Ойын-сауық

Jim Underdown is joined by writer, performer, and podcaster Adam Felber (Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me, Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone) to delve into the world of UFOs - UAPs - or whatever you want to call them.
Jim and Adam talk about Roswell, Navy videos, and other weird stuff in the sky. Mick West shoots down some commonly held beliefs about skyward mysteries and SETI senior astronomer Seth Shostak explains why the odds are not in our favor for crossing paths with intelligent ETs.

    Love that line, "We have to be more inclusive of other BS." Sums up these times pretty well.

    Back in the 1980s while camping in New Hampshire, my then wife and I were looking at the stars and talking about deep space. All of a sudden we saw a light far in the distance and moving across the sky and supernatural speed. We were both agog at this sighting, and for the next 90 seconds were fairly convinced that we had seen an alien craft (I was not a very good critical thinker then). I say 90 seconds, because that was how long before we saw it again, but this time the light came on farther to the left, and we could see that it was under the branch of a tree. It was a firefly. Forced perspective and our focus on deep space created a misunderstanding in our minds.

    You're still not a good critical thinker if you thought a firefly was a ufo back in 1980.

    The fact that we exist is powerful evidence that technologically capable life is exceedingly rare. If that were not so, Earth would have been colonized by some other intelligence during the billions of years while it was habitable but lacked an intelligent species. Life may be common, but technologically capable life not so much, at least not life technologically capable of disbursing through space.

    What relevance is all of this in relation to combat pilots who fly multimillion dollar F18s to investigate multiple radar returns only to discover a strange shaped physical object that they photograph, that can outmaneuver and out distance them and when they try to get a weapons lock on it they get active jamming that defeats their systems? And we are not talking one pilot or radar operator but many from different militaries around the world. I have no idea what these things are but I am pretty confident they are not coffee pot lids on a rope hanging from a big stick.

    The 2004 USS Nimitz story blew my mind the first, second, third and fourth times I heard David Fravor tell it, but the more you look into that story the more you start to notice it actually has some pretty big holes in it.

    Why isn't Mick West working for the US Department of Defense? He would be a great PR man as a corrective for the silly talk radio crowd. 😮

    The big boys do enough to confuse, distort, mis-inform and ignore most good evidence, In fact quite a number of intelligent people ignore it as well, a good example is Sean Kirkpatrick, former head of AARO. If there's nothing to it, why is it so secret? We know at least one firm truth, the US DOD, military has either lied to us all in the past, or they are lying now, which one do you prefer.

    Such tragically pathetic ignorance and stupidity demonstrates how polarization of skepticism creates its own religion. Sadly, these 'skeptics' wouldn't know skepticism if it was in front of them.
