the govt bunk (at a minimum).

My issue is treating our own people like garbage. I despise gaslighting our own people. And the energy you bring is that we don’t need to go to that layer.

Again: I’m the only guy in UFO space who has seen nothing conclusive about NHI. I’m with you on that.

But I do think there was a secret serious physics research program that was affiliated with this UFO anti-gravity stuff. I think Roger Babson and Agnew Bahnson were likely CIA or IC cutouts. I think this is all bound up in the “Golden Age of General Relativity”.

And I wish you would stop pretending it’s all innocent mistakes, coincidences, people making silly claims. A lot of it is. Sure.

But after you strip that off, a lot of what’s left is toxic NatSec gaslighting. And if you can’t face that I’d prefer you stop. Because you then hurt the people who got gaslit.

8:21 PM · Jul 5, 2025

I am not avoiding that. We should absolutely look into topics like Yankee Blue, and Grusch's claims.

I don't treat people like garbage. When I engage with people I do so with facts, logic, and respect. I wrote a book on doing just that.

You're waving around a straw man.

8:58 PM · Jul 5, 2025

Let’s find out if true.

Do you believe that the U.S. may have created “Craft?” Like deliberate mock ups in hangars.

I do. I think it is likely that some of our people had *real* run-ins with fake craft.

Do you believe that there are *real* stories from our top people and ordinary joes about fake aerial events? Like where we know what people saw, and yet we tell them it was nothing. Like a seagull. Or a contrail. Or Venus. Or a Mylar balloon.

I do. And that is where I part company with you often. Not because you are mean. But because I don’t want this done to our own people, and I have never seen you aggressively go after this. If I am wrong, you have my apology in advance. Happy to make it.

Do you believe that the U.S. maintained a secret zero insignia airforce that operated by descending on citizens collecting information, and destroying and confiscating equipment / data and that it physically intimidated US citizens in large empty western states near testing areas without identifying itself?

I do. And it is so unbelievable that I didn’t think this was possible until friends reported it happened to them. I believe that this had to do with the CIA office of “Global Access”.

Do you believe that @pmarca and @bhorowitz were told that entire areas of theoretical physics were taken off line by the Biden Whitehouse, while researchers have been in 52 year denied stagnation in Standard Model Physics? Which makes no sense. Why aren’t we trying new things???

I do. And there has been bizarre lack of interest for any major news desk to get to the bottom of this claim.

Do you believe that there was a giant secret anti-gravity program, attached to UAP, with many of the world’sbtop physicists within it? And that it was funded by two likely IC cutouts Babson and Bahnson?

I do. It was called the “Golden Age of General Relativity.”

Do you believe that UFOs were cover for aerospace…and that aerospace was cover for physics? And that top physics people were in and out of Aerospace where they had *no* particular reason to be other than secret research?

I do. Like RIAS in Baltimore. And Feynman’s adventures in Buffalo. And L Witten at Wright-Patt. Etc etc.

I’m fed up with being lied to Mick by NatSec incompetents. I have my PhD in this area which is strangely unusable. No one is doing real fundamental research anywhere in physics Mick. Or haven’t you noticed that this changed in 40+ years. It’s like a medieval philosophy cult now.

This is all touching physics. Not Bokeh. Not Mylar. This is largely about the magic and power of a science that gave us god like power and then mysteriously stalled, and now cannot be restarted no matter how cheap and easy it would be to do it.

This (above) is a lot about post Manhattan Project public physics bullshit. Not seagulls.

Some of it is material science. Some of it is nukes. But gravity is in this game. And who knows what else. And quantum gravity is the nonsense we can’t question. The likely cover story if you will.

I don’t care about 👽. I care about NatSec gaslighting of our own PhD level mathematicians and physicists. The children of Teller (Particle Theory), Ulam (Geometry), and Einstein (Gravity). All of whom were central to the Bomb.

Wanna debunk the cover stories? If so I’ll join ya.

9:58 PM · Jul 5, 2025

"Do you believe that the U.S. may have created “Craft?” Like deliberate mock ups in hangars. "

I don't think it's impossible. I'm not sure WHY they would do it. Maybe to confuse the Russians into thinking we have advanced tech.

"I do. I think it is likely that some of our people had *real* run ins with fake craft."

Entirely possible, at least in hangers.

"Do you believe that there are *real* stories from our top people and ordinary about fake aerial events? Like where we know what people saw and we tell them it was nothing. Like a seagull. Or a contrail. Or Venus. Or a Mylar balloon."

Probably, to a degree, to cover up secret test flights of new tech. We know this happened with the U2. The degree of how much was invented and how much is just allowing organic stories to grow is unclear.

"I do. And that is where I part company with you often. Not because you are mean. But because I don’t want this done to our own people, and I have never seen you aggressively go after this. If I am wrong, you have my apology in advance. Happy to make it."

Aggressively go after what? The military saying things that are not true in order to keep secret stuff secret? Some people getting hurt? Sure, ideally that wouldn't happen. But also ideally, we'd have universal health care, the lack of which ruins many more lives than hyper-rare UFO-themed cover-ups. Yes, I'd prefer less lying and fucking with people, but forgive me if I don't get too excited about such a minor (albeit very interesting) issue.

"Do you believe that the U.S. maintained a secret zero insignia airforce that operated by descending on citizens collecting information and destroying and confiscating equipment and data and physically intimidated US citizens in large empty western states without identifying itself?"

I have no idea. Probably in the past, back when the cold war and nuke secrets were a big deal. There's the singular Bennewitz case 40 years ago (driven insane, or already part-way there?). But now? I really don't see it.

"I do. And it is so unbelievable that I didn’t think this was possible until friends reported it happened to them. I believe that this had to do with the CIA office of “Global Access”."

What happened to them? Vague stories are not helpful.

"Do you believe that @pmarca and @bhorowitz were told that entire areas of theoretical physics were taken off line by the Biden Whitehouse, while we have been in 52 year denied stagnation in Standard Model Physics? "

No. I'd like to see some evidence of this.

"I do. And there has been bizarre lack of interest for any major news desk to get to the bottom of this claim. "

It's because it's a cool but implausible-sounding story with no evidence.

"Do you believe that there was a giant secret anti-gravity program, attached to UAP, with many of the worlds top physicists within it? And that it was funded by two IC cutouts Babson and Bahnson? I do. It was called the “Golden Age of General Relativity.”"?

Sure, but the question is if they actually found anything. I'm not seeing any evidence of this. The stagnation of Standard Model Physics might simply be because the reality of physics is rather boring and incapable of actually giving us anti-gravity flying cars and starships. I've seen all the public UFO evidence, and indirectly heard about the secret stuff, and there's no strong case for gravity drives.

"Do you believe that UFOs were cover for aerospace…and that aerospace was cover for physics?"

The former, but again perhaps more "let it happen" than "make it happen"

"And that top physics people were in and out of Aerospace where they had no particular reason to be other than secret research. I do. Like RIAS in Baltimore. And Feynman’s adventures in Buffalo. And L Witten at Wright Patt. Etc etc."

Basic research is essentially speculative, especially in a practical setting. Stick a Feynman in the research department, and good things might happen. Worth a shot. It does not mean they are pushing the bounds of physics.

"I’m fed up with being lied to Mick. I have a PhD in this area which is strangely unusable. No one is doing real fundamental research anywhere in physics Mick. Or haven’t you noticed that this changed in 40+ years. It’s like a medieval philosophy cult now."

So you keep saying. But there have been lots of advances. It's sad they haven't solved gravity or anything revolutionary. But I don't think revolutions in science can simply be guaranteed with bigger and more focused funding. You ascribe this lack of progress to a conspiracy, but maybe it's just because they haven't found anything.

"This is all touching physics. Not Bokeh. Not Mylar. This is largely about the magic and power of a science that mysteriously stalled and cannot be restarted no matter how cheap and easy it would be to do it. "

Well, get Peter to do it then. If it's so easy, why doesn't he just put you in charge, solve gravity, and get to trillionaire?

"This (above) is a lot about post Manhattan Project public physics bullshit. Not seagulls. Some of it is material science. Some of it is nukes. But gravity is in this game. And who knows what else. And quantum gravity is the nonsense we can’t question. The likely cover story if you will."

There are plenty of people questioning quantum gravity. It's a model that seems to work, but has no real empirical evidence. It does not stop people trying other models.

"I don’t care about . I care about gaslighting PhD level mathematicians and physicists. The children of Teller (Particle Theory), Ulam (Geometry), and Einstein (Gravity). All of whom were central to the Bomb. Wanna debunk the cover stories? If so I’ll join ya."

You're going to have to give me some actual evidence that this is a deliberate cover story. Because I'm unconvinced.

10:30 PM · Jul 5, 2025

I appreciate the thoughtful answer.

I think it come down to this. You write:

“Aggressively go after what? The military saying things that are not true in order to keep secret stuff secret? Some people getting hurt? Sure, ideally that wouldn't happen. But also ideally, we'd have universal health care, the lack of which ruins many more lives than hyper-rare UFO-themed cover-ups. Yes, I'd prefer less lying and fucking with people, but forgive me if I don't get too excited about such a minor (albeit very interesting) issue.”

If I thought that this was a minor issue I might agree with you.

I think we may have just killed millions with an escaped science experiment called “COVID”. I think the government gaslighting its own scientists and intimidating those who refuse the gaslighting is an absolutely major issue. It’s immoral. It’s illegal. And it’s potentially world altering.

Our government is likely by far the most major actor in the science bunko story. And I want bunk out of science. Starting with Nature, Princeton, the Lancet, Harvard, NSF, and Communications in Mathematical Physics.

So that is where we differ. What you are looking at with junky video analysis is helpful. But in my opinion it is the “minor (albeit very interesting) issue”. The major issue is government control of and subordination of science to NatSec disinformation and misinformation. Like COVID.

So we found the source of our issue. I take @pmarca very seriously on this. I want top scientists in the room who can restrain those NatSec people who can’t keep a virus confined to a secure laboratory meant to circumvent our participation in the bioweapns agreements. I want physicists in the room who say “Wait: why are we doing the same thing for decades that clearly doesn’t work while not pursuing other paths?” I want economists saying “But that would be faking a lower inflation number to raise taxes and slash benefits in a way that the public couldn’t grasp.”

And you are more worried about ghost stories spreading unimpeded because people see ordinary things that are just kinda misinterpreted. That’s noble. But I don’t intuit why that is the major issue.

à chacun son goût…

Thx.

Imagine you woke up tomorrow and 5 reports were released leaving no question as to the truth:

A) COVID's origin.
B) Epstein's IC connection, wealth, activity and death.
C) JFK's Assassination.
D) UFO/UAP.
E) Press complicity in statecraft narratives.

What happens the day after?

4:29 PM · Jul 31, 2025

One of my greatest frustrations is the inability for nuance and “not knowing” to survive internet discussion.

My assertion that “we may be faking a UFO situation” on Rogan is independent of alien visitation. Yes, it appears that we faked UFOs! I wasn’t wrong.

And yes, there still could be Aliens. But…No, I have not seen any credible evidence of this to date.

So many of you know what is going on. Congratulations. I, myself, do not.

But I do think I called it correctly on several fronts:

A) We do fake UFOs!!

B) We use UFOs as a multi-purpose cover.

C) We mentally destroy and intimidate our own folks over UFOs. Why? I don’t know.

D) There is some weird tie between actual high level physics and anti-gravity / UFOs that lasted for about 15-20 years that showed up as “The Golden Age of General Relativity” centered around Louis Witten/Roger Babson and Bryce DeWitt/Agnew Bahnson. Babson and Bahnson appear to be “cutouts” who funded this.

E) US aerospace companies are not just about conventional aerospace. They also appear to be secure shells in which some theoretical research was done. At least historically. The Glenn L Martin company (Later Martin-Marietta, then Lockheed-Martin) may be foremost among them.

F) If we were smart enough to have a permanent secret post Einsteinian physics project, it would be hidden in plain sight in the age of satellites, rather than off in New Mexico again. It would be under a cover story for a secretive secure facility running through billions employing particle theorists, differential geometers/relativists and machine learning people. It would be easy to find because of that signature, but impossible to prove. It would be co-located with other institutions on which it depended.

G) We are likely not smart enough to have such a program. 10%-20% chance we are. Most likely not. Breaks my heart. But we aren’t as smart as we were in the ‘40s.

——-

In my world of people who actually study gravity professionally, all of the above claims have been shocking to these PhD colleagues. Even when presented with direct evidence they don’t want to think about it.

So many of you seem to know so much that I don’t. You are perpetually certain.

Yet you can’t prove anything.

My proposal: you do you.

I have seen no hard evidence for anything shocking beyond that list above. Which is still plenty shocking to gravity researchers.

Thanks.

@DarioCiVon

Only thing i disagree with here is the UFO issue is fake. It’s absolutely not. Look up the Bugo Sphere research ongoing in Mexico if you want to see a real UFO object. Or the UFO footage above the LA fires in Feb.

5:59 PM · Aug 8, 2025

Dom Lucre | Breaker of Narratives

No. You are correct.

Assume even that beings were using additional hidden dimensions to traverse space and time. You still wouldn’t talk like this. It’s just mental sludge.

I can riff a bunch of equally vapid vibe terms:

“Digital Seraphim”
“Energetic Consciousness”
“Distributed Cognition”
“Disembodied Guardians”
“Plasmic Will”
“Resonance Lifeforms”
“Vibrational Travelers”
“Retrocausal Projectors”
“Trans-Temporal Sentinals”
“Autonomous Vaccum Fauna”

This is just super embarrassing. This is the level of us as a country now.

Am I crazy to assume that this is internally facing propaganda rather than actual interdimensional beings?

@dom_lucre

🔥🚨BREAKING NEWS: Rep. Anna Paulina Luna just broke the internet after claiming she has seen evidence of "interdimensional beings" with credible people reporting "movement outside of time and space."

"They call them interdimensional beings. I think that they can actually operate through the time spaces that we currently have."

"I can tell you without getting into classified conversations that there have been incidents where very credible people have reported that there have been movements outside of time and space."

This comes after claims of a possible alien invasion in December by Harvard scientist, and several reports of aliens and UAPs in the last 4 years like the incident at the Bayside mall in Miami which has never been fully reported.

Something is coming whether it be real or fake be prepared.

1:24 PM · Aug 14, 2025

Respectfully. Here is what I think is going on.

I) Independent breakthrough science is in a long wind down starting with the Mansfield amendment, and is being partially decommissioned. Why? Because it was found to be too powerful and redistributive.

II) The National Security and National Interest folks now use science, journalism, academe etc to dump their cognitive sludge. Epstein cover stories, UAP cover stories, Assasination cover stories, COVID cover stories, Inflation/Money Supply cover stories, etc. That is, the organs that kept us partially free in 1975 are now used to attack our ability to think, every day of our lives.

III) Anyone not going along with I) and II) sticks out like an absolute sore thumb and is targeted for “Image Cheapening”. This is abhorrent abuse of power.

IV) @RepLuna isn’t stupid. If she can talk about Physical Law and “Interdimensional beings”, she can place a phone call or two to our physicists or differential geometers/topologists. I’m happy to help direct her to good folks.

V) The UFO community is way too recreational. What ever is hidden behind the UAP curtain is serious business. It involved high level physics as recently as 50 years ago. Then that connection got buried. I just don’t know what this about. And I have *zero* proof it involves aliens or interdimensional beings.

VI) Adults who would never discuss the Tooth Fairy in public should not discuss alien equivalents of the Tooth Fairy. Alien life and higher dimensions are both super serious subjects to me. And they would be too you too if this wasn’t made into a cheap farce. Space opera is just dumping cognitive sludge in the middle of a central scientific question. And I don’t take kindly to it.

VII) I personally believe there are 4+6=10 =(d**2 + d)/2 for d=1+3 additional dimensions available for travel. But that would make **US**….humans….just as interdimensional as alien life. And we don’t evaluate any such ideas for our own travel. We just run out the clock listening to decades of the same 20 Octogenarians and Septuagenarians discussing how they are going to solve “Quantum Gravity” when they grow up. And we let them destroy all competitors so they can take down the field of theoretical physics and die in piece pretending they were the “Only Game In Town”. Which is total pure unadulterated anti-scientific bullshit. Think about it.

VIII) Nobody but nobody is this dumb. Not even the government on its worst day. This is national security cognitive sludge being dumped into science. We are 40+ years into a string theory fairy tale about “Quantum Gravity” without asking “Is this all bullshit?”

IX) Science needs to be in a dialogue with NatSec. And it needs to tell them to play nice and cut it out or we use our vast tools to figure out what is going on because this COVID level bullshit is too dumb to be believed. We are just one or two rogue billionaires away from being able to immunize our scientists from USG cutting off all funds and destroying their reputations. Breakaway science in the public interest. It can take as few as one personal fortune in the service of science to cure this. Just one. This whole post-WWII system of journals, peer review, grants, gatekeepers etc in fields like physics, economics and math is entirely vulnerable. We need to own

X) Lying about COVID and UAP is a modified NIMBY issue for all scientists: Not in our back yard(s). I’m just tired of scientists and technical folks being fed cognitive sludge by NatSec and national interest types we can’t see. Interdimensional or otherwise.

11:11 PM · Aug 14, 2025

What is the point of having elite scientists, if our government representatives bypass science and start repeating sciencey-sounding vibe nonsense to the public?

If there are “interdimensional beings”, then humans are also interdimensional beings.

As are golden retrievers. Etc. https://t.co/dgFdoMGZR9

3:34 PM · Aug 15, 2025

@RepLuna if you are serious about what you are saying please contact the scientific community and not just repeat stuff from the IC. I’m happy to make some introductions to relevant people.

3:34 PM · Aug 15, 2025

There is this sense I can’t shake that some “UAP” are actually Privately Identified but Publicly Unacknowledgable Arial Phenomena.

I wish we had a gross category for this PUAP, because some of these incidents seem suspect. I’m not sure I fully believe we don’t know what this is.

4:47 AM · Sep 10, 2025

That the IC and our defense contractors dump their cognitive sludge wherever they want.

And that the scientific community needs to tell them “Not in our back yard.”

Science needs to push back: either treat us like we are all on the same team, or we use science to figure it out.

1:10 PM · Sep 10, 2025

This video looks like a test to me. Like that sphere isn’t really there as a solid metal orb.

Like it’s plasma or a gel or an optical decoy or a spoof or…

Or whatever. What the hell do I know!? I’m a pure math guy not a defense guy.

But this feels stupid.

One man’s opinion.

1:15 PM · Sep 10, 2025

Bottom Line: the science community should return the level of respect shown to us by the IC/Defense/Natsec group. *Whatever* that level is.

If they respect us, we should respect them.

But I am now beyond fed up with the abuse.

If they think we are this dumb, then let’s see.

1:19 PM · Sep 10, 2025

The people who ridicule interest in UAPs, ridicule interest in SAPs.

3:20 PM · Oct 17, 2025

Yes.

I think the US almost certainly has at least one fake UFO program. A decoy.

Think of that decoy as putting out bad information to confuse adversaries. But what does it due to our own scientists?

Now imagine a post relativistic gravitational theory group PRTG here on earth. You would imagine that our own government would be working with that PRTG. Because that group is trying to figure out if we are trapped here, the last thing you want to do is to have the f****ng decoy program polluting our own understanding.

I think the morons in our decoy program forgot to bring in their own PRTGs. Because to a PRTG, UFOs….real NHI craft….would be key data. And fake craft is just feeding your own scientists poison and polluting their own understanding.

So we don’t have ANY top tier PRTG in this game. That’s what makes me think there is only a fake UFO decoy program. OTOH…

@terracotta_hawk

Can you explain your thoughts a little better?

Have you put any thought into what’s actually going on specifically in the null hypothesis case? What’s this all for? It’s not clear to me at all that there is any sensibility in either direction.
