What to Expect at the Upcoming UFO Hearings
Believers in alien visitation are found in all segments of society: government and academia included.
I considered making this a joke post with just a blank page to follow that headline, because that’s exactly what we’re going to get from this newest UFO hearing scheduled for Wednesday, July 26.
The previous hearings have all followed a pattern: members of congressional subcommittees have grilled people involved with these various UFO Task Forces to reveal what they know, and they’ve answered consistently that they don’t know very much, and certainly nothing interesting. That such hearings continue to be scheduled tells us the Congresspeople are not very satisfied. They want the proof of aliens.
Congressman Tim Burchett tweeted “We’re done with the coverups.” So obviously he thinks something (aliens???) is being “covered up”. Probably by the Deep State.
Many in the UFOlogy committee feel the same way. They celebrate each of these hearings in advance, believing that they will finally be “disclosure,” which is a sort of fantasy Judgment Day where the true believers will have their dreams confirmed as reality, and the rest of us skeptical folks will be cast into the abyss, or something.
The thing that probably drove this hearing was the release of an unpublished paper, oddly co-authored by Avi Loeb (the Harvard astrophysicists best known for IDing ‘Oumuamua as an alien spacecraft) and Sean Kirkpatrick (director of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office). The paper argues that the “highly maneuverable Unidentified Aerial Phenomena” seen in the Navy videos are best explained as probes from an alien mothership. This is not my own overly-enthusiastic interpretation; this is what they really argue. Read the paper and see for yourself. A representative quote:
