00:03:44,319 importance of them 84 00:03:48,149 --> 00:03:46,720 thank you uh 85 00:03:49,670 --> 00:03:48,159 actually i'm not prepared to talk about 86 00:03:51,990 --> 00:03:49,680 the questions 87 00:03:53,589 --> 00:03:52,000 sorry about that i can uh i can go into 88 00:03:55,030 --> 00:03:53,599 the details of how we led up to the 89 00:03:56,470 --> 00:03:55,040 questions 90 00:03:58,949 --> 00:03:56,480 for the most part what we did is we 91 00:04:00,630 --> 00:03:58,959 started off uh like looking and saying 92 00:04:03,350 --> 00:04:00,640 well we need to be able to get something 93 00:04:05,350 --> 00:04:03,360 up there to the hill to basically help 94 00:04:06,470 --> 00:04:05,360 carry on the conversation and also 95 00:04:08,470 --> 00:04:06,480 inform 96 00:04:10,949 --> 00:04:08,480 a lot of the uh the individuals that 97 00:04:12,390 --> 00:04:10,959 would be attending or other congress 98 00:04:15,429 --> 00:04:12,400 congressional leaders 99 00:04:17,830 --> 00:04:15,439 and so we as a group begin drafting some 100 00:04:20,229 --> 00:04:17,840 questions that were relating to 101 00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:20,239 you know the subject of uh that was on 102 00:04:25,510 --> 00:04:22,560 hand and wanting to know more 103 00:04:27,030 --> 00:04:25,520 uh and we basically went through and 104 00:04:29,030 --> 00:04:27,040 pretty much collaborated with a whole 105 00:04:31,110 --> 00:04:29,040 variety of people to go and get those 106 00:04:33,909 --> 00:04:31,120 questions ironed out 107 00:04:36,150 --> 00:04:33,919 uh sadly i'm aware of the fact that uh 108 00:04:37,749 --> 00:04:36,160 having watched that that they weren't 109 00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:37,759 asked 110 00:04:41,990 --> 00:04:39,360 and and they weren't even a lot of them 111 00:04:44,230 --> 00:04:42,000 were not even addressed in the actual 112 00:04:47,830 --> 00:04:44,240 hearing 113 00:04:49,430 --> 00:04:47,840 like many i think i was pretty 114 00:04:51,510 --> 00:04:49,440 disappointed by 115 00:04:53,749 --> 00:04:51,520 just overall what they didn't talk about 116 00:04:54,870 --> 00:04:53,759 and also i was very disappointed that 117 00:04:57,030 --> 00:04:54,880 they didn't 118 00:04:59,749 --> 00:04:57,040 seem to have a good understanding of 119 00:05:00,950 --> 00:04:59,759 even the history of the actual phenomena 120 00:05:02,390 --> 00:05:00,960 itself 121 00:05:04,070 --> 00:05:02,400 when you when you're going in front of 122 00:05:05,749 --> 00:05:04,080 an intelligence committee you would 123 00:05:08,469 --> 00:05:05,759 think that if you mention something 124 00:05:11,189 --> 00:05:08,479 along the lines of the the uh the 125 00:05:13,510 --> 00:05:11,199 nuclear cases that have been well 126 00:05:15,430 --> 00:05:13,520 publicized and are all over the board 127 00:05:17,430 --> 00:05:15,440 that you would certainly expect that 128 00:05:19,350 --> 00:05:17,440 they they would the individuals of a 129 00:05:21,590 --> 00:05:19,360 briefing would be able to mention that 130 00:05:24,870 --> 00:05:21,600 especially since that they're allegedly 131 00:05:29,430 --> 00:05:24,880 the head of uap projects right 132 00:05:31,670 --> 00:05:29,440 and so uh i was very taken back by that 133 00:05:33,590 --> 00:05:31,680 uh not that i expect them to know what 134 00:05:35,270 --> 00:05:33,600 happened before project blue book and 135 00:05:38,230 --> 00:05:35,280 the various projects like sign and 136 00:05:39,990 --> 00:05:38,240 grudge but nevertheless about a nuclear 137 00:05:42,550 --> 00:05:40,000 question you'd expect that that would be 138 00:05:44,310 --> 00:05:42,560 something that they could talk about so 139 00:05:47,270 --> 00:05:44,320 i came away pretty much disappointed i 140 00:05:49,830 --> 00:05:47,280 think a lot of the people that i saw in 141 00:05:52,870 --> 00:05:49,840 not having the questions addressed as 142 00:05:54,310 --> 00:05:52,880 well as also finding out uh 143 00:05:56,070 --> 00:05:54,320 you know just that they didn't cover 144 00:05:57,510 --> 00:05:56,080 that was disappointed 145 00:05:59,830 --> 00:05:57,520 we do have the questions by the way 146 00:06:01,590 --> 00:05:59,840 online so they are available at our 147 00:06:02,550 --> 00:06:01,600 website so you can go up and take a look 148 00:06:05,029 --> 00:06:02,560 at them 149 00:06:07,510 --> 00:06:05,039 um and so i encourage people to do that 150 00:06:09,029 --> 00:06:07,520 at explorespu.org 151 00:06:11,430 --> 00:06:09,039 and i'll just shut up for a minute and 152 00:06:13,270 --> 00:06:11,440 let you ask the other people 153 00:06:15,189 --> 00:06:13,280 no problem thank you okay should i jump 154 00:06:17,110 --> 00:06:15,199 in on that maybe rich could actually 155 00:06:18,710 --> 00:06:17,120 answer this better um 156 00:06:20,629 --> 00:06:18,720 it seems to me 157 00:06:22,469 --> 00:06:20,639 i i've only been researching the ufo 158 00:06:23,270 --> 00:06:22,479 aspect of this 159 00:06:25,670 --> 00:06:23,280 for 160 00:06:27,590 --> 00:06:25,680 probably 10 years compared to rich's 50s 161 00:06:28,870 --> 00:06:27,600 so he might have better insight on this 162 00:06:31,029 --> 00:06:28,880 but it seems to me that from the very 163 00:06:33,029 --> 00:06:31,039 beginning it was the air force that was 164 00:06:36,070 --> 00:06:33,039 involved with all of this and with 165 00:06:37,189 --> 00:06:36,080 ruppel and all the different committees 166 00:06:39,110 --> 00:06:37,199 um 167 00:06:41,510 --> 00:06:39,120 i mean obviously the office of special 168 00:06:44,230 --> 00:06:41,520 investigations is always a name that 169 00:06:46,629 --> 00:06:44,240 comes up in interrogating witnesses 170 00:06:48,230 --> 00:06:46,639 especially military witnesses so where 171 00:06:49,510 --> 00:06:48,240 are they in all of this i haven't seen 172 00:06:52,550 --> 00:06:49,520 them 173 00:06:54,390 --> 00:06:52,560 even make a peep this entire time and it 174 00:06:55,990 --> 00:06:54,400 i guess from from my point of view it 175 00:06:57,430 --> 00:06:56,000 seems that we're not going to get any 176 00:06:59,029 --> 00:06:57,440 meaningful information until they're 177 00:07:00,870 --> 00:06:59,039 involved 178 00:07:02,790 --> 00:07:00,880 i'd be happy to answer that because i do 179 00:07:04,230 --> 00:07:02,800 work in the dod and i can also tell you 180 00:07:07,189 --> 00:07:04,240 about some of the challenges that they 181 00:07:09,189 --> 00:07:07,199 have from a dod context especially and 182 00:07:11,749 --> 00:07:09,199 also working cooperatively and in 183 00:07:14,070 --> 00:07:11,759 conjunction with the ic part of that 184 00:07:16,710 --> 00:07:14,080 you know there's a title 10 and title 50 185 00:07:18,790 --> 00:07:16,720 organizations here uh then you're also 186 00:07:21,029 --> 00:07:18,800 talking about bringing in things like 187 00:07:22,390 --> 00:07:21,039 noaa and nasa 188 00:07:24,870 --> 00:07:22,400 uh and a whole bunch of other 189 00:07:27,270 --> 00:07:24,880 organizations that not i mean a lot of 190 00:07:29,510 --> 00:07:27,280 these organizations have not been 191 00:07:31,189 --> 00:07:29,520 investigating ufos 192 00:07:33,510 --> 00:07:31,199 that's not even a topic that they 193 00:07:35,830 --> 00:07:33,520 address and so 194 00:07:37,749 --> 00:07:35,840 what i picked up from the hearings was a 195 00:07:39,670 --> 00:07:37,759 lack of maturity of their overall 196 00:07:42,070 --> 00:07:39,680 program and processes 197 00:07:44,629 --> 00:07:42,080 so i think that what's happened is that 198 00:07:46,550 --> 00:07:44,639 it's gone from an unfunded 199 00:07:48,629 --> 00:07:46,560 task force that was made up of people 200 00:07:50,869 --> 00:07:48,639 that were working other duties as 201 00:07:53,189 --> 00:07:50,879 assigned that didn't have official 202 00:07:54,790 --> 00:07:53,199 positions and getting resourced 203 00:07:56,150 --> 00:07:54,800 to the point where now what they're 204 00:07:58,469 --> 00:07:56,160 doing is they're trying to get their 205 00:08:01,110 --> 00:07:58,479 structure built up they're also trying 206 00:08:03,589 --> 00:08:01,120 to be able to get cooperation from 207 00:08:05,909 --> 00:08:03,599 government agencies which is not always 208 00:08:08,469 --> 00:08:05,919 easy to do by the way 209 00:08:10,550 --> 00:08:08,479 and to then bring all that stuff 210 00:08:13,270 --> 00:08:10,560 together if you would 211 00:08:14,950 --> 00:08:13,280 into some cohesive like maybe database 212 00:08:16,309 --> 00:08:14,960 or structure where they can actually do 213 00:08:18,230 --> 00:08:16,319 something about it 214 00:08:20,629 --> 00:08:18,240 so you're absolutely right michael that 215 00:08:22,950 --> 00:08:20,639 going back to when i got started it was 216 00:08:24,950 --> 00:08:22,960 project blue book in dayton ohio and 217 00:08:27,270 --> 00:08:24,960 that was an air force project they were 218 00:08:28,869 --> 00:08:27,280 responsible for it at that time yeah 219 00:08:30,710 --> 00:08:28,879 right that wasn't it 220 00:08:32,550 --> 00:08:30,720 yeah right pat that's where i lived i 221 00:08:34,389 --> 00:08:32,560 lived uh just down the street from right 222 00:08:35,909 --> 00:08:34,399 pat in fact i went over to project blue 223 00:08:37,350 --> 00:08:35,919 book when i was still 224 00:08:39,190 --> 00:08:37,360 there uh 225 00:08:41,750 --> 00:08:39,200 so i got to know the parties and the 226 00:08:43,750 --> 00:08:41,760 players in fact i investigated ufo cases 227 00:08:44,550 --> 00:08:43,760 with a blue book officer sitting next to 228 00:08:45,990 --> 00:08:44,560 me 229 00:08:47,910 --> 00:08:46,000 so uh 230 00:08:50,550 --> 00:08:47,920 the point that i'm trying to say is that 231 00:08:52,630 --> 00:08:50,560 that the air force got into it got 232 00:08:54,710 --> 00:08:52,640 started with it they found out that they 233 00:08:56,470 --> 00:08:54,720 were starting to get some good reports 234 00:08:57,829 --> 00:08:56,480 certainly they didn't get every report 235 00:08:59,269 --> 00:08:57,839 because a lot of people don't trust 236 00:09:00,949 --> 00:08:59,279 reporting to the government about 237 00:09:03,190 --> 00:09:00,959 anything right so they they didn't 238 00:09:05,509 --> 00:09:03,200 report and a lot of people will never 239 00:09:07,030 --> 00:09:05,519 report i mean that's just the nature of 240 00:09:09,910 --> 00:09:07,040 the the problem because they don't want 241 00:09:12,070 --> 00:09:09,920 to be crazy or considered nuts or 242 00:09:12,949 --> 00:09:12,080 whatever like that so 243 00:09:14,790 --> 00:09:12,959 again 244 00:09:18,230 --> 00:09:14,800 they went to the air force the air force 245 00:09:19,910 --> 00:09:18,240 did their best with it hypothetically uh 246 00:09:21,829 --> 00:09:19,920 and they only looked at things that they 247 00:09:23,750 --> 00:09:21,839 got from the citizenry they weren't 248 00:09:26,230 --> 00:09:23,760 necessarily focused in on a lot of times 249 00:09:28,550 --> 00:09:26,240 the military well now you've got coming 250 00:09:30,710 --> 00:09:28,560 all this length of time later you 251 00:09:32,470 --> 00:09:30,720 suddenly don't have much engagement in 252 00:09:34,870 --> 00:09:32,480 the air force and you suddenly have the 253 00:09:36,470 --> 00:09:34,880 navy coming up and there were they were 254 00:09:38,550 --> 00:09:36,480 the lead to be able to get this whole 255 00:09:40,310 --> 00:09:38,560 thing going because they were seeing 256 00:09:42,310 --> 00:09:40,320 them all around their their carrier 257 00:09:43,829 --> 00:09:42,320 ships and and the water coming out you 258 00:09:44,630 --> 00:09:43,839 know and all this other stuff and so 259 00:09:46,630 --> 00:09:44,640 that 260 00:09:49,590 --> 00:09:46,640 now they take the lead 261 00:09:51,190 --> 00:09:49,600 uh and you got them now building the 262 00:09:53,829 --> 00:09:51,200 structure if you would 263 00:09:56,070 --> 00:09:53,839 uh and and and so that's what's happened 264 00:09:58,870 --> 00:09:56,080 is it's shifted over and then you have 265 00:10:01,190 --> 00:09:58,880 to also be fair to the the the uap task 266 00:10:03,110 --> 00:10:01,200 force they were they were not looking at 267 00:10:05,269 --> 00:10:03,120 the citizen cases they were looking at 268 00:10:07,430 --> 00:10:05,279 now the military cases right right so 269 00:10:08,949 --> 00:10:07,440 it's the exact opposite of what you had 270 00:10:10,870 --> 00:10:08,959 with the air force 271 00:10:12,550 --> 00:10:10,880 uh in the context of now getting these 272 00:10:15,269 --> 00:10:12,560 reports and looking at all that 273 00:10:16,949 --> 00:10:15,279 scientific data so i believe it's a lack 274 00:10:18,389 --> 00:10:16,959 of maturity they haven't got their 275 00:10:19,990 --> 00:10:18,399 processes in place 276 00:10:23,430 --> 00:10:20,000 they're still not connected to the full 277 00:10:25,509 --> 00:10:23,440 government you know and so consequently 278 00:10:27,190 --> 00:10:25,519 that's what you saw was the fact that 279 00:10:28,790 --> 00:10:27,200 well we can't address those questions we 280 00:10:29,590 --> 00:10:28,800 don't we haven't looked at those you 281 00:10:31,110 --> 00:10:29,600 know 282 00:10:33,430 --> 00:10:31,120 they talk about their cases there's talk 283 00:10:35,990 --> 00:10:33,440 about 144 cases that they looked and 284 00:10:37,829 --> 00:10:36,000 then they went up to 400. now it's a 285 00:10:41,910 --> 00:10:37,839 shift over to the fact that they're 286 00:10:46,069 --> 00:10:43,430 does that help 287 00:10:48,550 --> 00:10:46,079 yeah definitely 288 00:10:50,870 --> 00:10:48,560 could i get it a chance here to voice my 289 00:10:53,829 --> 00:10:50,880 opinion on the uh on the hearing yes so 290 00:10:55,350 --> 00:10:53,839 yeah i i might i might be the only one 291 00:10:57,509 --> 00:10:55,360 who's not as disappointed as everyone 292 00:10:59,190 --> 00:10:57,519 but that's because i use the trick going 293 00:11:02,150 --> 00:10:59,200 into the hearings i use the same trick i 294 00:11:04,470 --> 00:11:02,160 use after star wars episode one phantom 295 00:11:06,630 --> 00:11:04,480 menace which enabled me to enjoy 296 00:11:09,110 --> 00:11:06,640 episodes two and three is i kept my 297 00:11:11,990 --> 00:11:09,120 expectations low expecting to be 298 00:11:14,630 --> 00:11:12,000 disappointed and that's what enabled me 299 00:11:16,949 --> 00:11:14,640 to look at the silver lining i think i 300 00:11:18,310 --> 00:11:16,959 found a lot of silver linings actually 301 00:11:23,590 --> 00:11:18,320 um 302 00:11:26,150 --> 00:11:23,600 for example that the 2004 nimitz 303 00:11:28,069 --> 00:11:26,160 encounter still unknown that's 304 00:11:30,389 --> 00:11:28,079 really important because then that means 305 00:11:32,790 --> 00:11:30,399 people like mick west are claiming to be 306 00:11:35,190 --> 00:11:32,800 smarter than entire teams of military 307 00:11:36,870 --> 00:11:35,200 experts and he's got his video to video 308 00:11:39,670 --> 00:11:36,880 like look it was a bug in the camera 309 00:11:40,949 --> 00:11:39,680 this like the us military has admitted 310 00:11:42,710 --> 00:11:40,959 it's still unknown to this day so i 311 00:11:44,949 --> 00:11:42,720 thought that was a key moment 312 00:11:47,750 --> 00:11:44,959 the other key moment was like usos oh we 313 00:11:49,030 --> 00:11:47,760 can't can't talk about multi medium you 314 00:11:50,230 --> 00:11:49,040 know where that's going to be the closed 315 00:11:53,030 --> 00:11:50,240 session i'm like 316 00:11:55,750 --> 00:11:53,040 that is an important clue and that ties 317 00:11:58,470 --> 00:11:55,760 in with why is the navy leading versus 318 00:12:00,550 --> 00:11:58,480 the air force that seems to go hand in 319 00:12:02,870 --> 00:12:00,560 hand the navy is leading and somehow 320 00:12:05,269 --> 00:12:02,880 water is connected i think that there 321 00:12:08,150 --> 00:12:05,279 were important hints and clues there 322 00:12:10,389 --> 00:12:08,160 important silver linings um i am 323 00:12:12,230 --> 00:12:10,399 very grateful to scu that actually a 324 00:12:14,949 --> 00:12:12,240 small frac a small number of the 325 00:12:16,710 --> 00:12:14,959 questions submitted um were ones that i 326 00:12:18,150 --> 00:12:16,720 i i had come up with i think i was at 327 00:12:20,790 --> 00:12:18,160 the right place at the right time on 328 00:12:24,230 --> 00:12:20,800 email chains cause i'm on uapx but also 329 00:12:26,629 --> 00:12:24,240 scu and um and some of them were 330 00:12:28,710 --> 00:12:26,639 accidentally covered 331 00:12:31,910 --> 00:12:28,720 not from us not from our document but 332 00:12:33,670 --> 00:12:31,920 the the the silos for example um the the 333 00:12:35,590 --> 00:12:33,680 missile silos was it was a question i 334 00:12:37,829 --> 00:12:35,600 made sure we we got in there i was 335 00:12:39,350 --> 00:12:37,839 really happy when the one congressman 336 00:12:40,790 --> 00:12:39,360 pushed on that and he's like wait a 337 00:12:42,069 --> 00:12:40,800 second you guys never heard of this how 338 00:12:43,110 --> 00:12:42,079 can you have never heard of this that's 339 00:12:44,790 --> 00:12:43,120 ridiculous 340 00:12:46,790 --> 00:12:44,800 that was a good moment that was a 341 00:12:49,190 --> 00:12:46,800 positive moment rich is right that it's 342 00:12:50,949 --> 00:12:49,200 embarrassing that they wouldn't know but 343 00:12:52,870 --> 00:12:50,959 i'm looking at the positive i'm trying 344 00:12:55,110 --> 00:12:52,880 to focus on the positive the fact that 345 00:12:57,509 --> 00:12:55,120 it got brought up at all 346 00:12:59,670 --> 00:12:57,519 and that the congressman hounded them on 347 00:13:01,750 --> 00:12:59,680 and be like how can you guys not know 348 00:13:03,190 --> 00:13:01,760 this oh no one in authority told us well 349 00:13:05,590 --> 00:13:03,200 i'm an authority i'm telling you to 350 00:13:07,910 --> 00:13:05,600 check this out i think that that wasn't 351 00:13:09,430 --> 00:13:07,920 that was that was that's really good 352 00:13:11,430 --> 00:13:09,440 that that was being hounded and that the 353 00:13:13,350 --> 00:13:11,440 multi-medium that was the other one did 354 00:13:15,430 --> 00:13:13,360 get brought up even though then it was 355 00:13:17,430 --> 00:13:15,440 like shunted to like oh we'll talk about 356 00:13:18,310 --> 00:13:17,440 that in the closed session so there's 357 00:13:20,310 --> 00:13:18,320 certainly there's a lot to be 358 00:13:22,389 --> 00:13:20,320 disappointed about i don't have the the 359 00:13:24,389 --> 00:13:22,399 the 15 50 years of history as rich so i 360 00:13:25,269 --> 00:13:24,399 understand that it's very easy to get 361 00:13:26,790 --> 00:13:25,279 like 362 00:13:28,550 --> 00:13:26,800 um 363 00:13:30,310 --> 00:13:28,560 don't take this the wrong way rich 364 00:13:32,629 --> 00:13:30,320 you know it's easy to get cynical or 365 00:13:34,790 --> 00:13:32,639 jaded but i think i'm young i i'm not 366 00:13:36,389 --> 00:13:34,800 i'm not at that point yet so i actually 367 00:13:39,670 --> 00:13:36,399 wasn't that disappointed with the 368 00:13:41,750 --> 00:13:39,680 hearing i was actually surprised by the 369 00:13:43,430 --> 00:13:41,760 number of admissions that of things that 370 00:13:44,870 --> 00:13:43,440 like yeah we don't know there are things 371 00:13:47,509 --> 00:13:44,880 we still don't know 372 00:13:49,350 --> 00:13:47,519 and and this and that so so yes 373 00:13:51,350 --> 00:13:49,360 my take on it was actually more positive 374 00:13:53,030 --> 00:13:51,360 than anyone else i've talked to so far 375 00:13:55,110 --> 00:13:53,040 in the community 376 00:13:56,550 --> 00:13:55,120 i agree with you a bit there sorry i i 377 00:13:59,350 --> 00:13:56,560 agree with you a bit there because i was 378 00:14:00,629 --> 00:13:59,360 ex i tempered my expectations but i was 379 00:14:02,790 --> 00:14:00,639 surprised to not hear the word 380 00:14:04,230 --> 00:14:02,800 transmedium mentioned once 381 00:14:07,590 --> 00:14:04,240 or something about space-based 382 00:14:10,310 --> 00:14:07,600 geospatial systems or or underwater i i 383 00:14:11,750 --> 00:14:10,320 i can understand that deep conversations 384 00:14:14,629 --> 00:14:11,760 on it have to be have behind closed 385 00:14:16,230 --> 00:14:14,639 doors in the classified area but i was 386 00:14:17,829 --> 00:14:16,240 just it baffled me that i didn't hear 387 00:14:18,550 --> 00:14:17,839 that word once 388 00:14:21,350 --> 00:14:18,560 i think 389 00:14:22,389 --> 00:14:21,360 you're underwater at least 390 00:14:24,710 --> 00:14:22,399 i do 391 00:14:26,230 --> 00:14:24,720 again yeah i agree with you matt i think 392 00:14:28,949 --> 00:14:26,240 that there was like you know there were 393 00:14:30,069 --> 00:14:28,959 definitely positive moments in it i 394 00:14:31,430 --> 00:14:30,079 thought that it was interesting that 395 00:14:33,110 --> 00:14:31,440 while you had the one guy that was 396 00:14:34,629 --> 00:14:33,120 talking the congressman that was talking 397 00:14:36,069 --> 00:14:34,639 and bringing up the fact that he knew 398 00:14:37,670 --> 00:14:36,079 about the nukes and he knew about 399 00:14:39,189 --> 00:14:37,680 everything then you had this other 400 00:14:40,870 --> 00:14:39,199 congressman that's over there sitting in 401 00:14:43,189 --> 00:14:40,880 saying well we should go after ufo 402 00:14:45,509 --> 00:14:43,199 groups and we should basically you know 403 00:14:46,949 --> 00:14:45,519 uh you know go after them and find them 404 00:14:48,310 --> 00:14:46,959 or you know put them in jail or 405 00:14:50,550 --> 00:14:48,320 something like that because they might 406 00:14:52,790 --> 00:14:50,560 be misleading information you know and 407 00:14:55,110 --> 00:14:52,800 i'm thinking like you know wow that's 408 00:14:56,949 --> 00:14:55,120 that's a great you know great idea let's 409 00:14:58,550 --> 00:14:56,959 just go that's the scary part yeah 410 00:14:59,990 --> 00:14:58,560 whatever whatever happened to the first 411 00:15:01,670 --> 00:15:00,000 amendment right this was still a free 412 00:15:03,990 --> 00:15:01,680 country exactly 413 00:15:05,910 --> 00:15:04,000 that definitely was a scary moment which 414 00:15:06,790 --> 00:15:05,920 yeah yeah you're absolutely right i know 415 00:15:10,389 --> 00:15:06,800 yeah 416 00:15:11,990 --> 00:15:10,399 you know coming back to the point where 417 00:15:13,829 --> 00:15:12,000 like you know yeah i've been in it for a 418 00:15:15,990 --> 00:15:13,839 long time i would love to be able to see 419 00:15:18,069 --> 00:15:16,000 a really right uh an appropriate 420 00:15:20,069 --> 00:15:18,079 congressional hearing 421 00:15:21,990 --> 00:15:20,079 even with potentially having witnesses 422 00:15:23,829 --> 00:15:22,000 and things like that like ryan graves or 423 00:15:25,750 --> 00:15:23,839 something like that even talking to the 424 00:15:27,430 --> 00:15:25,760 general public right and that that 425 00:15:29,430 --> 00:15:27,440 wasn't part of that this was these were 426 00:15:30,949 --> 00:15:29,440 two people that were leading a program 427 00:15:33,189 --> 00:15:30,959 that were doing nothing more than just 428 00:15:34,470 --> 00:15:33,199 you know answering what they maybe like 429 00:15:36,629 --> 00:15:34,480 roughly knew 430 00:15:40,310 --> 00:15:36,639 uh and you didn't get a really proper 431 00:15:41,509 --> 00:15:40,320 perspective on the overall ufo or uap 432 00:15:42,710 --> 00:15:41,519 equation 433 00:15:45,189 --> 00:15:42,720 and you know i think that that would 434 00:15:49,030 --> 00:15:45,199 have been more dynamic for the public 435 00:15:51,430 --> 00:15:49,040 uh you know to have had and so 436 00:15:53,189 --> 00:15:51,440 go ahead where was kevin dave 437 00:15:55,269 --> 00:15:53,199 where's kevin dave where was gary verys 438 00:15:57,509 --> 00:15:55,279 where was where was his name 439 00:15:59,670 --> 00:15:57,519 where was alex dietrich like right 440 00:16:01,990 --> 00:15:59,680 where's ryan graves where are the actual 441 00:16:03,189 --> 00:16:02,000 witnesses yeah shouldn't they be before 442 00:16:05,430 --> 00:16:03,199 congress yeah 443 00:16:07,110 --> 00:16:05,440 that that's why my disappointment was 444 00:16:09,670 --> 00:16:07,120 there i mean you know i mean i've been 445 00:16:12,069 --> 00:16:09,680 waiting a long time to hear something of 446 00:16:14,870 --> 00:16:12,079 50 years right from when we had the last 447 00:16:17,749 --> 00:16:14,880 one right that my expectations were that 448 00:16:18,710 --> 00:16:17,759 it was not that significant i would be i 449 00:16:20,550 --> 00:16:18,720 i'm sure that there was going to be 450 00:16:22,870 --> 00:16:20,560 problems but i thought a little bit more 451 00:16:24,629 --> 00:16:22,880 would have been helpful and i just it 452 00:16:27,030 --> 00:16:24,639 didn't happen you know 453 00:16:28,310 --> 00:16:27,040 so anyway that that was why but yeah 454 00:16:30,150 --> 00:16:28,320 you're right there's there's silver 455 00:16:32,470 --> 00:16:30,160 linings in the fact that we're just even 456 00:16:34,949 --> 00:16:32,480 having this conversation 457 00:16:36,470 --> 00:16:34,959 you know yeah 458 00:16:38,230 --> 00:16:36,480 now towards the end of last year when 459 00:16:40,710 --> 00:16:38,240 the uh the gillibrand amendment first 460 00:16:41,509 --> 00:16:40,720 came up it had wording in there that 461 00:16:45,749 --> 00:16:41,519 would 462 00:16:47,509 --> 00:16:45,759 private scientific organizations but 463 00:16:51,350 --> 00:16:47,519 that didn't really make it through to 464 00:16:53,350 --> 00:16:51,360 the ndaa 2022 do you think that there's 465 00:16:55,430 --> 00:16:53,360 over classification or over secrecy 466 00:16:57,350 --> 00:16:55,440 that's stopping the scientific community 467 00:16:59,670 --> 00:16:57,360 from being able to work with the 468 00:17:02,069 --> 00:16:59,680 information and data 469 00:17:03,990 --> 00:17:02,079 uh yes i mean 470 00:17:05,750 --> 00:17:04,000 to be honest with you you heard very 471 00:17:09,510 --> 00:17:05,760 loud and clear about the fact that it's 472 00:17:10,549 --> 00:17:09,520 sources uh tactics and and and you know 473 00:17:14,549 --> 00:17:10,559 the type of 474 00:17:16,829 --> 00:17:14,559 they're using so they don't want to let 475 00:17:18,789 --> 00:17:16,839 on necessarily and share that type of 476 00:17:20,230 --> 00:17:18,799 information but let me put it through 477 00:17:22,549 --> 00:17:20,240 this way 478 00:17:25,350 --> 00:17:22,559 you don't have to have that you can you 479 00:17:27,750 --> 00:17:25,360 can get rid of the edit videos you can 480 00:17:29,510 --> 00:17:27,760 edit this or that and you can still pass 481 00:17:31,350 --> 00:17:29,520 those out to the scientific community 482 00:17:33,190 --> 00:17:31,360 and have it do it like we they did well 483 00:17:36,470 --> 00:17:33,200 like we did with the nimitz you know we 484 00:17:39,270 --> 00:17:36,480 put a 277 page paper together on that 485 00:17:41,029 --> 00:17:39,280 study you know knuth was a part of that 486 00:17:41,990 --> 00:17:41,039 and and robert powell and a whole bunch 487 00:17:44,390 --> 00:17:42,000 of others 488 00:17:46,150 --> 00:17:44,400 and it was actually taken up to the hill 489 00:17:48,950 --> 00:17:46,160 you know we got word that it was passed 490 00:17:50,710 --> 00:17:48,960 up so you can include you know the the 491 00:17:52,470 --> 00:17:50,720 people if you're just willing to like 492 00:17:55,029 --> 00:17:52,480 edit the video take out maybe some of 493 00:17:58,070 --> 00:17:55,039 the sensitive information and have 494 00:18:01,669 --> 00:17:58,080 them or scientists analyze that right 495 00:18:03,029 --> 00:18:01,679 and come up with a legitimate report so 496 00:18:04,470 --> 00:18:03,039 i hope that they can do that and they 497 00:18:06,390 --> 00:18:04,480 can come to grips with that at some 498 00:18:08,870 --> 00:18:06,400 point i mean i think it comes down to 499 00:18:11,029 --> 00:18:08,880 intent as well and how much they want us 500 00:18:13,430 --> 00:18:11,039 to know at any given time how much it 501 00:18:15,590 --> 00:18:13,440 because it can't just all be about 502 00:18:17,430 --> 00:18:15,600 things that are intelligence risks or 503 00:18:19,750 --> 00:18:17,440 they put us at risk with other nations i 504 00:18:21,990 --> 00:18:19,760 mean it seems just just looking at the 505 00:18:23,909 --> 00:18:22,000 draconian history of the way they've 506 00:18:25,750 --> 00:18:23,919 treated the public the scientists 507 00:18:27,110 --> 00:18:25,760 everybody involved in researching this 508 00:18:29,270 --> 00:18:27,120 over the last 509 00:18:31,190 --> 00:18:29,280 70 plus years i mean it's always been 510 00:18:33,750 --> 00:18:31,200 here's a little tidbit to snack on and 511 00:18:35,190 --> 00:18:33,760 then they rip everything away so 512 00:18:37,430 --> 00:18:35,200 it seems like yeah things are different 513 00:18:39,270 --> 00:18:37,440 things are better things are changing 514 00:18:42,390 --> 00:18:39,280 but i don't think you're just gonna get 515 00:18:44,470 --> 00:18:42,400 rid of that long history of of 516 00:18:45,830 --> 00:18:44,480 just leaking out what little bits they 517 00:18:46,789 --> 00:18:45,840 want to i think that's always going to 518 00:18:48,470 --> 00:18:46,799 be there 519 00:18:50,710 --> 00:18:48,480 i will point out that you know i am a 520 00:18:52,870 --> 00:18:50,720 defense contractor i'm contracted to 521 00:18:53,669 --> 00:18:52,880 work with army material command and you 522 00:18:55,110 --> 00:18:53,679 know 523 00:18:56,390 --> 00:18:55,120 the other thing that i'll bring up is 524 00:18:58,310 --> 00:18:56,400 the fact that there's a there's a 525 00:19:01,029 --> 00:18:58,320 tremendous industry out there that they 526 00:19:03,270 --> 00:19:01,039 can also rely on they have their own we 527 00:19:05,909 --> 00:19:03,280 have our own military labs with 528 00:19:07,430 --> 00:19:05,919 scientists and everything else so i mean 529 00:19:09,350 --> 00:19:07,440 you know to be fair 530 00:19:11,350 --> 00:19:09,360 they don't necessarily have to come out 531 00:19:14,070 --> 00:19:11,360 to the general public 532 00:19:16,789 --> 00:19:14,080 uh they've got a tremendous military you 533 00:19:18,630 --> 00:19:16,799 know uh group of scientists and people 534 00:19:21,990 --> 00:19:18,640 like that that they can go within the 535 00:19:23,750 --> 00:19:22,000 organization that do have you know 536 00:19:25,350 --> 00:19:23,760 you know that can seek classified yeah 537 00:19:26,950 --> 00:19:25,360 that's kind of anti-science though 538 00:19:28,630 --> 00:19:26,960 because it's it's about doing the 539 00:19:30,230 --> 00:19:28,640 research and then publishing getting it 540 00:19:31,909 --> 00:19:30,240 out there having other people look at 541 00:19:33,909 --> 00:19:31,919 your data looking at your results and 542 00:19:36,470 --> 00:19:33,919 then trying to repeat it get the same 543 00:19:38,070 --> 00:19:36,480 thing so yeah i mean i understand the 544 00:19:40,230 --> 00:19:38,080 reasons behind it when you interject 545 00:19:42,549 --> 00:19:40,240 intelligence that innately means only 546 00:19:44,789 --> 00:19:42,559 some things can be known but 547 00:19:45,750 --> 00:19:44,799 i don't know it's it flies in the face 548 00:19:47,510 --> 00:19:45,760 of science they have their own 549 00:19:49,190 --> 00:19:47,520 scientists but the scientific community 550 00:19:51,110 --> 00:19:49,200 as a whole is being left out of the 551 00:19:53,909 --> 00:19:51,120 conversation 552 00:19:56,070 --> 00:19:53,919 you're absolutely right i think it's uh 553 00:19:57,590 --> 00:19:56,080 and that's what creates this like 554 00:20:00,470 --> 00:19:57,600 huge chasm 555 00:20:02,390 --> 00:20:00,480 between the two worlds if you would the 556 00:20:04,470 --> 00:20:02,400 n class and that and so if they are 557 00:20:05,750 --> 00:20:04,480 going to try and balance transparency 558 00:20:07,590 --> 00:20:05,760 they they say that they're going to try 559 00:20:10,950 --> 00:20:07,600 to do transparency 560 00:20:13,029 --> 00:20:10,960 a suggestion would be to also allow the 561 00:20:15,270 --> 00:20:13,039 other people the scientists out there to 562 00:20:17,190 --> 00:20:15,280 be able to do something with it and 563 00:20:18,870 --> 00:20:17,200 actually be able to publish it and you 564 00:20:20,470 --> 00:20:18,880 know let's look at the phenomena it's 565 00:20:22,630 --> 00:20:20,480 it's out there right yeah i want to 566 00:20:24,149 --> 00:20:22,640 bring up something that that relevant 567 00:20:26,230 --> 00:20:24,159 here that kevin would say if he were 568 00:20:28,950 --> 00:20:26,240 here which is this is the issue here is 569 00:20:30,870 --> 00:20:28,960 the is the is that there's the tautology 570 00:20:32,230 --> 00:20:30,880 that it can't be broken because of all 571 00:20:34,390 --> 00:20:32,240 this classified data that's the 572 00:20:36,710 --> 00:20:34,400 tautology of scientists are not allowed 573 00:20:38,549 --> 00:20:36,720 to look at ufos why not because there 574 00:20:39,590 --> 00:20:38,559 are no published papers why are there no 575 00:20:41,270 --> 00:20:39,600 published papers because you're not 576 00:20:43,190 --> 00:20:41,280 allowed to look at it it's not so it's 577 00:20:45,909 --> 00:20:43,200 circular we're never going to break out 578 00:20:48,630 --> 00:20:45,919 of that circle until you have some brave 579 00:20:50,470 --> 00:20:48,640 journals and editors that do allow 580 00:20:52,470 --> 00:20:50,480 rigorous work but how's that even going 581 00:20:54,789 --> 00:20:52,480 to start if the juiciest data is still 582 00:20:57,590 --> 00:20:54,799 classified right and we just get the the 583 00:20:58,950 --> 00:20:57,600 lowest quality stuff i i so that's why i 584 00:21:01,110 --> 00:20:58,960 think you know citizen science is going 585 00:21:02,470 --> 00:21:01,120 to be the way to push this is is to use 586 00:21:04,230 --> 00:21:02,480 modern technology 587 00:21:06,630 --> 00:21:04,240 use use the fact that cameras have 588 00:21:09,270 --> 00:21:06,640 gotten so good right the camera in my 589 00:21:11,830 --> 00:21:09,280 pocket right now and my iphone 13 is 590 00:21:14,310 --> 00:21:11,840 like better than you know by orders of 591 00:21:16,549 --> 00:21:14,320 magnitude what existed in like the 1960s 592 00:21:18,310 --> 00:21:16,559 like with the space program so i think 593 00:21:20,950 --> 00:21:18,320 what we need to push citizen science 594 00:21:22,950 --> 00:21:20,960 forward to get data so good that it's 595 00:21:24,390 --> 00:21:22,960 the same quality the government has 596 00:21:26,470 --> 00:21:24,400 because you know civilian sector will be 597 00:21:28,630 --> 00:21:26,480 behind technologically depending you 598 00:21:31,510 --> 00:21:28,640 know on on the type of technology by 20 599 00:21:34,310 --> 00:21:31,520 30 years but that means we are right now 600 00:21:36,789 --> 00:21:34,320 with our our our cameras and our tech 601 00:21:38,789 --> 00:21:36,799 that we have access to as non-government 602 00:21:40,549 --> 00:21:38,799 people is just as good as what they had 603 00:21:41,909 --> 00:21:40,559 decades ago roughly very roughly 604 00:21:43,350 --> 00:21:41,919 speaking 605 00:21:45,190 --> 00:21:43,360 do you think that would force the hand 606 00:21:46,549 --> 00:21:45,200 of the government to say we don't want 607 00:21:47,990 --> 00:21:46,559 to be left behind 608 00:21:49,990 --> 00:21:48,000 oh yes absolutely i think that's the 609 00:21:52,149 --> 00:21:50,000 only way to do it is to come out and 610 00:21:55,029 --> 00:21:52,159 that was our also part of our mission on 611 00:21:56,789 --> 00:21:55,039 uapx is to try to collect eventually 612 00:21:58,070 --> 00:21:56,799 they i'm not saying we have a smoking 613 00:22:00,310 --> 00:21:58,080 gun yet or anything but we're getting 614 00:22:02,149 --> 00:22:00,320 there but to get data that's so good 615 00:22:04,230 --> 00:22:02,159 that the government's like well crap now 616 00:22:06,630 --> 00:22:04,240 they've got equal or better you know 617 00:22:09,510 --> 00:22:06,640 data than we have and so now there's no 618 00:22:10,710 --> 00:22:09,520 longer any point to classifying um a lot 619 00:22:12,710 --> 00:22:10,720 of it 620 00:22:13,669 --> 00:22:12,720 you're spot on yeah that's that's right 621 00:22:15,669 --> 00:22:13,679 i mean 622 00:22:18,390 --> 00:22:15,679 with the with the equipment you all had 623 00:22:19,590 --> 00:22:18,400 and the the advance of technology and 624 00:22:21,430 --> 00:22:19,600 tools that we could get and the 625 00:22:24,230 --> 00:22:21,440 affordability of it 626 00:22:25,990 --> 00:22:24,240 it now lends itself to being able to 627 00:22:27,350 --> 00:22:26,000 have those types of things out there 628 00:22:28,470 --> 00:22:27,360 where you will just collect it on our 629 00:22:30,630 --> 00:22:28,480 own you know 630 00:22:32,549 --> 00:22:30,640 um and you know and we'll do our own 631 00:22:34,390 --> 00:22:32,559 analysis and and i think that that's 632 00:22:35,669 --> 00:22:34,400 very doable 633 00:22:37,110 --> 00:22:35,679 exactly yeah 634 00:22:39,110 --> 00:22:37,120 now matthew you obviously featured 635 00:22:41,029 --> 00:22:39,120 recently in the documentary of tear in 636 00:22:43,270 --> 00:22:41,039 the sky but i think for a lot of people 637 00:22:45,350 --> 00:22:43,280 in the ufo community as researchers they 638 00:22:46,230 --> 00:22:45,360 are really looking forward to the data 639 00:22:51,990 --> 00:22:46,240 and 640 00:22:53,270 --> 00:22:52,000 presented at the uh the se conference um 641 00:22:54,789 --> 00:22:53,280 that's correct soon is there anything 642 00:22:57,270 --> 00:22:54,799 you can tell us about the process and 643 00:22:59,430 --> 00:22:57,280 how it's been going relating to that 644 00:23:01,990 --> 00:22:59,440 that area of the investigation 645 00:23:03,029 --> 00:23:02,000 yes absolutely so thank you we for our 646 00:23:04,630 --> 00:23:03,039 most 647 00:23:06,230 --> 00:23:04,640 interesting potentially interesting 648 00:23:07,110 --> 00:23:06,240 events we talked to 649 00:23:09,270 --> 00:23:07,120 um 650 00:23:12,310 --> 00:23:09,280 camera experts already atmospheric 651 00:23:15,430 --> 00:23:12,320 science experts to look for 652 00:23:18,230 --> 00:23:15,440 and rule in or rule out any mundane or 653 00:23:20,070 --> 00:23:18,240 prosaic explanations basically make mick 654 00:23:22,950 --> 00:23:20,080 west redundant people like him just do 655 00:23:24,950 --> 00:23:22,960 the self skepticism ourselves and and so 656 00:23:27,830 --> 00:23:24,960 that if something really is weird it 657 00:23:30,789 --> 00:23:27,840 really is weird because we double check 658 00:23:32,950 --> 00:23:30,799 triple check and try to be our own worst 659 00:23:34,950 --> 00:23:32,960 critics unfortunately there's always 660 00:23:36,870 --> 00:23:34,960 some some some bias if it's just 661 00:23:39,750 --> 00:23:36,880 internal and that's why as we said 662 00:23:41,269 --> 00:23:39,760 already we we are going to seek 663 00:23:43,350 --> 00:23:41,279 open-minded 664 00:23:46,789 --> 00:23:43,360 journals and editors because science is 665 00:23:48,630 --> 00:23:46,799 not complete without external unbiased 666 00:23:50,470 --> 00:23:48,640 peer review because we could triple 667 00:23:52,310 --> 00:23:50,480 quadruple check everything but there's 668 00:23:55,110 --> 00:23:52,320 still be things that we haven't thought 669 00:23:56,789 --> 00:23:55,120 of yet that does show something we 670 00:23:58,950 --> 00:23:56,799 caught that we thought was anomalous 671 00:24:01,430 --> 00:23:58,960 interesting really does have a prozac 672 00:24:03,990 --> 00:24:01,440 explanation so we've already if you've 673 00:24:05,990 --> 00:24:04,000 watched the youtube roundtable um on 674 00:24:08,070 --> 00:24:06,000 jeremy mcgowan's channel after the movie 675 00:24:09,510 --> 00:24:08,080 you'll see we've already knocked out a 676 00:24:11,909 --> 00:24:09,520 couple things that are in the movie 677 00:24:13,590 --> 00:24:11,919 we're like ah well that turns out to 678 00:24:15,669 --> 00:24:13,600 have a boring explanation that wasn't 679 00:24:18,630 --> 00:24:15,679 weird and so we're trying to knock 680 00:24:20,870 --> 00:24:18,640 things out like that to really whittle 681 00:24:22,310 --> 00:24:20,880 it down to what 682 00:24:25,669 --> 00:24:22,320 was truly 683 00:24:27,909 --> 00:24:25,679 anomalous and doesn't allow for an easy 684 00:24:30,149 --> 00:24:27,919 simple explanation so really i'm i'm 685 00:24:31,269 --> 00:24:30,159 hoping that gives you a glimpse into our 686 00:24:33,110 --> 00:24:31,279 process 687 00:24:34,149 --> 00:24:33,120 yeah absolutely i'm really looking 688 00:24:35,430 --> 00:24:34,159 forward to 689 00:24:37,350 --> 00:24:35,440 to seeing that what comes with the 690 00:24:38,870 --> 00:24:37,360 conference um so let's discuss the 691 00:24:40,549 --> 00:24:38,880 conference rich can you give us kind of 692 00:24:43,029 --> 00:24:40,559 the because i know that is is it in 693 00:24:46,310 --> 00:24:43,039 collaboration with the aiaa 694 00:24:47,669 --> 00:24:46,320 um or ryan graves is well well ryan is 695 00:24:50,310 --> 00:24:47,679 of course is with him and we have a 696 00:24:53,669 --> 00:24:50,320 number of scu people uh even kevin uh 697 00:24:55,350 --> 00:24:53,679 kevin is a part of i believe that that 698 00:24:57,990 --> 00:24:55,360 community of interest i mean he 699 00:25:01,190 --> 00:24:58,000 presented uh but ryan is and then we 700 00:25:03,669 --> 00:25:01,200 also have uh peter reali as on i believe 701 00:25:06,549 --> 00:25:03,679 working with them as well so we are 702 00:25:09,269 --> 00:25:06,559 connected with them uh we're not 703 00:25:12,230 --> 00:25:09,279 partnered with them 704 00:25:13,669 --> 00:25:12,240 we are just members of of of that 705 00:25:15,269 --> 00:25:13,679 community of interest that he's going to 706 00:25:17,110 --> 00:25:15,279 be responsible for 707 00:25:19,430 --> 00:25:17,120 uh i hope i'm looking forward to being 708 00:25:21,830 --> 00:25:19,440 able to have the conversation with ryan 709 00:25:23,269 --> 00:25:21,840 and uh you know at the

talking about a 797 00:28:20,470 --> 00:28:18,640 whole host of things you know we we need 798 00:28:21,110 --> 00:28:20,480 to compare notes because actually you 799 00:28:23,830 --> 00:28:21,120 know 800 00:28:25,830 --> 00:28:23,840 we're partnered with uapx and of course 801 00:28:28,149 --> 00:28:25,840 matthew is a part of both organizations 802 00:28:30,630 --> 00:28:28,159 uh but i mean ultimately to see how we 803 00:28:32,310 --> 00:28:30,640 can help with that data that they have 804 00:28:34,470 --> 00:28:32,320 if there's a way for us to help out 805 00:28:36,549 --> 00:28:34,480 we're even on the help out on the peer 806 00:28:38,149 --> 00:28:36,559 review type of aspects there's a whole 807 00:28:39,590 --> 00:28:38,159 host of ways we can do that and so we're 808 00:28:41,909 --> 00:28:39,600 gonna have a conversation at the 809 00:28:43,830 --> 00:28:41,919 conference about that 810 00:28:45,909 --> 00:28:43,840 uh yeah it's gonna be great because yeah 811 00:28:47,990 --> 00:28:45,919 we're we're so as richard said where 812 00:28:49,669 --> 00:28:48,000 uapx is liaising 813 00:28:52,710 --> 00:28:49,679 liaisoning i know the proper way to make 814 00:28:55,750 --> 00:28:52,720 that verb with scu because we have so 815 00:28:58,389 --> 00:28:55,760 much data and such a vast amount of data 816 00:29:00,149 --> 00:28:58,399 we all the uh ambiguities or anomalies 817 00:29:01,909 --> 00:29:00,159 you talk about was from like less than 818 00:29:04,950 --> 00:29:01,919 one percent of the data we have hundreds 819 00:29:07,830 --> 00:29:04,960 of hours especially a flare of infrared 820 00:29:10,310 --> 00:29:07,840 imagery and we need people to go go 821 00:29:12,710 --> 00:29:10,320 through that and so scu is going to help 822 00:29:14,950 --> 00:29:12,720 us classify things you know that's a 823 00:29:16,870 --> 00:29:14,960 bird that's an airplane and and help 824 00:29:18,549 --> 00:29:16,880 narrow down to like oh they're this this 825 00:29:20,950 --> 00:29:18,559 object is not an airplane it doesn't 826 00:29:24,070 --> 00:29:20,960 match you know okay so this we really 827 00:29:25,510 --> 00:29:24,080 look forward to to working with um a uap 828 00:29:27,909 --> 00:29:25,520 x really looks forward looking working 829 00:29:29,830 --> 00:29:27,919 with scu to get through this giant 830 00:29:31,990 --> 00:29:29,840 amount of data we have from just our one 831 00:29:33,909 --> 00:29:32,000 week-long expedition 832 00:29:36,310 --> 00:29:33,919 excellent yeah that's fantastic i think 833 00:29:37,669 --> 00:29:36,320 it's it was really great when i think 834 00:29:39,269 --> 00:29:37,679 you know towards the end of last year 835 00:29:41,269 --> 00:29:39,279 people were really focusing on on the 836 00:29:43,269 --> 00:29:41,279 scientific organizations to really come 837 00:29:45,029 --> 00:29:43,279 through and it seems that it's happening 838 00:29:47,190 --> 00:29:45,039 you know big time at the moment with 839 00:29:49,750 --> 00:29:47,200 with yourself rich in the scu and and 840 00:29:51,269 --> 00:29:49,760 uapx and also the galileo project do 841 00:29:53,029 --> 00:29:51,279 either of your groups 842 00:29:55,990 --> 00:29:53,039 speak or collaborate in any way with 843 00:29:59,029 --> 00:29:56,000 with avi loeb and his team 844 00:30:00,710 --> 00:29:59,039 uh we we i'll speak from the seo side we 845 00:30:03,350 --> 00:30:00,720 do have people that are attending the 846 00:30:05,190 --> 00:30:03,360 meetings uh we also you know like i 847 00:30:07,830 --> 00:30:05,200 think robert powell or some others or 848 00:30:09,909 --> 00:30:07,840 possibly uh they're listed as being 849 00:30:12,149 --> 00:30:09,919 affiliates or there's research 850 00:30:14,389 --> 00:30:12,159 affiliates or some sort of like ta way 851 00:30:16,070 --> 00:30:14,399 of doing that but but we are uh we are 852 00:30:18,310 --> 00:30:16,080 attending meetings and trying to provide 853 00:30:20,710 --> 00:30:18,320 input where where it's you know accepted 854 00:30:22,710 --> 00:30:20,720 and stuff like that uh they they seem to 855 00:30:24,630 --> 00:30:22,720 be wanting to though pretty much stay 856 00:30:26,389 --> 00:30:24,640 within their own community in the 857 00:30:28,870 --> 00:30:26,399 context of 858 00:30:31,190 --> 00:30:28,880 uh you know truly wanting 859 00:30:33,190 --> 00:30:31,200 scientists uh that are out there that 860 00:30:35,110 --> 00:30:33,200 avi maybe knows or something like that 861 00:30:37,350 --> 00:30:35,120 that he's and he's trying to stay away 862 00:30:38,870 --> 00:30:37,360 from also the the maybe any anybody 863 00:30:41,590 --> 00:30:38,880 that's connected with ufos believe it or 864 00:30:43,750 --> 00:30:41,600 not uh but it's pretty much you know 865 00:30:46,149 --> 00:30:43,760 trying to be uh as objective and 866 00:30:47,909 --> 00:30:46,159 scientific as he possibly can 867 00:30:49,430 --> 00:30:47,919 and i understand that you know i mean he 868 00:30:51,029 --> 00:30:49,440 doesn't want to bring in you know the 869 00:30:53,110 --> 00:30:51,039 woo-woo groups or anything of that 870 00:30:54,389 --> 00:30:53,120 nature which might want to be able to be 871 00:30:56,230 --> 00:30:54,399 in that but 872 00:30:58,549 --> 00:30:56,240 anyway it's it's a good relationship and 873 00:30:59,990 --> 00:30:58,559 we are trying to help out 874 00:31:01,350 --> 00:31:00,000 that's great to hear 875 00:31:03,350 --> 00:31:01,360 um i'm not sure what's happening with 876 00:31:04,950 --> 00:31:03,360 michael uh mike if you can hear us it 877 00:31:06,230 --> 00:31:04,960 might be easy just to leave and jump 878 00:31:08,470 --> 00:31:06,240 back in again 879 00:31:10,789 --> 00:31:08,480 um so matthew what about yourselves and 880 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:10,799 you apx are you uh having conversations 881 00:31:14,710 --> 00:31:13,450 or any work with with professor loeb 882 00:31:15,909 --> 00:31:14,720 [Music] 883 00:31:17,430 --> 00:31:15,919 um 884 00:31:19,350 --> 00:31:17,440 well it's a bit difficult like rich said 885 00:31:21,669 --> 00:31:19,360 they really want to forge 886 00:31:24,870 --> 00:31:21,679 avi really wants to forge his own path 887 00:31:26,470 --> 00:31:24,880 um so we we take we we want to we have a 888 00:31:29,110 --> 00:31:26,480 different approach though on new apx as 889 00:31:31,590 --> 00:31:29,120 we just said liaisoning scu um the 890 00:31:33,350 --> 00:31:31,600 philosophy on that that i've told rich 891 00:31:36,070 --> 00:31:33,360 in the past my own personal philosophy 892 00:31:37,669 --> 00:31:36,080 is we have way too many groups um 893 00:31:40,149 --> 00:31:37,679 there's like an alphabet soup of 894 00:31:43,430 --> 00:31:40,159 acronyms right we've got like gp and 895 00:31:47,509 --> 00:31:43,440 uapx and scu and kufos and mufon and 896 00:31:49,110 --> 00:31:47,519 skyhub and tg2p and all this i i i 897 00:31:51,990 --> 00:31:49,120 envision that i hope someday we can 898 00:31:54,710 --> 00:31:52,000 consolidate to a much smaller number of 899 00:31:57,590 --> 00:31:54,720 groups and pool our resources pool our 900 00:31:58,389 --> 00:31:57,600 resources together because i think that 901 00:32:00,310 --> 00:31:58,399 um 902 00:32:02,710 --> 00:32:00,320 it it that that's the best way to make 903 00:32:04,470 --> 00:32:02,720 progress because i worry that sometimes 904 00:32:06,630 --> 00:32:04,480 we all have different pieces of the 905 00:32:09,110 --> 00:32:06,640 puzzle but if we don't play with the 906 00:32:11,110 --> 00:32:09,120 other people and bring our puzzle pieces 907 00:32:14,230 --> 00:32:11,120 and put them on the table then we're 908 00:32:16,149 --> 00:32:14,240 really going to have a tough time 909 00:32:18,789 --> 00:32:16,159 making progress i think it's extremely 910 00:32:20,950 --> 00:32:18,799 important um to collaborate and and work 911 00:32:22,710 --> 00:32:20,960 together i'd like to make a point on 912 00:32:25,669 --> 00:32:22,720 that because i think that when we 913 00:32:26,950 --> 00:32:25,679 initially formed uh scu we saw this as a 914 00:32:32,950 --> 00:32:26,960 coalition 915 00:32:34,389 --> 00:32:32,960 matter whether you're a part of any 916 00:32:35,669 --> 00:32:34,399 other group 917 00:32:37,430 --> 00:32:35,679 it it's about the fact that we're 918 00:32:38,549 --> 00:32:37,440 getting together and having a discussion 919 00:32:41,590 --> 00:32:38,559 together 920 00:32:43,669 --> 00:32:41,600 and that's new that's where and it's all 921 00:32:46,710 --> 00:32:43,679 disciplines and all views should be 922 00:32:48,630 --> 00:32:46,720 brought together right so i mean uh you 923 00:32:50,789 --> 00:32:48,640 know it's not like we have any answers 924 00:32:52,630 --> 00:32:50,799 to this whether it be you know 925 00:32:54,070 --> 00:32:52,640 extraterrestrial source or whether it be 926 00:32:56,310 --> 00:32:54,080 time travel or whether it be any 927 00:32:58,070 --> 00:32:56,320 anything else which nobody knows right 928 00:33:00,230 --> 00:32:58,080 so let's all have a com you know a 929 00:33:02,950 --> 00:33:00,240 combined discussion about this and see 930 00:33:05,430 --> 00:33:02,960 if we can you know use our coalition to 931 00:33:07,029 --> 00:33:05,440 be able to help have those conversations 932 00:33:08,950 --> 00:33:07,039 communicate with each other bump into 933 00:33:10,710 --> 00:33:08,960 each other and have scientists get you 934 00:33:12,549 --> 00:33:10,720 know researchers and stuff like that 935 00:33:14,630 --> 00:33:12,559 talk about what they've done so that's 936 00:33:16,149 --> 00:33:14,640 that's where we're trying to be we're 937 00:33:18,149 --> 00:33:16,159 i i don't care whether you're a part of 938 00:33:19,590 --> 00:33:18,159 another organization 939 00:33:21,590 --> 00:33:19,600 that's if you want to do that that's 940 00:33:23,430 --> 00:33:21,600 great but 941 00:33:24,789 --> 00:33:23,440 let's 942 00:33:27,509 --> 00:33:24,799 i agree with matt i think that's 943 00:33:29,269 --> 00:33:27,519 important um do you see the seo as being 944 00:33:31,509 --> 00:33:29,279 that like the place where everyone can 945 00:33:34,149 --> 00:33:31,519 come together because i feel it's it's 946 00:33:36,789 --> 00:33:34,159 definitely already doing that uh and it 947 00:33:39,190 --> 00:33:36,799 still has room to grow 948 00:33:41,110 --> 00:33:39,200 yeah absolutely that's why um 949 00:33:43,750 --> 00:33:41,120 i'm i'm still a member scum that was 950 00:33:47,190 --> 00:33:43,760 doing uapx because they serve different 951 00:33:49,029 --> 00:33:47,200 purposes and i i do i do wish galileo 952 00:33:51,509 --> 00:33:49,039 project was at the scu conference 953 00:33:53,669 --> 00:33:51,519 because um see that the thing is we do 954 00:33:56,149 --> 00:33:53,679 need to we do need to talk to each other 955 00:33:57,029 --> 00:33:56,159 and scu really is this wonderful 956 00:34:02,950 --> 00:33:57,039 um 957 00:34:04,710 --> 00:34:02,960 individuals and groups together 958 00:34:06,389 --> 00:34:04,720 i'm thrilled the fact that we have like 959 00:34:09,190 --> 00:34:06,399 people from japan 960 00:34:11,030 --> 00:34:09,200 that are coming we have people that are 961 00:34:13,349 --> 00:34:11,040 part of 962 00:34:15,349 --> 00:34:13,359 the isa you know the european space 963 00:34:18,470 --> 00:34:15,359 agency that are coming or are going to 964 00:34:19,909 --> 00:34:18,480 be attending and so i mean again we're 965 00:34:21,750 --> 00:34:19,919 starting to see that there's a footprint 966 00:34:24,310 --> 00:34:21,760 of a whole variety of disciplines and 967 00:34:25,750 --> 00:34:24,320 organizations and people that are that 968 00:34:27,270 --> 00:34:25,760 are treating it seriously that are 969 00:34:28,389 --> 00:34:27,280 actually now wanting to come together 970 00:34:29,669 --> 00:34:28,399 and i'm going to be attending this 971 00:34:31,829 --> 00:34:29,679 meeting by the way 972 00:34:34,710 --> 00:34:31,839 i'm the attendants we're getting i think 973 00:34:36,230 --> 00:34:34,720 when you look at the actual probably 974 00:34:37,669 --> 00:34:36,240 their capabilities and the types of 975 00:34:39,270 --> 00:34:37,679 things that they bring to the table it's 976 00:34:41,589 --> 00:34:39,280 it's very exciting 977 00:34:43,270 --> 00:34:41,599 uh so it's happening 978 00:34:45,109 --> 00:34:43,280 yeah it's very refreshing to hear the 979 00:34:46,950 --> 00:34:45,119 all the collaborative efforts coming 980 00:34:49,349 --> 00:34:46,960 together and not being competitive with 981 00:34:51,270 --> 00:34:49,359 each other and then especially with 982 00:34:53,829 --> 00:34:51,280 overseas organizations as well that's 983 00:34:55,510 --> 00:34:53,839 that's absolutely fantastic now when you 984 00:34:57,349 --> 00:34:55,520 do have these conversations as 985 00:34:59,589 --> 00:34:57,359 scientists and and you're talking about 986 00:35:01,190 --> 00:34:59,599 the data that's been collected 987 00:35:03,589 --> 00:35:01,200 does it ever get to that point where the 988 00:35:05,670 --> 00:35:03,599 conversations become speculative and you 989 00:35:07,750 --> 00:35:05,680 go back over maybe what these things 990 00:35:10,470 --> 00:35:07,760 could possibly be you know does that 991 00:35:11,670 --> 00:35:10,480 conversation still happen of course 992 00:35:13,430 --> 00:35:11,680 yeah absolutely 993 00:35:15,670 --> 00:35:13,440 michael and i are always we'll go back 994 00:35:17,430 --> 00:35:15,680 and forth on because time travel is one 995 00:35:19,430 --> 00:35:17,440 of my favorite topics i'll be like wow 996 00:35:21,589 --> 00:35:19,440 you know it's almost impossible to be 997 00:35:23,270 --> 00:35:21,599 really hard so now we of course we have 998 00:35:25,270 --> 00:35:23,280 the do we these fun speculative 999 00:35:27,190 --> 00:35:25,280 conversations and that's part of what 1000 00:35:29,589 --> 00:35:27,200 makes the this conference that rich 1001 00:35:31,190 --> 00:35:29,599 always works so hard on annually uh 1002 00:35:33,589 --> 00:35:31,200 putting together with with it with the 1003 00:35:36,550 --> 00:35:33,599 board i see what was so wonderful is 1004 00:35:38,950 --> 00:35:36,560 it's a safe space where you can also 1005 00:35:41,910 --> 00:35:38,960 exchange some of the speculative ideas 1006 00:35:45,190 --> 00:35:41,920 without be without fear of being labeled 1007 00:35:46,550 --> 00:35:45,200 uh crazy so that's absolutely part of it 1008 00:35:48,550 --> 00:35:46,560 yeah i think it's also important to 1009 00:35:51,109 --> 00:35:48,560 point out though that that it's not just 1010 00:35:52,230 --> 00:35:51,119 to say what these things are who they 1011 00:35:53,589 --> 00:35:52,240 are where they're coming from when 1012 00:35:55,349 --> 00:35:53,599 they're coming from it is innately 1013 00:35:57,430 --> 00:35:55,359 speculative and we have to be careful 1014 00:35:59,190 --> 00:35:57,440 using that word because we can make 1015 00:36:00,950 --> 00:35:59,200 observations of what these things are 1016 00:36:02,710 --> 00:36:00,960 doing we can look at their flight 1017 00:36:04,710 --> 00:36:02,720 characteristics we can look at the blue 1018 00:36:06,550 --> 00:36:04,720 shift how put off talked about this a 1019 00:36:07,750 --> 00:36:06,560 lot in last year's conference where he's 1020 00:36:09,670 --> 00:36:07,760 talking about 1021 00:36:11,270 --> 00:36:09,680 how they can they can 1022 00:36:12,710 --> 00:36:11,280 blue shift light they can speed up and 1023 00:36:14,710 --> 00:36:12,720 slow down time they have these 1024 00:36:16,870 --> 00:36:14,720 characteristics that we can observe and 1025 00:36:18,230 --> 00:36:16,880 and make logical inferences about why 1026 00:36:19,829 --> 00:36:18,240 they're doing that what they're doing 1027 00:36:22,310 --> 00:36:19,839 how they're doing it and use that 1028 00:36:25,030 --> 00:36:22,320 observational data to make informed 1029 00:36:27,510 --> 00:36:25,040 guesses about other aspects of the 1030 00:36:29,030 --> 00:36:27,520 origin so so i think we we still need to 1031 00:36:31,750 --> 00:36:29,040 connect the dots especially if they are 1032 00:36:33,910 --> 00:36:31,760 from time we're not just making 1033 00:36:35,589 --> 00:36:33,920 speculative guesses about when they come 1034 00:36:36,710 --> 00:36:35,599 from or how they're traveling through 1035 00:36:38,390 --> 00:36:36,720 time but we're observing the 1036 00:36:41,109 --> 00:36:38,400 characteristics of these craft and the 1037 00:36:42,710 --> 00:36:41,119 beans and then using that to 1038 00:36:44,550 --> 00:36:42,720 what i try to use as an abductive 1039 00:36:46,230 --> 00:36:44,560 approach find logic to the best 1040 00:36:47,349 --> 00:36:46,240 inference the best on way of 1041 00:36:48,550 --> 00:36:47,359 understanding with the fewest 1042 00:36:50,870 --> 00:36:48,560 assumptions 1043 00:36:52,069 --> 00:36:50,880 um and and yeah there are ways to 1044 00:36:54,790 --> 00:36:52,079 speculate and things that are 1045 00:36:57,030 --> 00:36:54,800 speculative but i think we need to be 1046 00:36:59,109 --> 00:36:57,040 careful in saying when we start talking 1047 00:37:00,790 --> 00:36:59,119 about their origins it's not innately 1048 00:37:03,030 --> 00:37:00,800 speculative it doesn't mean we're 1049 00:37:04,870 --> 00:37:03,040 speculating we can still 1050 00:37:06,790 --> 00:37:04,880 uh garner information from what's 1051 00:37:09,109 --> 00:37:06,800 observed in an observational study 1052 00:37:10,950 --> 00:37:09,119 context it's not the same type of data 1053 00:37:13,430 --> 00:37:10,960 that we get from one observer going out 1054 00:37:15,430 --> 00:37:13,440 and seeing like sitting 1055 00:37:17,670 --> 00:37:15,440 and watching and in the house and that 1056 00:37:19,109 --> 00:37:17,680 house than that house so it's that it's 1057 00:37:21,109 --> 00:37:19,119 a different type of evidence than what 1058 00:37:23,109 --> 00:37:21,119 we're used to but it's it's still 1059 00:37:25,109 --> 00:37:23,119 eyewitness testimony and we should take 1060 00:37:26,790 --> 00:37:25,119 those seriously as well i mean it's not 1061 00:37:28,870 --> 00:37:26,800 just the cockpit videos anymore we got 1062 00:37:30,630 --> 00:37:28,880 to look at the whole phenomenon 1063 00:37:32,630 --> 00:37:30,640 i agree with michael that you know 1064 00:37:35,270 --> 00:37:32,640 speculative doesn't necessarily mean 1065 00:37:37,230 --> 00:37:35,280 untestable as a scientist i think all 1066 00:37:39,109 --> 00:37:37,240 these hypotheses are testable 1067 00:37:41,670 --> 00:37:39,119 extraterrestrial time travel doesn't 1068 00:37:45,349 --> 00:37:41,680 matter they all make predictions on the 1069 00:37:47,190 --> 00:37:45,359 properties of the objects etc and and 1070 00:37:49,349 --> 00:37:47,200 not perfectly of course this is 1071 00:37:51,349 --> 00:37:49,359 difficult because reproducibility is 1072 00:37:52,710 --> 00:37:51,359 hard right you got to be lucky right 1073 00:37:55,990 --> 00:37:52,720 this isn't something you can do in the 1074 00:37:58,630 --> 00:37:56,000 lab it's an observational a science um 1075 00:38:00,870 --> 00:37:58,640 just astronomy and cosmology where like 1076 00:38:03,270 --> 00:38:00,880 you only have one universe to study and 1077 00:38:05,430 --> 00:38:03,280 so similarly you have to get lucky but i 1078 00:38:08,390 --> 00:38:05,440 do think you can you can while being 1079 00:38:10,870 --> 00:38:08,400 speculative you can still tether your 1080 00:38:12,710 --> 00:38:10,880 speculation to particular hypotheses 1081 00:38:14,310 --> 00:38:12,720 that you can try to prove or disprove so 1082 00:38:16,069 --> 00:38:14,320 i absolutely agree with michael in fact 1083 00:38:17,910 --> 00:38:16,079 his mentioning of the blue shift that's 1084 00:38:20,069 --> 00:38:17,920 one of the reasons why we brought some 1085 00:38:22,230 --> 00:38:20,079 of the equipment we did on uapx and it 1086 00:38:24,710 --> 00:38:22,240 really helped us hit the jackpot to find 1087 00:38:26,390 --> 00:38:24,720 strange anomalies because we listened we 1088 00:38:29,030 --> 00:38:26,400 listened at the last scu conference 1089 00:38:31,510 --> 00:38:29,040 which was as rich said online fully due 1090 00:38:33,670 --> 00:38:31,520 to the pandemic but we listened to hal 1091 00:38:35,430 --> 00:38:33,680 put off eric davis we listened to 1092 00:38:37,270 --> 00:38:35,440 michael we listened to others and we got 1093 00:38:39,030 --> 00:38:37,280 ideas okay we're going to bring such and 1094 00:38:41,109 --> 00:38:39,040 such equipment we're going to do it this 1095 00:38:44,550 --> 00:38:41,119 way because this is how we can test 1096 00:38:46,150 --> 00:38:44,560 these ideas so we've already had the um 1097 00:38:49,030 --> 00:38:46,160 the discussions at the seou conferences 1098 00:38:51,510 --> 00:38:49,040 have borne incredible fruit already by 1099 00:38:53,030 --> 00:38:51,520 pointing us the direction to go and what 1100 00:38:55,190 --> 00:38:53,040 kind of data do we want to take that 1101 00:38:57,109 --> 00:38:55,200 will increase that will go beyond as 1102 00:38:59,910 --> 00:38:57,119 michael said go beyond eyewitness 1103 00:39:01,750 --> 00:38:59,920 testimony and camera images how can we 1104 00:39:03,510 --> 00:39:01,760 do even better than that 1105 00:39:04,790 --> 00:39:03,520 yeah absolutely and and you know it's 1106 00:39:06,710 --> 00:39:04,800 funny because 1107 00:39:09,510 --> 00:39:06,720 we we can't necessarily apply the same 1108 00:39:11,990 --> 00:39:09,520 standards of evidence that we've used in 1109 00:39:14,710 --> 00:39:12,000 science for for decades and there's 1110 00:39:15,750 --> 00:39:14,720 like rich was saying too uh when when we 1111 00:39:17,910 --> 00:39:15,760 come together we have these 1112 00:39:19,829 --> 00:39:17,920 conversations and then things come out 1113 00:39:22,310 --> 00:39:19,839 of that and you make networks you meet 1114 00:39:24,230 --> 00:39:22,320 people you make new collaborative 1115 00:39:26,310 --> 00:39:24,240 connections with people and 1116 00:39:28,150 --> 00:39:26,320 and it's so different from the past 1117 00:39:30,310 --> 00:39:28,160 because when people were trying to do 1118 00:39:32,069 --> 00:39:30,320 this before is the invisible college the 1119 00:39:33,510 --> 00:39:32,079 jacques vale it's jaylen heineck and 1120 00:39:35,990 --> 00:39:33,520 they had to do it behind closed doors 1121 00:39:38,710 --> 00:39:36,000 but now we can openly talk about this 1122 00:39:41,670 --> 00:39:38,720 with each other and then 1123 00:39:43,990 --> 00:39:41,680 not have to fear you know dream ridicule 1124 00:39:45,829 --> 00:39:44,000 retribution from our institutions for 1125 00:39:47,030 --> 00:39:45,839 the most part though there are there are 1126 00:39:49,829 --> 00:39:47,040 exceptions 1127 00:39:50,870 --> 00:39:49,839 um so it's it's an incredible time i 1128 00:39:52,710 --> 00:39:50,880 think where we can have these 1129 00:39:54,670 --> 00:39:52,720 conversations openly and learn from each 1130 00:39:56,550 --> 00:39:54,680 other especially coming together 1131 00:39:58,870 --> 00:39:56,560 interdisciplinary i mean i think it's 1132 00:40:00,870 --> 00:39:58,880 gonna take that we can't understand 1133 00:40:03,030 --> 00:40:00,880 a complex and mysterious phenomenon like 1134 00:40:05,030 --> 00:40:03,040 this from one scientific discipline or 1135 00:40:07,030 --> 00:40:05,040 one viewpoint it's gonna take all of us 1136 00:40:08,710 --> 00:40:07,040 just throwing everything in there like 1137 00:40:12,150 --> 00:40:08,720 matt said putting the puzzles on the 1138 00:40:13,829 --> 00:40:12,160 table and seeing what fits together 1139 00:40:17,270 --> 00:40:13,839 yeah and 1140 00:40:18,950 --> 00:40:17,280 to uh michael's point as well uh the 1141 00:40:19,910 --> 00:40:18,960 you know i mean it's not like you we all 1142 00:40:22,309 --> 00:40:19,920 have to 1143 00:40:24,150 --> 00:40:22,319 have the same opinion or even view on 1144 00:40:27,750 --> 00:40:24,160 this just the fact that we're sharing it 1145 00:40:30,230 --> 00:40:27,760 is is very important uh alexander wendt 1146 00:40:31,750 --> 00:40:30,240 is going to be doing a uh presentation 1147 00:40:33,510 --> 00:40:31,760 that would be 1148 00:40:35,349 --> 00:40:33,520 maybe many people would probably say is 1149 00:40:36,950 --> 00:40:35,359 a little bit counter to the typical 1150 00:40:39,109 --> 00:40:36,960 thinking uh he's going to be talking 1151 00:40:41,190 --> 00:40:39,119 about the fact that you know is actually 1152 00:40:43,670 --> 00:40:41,200 contact real it's almost like the michio 1153 00:40:46,309 --> 00:40:43,680 kaku perspective where it's it's like 1154 00:40:48,710 --> 00:40:46,319 you know it do we really want to let the 1155 00:40:50,710 --> 00:40:48,720 people out there know that we're here 1156 00:40:52,069 --> 00:40:50,720 do we expect them to be all friendly and 1157 00:40:54,309 --> 00:40:52,079 like e.t 1158 00:40:55,990 --> 00:40:54,319 you know do we really want that and so 1159 00:40:58,470 --> 00:40:56,000 he's going to be talking about well is 1160 00:41:01,349 --> 00:40:58,480 actually exploring ufos and and doing 1161 00:41:03,109 --> 00:41:01,359 scientific study is that really a good 1162 00:41:04,790 --> 00:41:03,119 thing for us 1163 00:41:06,870 --> 00:41:04,800 and you know i 1164 00:41:08,630 --> 00:41:06,880 so it's gonna be a different perspective 1165 00:41:10,630 --> 00:41:08,640 and we need to hear that right to 1166 00:41:12,790 --> 00:41:10,640 balance our views balance our 1167 00:41:14,550 --> 00:41:12,800 perspectives and so what we've tried to 1168 00:41:16,390 --> 00:41:14,560 do with the present the present 1169 00:41:18,870 --> 00:41:16,400 presenters we've had at conferences is 1170 00:41:20,550 --> 00:41:18,880 try to get a mix of different views and 1171 00:41:22,790 --> 00:41:20,560 have that come together so that we can 1172 00:41:24,230 --> 00:41:22,800 all have a conversation about it and you 1173 00:41:25,910 --> 00:41:24,240 know you know 1174 00:41:28,309 --> 00:41:25,920 some you know 1175 00:41:30,230 --> 00:41:28,319 matthew talked about you know dark dark 1176 00:41:32,069 --> 00:41:30,240 energy and and how that that wow that 1177 00:41:33,430 --> 00:41:32,079 just opened up doors for me in terms of 1178 00:41:34,870 --> 00:41:33,440 thinking like well that could be you 1179 00:41:36,870 --> 00:41:34,880 know potentially how that they're using 1180 00:41:39,510 --> 00:41:36,880 it right it's great let's go check into 1181 00:41:41,589 --> 00:41:39,520 that you know and and hearing about time 1182 00:41:43,750 --> 00:41:41,599 travel in the context of you know the 1183 00:41:45,910 --> 00:41:43,760 study that michael masters has done 1184 00:41:47,829 --> 00:41:45,920 in the context of just looking at while 1185 00:41:49,589 --> 00:41:47,839 the beings that are described 1186 00:41:51,829 --> 00:41:49,599 are bipedal they're they're very much 1187 00:41:53,910 --> 00:41:51,839 like us to arms to you know all this 1188 00:41:56,390 --> 00:41:53,920 other stuff wow that's an interesting 1189 00:41:58,230 --> 00:41:56,400 perspective like you know are they human 1190 00:42:00,950 --> 00:41:58,240 you know and so you start to have those 1191 00:42:02,550 --> 00:42:00,960 kind of like perspectives that that you 1192 00:42:04,710 --> 00:42:02,560 maybe you want to go off on and think 1193 00:42:05,430 --> 00:42:04,720 about yeah and a little bit differently 1194 00:42:06,790 --> 00:42:05,440 right 1195 00:42:09,750 --> 00:42:06,800 and of course we 1196 00:42:12,309 --> 00:42:09,760 so it's good i think it's important also 1197 00:42:14,390 --> 00:42:12,319 um i have to stress that and my 1198 00:42:16,550 --> 00:42:14,400 colleague kevin who just wrote 1199 00:42:18,390 --> 00:42:16,560 um a medium essay about this that's 1200 00:42:21,510 --> 00:42:18,400 getting a lot of reads is that is 1201 00:42:22,710 --> 00:42:21,520 humility is so important i think you 1202 00:42:24,390 --> 00:42:22,720 like you said rich different 1203 00:42:26,950 --> 00:42:24,400 perspectives i think we have to let the 1204 00:42:29,349 --> 00:42:26,960 truth and facts speak for themselves i 1205 00:42:31,270 --> 00:42:29,359 don't care if it's extraterrestrials i 1206 00:42:32,870 --> 00:42:31,280 don't care if michael's right and time 1207 00:42:34,390 --> 00:42:32,880 travels for the future that'd be great 1208 00:42:36,309 --> 00:42:34,400 because then that means that probably 1209 00:42:37,750 --> 00:42:36,319 means we survived you know the nuclear 1210 00:42:40,710 --> 00:42:37,760 war putin's about to start you know 1211 00:42:41,829 --> 00:42:40,720 that's good news and so like i i i as a 1212 00:42:45,030 --> 00:42:41,839 scientist 1213 00:42:47,990 --> 00:42:45,040 i want to be proven wrong with my ideas 1214 00:42:50,870 --> 00:42:48,000 because that keeps me honest and so i 1215 00:42:52,790 --> 00:42:50,880 don't care if the vast majority are 1216 00:42:54,710 --> 00:42:52,800 atmospheric phenomena and are not you 1217 00:42:56,710 --> 00:42:54,720 know intelligent crap 1218 00:42:58,950 --> 00:42:56,720 wherever the truth leads us wherever the 1219 00:43:01,430 --> 00:42:58,960 facts lead us is what's important and 1220 00:43:03,270 --> 00:43:01,440 that's why and it's totally okay for 1221 00:43:05,349 --> 00:43:03,280 everyone to have their favorite pet 1222 00:43:07,190 --> 00:43:05,359 hypothesis extra dimensional 1223 00:43:10,390 --> 00:43:07,200 interdimensional extra stress that's 1224 00:43:13,510 --> 00:43:10,400 fine as long as we're not married to it 1225 00:43:15,349 --> 00:43:13,520 when the facts say otherwise that's yeah 1226 00:43:17,430 --> 00:43:15,359 and it's hard you see it in academia as 1227 00:43:19,349 --> 00:43:17,440 well i mean in paleoanthropology 1228 00:43:22,150 --> 00:43:19,359 especially there's so much 1229 00:43:24,069 --> 00:43:22,160 debate and and infighting about whether 1230 00:43:25,750 --> 00:43:24,079 this should be a new species or whether 1231 00:43:27,030 --> 00:43:25,760 it's morphologically similar enough to 1232 00:43:28,950 --> 00:43:27,040 these that we should group it in with 1233 00:43:31,589 --> 00:43:28,960 those and we've been going at it for 1234 00:43:33,750 --> 00:43:31,599 decades about these little nuances and 1235 00:43:36,069 --> 00:43:33,760 things and and you see dogma you see 1236 00:43:37,750 --> 00:43:36,079 people adhering to this ideology that 1237 00:43:40,390 --> 00:43:37,760 they embrace and they think is right no 1238 00:43:42,309 --> 00:43:40,400 matter what i mean but i think the ufo 1239 00:43:44,870 --> 00:43:42,319 community and especially in science it's 1240 00:43:46,870 --> 00:43:44,880 more ripe for that same type of thing 1241 00:43:49,270 --> 00:43:46,880 because there's so many unknowns it's 1242 00:43:51,109 --> 00:43:49,280 easy to jump on something and look for 1243 00:43:53,990 --> 00:43:51,119 you know things that back it up 1244 00:43:57,270 --> 00:43:54,000 confirmation by selection bias but i i 1245 00:44:00,069 --> 00:43:57,280 think as scientists if if we're really 1246 00:44:03,030 --> 00:44:00,079 focused on learning what this is we need 1247 00:44:04,390 --> 00:44:03,040 to recognize any of those biases and get 1248 00:44:06,309 --> 00:44:04,400 rid of those leave them at the door and 1249 00:44:08,550 --> 00:44:06,319 just open our minds to whatever this 1250 00:44:09,829 --> 00:44:08,560 might be 1251 00:44:12,069 --> 00:44:09,839 yeah absolutely 1252 00:44:13,190 --> 00:44:12,079 the technology advances that we're going 1253 00:44:14,790 --> 00:44:13,200 through our guy i think are going to 1254 00:44:16,950 --> 00:44:14,800 help us because that's going to give us 1255 00:44:19,030 --> 00:44:16,960 some other you know and we've just so 1256 00:44:21,589 --> 00:44:19,040 badly needed that i go back to my early 1257 00:44:23,990 --> 00:44:21,599 days uh even with the project blue book 1258 00:44:25,270 --> 00:44:24,000 you know and all that whole time period 1259 00:44:26,790 --> 00:44:25,280 you know i didn't even have something 1260 00:44:28,309 --> 00:44:26,800 like a tape recorder that i could go out 1261 00:44:29,910 --> 00:44:28,319 with at that time that was before that 1262 00:44:31,829 --> 00:44:29,920 you know i was going out i was going out 1263 00:44:33,750 --> 00:44:31,839 and investigating cases where people i 1264 00:44:35,670 --> 00:44:33,760 had to hand them a piece of paper and 1265 00:44:38,150 --> 00:44:35,680 and you know colored crayon or something 1266 00:44:40,950 --> 00:44:38,160 like that and say draw your picture of 1267 00:44:43,190 --> 00:44:40,960 what you saw right you know i mean 1268 00:44:45,589 --> 00:44:43,200 that's the kind of tools that i had back 1269 00:44:47,270 --> 00:44:45,599 when i was doing investigations right 1270 00:44:49,349 --> 00:44:47,280 and you think about that in the context 1271 00:44:51,030 --> 00:44:49,359 of well did the air force maybe have 1272 00:44:52,470 --> 00:44:51,040 that because they sent out investigators 1273 00:44:54,470 --> 00:44:52,480 like me that were sitting there doing 1274 00:44:55,829 --> 00:44:54,480 the same thing and then maybe had a form 1275 00:44:56,550 --> 00:44:55,839 and that's all they did they filled it 1276 00:44:58,870 --> 00:44:56,560 out 1277 00:45:00,630 --> 00:44:58,880 but now we've moved over to a completely 1278 00:45:02,950 --> 00:45:00,640 you know where we've got multi-sensory 1279 00:45:05,589 --> 00:45:02,960 kinds of data all different types of 1280 00:45:07,510 --> 00:45:05,599 data that we can use technology tools 1281 00:45:09,750 --> 00:45:07,520 that are now going to give science a 1282 00:45:12,550 --> 00:45:09,760 little bit more information than this 1283 00:45:13,990 --> 00:45:12,560 crude drawing with a crayon right you 1284 00:45:16,390 --> 00:45:14,000 know i mean 1285 00:45:18,069 --> 00:45:16,400 and so you know i'm excited about the 1286 00:45:20,470 --> 00:45:18,079 time that we're in right now and i'm 1287 00:45:22,069 --> 00:45:20,480 thinking that man the potential here is 1288 00:45:23,589 --> 00:45:22,079 that we're going to have maybe answers 1289 00:45:25,430 --> 00:45:23,599 within 1290 00:45:27,190 --> 00:45:25,440 i don't know if in my lifetime but maybe 1291 00:45:29,190 --> 00:45:27,200 within maybe a couple decades or 1292 00:45:30,950 --> 00:45:29,200 something anyway 1293 00:45:32,790 --> 00:45:30,960 yeah that'd be awesome 1294 00:45:34,790 --> 00:45:32,800 uh am i right in saying rich that in the 1295 00:45:37,270 --> 00:45:34,800 last few months the seo opened up the 1296 00:45:40,470 --> 00:45:37,280 reporting uh system through through the 1297 00:45:41,510 --> 00:45:40,480 seou website for public sightings and 1298 00:45:42,790 --> 00:45:41,520 things 1299 00:45:44,390 --> 00:45:42,800 yeah so 1300 00:45:46,790 --> 00:45:44,400 let me let me 1301 00:45:48,470 --> 00:45:46,800 talk about that for a second we do have 1302 00:45:51,190 --> 00:45:48,480 a group of people that we're looking to 1303 00:45:54,470 --> 00:45:51,200 do investigations with we're not looking 1304 00:45:56,309 --> 00:45:54,480 to do though uh you know mufon's job 1305 00:45:58,550 --> 00:45:56,319 we're not trying to replace what mufon 1306 00:46:01,190 --> 00:45:58,560 does or anything of that nature 1307 00:46:05,190 --> 00:46:01,200 we don't we're we're looking for the the 1308 00:46:07,430 --> 00:46:05,200 reports with critical credible data or 1309 00:46:10,390 --> 00:46:07,440 information or or some of the better 1310 00:46:12,150 --> 00:46:10,400 cases if you would sure do the ones that 1311 00:46:14,470 --> 00:46:12,160 we can pass off the science that would 1312 00:46:16,790 --> 00:46:14,480 be helpful so in other words if you've 1313 00:46:18,390 --> 00:46:16,800 got like let's say you've got like a 1314 00:46:20,309 --> 00:46:18,400 sighting that was in a given area and 1315 00:46:22,309 --> 00:46:20,319 you've got three people who took video 1316 00:46:24,550 --> 00:46:22,319 of it from different angles you might be 1317 00:46:26,630 --> 00:46:24,560 able to triangulate where that's at you 1318 00:46:28,630 --> 00:46:26,640 know or if they had some other kinds of 1319 00:46:30,230 --> 00:46:28,640 tools like air traffic controllers maybe 1320 00:46:32,470 --> 00:46:30,240 in the area might have also witnessed it 1321 00:46:35,430 --> 00:46:32,480 right and they picked it up on radar so 1322 00:46:38,069 --> 00:46:35,440 you could add to that some actual 1323 00:46:40,390 --> 00:46:38,079 data you know and start to look at it 1324 00:46:44,230 --> 00:46:40,400 again that we can go with as opposed to 1325 00:46:47,190 --> 00:46:44,240 just an anecdotal you know story that 1326 00:46:49,510 --> 00:46:47,200 somebody's coming up with which you know 1327 00:46:52,309 --> 00:46:49,520 is hard to be able to determine truth 1328 00:46:53,910 --> 00:46:52,319 and fact from that right because humans 1329 00:46:57,910 --> 00:46:53,920 are fallible 1330 00:46:59,510 --> 00:46:57,920 as even as observers you know and so 1331 00:47:02,470 --> 00:46:59,520 that's what we're looking for and that's 1332 00:47:05,990 --> 00:47:02,480 the kind of reports that we want to get 1333 00:47:07,990 --> 00:47:06,000 not the you know i i took a picture and 1334 00:47:09,750 --> 00:47:08,000 there's a i pointed it toward the sun 1335 00:47:12,069 --> 00:47:09,760 and i have a little blue orb down there 1336 00:47:15,109 --> 00:47:12,079 which is basically a lens reflection 1337 00:47:18,470 --> 00:47:16,390 now um 1338 00:47:20,470 --> 00:47:18,480 i think uh a conversation that's uh that 1339 00:47:22,710 --> 00:47:20,480 always crops up though that i certainly 1340 00:47:24,790 --> 00:47:22,720 see a lot but we don't necessarily get a 1341 00:47:27,109 --> 00:47:24,800 lot of information on is 1342 00:47:28,790 --> 00:47:27,119 materials meta materials and things like 1343 00:47:30,710 --> 00:47:28,800 that we know people like gary nolan 1344 00:47:32,870 --> 00:47:30,720 speak about it and we know in the past 1345 00:47:35,109 --> 00:47:32,880 jacques vallee has as well but 1346 00:47:37,510 --> 00:47:35,119 do gentlemen have any conversations 1347 00:47:39,349 --> 00:47:37,520 information or does that conversation 1348 00:47:41,910 --> 00:47:39,359 come up more in the scientific community 1349 00:47:44,069 --> 00:47:41,920 than maybe in the public realm 1350 00:47:45,829 --> 00:47:44,079 well the that would be you know if we 1351 00:47:47,589 --> 00:47:45,839 had materials that we could test and 1352 00:47:50,069 --> 00:47:47,599 show have you know for example an 1353 00:47:52,230 --> 00:47:50,079 isotopic content that's not that's not 1354 00:47:54,549 --> 00:47:52,240 terrestrial that's really that's a huge 1355 00:47:56,790 --> 00:47:54,559 smoking gun you always hear about these 1356 00:47:58,390 --> 00:47:56,800 claims but the thing is 1357 00:48:00,230 --> 00:47:58,400 is it's um 1358 00:48:02,710 --> 00:48:00,240 again not seeing anything published i 1359 00:48:04,549 --> 00:48:02,720 think gary noland though and and many of 1360 00:48:06,470 --> 00:48:04,559 uh is working hard on this as well as 1361 00:48:08,870 --> 00:48:06,480 jack vale and others really look forward 1362 00:48:11,270 --> 00:48:08,880 to some results that are really solid 1363 00:48:14,710 --> 00:48:11,280 that say here's a piece of here's some 1364 00:48:18,230 --> 00:48:14,720 piece of some stuff and either it has um 1365 00:48:20,710 --> 00:48:18,240 isotopic content that doesn't match uh 1366 00:48:22,230 --> 00:48:20,720 doesn't match the earth moon system or 1367 00:48:25,109 --> 00:48:22,240 and slash or 1368 00:48:26,950 --> 00:48:25,119 it's got like materials manufactured to 1369 00:48:29,349 --> 00:48:26,960 scale smaller than we can you know on 1370 00:48:31,270 --> 00:48:29,359 some sort of for nanoscale that we find 1371 00:48:33,430 --> 00:48:31,280 that's that's really the smoking gun i 1372 00:48:35,190 --> 00:48:33,440 was really disappointed during the 1373 00:48:38,950 --> 00:48:35,200 hearing this dude came up and they're 1374 00:48:41,910 --> 00:48:39,910 well 1375 00:48:42,950 --> 00:48:41,920 i hope that's wrong 1376 00:48:44,549 --> 00:48:42,960 because that would be that would be 1377 00:48:46,630 --> 00:48:44,559 great at the same time i've always been 1378 00:48:48,390 --> 00:48:46,640 really really skeptical about wreckage 1379 00:48:51,750 --> 00:48:48,400 because the way um 1380 00:48:53,190 --> 00:48:51,760 actually uh um a a a friend of mine bob 1381 00:48:54,470 --> 00:48:53,200 put it is um 1382 00:48:57,270 --> 00:48:54,480 if they're so advanced why are they 1383 00:48:58,790 --> 00:48:57,280 always crashing so it's kind of bizarre 1384 00:49:01,109 --> 00:48:58,800 to think about the possibility of 1385 00:49:03,030 --> 00:49:01,119 wreckage because if they're so advanced 1386 00:49:04,390 --> 00:49:03,040 that shouldn't be happening but i'm 1387 00:49:06,390 --> 00:49:04,400 definitely open to the possibility 1388 00:49:08,390 --> 00:49:06,400 especially because that's way better 1389 00:49:10,549 --> 00:49:08,400 than even than even multiple sensors 1390 00:49:13,109 --> 00:49:10,559 like rich said like radar and stuff 1391 00:49:15,430 --> 00:49:13,119 if i have a hunk of material i can test 1392 00:49:17,829 --> 00:49:15,440 in the lab and prove it's not of this 1393 00:49:20,309 --> 00:49:17,839 earth with current technology that's it 1394 00:49:23,750 --> 00:49:20,319 that's game over that shuts up every 1395 00:49:26,230 --> 00:49:23,760 skeptic debunker that's the gat is it 1396 00:49:29,109 --> 00:49:26,240 that's the holy grail so i'm open to the 1397 00:49:31,510 --> 00:49:29,119 possibility and i would love 1398 00:49:32,790 --> 00:49:31,520 love it if we had something like that 1399 00:49:34,870 --> 00:49:32,800 yeah 1400 00:49:36,710 --> 00:49:34,880 i think that the uh in the in the 1401 00:49:38,470 --> 00:49:36,720 context of the military world let me 1402 00:49:40,470 --> 00:49:38,480 just speak for that because you know 1403 00:49:42,549 --> 00:49:40,480 basically what happens in a lot of the 1404 00:49:44,870 --> 00:49:42,559 cases of any material or anything that 1405 00:49:47,109 --> 00:49:44,880 falls out of the sky it does go into the 1406 00:49:49,109 --> 00:49:47,119 military world and the military world 1407 00:49:51,349 --> 00:49:49,119 has specific routes that it passes 1408 00:49:53,430 --> 00:49:51,359 things to so like for example here in 1409 00:49:55,190 --> 00:49:53,440 huntsville we have a mystic missile and 1410 00:49:57,750 --> 00:49:55,200 space intelligence center 1411 00:49:59,030 --> 00:49:57,760 so if you get a gun from the iraqis or 1412 00:50:00,230 --> 00:49:59,040 something like that guess where it's 1413 00:50:01,589 --> 00:50:00,240 going to go it's going to go here you're 1414 00:50:03,430 --> 00:50:01,599 going to have scientists that are up 1415 00:50:05,430 --> 00:50:03,440 there doing a re-engineering of it and 1416 00:50:07,910 --> 00:50:05,440 it'll stay within the military world as 1417 00:50:09,910 --> 00:50:07,920 to michael's point earlier about the 1418 00:50:11,510 --> 00:50:09,920 fact that this somehow stays in the 1419 00:50:14,710 --> 00:50:11,520 military world and doesn't get out to 1420 00:50:16,470 --> 00:50:14,720 the scientific world so uh i think i'll 1421 00:50:18,150 --> 00:50:16,480 point to the fact that there's 1422 00:50:20,309 --> 00:50:18,160 you know there's been reports like on 1423 00:50:23,349 --> 00:50:20,319 the scale of about 200 crashes that have 1424 00:50:24,950 --> 00:50:23,359 happened over throughout the world uh i 1425 00:50:27,190 --> 00:50:24,960 worked with 1426 00:50:29,270 --> 00:50:27,200 len springfield on and he was working on 1427 00:50:30,549 --> 00:50:29,280 these crash retrieval types of things 1428 00:50:32,549 --> 00:50:30,559 but 1429 00:50:35,109 --> 00:50:32,559 what i'm going to say to you is that 1430 00:50:37,990 --> 00:50:35,119 anything that that the military does fit 1431 00:50:40,069 --> 00:50:38,000 or picks up is within the military and 1432 00:50:41,589 --> 00:50:40,079 then it's classified beyond anything 1433 00:50:44,230 --> 00:50:41,599 you've ever known 1434 00:50:46,549 --> 00:50:44,240 and you'll never know about it right so 1435 00:50:49,030 --> 00:50:46,559 it's quite feasible that within the 1436 00:50:50,710 --> 00:50:49,040 realm of the military then it's been 1437 00:50:53,349 --> 00:50:50,720 documented that they've been out at many 1438 00:50:56,549 --> 00:50:53,359 sites the kecksburg crash that took 1439 00:50:59,510 --> 00:50:56,559 place with military right allegedly 1440 00:51:01,349 --> 00:50:59,520 roswell was all picked up and 1441 00:51:04,069 --> 00:51:01,359 by military right 1442 00:51:06,870 --> 00:51:04,079 so i think that that could potentially 1443 00:51:10,069 --> 00:51:06,880 exist within the military world 1444 00:51:11,910 --> 00:51:10,079 it's not necessarily as known to us and 1445 00:51:12,950 --> 00:51:11,920 i'm thrilled with the fact that gary 1446 00:51:15,589 --> 00:51:12,960 nolan 1447 00:51:16,950 --> 00:51:15,599 at least has some material from 1448 00:51:19,030 --> 00:51:16,960 somewhere 1449 00:51:20,790 --> 00:51:19,040 that he can work with but the problems 1450 00:51:23,270 --> 00:51:20,800 we have with material 1451 00:51:26,470 --> 00:51:23,280 is that we don't know necessarily the 1452 00:51:29,349 --> 00:51:26,480 chain of custody and where it came from 1453 00:51:31,510 --> 00:51:29,359 and those types of things lead into 1454 00:51:32,549 --> 00:51:31,520 problems for scientific research and 1455 00:51:34,309 --> 00:51:32,559 study 1456 00:51:36,309 --> 00:51:34,319 because if you don't have that that 1457 00:51:37,910 --> 00:51:36,319 chain of evidence or where it was passed 1458 00:51:39,910 --> 00:51:37,920 or where it came from 1459 00:51:40,710 --> 00:51:39,920 then you know who's to say where it's 1460 00:51:42,150 --> 00:51:40,720 from 1461 00:51:44,069 --> 00:51:42,160 and that's always going to be a question 1462 00:51:45,589 --> 00:51:44,079 mark with the rest of the world in terms 1463 00:51:46,630 --> 00:51:45,599 of trying to figure out 1464 00:51:51,990 --> 00:51:46,640 you know 1465 00:51:53,670 --> 00:51:52,000 does doesn't have any uh unearthly types 1466 00:51:55,030 --> 00:51:53,680 of material 1467 00:51:56,710 --> 00:51:55,040 uh 1468 00:51:59,990 --> 00:51:56,720 types of situations 1469 00:52:01,510 --> 00:52:00,000 we do have within seu besides the fact 1470 00:52:03,990 --> 00:52:01,520 that you know that there's people like 1471 00:52:06,549 --> 00:52:04,000 you know gary nolan out there but we do 1472 00:52:08,950 --> 00:52:06,559 have other people who have done lab work 1473 00:52:10,950 --> 00:52:08,960 uh the delphos kansas case for example 1474 00:52:11,750 --> 00:52:10,960 the soil samples that were taken from 1475 00:52:13,990 --> 00:52:11,760 that 1476 00:52:15,750 --> 00:52:14,000 were analyzed by phyllis buttinger and a 1477 00:52:18,150 --> 00:52:15,760 number of people that actually are in 1478 00:52:20,549 --> 00:52:18,160 scu and they did a tremendous amount of 1479 00:52:22,870 --> 00:52:20,559 work on those types of debris those 1480 00:52:24,549 --> 00:52:22,880 these effects if you would which showed 1481 00:52:26,870 --> 00:52:24,559 that there was definitely something that 1482 00:52:29,270 --> 00:52:26,880 was very profound there right 1483 00:52:32,390 --> 00:52:29,280 uh so we can get that type of 1484 00:52:34,710 --> 00:52:32,400 information uh from at least some of the 1485 00:52:37,670 --> 00:52:34,720 effects to the soil and we need to keep 1486 00:52:39,990 --> 00:52:37,680 having that and that's areas where we as 1487 00:52:41,109 --> 00:52:40,000 a organization are continuing to strive 1488 00:52:43,270 --> 00:52:41,119 to improve 1489 00:52:45,190 --> 00:52:43,280 how we do that get labs on board where 1490 00:52:46,630 --> 00:52:45,200 we're going to send things over and that 1491 00:52:48,790 --> 00:52:46,640 type of thing 1492 00:52:50,309 --> 00:52:48,800 excellent yeah yeah so sometimes it 1493 00:52:52,309 --> 00:52:50,319 doesn't have to be the actual materials 1494 00:52:55,109 --> 00:52:52,319 it could be traces 1495 00:52:55,990 --> 00:52:55,119 uh or or radiation or things like that 1496 00:52:58,069 --> 00:52:56,000 that can 1497 00:52:59,510 --> 00:52:58,079 yes yeah i think yeah i mean i might 1498 00:53:00,950 --> 00:52:59,520 personally probably forget that and all 1499 00:53:02,390 --> 00:53:00,960 you can think about is a solid or 1500 00:53:04,549 --> 00:53:02,400 something but yeah 1501 00:53:06,470 --> 00:53:04,559 you know a biological sample would be 1502 00:53:08,870 --> 00:53:06,480 great too i'd love to have like an 1503 00:53:10,630 --> 00:53:08,880 alien's leg or something i mean i even 1504 00:53:12,470 --> 00:53:10,640 take a toe i don't 1505 00:53:14,790 --> 00:53:12,480 i just give me something man it's always 1506 00:53:18,710 --> 00:53:14,800 about these materials that come from the 1507 00:53:20,150 --> 00:53:18,720 ship but that yeah i'd i'd be over the 1508 00:53:21,910 --> 00:53:20,160 the moon if there was some sort of 1509 00:53:23,990 --> 00:53:21,920 biological sample 1510 00:53:26,150 --> 00:53:24,000 what's amazing to me is that you know 1511 00:53:28,309 --> 00:53:26,160 don't they have dna i mean it seemed 1512 00:53:29,910 --> 00:53:28,319 like you would find dna trace evidence 1513 00:53:32,309 --> 00:53:29,920 somewhere where they were walking around 1514 00:53:33,990 --> 00:53:32,319 some sort of skin sample or something 1515 00:53:35,910 --> 00:53:34,000 yeah i mean we haven't been looking for 1516 00:53:37,430 --> 00:53:35,920 it though either we don't treat it like 1517 00:53:39,670 --> 00:53:37,440 a crime scene 1518 00:53:41,349 --> 00:53:39,680 exactly if we did yeah if we treated it 1519 00:53:42,790 --> 00:53:41,359 like a forensic crime scene maybe we'd 1520 00:53:44,150 --> 00:53:42,800 find i mean they seemingly don't have 1521 00:53:46,069 --> 00:53:44,160 hair at least 1522 00:53:49,030 --> 00:53:46,079 yeah the majority of them but yeah there 1523 00:53:50,069 --> 00:53:49,040 might be something else and 1524 00:53:51,750 --> 00:53:50,079 that's the thing we just need to change 1525 00:53:53,750 --> 00:53:51,760 the way we conceptualize this and change 1526 00:53:56,549 --> 00:53:53,760 the way we conceptualize evidence and 1527 00:53:58,390 --> 00:53:56,559 look for things that you know fit fit 1528 00:54:00,630 --> 00:53:58,400 the description of of abductions or 1529 00:54:02,710 --> 00:54:00,640 close encounters or sightings and then 1530 00:54:04,950 --> 00:54:02,720 try to see maybe what else we could get 1531 00:54:06,150 --> 00:54:04,960 from it um yeah that's a great idea i'm 1532 00:54:07,910 --> 00:54:06,160 gonna i'm gonna go into the next 1533 00:54:10,309 --> 00:54:07,920 abduction with some rubber gloves and 1534 00:54:12,309 --> 00:54:10,319 some tweezers and try to find something 1535 00:54:14,309 --> 00:54:12,319 yeah well mr cackle always says you get 1536 00:54:16,309 --> 00:54:14,319 abducted steal something i think you 1537 00:54:17,750 --> 00:54:16,319 forgot the fact that people get stripped 1538 00:54:19,589 --> 00:54:17,760 naked though there's nothing yeah and 1539 00:54:21,030 --> 00:54:19,599 tony of the us boys tried to steal a 1540 00:54:22,710 --> 00:54:21,040 clock when he was abducted and they 1541 00:54:24,630 --> 00:54:22,720 caught him and got all pissed off about 1542 00:54:26,790 --> 00:54:24,640 it yeah yeah 1543 00:54:28,790 --> 00:54:26,800 the clock yeah i said he tried to steal 1544 00:54:31,349 --> 00:54:28,800 what what he assumed was a clock 1545 00:54:33,829 --> 00:54:31,359 that had like the the all the little 1546 00:54:36,230 --> 00:54:33,839 dashes were in the same places 1547 00:54:38,069 --> 00:54:36,240 i always get a kick out of the the the 1548 00:54:39,589 --> 00:54:38,079 the cases there that where they're in 1549 00:54:41,750 --> 00:54:39,599 their bed and they're somehow like 1550 00:54:43,349 --> 00:54:41,760 moving through walls you know it's like 1551 00:54:45,030 --> 00:54:43,359 well i wonder if they came back with a 1552 00:54:45,830 --> 00:54:45,040 cloth would they be able to get that 1553 00:54:50,549 --> 00:54:45,840 through the wall 1554 00:54:52,150 --> 00:54:50,559 [Laughter] 1555 00:54:54,150 --> 00:54:52,160 yeah no there was a there was a woman 1556 00:54:56,069 --> 00:54:54,160 amy rylance in australia who was 1557 00:54:57,750 --> 00:54:56,079 abducted through a window and she was 1558 00:54:59,190 --> 00:54:57,760 being carried out her friend petra saw 1559 00:55:01,190 --> 00:54:59,200 her being carried out the window with 1560 00:55:02,950 --> 00:55:01,200 the contents of the coffee table 1561 00:55:04,710 --> 00:55:02,960 petra went through the window and all 1562 00:55:07,109 --> 00:55:04,720 the contents of the coffee table fell to 1563 00:55:08,789 --> 00:55:07,119 the floor well there we go kind of kind 1564 00:55:10,789 --> 00:55:08,799 of indicates maybe you can't take the 1565 00:55:12,309 --> 00:55:10,799 other stuff too i mean nobody knows how 1566 00:55:13,109 --> 00:55:12,319 the hell they do this in the first place 1567 00:55:14,710 --> 00:55:13,119 like 1568 00:55:16,390 --> 00:55:14,720 people go through 1569 00:55:18,309 --> 00:55:16,400 solid matter but 1570 00:55:19,910 --> 00:55:18,319 um yeah that might be some indication 1571 00:55:22,470 --> 00:55:19,920 that you can't necessarily take things 1572 00:55:28,230 --> 00:55:25,510 now michael just theoretically if 1573 00:55:30,789 --> 00:55:28,240 if we found one of these time travelers 1574 00:55:33,030 --> 00:55:30,799 to be or look exactly like we do as 1575 00:55:34,630 --> 00:55:33,040 human would that surprise you would you 1576 00:55:37,270 --> 00:55:34,640 have expected them to have evolved and 1577 00:55:40,069 --> 00:55:37,280 looked to look different 1578 00:55:41,910 --> 00:55:40,079 no in fact in my new book uh they i 1579 00:55:43,750 --> 00:55:41,920 think it's 1580 00:55:45,270 --> 00:55:43,760 probably in about a week and a half i 1581 00:55:47,910 --> 00:55:45,280 think it'll publish but the first two 1582 00:55:50,950 --> 00:55:47,920 case studies the first one in particular 1583 00:55:54,230 --> 00:55:50,960 it's an entirely modern human looking 1584 00:55:56,230 --> 00:55:54,240 individual he spoke vocally um 1585 00:55:58,470 --> 00:55:56,240 wore the one piece bodysuit came out of 1586 00:56:00,549 --> 00:55:58,480 the same silvery metallic craft it was 1587 00:56:02,390 --> 00:56:00,559 it was actually right here in montana uh 1588 00:56:04,390 --> 00:56:02,400 joan byrd talks about it 1589 00:56:07,589 --> 00:56:04,400 in more detail in her book monta montana 1590 00:56:09,190 --> 00:56:07,599 ufos but he he was getting water out of 1591 00:56:10,950 --> 00:56:09,200 the sluice stream there was a miner up 1592 00:56:12,870 --> 00:56:10,960 there who heard the the low buzzing 1593 00:56:14,630 --> 00:56:12,880 sound went around the corner was like oh 1594 00:56:16,870 --> 00:56:14,640 it's this guy walks out says can we take 1595 00:56:18,470 --> 00:56:16,880 some water we extract the hydrogen as 1596 00:56:21,270 --> 00:56:18,480 our fuel source gives them a tour of the 1597 00:56:23,510 --> 00:56:21,280 ship he writes uh senator john glenn 1598 00:56:25,670 --> 00:56:23,520 former astronaut about this with great 1599 00:56:27,349 --> 00:56:25,680 detail about everything he learned about 1600 00:56:29,109 --> 00:56:27,359 the inner workings the mechanics of this 1601 00:56:31,030 --> 00:56:29,119 ship which he didn't have a full grasp 1602 00:56:31,910 --> 00:56:31,040 on as a a minor 1603 00:56:34,870 --> 00:56:31,920 um 1604 00:56:36,549 --> 00:56:34,880 but no it indicated to me and many other 1605 00:56:39,589 --> 00:56:36,559 cases i've come across like this in 1606 00:56:41,430 --> 00:56:39,599 researching this new work is that 1607 00:56:44,150 --> 00:56:41,440 if they are time travelers and i'll put 1608 00:56:45,750 --> 00:56:44,160 that out there as if this is the case it 1609 00:56:47,670 --> 00:56:45,760 indicates that we're going to be doing 1610 00:56:49,109 --> 00:56:47,680 it much sooner than i previously thought 1611 00:56:51,589 --> 00:56:49,119 when i wrote the first book it mostly 1612 00:56:53,670 --> 00:56:51,599 focused on the grays and the derived 1613 00:56:55,430 --> 00:56:53,680 synapomorphic characteristics where they 1614 00:56:57,270 --> 00:56:55,440 have the bigger heads smaller face 1615 00:56:59,510 --> 00:56:57,280 bigger eyes all these traits we'd expect 1616 00:57:01,190 --> 00:56:59,520 to see tens of thousands of years in the 1617 00:57:02,789 --> 00:57:01,200 future but then you have these cases 1618 00:57:05,349 --> 00:57:02,799 where it's an entirely 1619 00:57:07,270 --> 00:57:05,359 modern looking person just like us so i 1620 00:57:09,030 --> 00:57:07,280 don't know i've kind of kind of revised 1621 00:57:10,950 --> 00:57:09,040 my understanding of 1622 00:57:12,789 --> 00:57:10,960 this or at least the way i conceptualize 1623 00:57:14,309 --> 00:57:12,799 it where it's not just a prediction 1624 00:57:16,230 --> 00:57:14,319 about our long-term 1625 00:57:18,230 --> 00:57:16,240 uh evolutionary not just physical but 1626 00:57:20,470 --> 00:57:18,240 cultural and technological evolution but 1627 00:57:22,630 --> 00:57:20,480 it may actually occur sooner than sooner 1628 00:57:24,710 --> 00:57:22,640 than later i just wish someone this 1629 00:57:26,230 --> 00:57:24,720 would happen again in the smartphone era 1630 00:57:29,109 --> 00:57:26,240 i want something like so here's the 1631 00:57:30,950 --> 00:57:29,119 spaceship and like yeah i know we that's 1632 00:57:33,510 --> 00:57:30,960 really what we need because otherwise 1633 00:57:35,349 --> 00:57:33,520 there will always be a way to say it was 1634 00:57:37,030 --> 00:57:35,359 imagined it never happened yeah 1635 00:57:39,030 --> 00:57:37,040 absolutely yeah and i and i talk about 1636 00:57:40,390 --> 00:57:39,040 that a lot in the book you know what how 1637 00:57:43,829 --> 00:57:40,400 do we 1638 00:57:46,150 --> 00:57:43,839 there's things that can be corroborated 1639 00:57:48,150 --> 00:57:46,160 for instance amy ryland's been taken out 1640 00:57:49,750 --> 00:57:48,160 the window that was seen by her friend 1641 00:57:52,230 --> 00:57:49,760 and she there were three different 1642 00:57:54,069 --> 00:57:52,240 jurisdictions involved the she was taken 1643 00:57:56,950 --> 00:57:54,079 to a hospital so you have all of the 1644 00:57:59,030 --> 00:57:56,960 doctors and the nurses report so we we 1645 00:58:01,109 --> 00:57:59,040 can find ways to substantiate certain 1646 00:58:02,950 --> 00:58:01,119 things but yeah and that i've always 1647 00:58:04,390 --> 00:58:02,960 said that the abduction aspect is a more 1648 00:58:05,829 --> 00:58:04,400 tan 1649 00:58:09,270 --> 00:58:05,839 us 1650 00:58:10,950 --> 00:58:09,280 thrown out we should be considering it 1651 00:58:12,710 --> 00:58:10,960 as well and especially if we see 1652 00:58:14,549 --> 00:58:12,720 consistent patterns across all of these 1653 00:58:16,789 --> 00:58:14,559 cases we should take that into 1654 00:58:18,870 --> 00:58:16,799 consideration and and use that to try to 1655 00:58:21,670 --> 00:58:18,880 get as much information as we can with 1656 00:58:23,430 --> 00:58:21,680 with the overtly stated caveat that it's 1657 00:58:26,870 --> 00:58:23,440 never going to be 1658 00:58:28,549 --> 00:58:26,880 as reliable as many other forms of data 1659 00:58:30,150 --> 00:58:28,559 yeah no i'm not saying throw it out i've 1660 00:58:33,670 --> 00:58:30,160 said this to rich many times people 1661 00:58:36,230 --> 00:58:33,680 laugh whenever i say this and uh i i i 1662 00:58:37,910 --> 00:58:36,240 many people claim to be repeat abductees 1663 00:58:40,710 --> 00:58:37,920 experiencers 1664 00:58:43,349 --> 00:58:40,720 great we should like totally wire up 1665 00:58:45,670 --> 00:58:43,359 their bedroom with like every possible 1666 00:58:47,349 --> 00:58:45,680 camera imaginable and i all i've ever 1667 00:58:48,470 --> 00:58:47,359 heard when i've said that is like oh hal 1668 00:58:50,390 --> 00:58:48,480 put off already did that and the 1669 00:58:51,829 --> 00:58:50,400 following happened i'm like um can you 1670 00:58:54,069 --> 00:58:51,839 show me that on paper that's just 1671 00:58:55,510 --> 00:58:54,079 hearsay prove it to me i'm absolutely 1672 00:58:57,910 --> 00:58:55,520 not saying throw it out i would want to 1673 00:58:59,670 --> 00:58:57,920 study the crap out of it if i had time 1674 00:59:02,069 --> 00:58:59,680 and money and people willing i would 1675 00:59:04,150 --> 00:59:02,079 have so many cameras of different types 1676 00:59:06,069 --> 00:59:04,160 in that bedroom we would know one way or 1677 00:59:08,470 --> 00:59:06,079 another right away whether it's in the 1678 00:59:10,630 --> 00:59:08,480 head or if it's a real abduction and 1679 00:59:12,950 --> 00:59:10,640 again i don't buy the like oh well hal 1680 00:59:14,870 --> 00:59:12,960 tried that and it didn't work prove it 1681 00:59:16,870 --> 00:59:14,880 show me next time i see hal i hope he 1682 00:59:18,950 --> 00:59:16,880 comes to you and be like where did you 1683 00:59:20,549 --> 00:59:18,960 publish that how like it's not good 1684 00:59:23,589 --> 00:59:20,559 enough to say like oh i tried it it 1685 00:59:24,870 --> 00:59:23,599 didn't work that's not good enough 1686 00:59:26,630 --> 00:59:24,880 yeah yeah 1687 00:59:28,390 --> 00:59:26,640 and that's what i was saying like if if 1688 00:59:30,230 --> 00:59:28,400 i could be the observer or any trained 1689 00:59:32,150 --> 00:59:30,240 observer that went from place to place 1690 00:59:33,990 --> 00:59:32,160 we could use that observational data but 1691 00:59:36,470 --> 00:59:34,000 it's coming from different people with 1692 00:59:38,710 --> 00:59:36,480 their own fuzzy memories their own 1693 00:59:40,710 --> 00:59:38,720 way of conceptualizing things their own 1694 00:59:42,150 --> 00:59:40,720 belief systems that come into play but 1695 00:59:43,430 --> 00:59:42,160 but like what you said too if we could 1696 00:59:45,109 --> 00:59:43,440 have the sensors if we could have 1697 00:59:47,270 --> 00:59:45,119 cameras if we could have anything that's 1698 00:59:49,349 --> 00:59:47,280 checking for electromagnetic anomalies 1699 00:59:51,430 --> 00:59:49,359 have that in that place where some 1700 00:59:54,789 --> 00:59:51,440 sometimes these people claim to be taken 1701 00:59:57,750 --> 00:59:54,799 upwards 50 to 60 times throughout the 1702 00:59:59,670 --> 00:59:57,760 course of you know 15 20 years so 1703 01:00:02,630 --> 00:59:59,680 clearly you 1704 01:00:04,630 --> 01:00:02,640 yeah absolutely or even just one data 1705 01:00:07,030 --> 01:00:04,640 point where you can capture that on 1706 01:00:09,349 --> 01:00:07,040 video or whatever is happening and it 1707 01:00:10,309 --> 01:00:09,359 would be phenomenal yeah now what i've 1708 01:00:12,069 --> 01:00:10,319 heard is 1709 01:00:14,309 --> 01:00:12,079 allegedly again this was not proven to 1710 01:00:16,789 --> 01:00:14,319 me oh when we've tried to do it then the 1711 01:00:19,190 --> 01:00:16,799 abduction stop and i'm like yeah that 1712 01:00:21,190 --> 01:00:19,200 that that's very smelly that's very 1713 01:00:22,470 --> 01:00:21,200 fishy to me yeah okay 1714 01:00:23,589 --> 01:00:22,480 so i 1715 01:00:25,829 --> 01:00:23,599 yeah 1716 01:00:28,069 --> 01:00:25,839 i'll just share with you that that i 1717 01:00:29,990 --> 01:00:28,079 know mufon apparently it tried that as 1718 01:00:32,069 --> 01:00:30,000 well where they had uh devices that they 1719 01:00:33,750 --> 01:00:32,079 were putting in the rooms and of course 1720 01:00:35,430 --> 01:00:33,760 it's like like everything else it's like 1721 01:00:36,870 --> 01:00:35,440 you know how do you predict when these 1722 01:00:38,870 --> 01:00:36,880 things and then think about the sheer 1723 01:00:40,630 --> 01:00:38,880 volume of data you're collecting 1724 01:00:42,309 --> 01:00:40,640 you know in terms of just every day i'm 1725 01:00:43,990 --> 01:00:42,319 recording my bedroom when i go to bed at 1726 01:00:45,589 --> 01:00:44,000 night or something of that nature over 1727 01:00:48,870 --> 01:00:45,599 like a period of years then they come 1728 01:00:50,789 --> 01:00:48,880 back but uh anyway uh you know there's 1729 01:00:52,950 --> 01:00:50,799 challenges with it but you know i agree 1730 01:00:55,030 --> 01:00:52,960 with you if you if you have like 1731 01:00:56,789 --> 01:00:55,040 it's pretty logical you know go where 1732 01:00:58,549 --> 01:00:56,799 the objects and the 1733 01:01:01,270 --> 01:00:58,559 tend to go right if you're going to do a 1734 01:01:02,710 --> 01:01:01,280 study we'll hang around a nuke site 1735 01:01:05,349 --> 01:01:02,720 if you're going to do it you know go to 1736 01:01:07,030 --> 01:01:05,359 an adduction you know and and basically 1737 01:01:09,270 --> 01:01:07,040 you know set up as much as you can to be 1738 01:01:10,630 --> 01:01:09,280 able to do something with it right and 1739 01:01:12,870 --> 01:01:10,640 so exactly 1740 01:01:14,309 --> 01:01:12,880 yeah two convenient spots the thing i 1741 01:01:16,870 --> 01:01:14,319 want to come back to was just want to 1742 01:01:19,589 --> 01:01:16,880 mention that you know going back to the 1743 01:01:22,069 --> 01:01:19,599 humanoid uh the human being the the 1744 01:01:23,990 --> 01:01:22,079 alien if you would so to speak 1745 01:01:25,670 --> 01:01:24,000 let me clarify that in the early days of 1746 01:01:27,109 --> 01:01:25,680 ufology when i was running around doing 1747 01:01:29,109 --> 01:01:27,119 all these studies and things like that 1748 01:01:30,710 --> 01:01:29,119 back in the 50s and everything else you 1749 01:01:32,309 --> 01:01:30,720 know some of them look like us some of 1750 01:01:34,230 --> 01:01:32,319 them didn't look like us some are like 1751 01:01:36,390 --> 01:01:34,240 the the kelly hopkinsville or the little 1752 01:01:38,789 --> 01:01:36,400 robot a little robot types of things 1753 01:01:40,549 --> 01:01:38,799 you've got creatures like a mummy if you 1754 01:01:43,510 --> 01:01:40,559 would that that charlie hickson and 1755 01:01:45,829 --> 01:01:43,520 calvin parker saw on cat and pascagoula 1756 01:01:47,589 --> 01:01:45,839 it was a giant robot i think it was a 1757 01:01:49,430 --> 01:01:47,599 robot yeah they abducted them sort of 1758 01:01:50,630 --> 01:01:49,440 maybe like a robot or something like 1759 01:01:52,710 --> 01:01:50,640 that 1760 01:01:55,029 --> 01:01:52,720 and then you have all these other types 1761 01:01:56,150 --> 01:01:55,039 of beings that are seen in around the 1762 01:01:58,549 --> 01:01:56,160 world that 1763 01:01:59,910 --> 01:01:58,559 that are kind of like very unique or 1764 01:02:02,230 --> 01:01:59,920 have characteristics some were like 1765 01:02:06,470 --> 01:02:02,240 little dwarves uh if you take a look at 1766 01:02:08,309 --> 01:02:06,480 the the tom reed uh i think in matt read 1767 01:02:10,390 --> 01:02:08,319 uh cases up 1768 01:02:12,470 --> 01:02:10,400 uh you'll you'll see that that in that 1769 01:02:14,230 --> 01:02:12,480 case where there was actually some like 1770 01:02:16,230 --> 01:02:14,240 physical trace evidence that was also 1771 01:02:18,309 --> 01:02:16,240 supporting it that these are looking 1772 01:02:20,789 --> 01:02:18,319 like more like the typical 1773 01:02:23,349 --> 01:02:20,799 reptilians they didn't have an 1774 01:02:26,789 --> 01:02:23,359 appearance very much like at all like 1775 01:02:28,069 --> 01:02:26,799 with uh human uh but anyway i guess what 1776 01:02:31,349 --> 01:02:28,079 i'm trying to get at is that there's all 1777 01:02:34,549 --> 01:02:31,359 these variations of beings that make you 1778 01:02:37,349 --> 01:02:34,559 like tend to like wonder like well what 1779 01:02:39,430 --> 01:02:37,359 are we a zoo i mean is this is this a 1780 01:02:41,589 --> 01:02:39,440 visitation this is the natural park 1781 01:02:43,349 --> 01:02:41,599 where i come to do it and they're coming 1782 01:02:45,589 --> 01:02:43,359 from multiple sources 1783 01:02:47,829 --> 01:02:45,599 uh you know is it not just from the 1784 01:02:48,870 --> 01:02:47,839 future is it from somewhere else where 1785 01:02:51,910 --> 01:02:48,880 there's 1786 01:02:54,630 --> 01:02:51,920 so is any one hypothesis necessarily 1787 01:02:57,829 --> 01:02:54,640 proven no there's multiple hypotheses 1788 01:02:59,829 --> 01:02:57,839 and maybe it's many origins 1789 01:03:01,270 --> 01:02:59,839 i guess is what i'm trying to get at but 1790 01:03:02,789 --> 01:03:01,280 it just seems that there's all these 1791 01:03:04,870 --> 01:03:02,799 variations but 1792 01:03:07,190 --> 01:03:04,880 when you look at the actual object 1793 01:03:09,190 --> 01:03:07,200 maneuverability like the ufo or 1794 01:03:11,430 --> 01:03:09,200 something how it maneuvers 1795 01:03:14,789 --> 01:03:11,440 that remains kind of consistent with all 1796 01:03:17,029 --> 01:03:14,799 of them regardless of the size 1797 01:03:19,829 --> 01:03:17,039 you can have a an object that's reported 1798 01:03:21,349 --> 01:03:19,839 the size of a grapefruit that's hovering 1799 01:03:23,430 --> 01:03:21,359 and then shoots off at an incredible 1800 01:03:25,589 --> 01:03:23,440 rate of speed at the same time you can 1801 01:03:27,430 --> 01:03:25,599 have something that's huge like the 1802 01:03:29,750 --> 01:03:27,440 alaskan uh 1803 01:03:31,670 --> 01:03:29,760 sighting where it's also doing a very 1804 01:03:34,069 --> 01:03:31,680 kind of similar motion or something of 1805 01:03:36,390 --> 01:03:34,079 that nature so and they all typically 1806 01:03:38,789 --> 01:03:36,400 that's pretty consistent so how do you 1807 01:03:40,549 --> 01:03:38,799 explain the different in terms of the 1808 01:03:42,390 --> 01:03:40,559 beings 1809 01:03:44,630 --> 01:03:42,400 well i'd like to point out real quick 1810 01:03:46,630 --> 01:03:44,640 that and and there's always problems 1811 01:03:48,470 --> 01:03:46,640 with survey data but the dr edgar 1812 01:03:50,390 --> 01:03:48,480 mitchell foundation free study did a 1813 01:03:52,549 --> 01:03:50,400 massive and it's continuing they're up 1814 01:03:55,430 --> 01:03:52,559 to over five thousand 1815 01:03:57,510 --> 01:03:55,440 uh abductees and contactees but they 1816 01:03:59,430 --> 01:03:57,520 they showed statistically at least in 1817 01:04:01,829 --> 01:03:59,440 analyzing what people report that those 1818 01:04:03,750 --> 01:04:01,839 who witness these beings the majority 1819 01:04:05,910 --> 01:04:03,760 were described as human 1820 01:04:08,390 --> 01:04:05,920 not not just humanoid or human-like but 1821 01:04:10,470 --> 01:04:08,400 human exactly like us after that was the 1822 01:04:12,549 --> 01:04:10,480 short graze and then the tall grace and 1823 01:04:14,309 --> 01:04:12,559 only about five percent of all of these 1824 01:04:16,390 --> 01:04:14,319 abductees reported seen something like a 1825 01:04:18,710 --> 01:04:16,400 reptilian or a mantid or some sort of 1826 01:04:20,870 --> 01:04:18,720 insect so i mean if if we can consider 1827 01:04:22,950 --> 01:04:20,880 survey data in this in in a survey of 1828 01:04:25,109 --> 01:04:22,960 abductees and again it's a little more 1829 01:04:27,029 --> 01:04:25,119 tenuous because of their experiences and 1830 01:04:29,029 --> 01:04:27,039 how they remember it but the fact that 1831 01:04:30,470 --> 01:04:29,039 the majority are described as human 1832 01:04:32,950 --> 01:04:30,480 despite you're always going to have 1833 01:04:35,430 --> 01:04:32,960 outliers in any data set and it almost 1834 01:04:38,069 --> 01:04:35,440 seems like these mothman dogman type 1835 01:04:39,670 --> 01:04:38,079 creatures are very very rare examples 1836 01:04:41,829 --> 01:04:39,680 which could be attributed to something 1837 01:04:44,549 --> 01:04:41,839 entirely different but and the ones seen 1838 01:04:46,630 --> 01:04:44,559 in association with the craft especially 1839 01:04:47,990 --> 01:04:46,640 are almost ubiquitously described as 1840 01:04:50,470 --> 01:04:48,000 human so i think there is more 1841 01:04:52,470 --> 01:04:50,480 consistency in the craft and the beans 1842 01:04:56,390 --> 01:04:52,480 than than maybe what what you're giving 1843 01:04:59,589 --> 01:04:56,400 it credit for how uh so prior to the 1844 01:05:01,510 --> 01:04:59,599 betty and barney hill case 1845 01:05:04,549 --> 01:05:01,520 i rarely have ever heard anything that 1846 01:05:07,029 --> 01:05:04,559 looked like the the grays at all 1847 01:05:09,349 --> 01:05:07,039 described in any case that i went to or 1848 01:05:11,430 --> 01:05:09,359 any case that i ever read 1849 01:05:13,990 --> 01:05:11,440 yeah antonio vs boas was kind of a 1850 01:05:15,829 --> 01:05:14,000 hybrid yeah it was okay 1851 01:05:18,630 --> 01:05:15,839 right yeah that's that's the one case 1852 01:05:20,309 --> 01:05:18,640 that's prior that kind of sticks out but 1853 01:05:22,710 --> 01:05:20,319 but my point is i guess i'm trying to 1854 01:05:24,470 --> 01:05:22,720 say is that it's seem like you know and 1855 01:05:26,150 --> 01:05:24,480 this is part of how myth creations 1856 01:05:28,230 --> 01:05:26,160 happen 1857 01:05:30,069 --> 01:05:28,240 you know people see something they watch 1858 01:05:32,470 --> 01:05:30,079 something and then it becomes part of 1859 01:05:35,029 --> 01:05:32,480 the culture to where that they see them 1860 01:05:37,190 --> 01:05:35,039 too how much has that come into play and 1861 01:05:40,309 --> 01:05:37,200 all these cases generally showing that 1862 01:05:41,750 --> 01:05:40,319 type of thing from like about 1961 going 1863 01:05:43,670 --> 01:05:41,760 on 1864 01:05:45,349 --> 01:05:43,680 and so i guess what i'm trying to get at 1865 01:05:47,829 --> 01:05:45,359 is you know if i 1866 01:05:50,549 --> 01:05:47,839 have a great case like betty and barney 1867 01:05:52,710 --> 01:05:50,559 hill seeing these things how much does 1868 01:05:54,470 --> 01:05:52,720 that plant into the consciousness mind 1869 01:05:55,829 --> 01:05:54,480 that these are necessarily the same 1870 01:05:57,430 --> 01:05:55,839 things and i'm going to report it that 1871 01:06:00,150 --> 01:05:57,440 way yeah and that's one of the main 1872 01:06:02,710 --> 01:06:00,160 reasons i tried to get pre-1947 pre 1873 01:06:04,549 --> 01:06:02,720 betty and barney hill cases because yeah 1874 01:06:08,230 --> 01:06:04,559 you have a collective consciousness that 1875 01:06:10,710 --> 01:06:08,240 can be affected by these things and and 1876 01:06:11,670 --> 01:06:10,720 i address the psychosocial hypothesis 1877 01:06:13,670 --> 01:06:11,680 with the fact that we try to 1878 01:06:15,349 --> 01:06:13,680 anthropomorphize things it's natural for 1879 01:06:17,430 --> 01:06:15,359 us to do that are we imposing a human 1880 01:06:19,109 --> 01:06:17,440 form on these things because we're human 1881 01:06:21,270 --> 01:06:19,119 and it's understandable to us regardless 1882 01:06:22,630 --> 01:06:21,280 of where or when they come from so we 1883 01:06:24,630 --> 01:06:22,640 definitely have to acknowledge that and 1884 01:06:26,069 --> 01:06:24,640 it's what i keep coming back to is what 1885 01:06:28,309 --> 01:06:26,079 is evidence how 1886 01:06:30,230 --> 01:06:28,319 how can we understand these things and 1887 01:06:31,670 --> 01:06:30,240 we've just dismissed it for so long but 1888 01:06:33,670 --> 01:06:31,680 all these people are having such 1889 01:06:35,990 --> 01:06:33,680 consistent experiences 1890 01:06:37,910 --> 01:06:36,000 and i i didn't select any case for any 1891 01:06:40,150 --> 01:06:37,920 one particular reason i was just diving 1892 01:06:42,069 --> 01:06:40,160 in to find the most vetted the most the 1893 01:06:43,910 --> 01:06:42,079 ones that have like travis walton where 1894 01:06:44,950 --> 01:06:43,920 people saw him taken he's gone the 1895 01:06:46,630 --> 01:06:44,960 police 1896 01:06:48,390 --> 01:06:46,640 come up they're looking where we can 1897 01:06:49,589 --> 01:06:48,400 look at these facts associated with the 1898 01:06:52,069 --> 01:06:49,599 disappearance and understand how 1899 01:06:53,670 --> 01:06:52,079 anomalous it is but then also focus on 1900 01:06:55,109 --> 01:06:53,680 the way it happened what he described 1901 01:06:57,510 --> 01:06:55,119 seeing what other people described 1902 01:06:59,109 --> 01:06:57,520 seeing and and try to put together this 1903 01:07:02,309 --> 01:06:59,119 this massive 1904 01:07:03,589 --> 01:07:02,319 uh amount of observational data that we 1905 01:07:05,349 --> 01:07:03,599 can then go through and look for 1906 01:07:07,109 --> 01:07:05,359 patterns in because there are patterns 1907 01:07:09,109 --> 01:07:07,119 there's so much consistency across these 1908 01:07:10,349 --> 01:07:09,119 accounts regardless of when they happen 1909 01:07:12,390 --> 01:07:10,359 post 1910 01:07:14,470 --> 01:07:12,400 1947 pre 1911 01:07:16,549 --> 01:07:14,480 betty and barney hill there's so much 1912 01:07:18,069 --> 01:07:16,559 consistency and i think i think it needs 1913 01:07:19,750 --> 01:07:18,079 to be a part of the conversation to be 1914 01:07:20,950 --> 01:07:19,760 honest 1915 01:07:22,549 --> 01:07:20,960 excuse me 1916 01:07:24,069 --> 01:07:22,559 yeah i thought that you know like for me 1917 01:07:25,670 --> 01:07:24,079 it was always when i got started with 1918 01:07:26,789 --> 01:07:25,680 this whole thing it's like it was always 1919 01:07:28,630 --> 01:07:26,799 curious to 1920 01:07:30,630 --> 01:07:28,640 to hear that other countries were 1921 01:07:33,430 --> 01:07:30,640 reporting the same things you know and 1922 01:07:35,430 --> 01:07:33,440 so like you know uh you had the reverend 1923 01:07:37,270 --> 01:07:35,440 gill and papua new guinea that was 1924 01:07:39,829 --> 01:07:37,280 talking about seeing an object and even 1925 01:07:41,990 --> 01:07:39,839 waving at beings and they waved back on 1926 01:07:43,910 --> 01:07:42,000 the crap right so animations of that are 1927 01:07:44,789 --> 01:07:43,920 hilarious too or he's way back with this 1928 01:07:47,190 --> 01:07:44,799 guy 1929 01:07:49,270 --> 01:07:47,200 yeah exactly you know but i i thought it 1930 01:07:51,589 --> 01:07:49,280 was interesting in the context that for 1931 01:07:54,150 --> 01:07:51,599 me it just it told me that that look 1932 01:07:57,029 --> 01:07:54,160 it's just not a us phenomena it's it 1933 01:07:58,549 --> 01:07:57,039 goes beyond the us it's in other places 1934 01:08:00,870 --> 01:07:58,559 and there seems to be this inherent 1935 01:08:02,950 --> 01:08:00,880 consistency even with people who don't 1936 01:08:04,549 --> 01:08:02,960 have tvs can't watch the science fiction 1937 01:08:06,630 --> 01:08:04,559 shows that i'm doing and this is a 1938 01:08:09,349 --> 01:08:06,640 tribal area and they're describing the 1939 01:08:11,270 --> 01:08:09,359 same type of thing right so absolutely 1940 01:08:13,990 --> 01:08:11,280 yeah i recently went on a two-week trip 1941 01:08:15,750 --> 01:08:14,000 to zimbabwe 1942 01:08:17,430 --> 01:08:15,760 yeah we did an investigation in colombia 1943 01:08:18,789 --> 01:08:17,440 recently and it was it's ingrained in 1944 01:08:20,470 --> 01:08:18,799 the society 1945 01:08:22,309 --> 01:08:20,480 everybody wants to talk about ufos 1946 01:08:24,149 --> 01:08:22,319 there's murals and pictures everywhere 1947 01:08:26,390 --> 01:08:24,159 it's just completely different out there 1948 01:08:27,910 --> 01:08:26,400 so it's funny how it does in certain 1949 01:08:30,709 --> 01:08:27,920 cultures and countries and things it's 1950 01:08:33,030 --> 01:08:30,719 just it's the norm there's no stigma 1951 01:08:34,789 --> 01:08:33,040 there's no taboo um 1952 01:08:36,870 --> 01:08:34,799 so so yeah um 1953 01:08:38,950 --> 01:08:36,880 one question that really i i keep seeing 1954 01:08:41,269 --> 01:08:38,960 this statement from people that and it 1955 01:08:42,789 --> 01:08:41,279 seems to it bothers me a bit and that is 1956 01:08:45,349 --> 01:08:42,799 if they were a threat 1957 01:08:47,430 --> 01:08:45,359 they would have done something by now 1958 01:08:49,110 --> 01:08:47,440 which i i disagree with 1959 01:08:51,269 --> 01:08:49,120 because that's just us humanizing it 1960 01:08:52,630 --> 01:08:51,279 well they've been around for a long time 1961 01:08:54,149 --> 01:08:52,640 you know something would have happened 1962 01:08:55,829 --> 01:08:54,159 what do you guys think about a statement 1963 01:08:57,430 --> 01:08:55,839 like that 1964 01:08:58,630 --> 01:08:57,440 what is a long time 1965 01:09:00,950 --> 01:08:58,640 exactly so 1966 01:09:03,669 --> 01:09:00,960 if if you look at um 1967 01:09:06,309 --> 01:09:03,679 my colleague professor kevin knuth's 1968 01:09:10,070 --> 01:09:06,319 talk from scu i don't remember which one 1969 01:09:11,030 --> 01:09:10,080 1919 or 2020 hybrid or 21 but 1970 01:09:13,430 --> 01:09:11,040 um 1971 01:09:15,430 --> 01:09:13,440 relativistic time dilation means 1972 01:09:17,189 --> 01:09:15,440 that um if you've got 1973 01:09:18,309 --> 01:09:17,199 beings that can travel at relativistic 1974 01:09:22,070 --> 01:09:18,319 speeds 1975 01:09:24,229 --> 01:09:22,080 it could have been a few months ago that 1976 01:09:26,709 --> 01:09:24,239 they were in you know watching the map 1977 01:09:29,590 --> 01:09:26,719 you know watching the the woolly mammoth 1978 01:09:31,189 --> 01:09:29,600 you know and then the stone age and then 1979 01:09:33,189 --> 01:09:31,199 it could or it could it could even be 1980 01:09:35,189 --> 01:09:33,199 five minutes so when people talking 1981 01:09:36,789 --> 01:09:35,199 about being you know visited by beings 1982 01:09:39,349 --> 01:09:36,799 the scary thing is 1983 01:09:42,149 --> 01:09:39,359 it could be the same ones because of 1984 01:09:44,229 --> 01:09:42,159 relativistic time dilation so the 1985 01:09:47,349 --> 01:09:44,239 what does that mean oh but we've been 1986 01:09:48,550 --> 01:09:47,359 seeing them a long time that would be 1987 01:09:50,470 --> 01:09:48,560 like saying 1988 01:09:53,030 --> 01:09:50,480 so i'm i am partially agreeing with you 1989 01:09:55,189 --> 01:09:53,040 i want to be optimistic and positive but 1990 01:09:56,950 --> 01:09:55,199 your point is very valid because that 1991 01:09:59,189 --> 01:09:56,960 would be like the ants saying well those 1992 01:10:01,270 --> 01:09:59,199 boot didn't that boot didn't crush me 1993 01:10:03,110 --> 01:10:01,280 the last 10 times or 100 times that boot 1994 01:10:05,510 --> 01:10:03,120 walk by that means that boot will never 1995 01:10:06,790 --> 01:10:05,520 crush me oh crap and then i'm an answer 1996 01:10:10,070 --> 01:10:06,800 not even squish 1997 01:10:12,149 --> 01:10:10,080 so so i i yeah i i think that 1998 01:10:14,470 --> 01:10:12,159 that might be even though like i said i 1999 01:10:16,870 --> 01:10:14,480 tend to be more positive and optimistic 2000 01:10:18,630 --> 01:10:16,880 i also think we shouldn't be naive 2001 01:10:20,310 --> 01:10:18,640 right look at what stephen hawking said 2002 01:10:22,390 --> 01:10:20,320 for example about you know how things 2003 01:10:23,910 --> 01:10:22,400 didn't go too well for the aztecs and 2004 01:10:25,510 --> 01:10:23,920 the mayans and things like that these 2005 01:10:28,310 --> 01:10:25,520 are valid 2006 01:10:30,870 --> 01:10:28,320 considerations definitely valid points 2007 01:10:34,070 --> 01:10:30,880 we should not be comfy cozy 2008 01:10:35,990 --> 01:10:34,080 um and and naive 2009 01:10:38,550 --> 01:10:36,000 let me give you another 2010 01:10:40,870 --> 01:10:38,560 reframe on on that too because i it 2011 01:10:43,350 --> 01:10:40,880 might be uh you know just to 2012 01:10:45,189 --> 01:10:43,360 argue that a little bit um if you take a 2013 01:10:46,630 --> 01:10:45,199 look at the clarisse incident in in 2014 01:10:48,630 --> 01:10:46,640 brazil 2015 01:10:50,310 --> 01:10:48,640 would you describe that as and though 2016 01:10:52,070 --> 01:10:50,320 these people were being like attacked by 2017 01:10:55,030 --> 01:10:52,080 these things would you say that that's 2018 01:10:55,830 --> 01:10:55,040 necessarily friendly i mean and so i 2019 01:10:57,590 --> 01:10:55,840 mean 2020 01:10:58,630 --> 01:10:57,600 part of what we say is you know they're 2021 01:11:00,229 --> 01:10:58,640 not going to hurt us they're not going 2022 01:11:01,590 --> 01:11:00,239 to do that well these people would say 2023 01:11:03,189 --> 01:11:01,600 that definitely that they're out to hurt 2024 01:11:05,510 --> 01:11:03,199 us right i mean because that's that's 2025 01:11:07,189 --> 01:11:05,520 their experience right whatever that was 2026 01:11:08,790 --> 01:11:07,199 that was going on but why is it black 2027 01:11:10,470 --> 01:11:08,800 and white it's like you were earlier you 2028 01:11:12,070 --> 01:11:10,480 were saying how there could be if there 2029 01:11:13,350 --> 01:11:12,080 are intelligent races if they exist 2030 01:11:14,950 --> 01:11:13,360 there could be different species there 2031 01:11:16,550 --> 01:11:14,960 could be and 2032 01:11:18,550 --> 01:11:16,560 travis taylor gave a talk on this at the 2033 01:11:20,709 --> 01:11:18,560 very first conference right in 2019. 2034 01:11:21,510 --> 01:11:20,719 travis taylor's point was what if 2035 01:11:23,510 --> 01:11:21,520 they're 2036 01:11:25,669 --> 01:11:23,520 what if it's random and 50 2037 01:11:27,830 --> 01:11:25,679 evil and 50 percent bad if their 2038 01:11:30,870 --> 01:11:27,840 intelligence is out there i think that's 2039 01:11:34,310 --> 01:11:30,880 a very fair point is why do we have to 2040 01:11:36,709 --> 01:11:34,320 assume that technological superiority 2041 01:11:39,510 --> 01:11:36,719 automatically means moral moral 2042 01:11:40,390 --> 01:11:39,520 superiority and i i don't think that's 2043 01:11:41,990 --> 01:11:40,400 the case 2044 01:11:44,470 --> 01:11:42,000 just look at humanity with nuclear 2045 01:11:46,870 --> 01:11:44,480 weapons i really don't think i think 2046 01:11:48,709 --> 01:11:46,880 that one can be technologically superior 2047 01:11:50,470 --> 01:11:48,719 but still evil but i don't think it's 2048 01:11:51,669 --> 01:11:50,480 black and white because we could be 2049 01:11:55,030 --> 01:11:51,679 different dealing with different 2050 01:11:57,030 --> 01:11:55,040 phenomena we could even if the eth 2051 01:11:59,189 --> 01:11:57,040 hypothesis is true could be different 2052 01:12:01,189 --> 01:11:59,199 species i mean there's there's many 2053 01:12:02,790 --> 01:12:01,199 explanations there i guess that that's 2054 01:12:04,630 --> 01:12:02,800 that was that's why i was going to go 2055 01:12:06,390 --> 01:12:04,640 with my point i would say just merely 2056 01:12:08,709 --> 01:12:06,400 pointing out the fact to the people in 2057 01:12:10,709 --> 01:12:08,719 in brazil who experienced that their 2058 01:12:12,390 --> 01:12:10,719 perspective was that this was evil what 2059 01:12:14,310 --> 01:12:12,400 about the people that are being picked 2060 01:12:16,550 --> 01:12:14,320 up uh you know allegedly for the 2061 01:12:18,149 --> 01:12:16,560 abduction cases stuff like that and 2062 01:12:20,229 --> 01:12:18,159 being you know checked on would you say 2063 01:12:21,750 --> 01:12:20,239 that that's a very friendly thing that 2064 01:12:23,430 --> 01:12:21,760 you know going against your will and 2065 01:12:26,149 --> 01:12:23,440 taking and dragging you out of your home 2066 01:12:28,870 --> 01:12:26,159 and suddenly putting and allegedly doing 2067 01:12:33,590 --> 01:12:31,750 so if that's going again though if we 2068 01:12:37,910 --> 01:12:33,600 you know it is if we if 2069 01:12:42,229 --> 01:12:40,070 yeah yeah 2070 01:12:44,310 --> 01:12:42,239 if we can if we can trust the survey 2071 01:12:46,790 --> 01:12:44,320 data from from the free study the dr 2072 01:12:48,709 --> 01:12:46,800 edgar mitchell foundation study 85 2073 01:12:50,870 --> 01:12:48,719 of those who have an abduction 2074 01:12:52,630 --> 01:12:50,880 experience 2075 01:12:53,750 --> 01:12:52,640 stated that it was either benign or 2076 01:12:55,590 --> 01:12:53,760 positive 2077 01:12:57,430 --> 01:12:55,600 uh if the ones that they were 2078 01:12:59,350 --> 01:12:57,440 interacting with were more human-like it 2079 01:13:01,189 --> 01:12:59,360 was only five percent that said they had 2080 01:13:02,790 --> 01:13:01,199 a negative experience so that that might 2081 01:13:04,229 --> 01:13:02,800 come back to your point too about there 2082 01:13:06,470 --> 01:13:04,239 being different types different 2083 01:13:09,030 --> 01:13:06,480 varieties whatever you want to call them 2084 01:13:10,709 --> 01:13:09,040 um who maybe don't have 2085 01:13:13,750 --> 01:13:10,719 of that same connectors for whatever 2086 01:13:15,270 --> 01:13:13,760 reason i'm not necessarily 2087 01:13:17,750 --> 01:13:15,280 just saying if they're us from elect 2088 01:13:19,669 --> 01:13:17,760 more humanity being shown from ones that 2089 01:13:21,510 --> 01:13:19,679 are more like us especially if we evolve 2090 01:13:23,270 --> 01:13:21,520 our consciousness if we evolve our sense 2091 01:13:24,390 --> 01:13:23,280 of empathy which i think is a very 2092 01:13:26,310 --> 01:13:24,400 commonly reported thing in these 2093 01:13:28,070 --> 01:13:26,320 abduction accounts as they feel a deep 2094 01:13:29,669 --> 01:13:28,080 sense of love and empathy even though 2095 01:13:31,750 --> 01:13:29,679 they're being probed in their rectums 2096 01:13:33,430 --> 01:13:31,760 and having you know eggs and sperm 2097 01:13:35,270 --> 01:13:33,440 extracted which is a very invasive 2098 01:13:37,270 --> 01:13:35,280 procedure it's it's a kidnapping it's 2099 01:13:39,510 --> 01:13:37,280 rape in some cases there's ethical 2100 01:13:41,350 --> 01:13:39,520 issues involved with this but people 2101 01:13:43,270 --> 01:13:41,360 still come away with it more often than 2102 01:13:44,709 --> 01:13:43,280 not feeling like they're contributing to 2103 01:13:46,390 --> 01:13:44,719 something bigger than themselves they're 2104 01:13:47,510 --> 01:13:46,400 contributing to some greater good that 2105 01:13:49,669 --> 01:13:47,520 they feel 2106 01:13:51,110 --> 01:13:49,679 uh almost proud to be a part of in many 2107 01:13:52,470 --> 01:13:51,120 cases and it kind of comes down to the 2108 01:13:54,149 --> 01:13:52,480 difference between a contactee and an 2109 01:13:55,669 --> 01:13:54,159 abductee at that point 2110 01:13:57,990 --> 01:13:55,679 but but i think it's important to 2111 01:13:59,669 --> 01:13:58,000 acknowledge those cases where you do 2112 01:14:01,990 --> 01:13:59,679 have and especially statistically if we 2113 01:14:03,830 --> 01:14:02,000 can trust the survey data where the 2114 01:14:06,790 --> 01:14:03,840 statistics show that people are 2115 01:14:08,310 --> 01:14:06,800 genuinely okay with or really enjoy 2116 01:14:10,550 --> 01:14:08,320 their experiences whitley strieber is 2117 01:14:12,630 --> 01:14:10,560 one of the best examples he came to 2118 01:14:17,750 --> 01:14:12,640 crave this interaction with these people 2119 01:14:22,550 --> 01:14:19,750 yeah and i i think i don't know if i 2120 01:14:24,229 --> 01:14:22,560 caught it like but like again activating 2121 01:14:25,830 --> 01:14:24,239 missiles or deactivating missiles that 2122 01:14:28,470 --> 01:14:25,840 you know is that good bad 2123 01:14:30,390 --> 01:14:28,480 do we really know uh and then there's 2124 01:14:32,950 --> 01:14:30,400 the problem also the fact that there are 2125 01:14:34,630 --> 01:14:32,960 these phenomena that uh you know like 2126 01:14:36,870 --> 01:14:34,640 you know for example 2127 01:14:39,270 --> 01:14:36,880 on the military side anyway we have to 2128 01:14:40,709 --> 01:14:39,280 look at defense and we have to perceive 2129 01:14:41,990 --> 01:14:40,719 it being a threat because we don't 2130 01:14:43,350 --> 01:14:42,000 understand what it is and where it's 2131 01:14:45,350 --> 01:14:43,360 from and everything else and what it's 2132 01:14:46,229 --> 01:14:45,360 doing we don't know what its intent is 2133 01:14:48,550 --> 01:14:46,239 right 2134 01:14:50,630 --> 01:14:48,560 so when you have these drones that are 2135 01:14:51,669 --> 01:14:50,640 plaguing these ships these military 2136 01:14:53,350 --> 01:14:51,679 ships 2137 01:14:55,030 --> 01:14:53,360 and you know they're they're spending 2138 01:14:57,750 --> 01:14:55,040 time and following them and everything 2139 01:15:01,030 --> 01:14:57,760 else you know is that a threat or is 2140 01:15:03,110 --> 01:15:01,040 that not a threat and you know is and do 2141 01:15:05,030 --> 01:15:03,120 we really know what the origin is is 2142 01:15:06,390 --> 01:15:05,040 that really the russians or the chinese 2143 01:15:08,310 --> 01:15:06,400 that are doing something and they've 2144 01:15:10,550 --> 01:15:08,320 just advanced the technology 2145 01:15:12,070 --> 01:15:10,560 so you know from a military standpoint 2146 01:15:14,950 --> 01:15:12,080 in the defense standpoint you have to 2147 01:15:17,270 --> 01:15:14,960 treat it as being a critical threat 2148 01:15:19,750 --> 01:15:17,280 and then determine from your analysis or 2149 01:15:22,470 --> 01:15:19,760 you know whatever that it is whether it 2150 01:15:25,189 --> 01:15:22,480 could be potentially uh this was maybe a 2151 01:15:28,550 --> 01:15:25,199 uap or this is really a drone from 2152 01:15:30,550 --> 01:15:28,560 another country right so uh it's one of 2153 01:15:32,070 --> 01:15:30,560 those like things you have to consider 2154 01:15:33,830 --> 01:15:32,080 and look at it you know from that 2155 01:15:35,830 --> 01:15:33,840 standpoint as well right well the drone 2156 01:15:37,590 --> 01:15:35,840 from the other country thinks so this 2157 01:15:39,350 --> 01:15:37,600 really irks me and this will be 2158 01:15:40,709 --> 01:15:39,360 something you probably notice about the 2159 01:15:43,030 --> 01:15:40,719 this you'll probably agree with me rich 2160 01:15:46,790 --> 01:15:43,040 about the the hearing is we want to 2161 01:15:49,270 --> 01:15:46,800 pretend ours no cases before 2004 right 2162 01:15:50,870 --> 01:15:49,280 and and i i i don't want to get into a 2163 01:15:52,709 --> 01:15:50,880 rabbit hole of what the motive could be 2164 01:15:54,950 --> 01:15:52,719 for that but i wanted to point out that 2165 01:15:56,709 --> 01:15:54,960 in the movie a tear in the sky there's a 2166 01:15:59,750 --> 01:15:56,719 scene where i'm sitting with travis and 2167 01:16:02,630 --> 01:15:59,760 kevin and talking and i point out 2168 01:16:03,910 --> 01:16:02,640 that there are there there were these um 2169 01:16:04,950 --> 01:16:03,920 you'll probably notice documents you 2170 01:16:07,030 --> 01:16:04,960 know i'm talking about this was in the 2171 01:16:09,669 --> 01:16:07,040 history channel show on identify talking 2172 01:16:11,669 --> 01:16:09,679 about flying white butane tanks in the 2173 01:16:13,669 --> 01:16:11,679 1940s 50s 2174 01:16:15,750 --> 01:16:13,679 ah that sounds a lot like a tic tac to 2175 01:16:17,590 --> 01:16:15,760 me a 40 foot white butane tank that 2176 01:16:20,310 --> 01:16:17,600 sounds like exactly the same thing 2177 01:16:22,310 --> 01:16:20,320 almost and that and let's see in russia 2178 01:16:25,270 --> 01:16:22,320 and china let's see russia 2179 01:16:27,430 --> 01:16:25,280 just was recovering from world war ii 2180 01:16:29,990 --> 01:16:27,440 china was recovering from his world war 2181 01:16:31,750 --> 01:16:30,000 ii and a civil war communist nationalist 2182 01:16:33,990 --> 01:16:31,760 oh but i'm sure they had you know 2183 01:16:35,510 --> 01:16:34,000 breakthrough attack in you know why why 2184 01:16:38,550 --> 01:16:35,520 didn't they use it against the nazis in 2185 01:16:41,350 --> 01:16:38,560 japanese so like the absurdity of the oh 2186 01:16:43,189 --> 01:16:41,360 it's russia china if that's true why the 2187 01:16:47,189 --> 01:16:43,199 hell are there cases from the 40s and 2188 01:16:48,950 --> 01:16:47,199 50s describing what sounds like um the 2189 01:16:50,870 --> 01:16:48,960 nimitz encounter you know how do you 2190 01:16:53,030 --> 01:16:50,880 explain that how do you how does that i 2191 01:16:55,430 --> 01:16:53,040 can yeah let me do a counter argument 2192 01:16:56,470 --> 01:16:55,440 with you okay if there's any truth to a 2193 01:17:00,229 --> 01:16:56,480 crash 2194 01:17:01,750 --> 01:17:00,239 and other countries have had them 2195 01:17:03,430 --> 01:17:01,760 then there's no reason why they couldn't 2196 01:17:05,270 --> 01:17:03,440 have had a breakthrough technology in 2197 01:17:07,590 --> 01:17:05,280 terms of re uh you know using the 2198 01:17:08,709 --> 01:17:07,600 material that they got from the crash or 2199 01:17:10,950 --> 01:17:08,719 doing something like that with 2200 01:17:13,189 --> 01:17:10,960 re-engineering it so they might not be 2201 01:17:15,430 --> 01:17:13,199 going on a full-scale tic deck but maybe 2202 01:17:16,470 --> 01:17:15,440 they're using some of this as drones 2203 01:17:18,709 --> 01:17:16,480 technology 2204 01:17:20,950 --> 01:17:18,719 and by the way you know 2205 01:17:23,189 --> 01:17:20,960 i'm right now in the process and i have 2206 01:17:24,950 --> 01:17:23,199 a project of the army where i'm putting 2207 01:17:27,590 --> 01:17:24,960 in uh we're putting in at the army 2208 01:17:30,229 --> 01:17:27,600 material command and throughout the dod 2209 01:17:31,990 --> 01:17:30,239 drone killing devices and we have we're 2210 01:17:34,470 --> 01:17:32,000 putting in and spending a lot of money 2211 01:17:37,030 --> 01:17:34,480 at all of our installations our ranges 2212 01:17:39,430 --> 01:17:37,040 and all of our maybe like the ships to 2213 01:17:42,070 --> 01:17:39,440 be able to do that because we know that 2214 01:17:44,630 --> 01:17:42,080 drones are advancing in terms of their 2215 01:17:47,430 --> 01:17:44,640 technical understanding and abilities uh 2216 01:17:49,189 --> 01:17:47,440 across the world and 2217 01:17:51,830 --> 01:17:49,199 so i'm just going to say that we have to 2218 01:17:53,750 --> 01:17:51,840 play you have to determine which is 2219 01:17:55,750 --> 01:17:53,760 which is that really the the russian 2220 01:17:57,910 --> 01:17:55,760 drone and and not 2221 01:17:59,110 --> 01:17:57,920 i'm not talking about tic tacs yeah no i 2222 01:18:00,229 --> 01:17:59,120 know what you mean but look i'm 2223 01:18:01,990 --> 01:18:00,239 skeptical in the whole reverse 2224 01:18:03,990 --> 01:18:02,000 engineering angle that ties into we're 2225 01:18:05,910 --> 01:18:04,000 talking about earlier in my opinion if 2226 01:18:08,630 --> 01:18:05,920 we have stuff and like i said i'm not at 2227 01:18:10,470 --> 01:18:08,640 all convinced we have stuff if we do 2228 01:18:12,229 --> 01:18:10,480 we don't have the faintest idea how to 2229 01:18:13,830 --> 01:18:12,239 reverse engineer it it would be like 2230 01:18:16,950 --> 01:18:13,840 giving a laptop 2231 01:18:19,270 --> 01:18:16,960 to michael faraday in the 1890s the one 2232 01:18:20,870 --> 01:18:19,280 of the most brilliant scientists or you 2233 01:18:22,709 --> 01:18:20,880 know james clerk maxwell you know 2234 01:18:24,630 --> 01:18:22,719 maxwell's equations and be like hey 2235 01:18:26,149 --> 01:18:24,640 figure this out they wouldn't have they 2236 01:18:27,669 --> 01:18:26,159 could spend the rest of their lives on 2237 01:18:30,070 --> 01:18:27,679 it after the battery died they would 2238 01:18:30,950 --> 01:18:30,080 have no idea and to corroborate what i'm 2239 01:18:32,950 --> 01:18:30,960 saying 2240 01:18:34,229 --> 01:18:32,960 kevin has talked to i don't know if it 2241 01:18:36,229 --> 01:18:34,239 was a private conversation so i won't 2242 01:18:39,030 --> 01:18:36,239 say he who he talked to but famous 2243 01:18:41,030 --> 01:18:39,040 person at seu kevin confronted someone 2244 01:18:43,110 --> 01:18:41,040 on this who is alleged to be working 2245 01:18:45,030 --> 01:18:43,120 with parts and be like oh you know i 2246 01:18:46,550 --> 01:18:45,040 think what if this part is that part 2247 01:18:48,950 --> 01:18:46,560 this is the computer and this is the 2248 01:18:50,550 --> 01:18:48,960 navigation and this in this scientist 2249 01:18:52,149 --> 01:18:50,560 said to kevin 2250 01:18:54,149 --> 01:18:52,159 kevin we wouldn't even know the 2251 01:18:56,149 --> 01:18:54,159 difference between the the navigational 2252 01:18:57,990 --> 01:18:56,159 computer and a sandwich 2253 01:18:59,590 --> 01:18:58,000 and so this was even admitted by the 2254 01:19:00,870 --> 01:18:59,600 people who claimed to be reverse 2255 01:19:02,149 --> 01:19:00,880 engineering for the government even 2256 01:19:04,709 --> 01:19:02,159 admitted that 2257 01:19:07,669 --> 01:19:04,719 to uh to to have to kevin knew saying 2258 01:19:10,390 --> 01:19:07,679 yeah it's we have no clue 2259 01:19:12,550 --> 01:19:10,400 no clue like i said laptop imagine 2260 01:19:15,030 --> 01:19:12,560 michael faraday with a laptop hell 2261 01:19:17,910 --> 01:19:15,040 imagine albert einstein with an iphone 2262 01:19:20,390 --> 01:19:17,920 he would never figure it out ever i 2263 01:19:22,149 --> 01:19:20,400 claim even if he had a team of people he 2264 01:19:24,550 --> 01:19:22,159 would never figure out how in a high one 2265 01:19:26,550 --> 01:19:24,560 iphone works before he would die 2266 01:19:28,550 --> 01:19:26,560 that's that's where we're at i think if 2267 01:19:30,470 --> 01:19:28,560 we have anything if we have something 2268 01:19:32,229 --> 01:19:30,480 well i think it's hopeless i beg to 2269 01:19:33,830 --> 01:19:32,239 differ but anyway you're right i hope 2270 01:19:36,390 --> 01:19:33,840 you're right that's okay 2271 01:19:39,510 --> 01:19:36,400 that's okay uh you know i mean i just i 2272 01:19:43,189 --> 01:19:40,950 i missed part of the conversation 2273 01:19:45,110 --> 01:19:43,199 because my internet's absolute garbage 2274 01:19:46,630 --> 01:19:45,120 but my understands you're talking about 2275 01:19:48,229 --> 01:19:46,640 if something crashed how would we 2276 01:19:50,630 --> 01:19:48,239 reverse engineer it without the 2277 01:19:52,149 --> 01:19:50,640 technology or knowledge to figure it out 2278 01:19:53,590 --> 01:19:52,159 it would be hopeless 2279 01:19:55,270 --> 01:19:53,600 more optimistic i think i agree with 2280 01:19:57,430 --> 01:19:55,280 both of you 2281 01:19:59,350 --> 01:19:57,440 say roswell happened and it's a highly 2282 01:20:02,310 --> 01:19:59,360 sophisticated craft 2283 01:20:04,070 --> 01:20:02,320 but i mean at 1947 we would have no idea 2284 01:20:06,790 --> 01:20:04,080 what any of it was how it worked but by 2285 01:20:08,229 --> 01:20:06,800 now with some 70 years to figure it out 2286 01:20:10,310 --> 01:20:08,239 i mean couldn't we be at a place where 2287 01:20:12,149 --> 01:20:10,320 now we're implementing that technology 2288 01:20:14,149 --> 01:20:12,159 and using some of its basic 2289 01:20:16,310 --> 01:20:14,159 elements at least in the present no but 2290 01:20:18,629 --> 01:20:16,320 my point was that wasn't possible in the 2291 01:20:20,229 --> 01:20:18,639 late 40s though i was 2292 01:20:22,070 --> 01:20:20,239 discussing with rich the the thing about 2293 01:20:24,229 --> 01:20:22,080 the flying white butane tanks that 2294 01:20:25,750 --> 01:20:24,239 people saw in the 40s and i'm saying 2295 01:20:27,030 --> 01:20:25,760 that there's no way 2296 01:20:29,110 --> 01:20:27,040 we could have reverse engineered 2297 01:20:31,110 --> 01:20:29,120 something that fast and that was my 2298 01:20:33,430 --> 01:20:31,120 point no decades that i will give you 2299 01:20:35,510 --> 01:20:33,440 and i'll give rich that point is is when 2300 01:20:37,590 --> 01:20:35,520 i was saying now it's impossible what i 2301 01:20:40,149 --> 01:20:37,600 meant is you're not going to like take 2302 01:20:42,470 --> 01:20:40,159 two or even five years and figure it out 2303 01:20:44,149 --> 01:20:42,480 it's going to take decades of the best 2304 01:20:46,070 --> 01:20:44,159 and brightest minds it's going to take 2305 01:20:48,310 --> 01:20:46,080 and there's so much back in antiquity 2306 01:20:51,750 --> 01:20:48,320 too i mean jacques vale's book wonder in 2307 01:20:53,669 --> 01:20:51,760 the sky and so many richard stutters too 2308 01:20:55,430 --> 01:20:53,679 traced all of these cases back thousands 2309 01:20:57,270 --> 01:20:55,440 of years which is the same thing you 2310 01:20:59,510 --> 01:20:57,280 know and i like matthew's point too 2311 01:21:01,510 --> 01:20:59,520 about the relativist relativistic time 2312 01:21:03,110 --> 01:21:01,520 dilation thing i talk about that a lot 2313 01:21:04,709 --> 01:21:03,120 in my new book and how they this it 2314 01:21:06,390 --> 01:21:04,719 could be the same beings being perceived 2315 01:21:08,070 --> 01:21:06,400 in different ways by these different 2316 01:21:09,910 --> 01:21:08,080 groups who as you go back farther in 2317 01:21:11,510 --> 01:21:09,920 time or more primitive have 2318 01:21:13,270 --> 01:21:11,520 fewer things they can compare it to to 2319 01:21:14,470 --> 01:21:13,280 understand it but as we get more evolved 2320 01:21:16,550 --> 01:21:14,480 and we start to have more of these 2321 01:21:19,910 --> 01:21:16,560 technologies ourselves we can start to 2322 01:21:22,550 --> 01:21:19,920 put it in in more comprehensible terms 2323 01:21:24,709 --> 01:21:22,560 yeah and and to my my point was that not 2324 01:21:26,950 --> 01:21:24,719 necessarily that i'm expecting that the 2325 01:21:28,709 --> 01:21:26,960 the drone is necessarily you know 2326 01:21:31,110 --> 01:21:28,719 something that was built back and from 2327 01:21:32,870 --> 01:21:31,120 roswell or whatever but my my point was 2328 01:21:34,870 --> 01:21:32,880 that the materials 2329 01:21:36,470 --> 01:21:34,880 might give unique properties or 2330 01:21:37,990 --> 01:21:36,480 something of that nature that you can 2331 01:21:40,229 --> 01:21:38,000 figure out and you might be able to 2332 01:21:42,550 --> 01:21:40,239 utilize that and there's also the belief 2333 01:21:45,270 --> 01:21:42,560 that for example nitinol or shape memory 2334 01:21:47,350 --> 01:21:45,280 alloys did come from going to patel 2335 01:21:49,430 --> 01:21:47,360 memorial institute which actually was 2336 01:21:51,270 --> 01:21:49,440 contracted with blue book 2337 01:21:53,189 --> 01:21:51,280 that would have had maybe the roswell 2338 01:21:54,790 --> 01:21:53,199 materials passed off to it and maybe 2339 01:21:57,270 --> 01:21:54,800 that's helping 2340 01:21:59,750 --> 01:21:57,280 to be able to push us ahead with that 2341 01:22:01,110 --> 01:21:59,760 particular shape memory alloy so i guess 2342 01:22:03,110 --> 01:22:01,120 what i'm trying to say is and that's not 2343 01:22:04,629 --> 01:22:03,120 necessarily figuring out the craft but 2344 01:22:06,550 --> 01:22:04,639 it's you figuring out how you can 2345 01:22:08,470 --> 01:22:06,560 utilize the materials 2346 01:22:10,310 --> 01:22:08,480 in the engineering no you may be right 2347 01:22:12,470 --> 01:22:10,320 rich i'm open to that possibility and 2348 01:22:14,950 --> 01:22:12,480 that's that's what i was trying to say i 2349 01:22:17,110 --> 01:22:14,960 was not necessarily saying that that 2350 01:22:20,470 --> 01:22:17,120 they're we have figured it out and we're 2351 01:22:22,229 --> 01:22:20,480 flying them i i'm saying that materials 2352 01:22:24,229 --> 01:22:22,239 or something of that nature could be 2353 01:22:27,270 --> 01:22:24,239 actually reutilized and we're starting 2354 01:22:29,030 --> 01:22:27,280 to see some of that happen from previous 2355 01:22:30,790 --> 01:22:29,040 crashes well 2356 01:22:32,390 --> 01:22:30,800 i can give you a story that actually 2357 01:22:33,990 --> 01:22:32,400 corroborates what you just said that's a 2358 01:22:36,790 --> 01:22:34,000 really good point that that i had 2359 01:22:38,629 --> 01:22:36,800 forgotten myself even actually 2360 01:22:39,830 --> 01:22:38,639 i just remembered that once when i was 2361 01:22:42,310 --> 01:22:39,840 um 2362 01:22:44,149 --> 01:22:42,320 i i remember watching unsolved mysteries 2363 01:22:47,270 --> 01:22:44,159 and you know there was the robert stack 2364 01:22:48,790 --> 01:22:47,280 and talking about the roswell crash and 2365 01:22:50,870 --> 01:22:48,800 then they were showing like people 2366 01:22:53,669 --> 01:22:50,880 describing the materials and i was like 2367 01:22:55,510 --> 01:22:53,679 ah well that's that's that's that's 2368 01:22:58,149 --> 01:22:55,520 boring that's just aluminized mylar i 2369 01:22:59,910 --> 01:22:58,159 use that as a grad student but then i 2370 01:23:02,550 --> 01:22:59,920 googled it and i realized aluminized 2371 01:23:04,790 --> 01:23:02,560 mylar had not been invented yet and 2372 01:23:06,870 --> 01:23:04,800 similarly teflon and other description 2373 01:23:08,709 --> 01:23:06,880 materials where originally i was very 2374 01:23:11,110 --> 01:23:08,719 very extra skeptical i was like yeah but 2375 01:23:13,270 --> 01:23:11,120 that's just aluminized mylar and teflon 2376 01:23:15,669 --> 01:23:13,280 but then i googled it and i'm like uh 2377 01:23:17,750 --> 01:23:15,679 wait that wasn't invented until 10 years 2378 01:23:19,430 --> 01:23:17,760 after that right so 2379 01:23:21,430 --> 01:23:19,440 then i started the question 2380 01:23:23,350 --> 01:23:21,440 question question that so yeah no that 2381 01:23:25,350 --> 01:23:23,360 that's that is a valid point i was 2382 01:23:27,510 --> 01:23:25,360 saying that but figuring it all out and 2383 01:23:29,110 --> 01:23:27,520 like flying drones around yeah i am very 2384 01:23:31,669 --> 01:23:29,120 skeptical would be able to do that 2385 01:23:33,830 --> 01:23:31,679 easily not without decades of hard work 2386 01:23:35,590 --> 01:23:33,840 yeah and my point about the the drone 2387 01:23:38,070 --> 01:23:35,600 thing was literally that just that the 2388 01:23:39,750 --> 01:23:38,080 military has to treat it both from a 2389 01:23:42,310 --> 01:23:39,760 standpoint of it's potentially 2390 01:23:43,270 --> 01:23:42,320 earth-based or it might be something 2391 01:23:46,070 --> 01:23:43,280 else 2392 01:23:47,990 --> 01:23:46,080 i'll point out to you that uh that i 2393 01:23:49,990 --> 01:23:48,000 heard recently it's it's been all over 2394 01:23:51,590 --> 01:23:50,000 the news about about the fact that they 2395 01:23:55,669 --> 01:23:51,600 tried to use these drone killing 2396 01:23:57,510 --> 01:23:55,679 technologies on one and it didn't work 2397 01:23:59,350 --> 01:23:57,520 so uh obviously it might have been 2398 01:24:00,709 --> 01:23:59,360 utilizing some other kind of technology 2399 01:24:03,110 --> 01:24:00,719 other than what we think that a drone 2400 01:24:05,669 --> 01:24:03,120 should be but you know my point is that 2401 01:24:07,030 --> 01:24:05,679 you still have to from a defense posture 2402 01:24:09,030 --> 01:24:07,040 you still have to look at it as a 2403 01:24:11,270 --> 01:24:09,040 potential threat and you don't know 2404 01:24:13,910 --> 01:24:11,280 where it's from and that's why you see 2405 01:24:15,669 --> 01:24:13,920 these things as being uh 2406 01:24:17,030 --> 01:24:15,679 in the hearing they claim that the green 2407 01:24:18,950 --> 01:24:17,040 triangles well they're not green you 2408 01:24:20,470 --> 01:24:18,960 know what i mean night vision oh we've 2409 01:24:23,830 --> 01:24:20,480 we've solved that one 2410 01:24:26,070 --> 01:24:23,840 um okay so was that russia china 2411 01:24:27,830 --> 01:24:26,080 tell us what the hell so yeah that was 2412 01:24:30,470 --> 01:24:27,840 that was intriguing they're like oh we 2413 01:24:31,590 --> 01:24:30,480 figured that one out um okay great can 2414 01:24:32,790 --> 01:24:31,600 you tell us 2415 01:24:34,550 --> 01:24:32,800 yeah 2416 01:24:37,669 --> 01:24:34,560 well i can help you out with that 2417 01:24:39,750 --> 01:24:37,679 because i actually studied that myself 2418 01:24:42,470 --> 01:24:39,760 so what you had is a situation where an 2419 01:24:45,110 --> 01:24:42,480 individual's got like a you know gen one 2420 01:24:47,430 --> 01:24:45,120 type of night vision kind of like lens 2421 01:24:49,189 --> 01:24:47,440 it doesn't have the means of recording 2422 01:24:52,149 --> 01:24:49,199 so he holds up his 2423 01:24:54,870 --> 01:24:52,159 slr camera oh no no that aspect i know 2424 01:24:56,870 --> 01:24:54,880 we did that on uapx all right no no no i 2425 01:24:58,870 --> 01:24:56,880 get the triangle is fake it's with 2426 01:25:01,030 --> 01:24:58,880 filtering dave mason already explained 2427 01:25:04,229 --> 01:25:01,040 that he figured that out the aperture 2428 01:25:06,870 --> 01:25:04,239 was a creates a bokeh effect yeah that i 2429 01:25:09,910 --> 01:25:06,880 got but what are they what are they but 2430 01:25:11,910 --> 01:25:09,920 the blink rate also from the lights was 2431 01:25:14,550 --> 01:25:11,920 phil it was exactly what we have as a 2432 01:25:16,870 --> 01:25:14,560 standard for navigation lights it was 2433 01:25:20,149 --> 01:25:16,880 blinking at the rate 2434 01:25:21,910 --> 01:25:20,159 that you have for other aircraft so 2435 01:25:23,990 --> 01:25:21,920 who's were they then 2436 01:25:26,310 --> 01:25:24,000 well again the origin you wouldn't be 2437 01:25:27,910 --> 01:25:26,320 able to determine right and that's why 2438 01:25:29,750 --> 01:25:27,920 we're concerned about it because we're 2439 01:25:31,350 --> 01:25:29,760 saying like we don't know could a 2440 01:25:33,110 --> 01:25:31,360 submarine have been over there and 2441 01:25:34,950 --> 01:25:33,120 launched drones and they're testing it 2442 01:25:38,149 --> 01:25:34,960 on our people and then they're under 2443 01:25:40,390 --> 01:25:38,159 water and it comes back or is it was it 2444 01:25:42,550 --> 01:25:40,400 launched from space or something of that 2445 01:25:44,470 --> 01:25:42,560 nature dropped from an aircraft 2446 01:25:46,870 --> 01:25:44,480 people are doing a mill i mean groups 2447 01:25:48,709 --> 01:25:46,880 are testing military swarm technology 2448 01:25:49,910 --> 01:25:48,719 they've got other kinds of fuel systems 2449 01:25:51,830 --> 01:25:49,920 on these things 2450 01:25:53,590 --> 01:25:51,840 and so you have to understand that you 2451 01:25:55,270 --> 01:25:53,600 know i used to think well i've got a 2452 01:25:57,030 --> 01:25:55,280 drone i fly it out here but i have a 2453 01:25:59,030 --> 01:25:57,040 battery on it right well these things 2454 01:26:00,709 --> 01:25:59,040 are you've got fuel on them 2455 01:26:02,629 --> 01:26:00,719 and they could stay up for long times 2456 01:26:04,229 --> 01:26:02,639 and shoot up but incredible and and so 2457 01:26:06,310 --> 01:26:04,239 that's what we're talking about we have 2458 01:26:08,950 --> 01:26:06,320 to like understand that drone technology 2459 01:26:11,830 --> 01:26:08,960 is way advanced and we're putting 2460 01:26:13,750 --> 01:26:11,840 together across the world all different 2461 01:26:16,229 --> 01:26:13,760 kinds of drones with all kinds of 2462 01:26:18,149 --> 01:26:16,239 capabilities that have in themselves 2463 01:26:20,070 --> 01:26:18,159 that can do jamming they can do a whole 2464 01:26:22,149 --> 01:26:20,080 variety of things that the objects 2465 01:26:25,189 --> 01:26:22,159 allegedly are doing as well so we have 2466 01:26:27,189 --> 01:26:25,199 to now discern between those 2467 01:26:29,030 --> 01:26:27,199 uh you you to point out to me some 2468 01:26:31,350 --> 01:26:29,040 country either us or russia or china 2469 01:26:32,950 --> 01:26:31,360 that can pull a few hundred g 2470 01:26:34,310 --> 01:26:32,960 several tens of thousands of miles an 2471 01:26:36,149 --> 01:26:34,320 hour 2472 01:26:38,870 --> 01:26:36,159 like i said before it's not going to 2473 01:26:41,590 --> 01:26:38,880 explain the tic tac okay yeah yeah yeah 2474 01:26:43,110 --> 01:26:41,600 i got you you know i mean that 2475 01:26:45,110 --> 01:26:43,120 so you're you might have a mixture of 2476 01:26:47,669 --> 01:26:45,120 both you know and it's we just have to 2477 01:26:49,110 --> 01:26:47,679 know right yeah yeah 2478 01:26:50,709 --> 01:26:49,120 well listen gentlemen we're getting 2479 01:26:52,790 --> 01:26:50,719 closing in on the hour and a half mark 2480 01:26:54,470 --> 01:26:52,800 so before we go if you can each just 2481 01:26:55,750 --> 01:26:54,480 give us a little bit of what's going on 2482 01:26:57,189 --> 01:26:55,760 for you next obviously which we 2483 01:26:59,189 --> 01:26:57,199 discussed about the conference but 2484 01:27:00,550 --> 01:26:59,199 anything else you're working on and 2485 01:27:02,470 --> 01:27:00,560 all your links will be in the the 2486 01:27:04,070 --> 01:27:02,480 description below but yeah if you could 2487 01:27:05,350 --> 01:27:04,080 just give us that little bit of info 2488 01:27:07,110 --> 01:27:05,360 before we say goodbye that would be 2489 01:27:08,229 --> 01:27:07,120 great thank you 2490 01:27:10,070 --> 01:27:08,239 well i mean 2491 01:27:10,870 --> 01:27:10,080 yeah my life's eaten up by conference in 2492 01:27:12,629 --> 01:27:10,880 fact 2493 01:27:15,510 --> 01:27:12,639 you know that that whole thing is every 2494 01:27:17,189 --> 01:27:15,520 day i mean matthew probably can tell you 2495 01:27:20,149 --> 01:27:17,199 michael can tell you that these things 2496 01:27:22,229 --> 01:27:20,159 are pretty complex so my life is my life 2497 01:27:23,910 --> 01:27:22,239 is what that's why i didn't know about 2498 01:27:25,830 --> 01:27:23,920 the answers the questions that we were 2499 01:27:28,229 --> 01:27:25,840 asking to because i haven't had time to 2500 01:27:30,470 --> 01:27:28,239 deal with that right so to be that to be 2501 01:27:32,470 --> 01:27:30,480 fair i'm i'm glad that i was able to 2502 01:27:33,189 --> 01:27:32,480 share with you what i could about it but 2503 01:27:35,270 --> 01:27:33,199 uh 2504 01:27:37,510 --> 01:27:35,280 that's where i'm at right now my life is 2505 01:27:39,189 --> 01:27:37,520 all conference so i'll pass over to 2506 01:27:46,550 --> 01:27:39,199 matthew or somebody else to be able to 2507 01:27:50,470 --> 01:27:48,149 well we've got well like i said earlier 2508 01:27:52,709 --> 01:27:50,480 we got a ton of data to go through 2509 01:27:55,270 --> 01:27:52,719 that we want to share with scu and lo 2510 01:27:58,470 --> 01:27:55,280 the long game is we want to be able to 2511 01:28:00,070 --> 01:27:58,480 get break the cycle of their almost no 2512 01:28:02,390 --> 01:28:00,080 publications there are exceptions as you 2513 01:28:03,350 --> 01:28:02,400 mentioned rich there's um the paper that 2514 01:28:05,830 --> 01:28:03,360 kevin 2515 01:28:08,390 --> 01:28:05,840 um peter really robert powell got in in 2516 01:28:09,990 --> 01:28:08,400 a journal in entropy those are more the 2517 01:28:11,990 --> 01:28:10,000 exception than the rule i can probably 2518 01:28:13,669 --> 01:28:12,000 count on the fingers of you i'm sure 2519 01:28:15,510 --> 01:28:13,679 you're familiar with all of them i've 2520 01:28:17,270 --> 01:28:15,520 seen like russia this is a russian one 2521 01:28:20,470 --> 01:28:17,280 and stuff i can count on the fingers of 2522 01:28:23,270 --> 01:28:20,480 one hand the number of papers on ufos 2523 01:28:25,430 --> 01:28:23,280 and uap published in real 2524 01:28:28,229 --> 01:28:25,440 journals like high quality high impact 2525 01:28:30,070 --> 01:28:28,239 factor scientific journals it's like 2526 01:28:32,629 --> 01:28:30,080 maybe a second hand i don't think i need 2527 01:28:34,390 --> 01:28:32,639 the second hand yet though and so i i 2528 01:28:36,550 --> 01:28:34,400 think that we want to break through that 2529 01:28:37,990 --> 01:28:36,560 stigma more and that taboo because 2530 01:28:39,990 --> 01:28:38,000 everyone's talking about oh the stigma 2531 01:28:42,229 --> 01:28:40,000 is gone i know it's not it's definitely 2532 01:28:45,189 --> 01:28:42,239 reduced it's mitigated and i'm glad they 2533 01:28:47,830 --> 01:28:45,199 brought this up at the hearing but again 2534 01:28:49,910 --> 01:28:47,840 mitigation is not the same thing as 2535 01:28:53,270 --> 01:28:49,920 elimination there's still plenty of 2536 01:28:53,990 --> 01:28:53,280 stigma in taboo and so we know on uapx 2537 01:28:58,790 --> 01:28:54,000 as 2538 01:29:00,950 --> 01:28:58,800 uphill battle to get anything published 2539 01:29:03,350 --> 01:29:00,960 because people will be like oh ufos and 2540 01:29:04,149 --> 01:29:03,360 laugh at us and so but that's the long 2541 01:29:07,110 --> 01:29:04,159 game 2542 01:29:09,510 --> 01:29:07,120 is to publish actual papers saying 2543 01:29:12,070 --> 01:29:09,520 here's some atmospheric anomaly you know 2544 01:29:13,990 --> 01:29:12,080 we've we've found so so that's really 2545 01:29:15,830 --> 01:29:14,000 where we're focused right now although i 2546 01:29:17,350 --> 01:29:15,840 have to confess 2547 01:29:19,430 --> 01:29:17,360 you know it's really a side job because 2548 01:29:21,830 --> 01:29:19,440 my day job is to look for dark matter 2549 01:29:23,189 --> 01:29:21,840 and i'm paid to do that and so 2550 01:29:26,229 --> 01:29:23,199 unfortunately 2551 01:29:28,149 --> 01:29:26,239 i can only do uap stuff in my free time 2552 01:29:30,070 --> 01:29:28,159 which i put in air quotes because i have 2553 01:29:32,390 --> 01:29:30,080 none because i have four children 2554 01:29:33,830 --> 01:29:32,400 also but but re and and really this year 2555 01:29:35,510 --> 01:29:33,840 the dark matter experiment that i've 2556 01:29:37,430 --> 01:29:35,520 been working on probably over 10 years 2557 01:29:39,750 --> 01:29:37,440 largest one the world is turning on has 2558 01:29:41,990 --> 01:29:39,760 already turned on and so i've really got 2559 01:29:44,149 --> 01:29:42,000 to focus on the mainstream my mainstream 2560 01:29:45,669 --> 01:29:44,159 scientific effort um that's another 2561 01:29:47,430 --> 01:29:45,679 reason why we need more people when 2562 01:29:49,750 --> 01:29:47,440 we're bringing people to help 2563 01:29:51,990 --> 01:29:49,760 look through the uapx data so i mean if 2564 01:29:53,750 --> 01:29:52,000 you wanted a near future summary for me 2565 01:29:55,110 --> 01:29:53,760 there you have it that's pretty looking 2566 01:29:57,110 --> 01:29:55,120 forward to the conference really looking 2567 01:29:59,590 --> 01:29:57,120 forward to seeing rich in person and 2568 01:30:01,669 --> 01:29:59,600 everybody else i'm really really great 2569 01:30:03,189 --> 01:30:01,679 to see people to see people in person 2570 01:30:05,189 --> 01:30:03,199 again looking forward to the conference 2571 01:30:07,590 --> 01:30:05,199 and i really we really hope that our 2572 01:30:09,669 --> 01:30:07,600 talk that kevin and i and christopher 2573 01:30:11,750 --> 01:30:09,679 altman will be giving will really blow 2574 01:30:14,149 --> 01:30:11,760 you away we hope 2575 01:30:18,830 --> 01:30:14,159 i'm sure it will uh so michael before we 2576 01:30:24,229 --> 01:30:21,270 on yeah i see you just hit the 90 minute 2577 01:30:26,390 --> 01:30:24,239 mark so i'll try to keep it short but 2578 01:30:29,189 --> 01:30:26,400 much like rich uh my life has been 2579 01:30:31,669 --> 01:30:29,199 consumed by one thing and one thing only 2580 01:30:33,350 --> 01:30:31,679 um i've been putting in 14 16 hour days 2581 01:30:35,590 --> 01:30:33,360 trying to get this book finished get the 2582 01:30:38,070 --> 01:30:35,600 audio book recorded um but it's almost 2583 01:30:40,950 --> 01:30:38,080 done i think it'll be out june 1st in 2584 01:30:42,709 --> 01:30:40,960 all three formats ebook paperback and 2585 01:30:44,470 --> 01:30:42,719 audiobook i know i'm excited too it's 2586 01:30:46,390 --> 01:30:44,480 it's it's different than the first one 2587 01:30:48,390 --> 01:30:46,400 it really goes deep into the abduction 2588 01:30:50,709 --> 01:30:48,400 aspect sort of a john mackien approach 2589 01:30:53,350 --> 01:30:50,719 to some extent and um you know 2590 01:30:56,229 --> 01:30:53,360 cautiously examines the abduction and 2591 01:30:58,390 --> 01:30:56,239 contact he aspect of the phenomenon i've 2592 01:31:00,470 --> 01:30:58,400 met so many experiencers over the last 2593 01:31:02,390 --> 01:31:00,480 three years and it's just amazing to me 2594 01:31:04,870 --> 01:31:02,400 the consistency across their reports and 2595 01:31:07,830 --> 01:31:04,880 what happened to them by who what type 2596 01:31:10,070 --> 01:31:07,840 of ship what type of experience they had 2597
