    The Navy has said that the UFO footage in the news a year or so ago is real, and should not have been made public. Story. Somebody tell @Soma . Or JohnM, if anyone still has contact with him.

    Don't worry it was just swamp gas from a weather balloon.

    My first thought upon reading the thread title:

    "...and they're spectacular."

    On topic:

    Shouldn't get your hopes up too high for aliens. I suspect some country--probably us--has some very surprising technology they're trying to keep under wraps.

    The Navy pilots in the planes in the videos may be guinea pigs in an experiment to see how military pilots will respond to these vehicles.

    Seriously, is this the real life?

    The footage caused a sensation when The Washington Post and The New York Times, among others, revealed that the video had been obtained and released by the To The Stars Academy Of Arts And Science, the private research and media firm co-founded by rocker Tom DeLonge, formerly of Blink 182.

    Just to remind everyone, UFO stands for:

    Unidentified
    Flying
    Object

    It doesn't mean aliens. It just means no one knows what the fuck it is. :shrug:

    Donald Trump is the Republican President and Blink 182 discovered aliens.

    I’m ready to wake up.

    We better hope it's us because if it's another country we are seriously going to get our ass kicked in any military conflict just based on what those UFO's were doing.

    If you've got the technology to cross even just 4 lightyears, you've got the ability to make a craft which is undetectable by primitive monkeys such as ourselves. It ain't aliens. :bailey:

    so the other explanation is somebody from right here on this planet has figured out how to defy (or at least survive) the harsh laws of physics. So who is it? :chris:

    You do realize flying craft no longer need a pilot, right? Drones don't have the problems we do with physics.

    One would think all these military educated motherfuckers around here would recognize that.

    What kind of device known to earthlings doesn’t produce any heat? Don’t know what I’m talking about, look at the Kimble video and tell me.

    Read up on stealth technology. The exhaust ports of the B-2 bomber (as well as other stealth vehicles) are designed to drop the temps of the exhaust to levels low enough that heat-seeking missiles can't get a lock. It's actually not all that hard. Especially if you're familiar with things like aerogels.

    And I'm sure you've got a citation from a respected academic journal to back that up.

    Also for the skeptics, this is the same craft Bob Lazar described with the same type of propulsion and it’s the same craft described by Betty and Barney Hill and several credible witnesses have described as being similar and they all say they are from zeta reticuli which is 40 light years from here and the first radio transitions would have made it to Zeta Reticuli and back around the same time the Roswell incident happened and it was shortly after the first atomic explosion happened, so...:shrug:

    Everything, as far as we know, produces heat. I don’t need scientific journals to prove that, it’s well known even in basic physics from high school. Everything that exerts energy has to produce heat. Unless it’s an alien craft that figured it out. We certainly don’t have that type of technology, even if it were a secret project.

    Who isn't credible.
    Got schematics of that propulsion?
    A saucer? Whoa! Who ever heard of aliens traveling in such a thing?
    These would be whom?

    :facepalm:

    Allow me to introduce you to the inverse square law. Essentially, this means that basically once you get a "short" (in cosmic terms, so less than a couple of lightyears) distance from the solar system, everything we produce in the radio frequencies drops to the level of background radiation and is indistinguishable from all the other crap the cosmos spews out.

    Actually, it is not that it does not have to produce heat, it is that it has to be able to fool heat sensors. as many would know one can use a pane of glass to obfuscate a heat source.

    Dude, no one says it does not produce heat. It is more probably that we cannot sense the heat from our location.

    If you had a vantage point where you could accurately say whether or not it is producing heat you would be inside the damned thing and would know what it was. Your claim it does not produce heat is not proven.
