Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO)

Do Not Sell My Personal Information

Pure arrogance to think whatever you're referring to is absolute.

"It broke the laws of physics!" "No dude, that's a visual effect from the way you're holding your lens"

Whatever you pick out, I'm sure there's an explanation... like this one

I'm not saying that every video is legit, and that a good portion of them arent easily identifiable.

There are legitimate videos that capture aerial maneuvers that are completely unheard of. Things that aren't easily explainable as camera tricks etc.

I've seen plenty of things that defy explanation. Aerial phenomenon happens to be one of them.

But sure, let's go with secret military experiments that defy current technology limitations. We've totally created flying technology that doesn't use current propulsion systems. Same human beings that still haven't figured out energy retention/battery technology.

Until the existence of aliens is proven, there is zero basis in saying that we are not capable of the engineering comprehension demonstrated. I could blame Bigfoot for destroying my garden, but it was probably something else.

The actual truth of the UFO phenomena is that the vast majority of sightings are military in origin and this has been demonstrated over and over. UFOs in WWII were German jets. UFOs in the 60s and 70s were next generation high-speed recon planes like the SR-71 and others. Triangular UFOs of the early 80s were stealth fighters and bombers. All the post-War sightings seemingly happened in proximity to US military installations. Why? Well, because it is the best way to test the shit.

Finally, the limit of military aviation technology until recently has been what the human body can take. We have reached that limit as of the late 90s with the F-22 and the latest high performance Russian planes.

What people are overlooking is the growth in Drone capability over the past 15 years, and the fact that a craft no longer bound by the presence of a human pilot would be capable of far greater speed and maneuverability than manned aircraft.

Occums razor still applies.

5000 years of recorded human history mentioning beings from above isn't good enough?
 
Pretty certain that life exists in the universe, but if aliens were visiting the earth, SETI likely would have found evidence by now.

No.

Humans have made up all manner of shit in their minds that doesn't make sense. And that later has a perfectly reasonable explanation.

Relying on stone age societies to describe complex phenomena is tricky. They thought eating mercury was a good idea.

Recent examples of proof of ET life have been decidedly less than convincing.

Maybe the government is hiding something.

But then again, you can't prove a thing with an absence of proof not proving a thing.

Again, there is a history of misidentification with military craft and UFOs. Documented and proven over the years.

The simplest, most verifiable answer is usually the correct one.

No.

For the same reason that, even though there are vast libraries of fanfics about you and @David. becoming a gay couple and raising kids together, it would be foolish of me to assume that actually happened.

Do you honestly think that if alien life were to reach earth during the time we were alive, that nothing would happen? Even if everything were to align perfectly, for another civilization to reach our planet during this point in time, surely something would come out of it--not just flying around in the atmosphere looking silly.

For your terrible joke, I'm out.
 
I dunno. If I was an alien on a new planet, I would just do aerial donuts over confused natives and then run away
 
My daughter just got a tattoo of a UFO above her knee today. Saw this thread, thought i would add, not sure how I feel about it, lol

All those Unidentified Fucking Objects she's encountered?

She hasnt even drank before, she is bi, so anyone is fair game, and she has been with one guy, but really not the type. And not offended, but usually everyone is fair game in my books but kids.

But I do appreciate the attempt at humor even if i find it fell short.
