00:18:14,789 --> 00:18:10,400 are causing the on-board software to 318 00:18:16,150 --> 00:18:14,799 flip out and lock on the mazda's radio 319 00:18:19,909 --> 00:18:16,160 right there 320 00:18:23,190 --> 00:18:21,350 note to all of the radio station 321 00:18:26,549 --> 00:18:23,200 marketing people out there this is how 322 00:18:29,270 --> 00:18:26,559 you get more listeners on the cheap 323 00:18:31,350 --> 00:18:29,280 screw up the file extensions 324 00:18:33,430 --> 00:18:31,360 european scientists say they have a 325 00:18:34,630 --> 00:18:33,440 major breakthrough in their quest to 326 00:18:38,150 --> 00:18:34,640 develop 327 00:18:41,590 --> 00:18:38,160 practical nuclear fusion the energy 328 00:18:43,430 --> 00:18:41,600 process that powers our sun and the 329 00:18:46,870 --> 00:18:43,440 stars 330 00:18:48,789 --> 00:18:46,880 the uk-based jet laboratory has smashed 331 00:18:50,789 --> 00:18:48,799 its own world record for the amount of 332 00:18:53,750 --> 00:18:50,799 energy it can extract by squeezing 333 00:18:56,150 --> 00:18:53,760 together two forms of hydrogen 334 00:18:58,710 --> 00:18:56,160 if nuclear fusion can be successfully 335 00:19:00,950 --> 00:18:58,720 recreated here on earth it holds out the 336 00:19:03,590 --> 00:19:00,960 potential of virtually unlimited 337 00:19:05,270 --> 00:19:03,600 supplies of low carbon 338 00:19:09,110 --> 00:19:05,280 low radiation 339 00:19:12,950 --> 00:19:09,120 energy the experiments produce 59 340 00:19:15,350 --> 00:19:12,960 megajoules of energy over 5 seconds 11 341 00:19:17,270 --> 00:19:15,360 megawatts of power this is more than 342 00:19:21,110 --> 00:19:17,280 double what was achieved in similar 343 00:19:24,230 --> 00:19:21,120 tests all the way back in 1997. 344 00:19:26,950 --> 00:19:24,240 now it's not a massive energy output 345 00:19:29,669 --> 00:19:26,960 only enough to boil about 60 kettles 346 00:19:32,390 --> 00:19:29,679 worth of water but the significance is 347 00:19:35,190 --> 00:19:32,400 that it validates design choices that 348 00:19:38,549 --> 00:19:35,200 have been made for even a bigger fusion 349 00:19:40,710 --> 00:19:38,559 reactor that is being built right now 350 00:19:44,150 --> 00:19:40,720 in france 351 00:19:45,510 --> 00:19:44,160 well the james webb telescope 352 00:19:47,750 --> 00:19:45,520 has begun 353 00:19:50,230 --> 00:19:47,760 the three-month process of aligning the 354 00:19:52,870 --> 00:19:50,240 system in the past day or so for the 355 00:19:55,110 --> 00:19:52,880 first time photons from distant stars 356 00:19:57,430 --> 00:19:55,120 traveled through the entire telescope 357 00:20:00,070 --> 00:19:57,440 and were detected by the web's near 358 00:20:01,590 --> 00:20:00,080 infrared camera otherwise called the 359 00:20:04,230 --> 00:20:01,600 near cam 360 00:20:06,390 --> 00:20:04,240 instrument it was a huge moment in 361 00:20:07,990 --> 00:20:06,400 itself and it lays the groundwork for 362 00:20:10,470 --> 00:20:08,000 alignment and finishing the process 363 00:20:11,750 --> 00:20:10,480 which relies on data collected by the 364 00:20:14,789 --> 00:20:11,760 near cam 365 00:20:17,510 --> 00:20:14,799 webb's 21-foot primary mirror consists 366 00:20:20,230 --> 00:20:17,520 of 18 hexagonal segments 367 00:20:22,710 --> 00:20:20,240 which launched in a compact uh 368 00:20:25,350 --> 00:20:22,720 configuration right all folded up 369 00:20:27,990 --> 00:20:25,360 and it unfolded after it got into space 370 00:20:30,549 --> 00:20:28,000 the alignment process will get all 18 371 00:20:31,669 --> 00:20:30,559 working as a single light collecting 372 00:20:33,990 --> 00:20:31,679 surface 373 00:20:36,230 --> 00:20:34,000 there are seven phases that it's going 374 00:20:40,070 --> 00:20:36,240 to go through for this alignment which 375 00:20:44,549 --> 00:20:40,080 will key on imagery web captures of the 376 00:20:46,390 --> 00:20:44,559 bright star hd 84406 377 00:20:47,510 --> 00:20:46,400 the mission team will take photos of the 378 00:20:50,789 --> 00:20:47,520 star 379 00:20:52,710 --> 00:20:50,799 and each one of the 18 mirror segments 380 00:20:55,430 --> 00:20:52,720 they'll take that they'll line 381 00:20:57,909 --> 00:20:55,440 everything up and that information will 382 00:21:00,070 --> 00:20:57,919 shift the segments into their proper 383 00:21:03,270 --> 00:21:00,080 positions 384 00:21:04,149 --> 00:21:03,280 we are months away more on that in just 385 00:21:07,430 --> 00:21:04,159 a bit 386 00:21:09,430 --> 00:21:07,440

editorial behind the 848 00:40:35,430 --> 00:40:32,960 scenes helping me 849 00:40:37,430 --> 00:40:35,440 at this point i want to talk with you 850 00:40:38,870 --> 00:40:37,440 about just you know passing that along 851 00:40:41,190 --> 00:40:38,880 which seemed like a natural thing 852 00:40:44,069 --> 00:40:41,200 because i mean honestly uh i think we're 853 00:40:45,990 --> 00:40:44,079 all mj and i especially editors in some 854 00:40:47,910 --> 00:40:46,000 capacity that's the thing at the debrief 855 00:40:49,670 --> 00:40:47,920 the way we've done this since we 856 00:40:50,630 --> 00:40:49,680 launched everybody is wearing several 857 00:40:52,150 --> 00:40:50,640 hats 858 00:40:54,230 --> 00:40:52,160 but you know again i think that's also 859 00:40:56,470 --> 00:40:54,240 been better in many ways and so yeah i'm 860 00:40:58,550 --> 00:40:56,480 fiercely proud of it um i'm sure i won't 861 00:41:00,470 --> 00:40:58,560 be the last guy to wear this hat right 862 00:41:02,230 --> 00:41:00,480 now i'm following the footsteps of the 863 00:41:03,670 --> 00:41:02,240 great work that mj did 864 00:41:04,790 --> 00:41:03,680 and definitely kind of doing things a 865 00:41:06,470 --> 00:41:04,800 little differently one of the great 866 00:41:08,150 --> 00:41:06,480 benefits tim mcmillan and i we get to 867 00:41:09,910 --> 00:41:08,160 work a lot more closely in this regard 868 00:41:11,750 --> 00:41:09,920 but you know keeping this ship running 869 00:41:14,309 --> 00:41:11,760 has been great and boy i tell you i 870 00:41:16,550 --> 00:41:14,319 don't think it's every day of the week 871 00:41:21,190 --> 00:41:16,560 that somebody takes a gig like this or 872 00:41:22,790 --> 00:41:21,200 or assumes a new priority or a new uh 873 00:41:24,069 --> 00:41:22,800 aspect of the business that they have to 874 00:41:25,349 --> 00:41:24,079 manage in addition to other things 875 00:41:26,630 --> 00:41:25,359 because i've been doing the newsletter 876 00:41:28,950 --> 00:41:26,640 i've been also one of our features 877 00:41:31,030 --> 00:41:28,960 riders also you know news reporter you 878 00:41:33,030 --> 00:41:31,040 know i've been doing some site design 879 00:41:35,829 --> 00:41:33,040 and maintenance on the side too 880 00:41:37,430 --> 00:41:35,839 lots of different hats but uh my first 881 00:41:39,109 --> 00:41:37,440 official gig 882 00:41:40,870 --> 00:41:39,119 assuming this position 883 00:41:43,430 --> 00:41:40,880 was a little article by christopher 884 00:41:45,750 --> 00:41:43,440 mellon right about about why the air 885 00:41:47,910 --> 00:41:45,760 force is awol on the uap issue so that 886 00:41:50,950 --> 00:41:47,920 was quite a wild ride jimmy yeah it had 887 00:41:51,990 --> 00:41:50,960 to have been because uh it's a lengthy 888 00:41:55,109 --> 00:41:52,000 article 889 00:41:58,069 --> 00:41:55,119 and and my concern was you have to have 890 00:42:00,309 --> 00:41:58,079 taken english in high school you didn't 891 00:42:01,430 --> 00:42:00,319 you majored in metal shop 892 00:42:06,710 --> 00:42:01,440 so 893 00:42:08,390 --> 00:42:06,720 you know all kidding aside when he says 894 00:42:10,870 --> 00:42:08,400 metal shop ladies and gents he means 895 00:42:12,550 --> 00:42:10,880 playing a stratocaster in my bedroom for 896 00:42:13,910 --> 00:42:12,560 eight hours a day instead of doing my 897 00:42:16,390 --> 00:42:13,920 homework but 898 00:42:17,990 --> 00:42:16,400 no i actually did pass english honors 899 00:42:19,750 --> 00:42:18,000 with straight a's 900 00:42:20,790 --> 00:42:19,760 you know what i was great 901 00:42:23,750 --> 00:42:20,800 english 902 00:42:26,470 --> 00:42:23,760 in in school for me 903 00:42:27,270 --> 00:42:26,480 i enjoyed it i excelled always straight 904 00:42:29,910 --> 00:42:27,280 a's 905 00:42:31,430 --> 00:42:29,920 it was just math with me 906 00:42:33,589 --> 00:42:31,440 there was no way i was going to be a 907 00:42:35,829 --> 00:42:33,599 physicist or a rocket scientist that was 908 00:42:37,190 --> 00:42:35,839 not in my future is that just a guitar 909 00:42:38,950 --> 00:42:37,200 player thing jimmy because i mean it was 910 00:42:40,710 --> 00:42:38,960 the same way with me i could sleep 911 00:42:43,750 --> 00:42:40,720 through english honors and make straight 912 00:42:45,270 --> 00:42:43,760 a's right but math was always and i've 913 00:42:47,109 --> 00:42:45,280 always just assumed you're either like a 914 00:42:49,910 --> 00:42:47,119 letter person or you're a number person 915 00:42:51,270 --> 00:42:49,920 right right right right right and no i 916 00:42:54,069 --> 00:42:51,280 agree with that 917 00:42:56,790 --> 00:42:54,079 it's uh one side of the creative brain 918 00:42:59,990 --> 00:42:56,800 is is going to be okay 919 00:43:01,910 --> 00:43:00,000 with certain things in excel and then 920 00:43:04,470 --> 00:43:01,920 you don't have i just don't think you 921 00:43:05,990 --> 00:43:04,480 can do it all so your brain is like okay 922 00:43:07,030 --> 00:43:06,000 i'm cool with this you're going to be 923 00:43:08,630 --> 00:43:07,040 great 924 00:43:10,950 --> 00:43:08,640 you're just not going to be a rocket 925 00:43:12,630 --> 00:43:10,960 scientist so you need to change you're 926 00:43:13,910 --> 00:43:12,640 not going to be a chemist 927 00:43:15,109 --> 00:43:13,920 i'll tell you where the math started 928 00:43:16,950 --> 00:43:15,119 really coming together for me though and 929 00:43:19,589 --> 00:43:16,960 there's a great book by professor jordan 930 00:43:21,750 --> 00:43:19,599 ellenberg called how not to be wrong the 931 00:43:23,829 --> 00:43:21,760 power of mathematical thinking 932 00:43:25,750 --> 00:43:23,839 when you can start applying math 933 00:43:28,309 --> 00:43:25,760 to things in the real world see that's a 934 00:43:29,910 --> 00:43:28,319 class i avoided back when i was you know 935 00:43:32,230 --> 00:43:29,920 maybe a freshman sophomore in high 936 00:43:33,990 --> 00:43:32,240 school never wanted to take physics 937 00:43:35,510 --> 00:43:34,000 but then when i started realizing oh 938 00:43:37,190 --> 00:43:35,520 wait hold on you mean you can use 939 00:43:38,950 --> 00:43:37,200 equations 940 00:43:41,109 --> 00:43:38,960 to express 941 00:43:43,109 --> 00:43:41,119 you know fundamental behaviors of 942 00:43:44,390 --> 00:43:43,119 reality as we know it 943 00:43:46,790 --> 00:43:44,400 that's when it started getting 944 00:43:48,309 --> 00:43:46,800 fascinating and you know so in my later 945 00:43:49,270 --> 00:43:48,319 high school years and then on into 946 00:43:50,950 --> 00:43:49,280 college 947 00:43:52,230 --> 00:43:50,960 uh you know keep in mind by the way i 948 00:43:54,309 --> 00:43:52,240 dropped out of college to go work in 949 00:43:56,710 --> 00:43:54,319 radio right that's the truth but but i 950 00:43:58,630 --> 00:43:56,720 never stopped learning i i i'm still of 951 00:44:00,309 --> 00:43:58,640 course always have my nose in a book but 952 00:44:02,069 --> 00:44:00,319 man reading einstein there's that 953 00:44:02,950 --> 00:44:02,079 misconception that oh einstein was bad 954 00:44:04,870 --> 00:44:02,960 at math 955 00:44:06,390 --> 00:44:04,880 that very well may have been true but he 956 00:44:07,510 --> 00:44:06,400 was obviously good enough to have been 957 00:44:10,230 --> 00:44:07,520 able to 958 00:44:11,670 --> 00:44:10,240 precisely work out with elegance the 959 00:44:14,309 --> 00:44:11,680 equations 960 00:44:15,510 --> 00:44:14,319 that outlined the reworking of our 961 00:44:17,510 --> 00:44:15,520 knowledge of the universe that he 962 00:44:19,430 --> 00:44:17,520 presented us with general relativity and 963 00:44:21,109 --> 00:44:19,440 you go back and you read his writing 964 00:44:22,470 --> 00:44:21,119 again he seemed to be more like one of 965 00:44:24,790 --> 00:44:22,480 those english guys 966 00:44:25,990 --> 00:44:24,800 and he once said i'm paraphrasing he 967 00:44:26,950 --> 00:44:26,000 said a lot of great things but this is 968 00:44:29,589 --> 00:44:26,960 one of them 969 00:44:31,510 --> 00:44:29,599 einstein said uh it's not necessarily 970 00:44:33,750 --> 00:44:31,520 that i'm smarter than anybody else but 971 00:44:35,510 --> 00:44:33,760 i've definitely stuck with the problems 972 00:44:37,510 --> 00:44:35,520 for longer yes 973 00:44:40,630 --> 00:44:37,520 yes you did say that he didn't say that 974 00:44:44,230 --> 00:44:40,640 and here's here's what i did micah 975 00:44:46,309 --> 00:44:44,240 um the great courses which i subscribe 976 00:44:49,670 --> 00:44:46,319 to i i love it 977 00:44:51,990 --> 00:44:49,680 um some most are 30 uh 978 00:44:54,550 --> 00:44:52,000 uh long or 30 979 00:44:56,630 --> 00:44:54,560 segments long it's a it's a an 980 00:44:59,589 --> 00:44:56,640 investment of time so 981 00:45:01,750 --> 00:44:59,599 i take the physics course yeah okay i 982 00:45:02,790 --> 00:45:01,760 know you did yeah i take the physics 983 00:45:05,990 --> 00:45:02,800 course 984 00:45:08,790 --> 00:45:06,000 and and i get like uh 985 00:45:10,790 --> 00:45:08,800 right after the first and then i get to 986 00:45:12,550 --> 00:45:10,800 i'm like wait a minute here 987 00:45:13,670 --> 00:45:12,560 physics is easy 988 00:45:14,950 --> 00:45:13,680 right now 989 00:45:17,430 --> 00:45:14,960 it's so you know they take you to the 990 00:45:19,510 --> 00:45:17,440 basics how to solve 991 00:45:20,870 --> 00:45:19,520 you know the a basic thing about here's 992 00:45:22,550 --> 00:45:20,880 the thing here's the mass here's the 993 00:45:23,829 --> 00:45:22,560 thing and it's got to go from point a to 994 00:45:24,790 --> 00:45:23,839 point b you got the distance you're 995 00:45:26,230 --> 00:45:24,800 gonna 996 00:45:27,270 --> 00:45:26,240 you know plug in the 997 00:45:28,630 --> 00:45:27,280 and um 998 00:45:32,069 --> 00:45:28,640 so 999 00:45:34,630 --> 00:45:32,079 i get to like four i get through four 1000 00:45:36,550 --> 00:45:34,640 i'm taking notes man i'm being i'm you 1001 00:45:37,910 --> 00:45:36,560 know i'm taking this real serious 1002 00:45:39,670 --> 00:45:37,920 yeah i'm glad you are and i wish more 1003 00:45:42,790 --> 00:45:39,680 other people would well no hold on hold 1004 00:45:45,109 --> 00:45:42,800 on i didn't finish oh i'll go here i got 1005 00:45:46,390 --> 00:45:45,119 to four and i was like i can't do this 1006 00:45:47,910 --> 00:45:46,400 man 1007 00:45:48,870 --> 00:45:47,920 i'm done 1008 00:45:53,030 --> 00:45:48,880 i i 1009 00:45:55,109 --> 00:45:53,040 i fooled myself physics is easy 1010 00:45:55,829 --> 00:45:55,119 no no it uh 1011 00:45:57,990 --> 00:45:55,839 no 1012 00:46:01,190 --> 00:45:58,000 there's 26 more 1013 00:46:03,510 --> 00:46:01,200 uh courses in that in that block that 1014 00:46:06,150 --> 00:46:03,520 will never be seen by me 1015 00:46:08,390 --> 00:46:06,160 um but let's just say it's easy up until 1016 00:46:10,710 --> 00:46:08,400 you have to start learning calculus but 1017 00:46:12,230 --> 00:46:10,720 now imagine if you had been isaac newton 1018 00:46:14,950 --> 00:46:12,240 and rather than just having to learn the 1019 00:46:16,470 --> 00:46:14,960 calculus you had to develop it invent it 1020 00:46:18,550 --> 00:46:16,480 yes 1021 00:46:20,230 --> 00:46:18,560 a whole new like branch of mathematics 1022 00:46:22,870 --> 00:46:20,240 just that you could calculate like the 1023 00:46:24,630 --> 00:46:22,880 the the curvature right you know i mean 1024 00:46:27,430 --> 00:46:24,640 it's incredible but you know what also 1025 00:46:30,069 --> 00:46:27,440 is incredible to me about 1026 00:46:31,829 --> 00:46:30,079 the creation of calculus i actually am 1027 00:46:33,430 --> 00:46:31,839 enough of a dork now that i have all 1028 00:46:35,109 --> 00:46:33,440 kinds of books on the history of 1029 00:46:36,470 --> 00:46:35,119 mathematics and the history of science 1030 00:46:38,630 --> 00:46:36,480 that's a subject that really interests 1031 00:46:40,630 --> 00:46:38,640 me right and in a book i have on the 1032 00:46:42,870 --> 00:46:40,640 history of calculus of course you know 1033 00:46:44,309 --> 00:46:42,880 you had you had newton that was 1034 00:46:46,550 --> 00:46:44,319 developing this but then you also had 1035 00:46:48,790 --> 00:46:46,560 the german mathematician right 1036 00:46:50,150 --> 00:46:48,800 lipstick i believe who was also at the 1037 00:46:51,829 --> 00:46:50,160 same time 1038 00:46:53,990 --> 00:46:51,839 developing that now 1039 00:46:55,829 --> 00:46:54,000 it seemed in that instance that it was a 1040 00:46:58,390 --> 00:46:55,839 fairly 1041 00:46:59,750 --> 00:46:58,400 logical necessity at that point at the 1042 00:47:01,589 --> 00:46:59,760 current state of knowledge that they 1043 00:47:03,510 --> 00:47:01,599 would both be developing 1044 00:47:05,109 --> 00:47:03,520 what we would recognize as calculus 1045 00:47:06,710 --> 00:47:05,119 today but what's really fascinating is 1046 00:47:08,470 --> 00:47:06,720 that when you look more deeply at the 1047 00:47:10,470 --> 00:47:08,480 history of science 1048 00:47:14,390 --> 00:47:10,480 you all you actually often see the 1049 00:47:15,910 --> 00:47:14,400 simultaneous discovery at almost i mean 1050 00:47:17,109 --> 00:47:15,920 literally i mean the same time but in 1051 00:47:19,349 --> 00:47:17,119 different parts of the world where there 1052 00:47:20,630 --> 00:47:19,359 is such a degree of separation that two 1053 00:47:22,630 --> 00:47:20,640 people never could have known one 1054 00:47:24,150 --> 00:47:22,640 another or could have been rivals 1055 00:47:26,390 --> 00:47:24,160 uh is in the aforementioned case with 1056 00:47:28,710 --> 00:47:26,400 newton i mean the simultaneous 1057 00:47:29,430 --> 00:47:28,720 innovation of ideas it's almost like 1058 00:47:31,670 --> 00:47:29,440 it's 1059 00:47:33,270 --> 00:47:31,680 like ideas emerge into 1060 00:47:34,390 --> 00:47:33,280 human consciousness now this is going to 1061 00:47:36,470 --> 00:47:34,400 sound a little out there but i mean bear 1062 00:47:39,109 --> 00:47:36,480 with me it's almost like these ideas 1063 00:47:40,790 --> 00:47:39,119 kind of are just kind of sprinkled 1064 00:47:43,190 --> 00:47:40,800 into our reality and some people start 1065 00:47:45,510 --> 00:47:43,200 working on it and the discovery put up 1066 00:47:47,190 --> 00:47:45,520 air quotes happens simultaneously but in 1067 00:47:48,950 --> 00:47:47,200 more than one place that actually is 1068 00:47:50,630 --> 00:47:48,960 something that is recorded throughout 1069 00:47:52,950 --> 00:47:50,640 history more than once and that that 1070 00:47:54,309 --> 00:47:52,960 really fascinates me yeah yeah you know 1071 00:47:57,430 --> 00:47:54,319 tycho bray 1072 00:47:59,670 --> 00:47:57,440 uh when he was working on galileo 1073 00:48:02,390 --> 00:47:59,680 they're trying to figure out uh how to 1074 00:48:04,390 --> 00:48:02,400 put together a telescope and how how to 1075 00:48:06,870 --> 00:48:04,400 polish lenses and 1076 00:48:08,309 --> 00:48:06,880 and and they ended up through great 1077 00:48:10,950 --> 00:48:08,319 distances you know they didn't have 1078 00:48:12,470 --> 00:48:10,960 telephones but they got a correspondence 1079 00:48:14,390 --> 00:48:12,480 going but that was 1080 00:48:15,349 --> 00:48:14,400 a different uh 1081 00:48:18,710 --> 00:48:15,359 different 1082 00:48:21,589 --> 00:48:18,720 yes um how do i uh how do i say this 1083 00:48:23,190 --> 00:48:21,599 different views of math 1084 00:48:25,349 --> 00:48:23,200 and what would turn into physics it was 1085 00:48:28,390 --> 00:48:25,359 basically philosophy back then but would 1086 00:48:31,030 --> 00:48:28,400 turn into physics and in geometry 1087 00:48:33,510 --> 00:48:31,040 everybody was okay 1088 00:48:35,910 --> 00:48:33,520 with talking to others that were trying 1089 00:48:38,549 --> 00:48:35,920 to move this forward because there were 1090 00:48:41,190 --> 00:48:38,559 plenty of institutions that were pushing 1091 00:48:42,870 --> 00:48:41,200 them down and holding them back 1092 00:48:44,870 --> 00:48:42,880 so the only way that they could move 1093 00:48:46,950 --> 00:48:44,880 this forward is have a little 1094 00:48:49,430 --> 00:48:46,960 correspondence with a couple of other 1095 00:48:51,430 --> 00:48:49,440 like-minded people out there without 1096 00:48:54,309 --> 00:48:51,440 discussing it and newton had the 1097 00:48:57,270 --> 00:48:54,319 challenge see because at that time 1098 00:48:59,349 --> 00:48:57,280 newton had his toes dipped in like three 1099 00:49:01,510 --> 00:48:59,359 or four camps 1100 00:49:03,270 --> 00:49:01,520 um alchemy 1101 00:49:04,470 --> 00:49:03,280 religion 1102 00:49:07,270 --> 00:49:04,480 math 1103 00:49:10,230 --> 00:49:07,280 right and and he was a 1104 00:49:12,150 --> 00:49:10,240 student of all of that and wanted to 1105 00:49:13,990 --> 00:49:12,160 learn about all of that wanted to write 1106 00:49:17,030 --> 00:49:14,000 about all of that wanted to teach about 1107 00:49:18,790 --> 00:49:17,040 all of it but you couldn't mix it up 1108 00:49:21,109 --> 00:49:18,800 you couldn't do it and he was dipping 1109 00:49:22,309 --> 00:49:21,119 his toes in all of it at the same time 1110 00:49:26,309 --> 00:49:22,319 and 1111 00:49:29,190 --> 00:49:26,319 i think uh didn't he ultimately 1112 00:49:32,549 --> 00:49:29,200 didn't he succumbed to uh didn't he have 1113 00:49:34,870 --> 00:49:32,559 like he had some kind of toxic poisoning 1114 00:49:36,230 --> 00:49:34,880 in the end right was it lead poisoning 1115 00:49:38,150 --> 00:49:36,240 what was it that 1116 00:49:39,829 --> 00:49:38,160 that took him down 1117 00:49:42,309 --> 00:49:39,839 i'm not sure 1118 00:49:45,750 --> 00:49:42,319 was it mercury poisoning they they 1119 00:49:48,150 --> 00:49:45,760 tested his hair um you know recently of 1120 00:49:50,870 --> 00:49:48,160 hair you know his hair samples it was 1121 00:49:53,109 --> 00:49:50,880 like mercury so he's doing his 1122 00:49:55,829 --> 00:49:53,119 alchemical you know trying to you know 1123 00:49:57,990 --> 00:49:55,839 the philosopher's stone and trying to to 1124 00:49:59,829 --> 00:49:58,000 to crank out some gold at the house i 1125 00:50:01,750 --> 00:49:59,839 don't know i'm making stuff up please 1126 00:50:03,990 --> 00:50:01,760 everybody save your email but that's 1127 00:50:05,829 --> 00:50:04,000 probably pretty close to what was going 1128 00:50:08,549 --> 00:50:05,839 on i was going to say that could be an 1129 00:50:11,270 --> 00:50:08,559 unwanted byproduct of the attempt at 1130 00:50:12,390 --> 00:50:11,280 transmuting base metals into gold yes 1131 00:50:13,990 --> 00:50:12,400 yes yes 1132 00:50:15,589 --> 00:50:14,000 all right well let's get to uh let's get 1133 00:50:16,630 --> 00:50:15,599 to ufos man 1134 00:50:18,470 --> 00:50:16,640 um 1135 00:50:19,349 --> 00:50:18,480 the article 1136 00:50:21,910 --> 00:50:19,359 uh 1137 00:50:22,950 --> 00:50:21,920 okay let's let's talk about the one 1138 00:50:24,870 --> 00:50:22,960 thing 1139 00:50:28,230 --> 00:50:24,880 that is in front of everybody when they 1140 00:50:31,349 --> 00:50:28,240 see this holy crap it's long 1141 00:50:32,950 --> 00:50:31,359 now you're now the editor-in-chief 1142 00:50:34,630 --> 00:50:32,960 yeah what do you do do you go to chris 1143 00:50:37,589 --> 00:50:34,640 mellon and go chris 1144 00:50:40,309 --> 00:50:37,599 uh we need to get this you know 1145 00:50:43,190 --> 00:50:40,319 it's it's 150 000 words we got to get it 1146 00:50:44,150 --> 00:50:43,200 down to about 200. 1147 00:50:45,990 --> 00:50:44,160 right well 1148 00:50:48,230 --> 00:50:46,000 something's got to go i i'm being 1149 00:50:51,589 --> 00:50:48,240 extreme and i'm you know being a little 1150 00:50:53,750 --> 00:50:51,599 cavalier here but that is a challenge uh 1151 00:50:54,870 --> 00:50:53,760 what did you decide ultimately uh what 1152 00:50:56,630 --> 00:50:54,880 to do 1153 00:50:58,870 --> 00:50:56,640 well you know i mean it was a book 1154 00:51:01,510 --> 00:50:58,880 length manuscript and we had to pick the 1155 00:51:03,270 --> 00:51:01,520 best 7 800 words at the end of the day 1156 00:51:05,349 --> 00:51:03,280 so no i'm kidding no i mean 1157 00:51:06,630 --> 00:51:05,359 we there was a lot of editing you know 1158 00:51:09,030 --> 00:51:06,640 that went through this and i wasn't the 1159 00:51:11,750 --> 00:51:09,040 only editor i mean i was i was very uh 1160 00:51:13,270 --> 00:51:11,760 you know welcoming of the process that 1161 00:51:14,150 --> 00:51:13,280 chris wanted to go through on this which 1162 00:51:15,589 --> 00:51:14,160 was 1163 00:51:17,510 --> 00:51:15,599 he submitted the article but you know 1164 00:51:18,390 --> 00:51:17,520 his son had been very involved 1165 00:51:19,750 --> 00:51:18,400 there had been a number of other 1166 00:51:21,030 --> 00:51:19,760 researchers who had been involved behind 1167 00:51:22,549 --> 00:51:21,040 the scenes too you know some of whom i 1168 00:51:25,430 --> 00:51:22,559 guess i won't mention right now just 1169 00:51:27,589 --> 00:51:25,440 because i don't i'm not 100 certain that 1170 00:51:29,109 --> 00:51:27,599 all of them would want to be named yeah 1171 00:51:31,750 --> 00:51:29,119 i can definitely mention uh you know 1172 00:51:33,190 --> 00:51:31,760 brad sparks i can mention uh 1173 00:51:34,710 --> 00:51:33,200 paul dean of course australian 1174 00:51:36,549 --> 00:51:34,720 researcher paul dean 1175 00:51:37,829 --> 00:51:36,559 because they're mentioned and thank uh 1176 00:51:38,790 --> 00:51:37,839 thanked at the very end of the article 1177 00:51:41,190 --> 00:51:38,800 so 1178 00:51:42,870 --> 00:51:41,200 uh and hunter of course uh is chris's 1179 00:51:45,349 --> 00:51:42,880 son he's also mentioned there 1180 00:51:47,510 --> 00:51:45,359 so there were a lot of people who were 1181 00:51:49,030 --> 00:51:47,520 offering feedback uh editorial 1182 00:51:50,870 --> 00:51:49,040 criticisms you know hunter was doing a 1183 00:51:53,430 --> 00:51:50,880 lot of the actual editing 1184 00:51:54,790 --> 00:51:53,440 uh i did a once over early on and then 1185 00:51:56,790 --> 00:51:54,800 at the final 1186 00:51:58,870 --> 00:51:56,800 you know hour then it was 1187 00:52:00,150 --> 00:51:58,880 up to me to go back through and and 1188 00:52:02,069 --> 00:52:00,160 check things 1189 00:52:03,190 --> 00:52:02,079 and uh and we finally got it the way 1190 00:52:05,190 --> 00:52:03,200 that we wanted but you know something 1191 00:52:07,349 --> 00:52:05,200 else that people will notice is that the 1192 00:52:08,790 --> 00:52:07,359 format of the article apart from its 1193 00:52:10,390 --> 00:52:08,800 link the format's also a little 1194 00:52:11,750 --> 00:52:10,400 different and you know at the end of the 1195 00:52:14,470 --> 00:52:11,760 day we could talk all about the the 1196 00:52:16,790 --> 00:52:14,480 nitty-gritty in my view jimmy 1197 00:52:18,549 --> 00:52:16,800 the article is so important in terms of 1198 00:52:20,630 --> 00:52:18,559 what it is conveying about a very 1199 00:52:23,670 --> 00:52:20,640 serious problem that problem is very 1200 00:52:25,990 --> 00:52:23,680 simple uh if indeed the 1201 00:52:27,670 --> 00:52:26,000 the skies are the domain of the branch 1202 00:52:29,910 --> 00:52:27,680 of the military that we in the united 1203 00:52:32,309 --> 00:52:29,920 states call the air force 1204 00:52:33,750 --> 00:52:32,319 why have they seemingly been less 1205 00:52:35,990 --> 00:52:33,760 involved 1206 00:52:37,750 --> 00:52:36,000 with the uap issue i mean and again 1207 00:52:39,829 --> 00:52:37,760 chris isn't the first person to point 1208 00:52:41,750 --> 00:52:39,839 this out many have pointed this out i 1209 00:52:44,390 --> 00:52:41,760 think that he has really 1210 00:52:46,710 --> 00:52:44,400 laid the problem out there and in almost 1211 00:52:48,309 --> 00:52:46,720 granular detail presented 1212 00:52:51,109 --> 00:52:48,319 first of all the equipment and the 1213 00:52:52,630 --> 00:52:51,119 technologies at the air force's disposal 1214 00:52:54,630 --> 00:52:52,640 and then also of course the problems 1215 00:52:57,430 --> 00:52:54,640 with their lack of involvement now you 1216 00:52:58,950 --> 00:52:57,440 know me i'm a history guy and this this 1217 00:53:01,030 --> 00:52:58,960 not only was the first thing i actually 1218 00:53:02,230 --> 00:53:01,040 did with the debrief having you know 1219 00:53:03,349 --> 00:53:02,240 formally taken over as the 1220 00:53:05,430 --> 00:53:03,359 editor-in-chief i've done a lot of 1221 00:53:06,870 --> 00:53:05,440 editing you know along with mj 1222 00:53:08,630 --> 00:53:06,880 up to this point 1223 00:53:10,069 --> 00:53:08,640 but this was also the first time that i 1224 00:53:11,910 --> 00:53:10,079 ever really had 1225 00:53:13,510 --> 00:53:11,920 uh significant interactions with chris 1226 00:53:15,349 --> 00:53:13,520 mellon and so to go 1227 00:53:17,829 --> 00:53:15,359 into a project like this where i'm 1228 00:53:19,430 --> 00:53:17,839 emailing with him sometimes every hour 1229 00:53:21,270 --> 00:53:19,440 several times 1230 00:53:23,670 --> 00:53:21,280 i found it enjoyable 1231 00:53:25,589 --> 00:53:23,680 but again what you never lose sight of 1232 00:53:27,670 --> 00:53:25,599 working on something like this is the 1233 00:53:29,510 --> 00:53:27,680 fundamental importance of what this 1234 00:53:30,790 --> 00:53:29,520 article is about and so i hope people 1235 00:53:32,630 --> 00:53:30,800 who look at it and say okay this is 1236 00:53:34,870 --> 00:53:32,640 really long i hope you'll take the time 1237 00:53:36,630 --> 00:53:34,880 to read it and i hope you'll you'll see 1238 00:53:38,870 --> 00:53:36,640 this i hope people at home who read this 1239 00:53:40,470 --> 00:53:38,880 article there at the debrief uh they 1240 00:53:42,470 --> 00:53:40,480 will see this as being a little 1241 00:53:44,309 --> 00:53:42,480 different from how traditional 1242 00:53:46,150 --> 00:53:44,319 publications would feature an article i 1243 00:53:48,309 --> 00:53:46,160 mean it is lengthy not that the new 1244 00:53:50,549 --> 00:53:48,319 yorker and other you know magazines have 1245 00:53:52,470 --> 00:53:50,559 not published lengthy things and in fact 1246 00:53:54,230 --> 00:53:52,480 anybody who read gideon lewis krause's 1247 00:53:55,510 --> 00:53:54,240 article in the new yorker about ufos a 1248 00:53:56,950 --> 00:53:55,520 few months back 1249 00:53:59,430 --> 00:53:56,960 i think that was much longer than this 1250 00:54:01,430 --> 00:53:59,440 one but it's a bit more of a narrative 1251 00:54:04,390 --> 00:54:01,440 format whereas chris really i mean he 1252 00:54:06,150 --> 00:54:04,400 has bullets and lists and he has uh you 1253 00:54:08,230 --> 00:54:06,160 know quite a structure in the way that 1254 00:54:09,829 --> 00:54:08,240 this came together so all that said 1255 00:54:12,069 --> 00:54:09,839 i think that we all got it about as 1256 00:54:13,829 --> 00:54:12,079 close to being how we wanted it uh at 1257 00:54:15,910 --> 00:54:13,839 the end of the day and the effect has 1258 00:54:17,270 --> 00:54:15,920 been quite uh quite significant let me 1259 00:54:18,710 --> 00:54:17,280 just say there's been a lot of traffic 1260 00:54:19,510 --> 00:54:18,720 uh you know of course the hill covered 1261 00:54:20,309 --> 00:54:19,520 this 1262 00:54:21,589 --> 00:54:20,319 um 1263 00:54:22,870 --> 00:54:21,599 i've actually been on a couple of 1264 00:54:23,990 --> 00:54:22,880 interviews too because we've gotten so 1265 00:54:26,150 --> 00:54:24,000 much attention that i've been helping 1266 00:54:28,150 --> 00:54:26,160 out with a lot of the promotional stuff 1267 00:54:29,430 --> 00:54:28,160 and uh you know and again i hope at the 1268 00:54:31,589 --> 00:54:29,440 end of the day that people do realize 1269 00:54:33,589 --> 00:54:31,599 wow okay this is an issue but being the 1270 00:54:35,109 --> 00:54:33,599 history guy i'm here to tell you tonight 1271 00:54:36,069 --> 00:54:35,119 ladies and gents this is nothing new 1272 00:54:37,510 --> 00:54:36,079 this has been something that's been 1273 00:54:39,190 --> 00:54:37,520 going on for quite a while when it 1274 00:54:41,990 --> 00:54:39,200 involves the usaf 1275 00:54:44,630 --> 00:54:42,000 it was written in a format and when we 1276 00:54:45,750 --> 00:54:44,640 come back after the break uh 1277 00:54:47,750 --> 00:54:45,760 we will 1278 00:54:49,750 --> 00:54:47,760 dive into this and we're going to be 1279 00:54:51,589 --> 00:54:49,760 doing this for the rest of the night 1280 00:54:53,349 --> 00:54:51,599 it's going to take a lot of attention 1281 00:54:56,150 --> 00:54:53,359 for everybody to focus in we're going to 1282 00:54:57,270 --> 00:54:56,160 do that but before we get there 1283 00:54:59,910 --> 00:54:57,280 to me 1284 00:55:01,670 --> 00:54:59,920 it is written 1285 00:55:03,589 --> 00:55:01,680 like a 1286 00:55:04,710 --> 00:55:03,599 a published 1287 00:55:08,549 --> 00:55:04,720 paper 1288 00:55:11,109 --> 00:55:08,559 in a professional peer-reviewed journal 1289 00:55:13,430 --> 00:55:11,119 um it's got everything but footnotes and 1290 00:55:15,990 --> 00:55:13,440 salutations and right you know it 1291 00:55:18,870 --> 00:55:16,000 it's got everything but that but it is 1292 00:55:20,710 --> 00:55:18,880 written that way the sensationalism 1293 00:55:23,589 --> 00:55:20,720 you know the shock and all of that what 1294 00:55:25,910 --> 00:55:23,599 you know what writers do and i do it you 1295 00:55:28,630 --> 00:55:25,920 do it but that's not here 1296 00:55:30,470 --> 00:55:28,640 chris wanted to stick uh to the facts 1297 00:55:32,829 --> 00:55:30,480 and have it flow 1298 00:55:35,430 --> 00:55:32,839 in a way that is 1299 00:55:38,230 --> 00:55:35,440 presentable like a 1300 00:55:40,390 --> 00:55:38,240 a a peer-reviewed journal this could be 1301 00:55:42,309 --> 00:55:40,400 peer-reviewed and fact-checked 1302 00:55:43,990 --> 00:55:42,319 yeah i mean if it were structured 1303 00:55:45,750 --> 00:55:44,000 slightly differently you're absolutely 1304 00:55:48,549 --> 00:55:45,760 right and again you know looking at 1305 00:55:50,549 --> 00:55:48,559 somebody like christopher mellon um who 1306 00:55:52,549 --> 00:55:50,559 for a long time i think for a lot of 1307 00:55:54,470 --> 00:55:52,559 people in the ufo community and myself 1308 00:55:56,390 --> 00:55:54,480 included to an extent 1309 00:55:58,630 --> 00:55:56,400 he and lou elizondo and people like that 1310 00:55:59,829 --> 00:55:58,640 were kind of mysterious there was that 1311 00:56:01,349 --> 00:55:59,839 certain mystique you know that 1312 00:56:03,030 --> 00:56:01,359 surrounded the whole to the stars 1313 00:56:04,069 --> 00:56:03,040 academy of arts and sciences early on 1314 00:56:05,270 --> 00:56:04,079 because they weren't doing a lot of 1315 00:56:08,150 --> 00:56:05,280 interviews and chris still doesn't do a 1316 00:56:10,150 --> 00:56:08,160 lot of interviews i was very 1317 00:56:12,069 --> 00:56:10,160 very pleased and of course thrilled and 1318 00:56:13,910 --> 00:56:12,079 delighted of course to have him too on 1319 00:56:16,309 --> 00:56:13,920 my podcast the micah hanks program this 1320 00:56:18,789 --> 00:56:16,319 week we actually talk about the article 1321 00:56:20,710 --> 00:56:18,799 uh on the show and and so that was you 1322 00:56:22,710 --> 00:56:20,720 know as as fun as being able to work 1323 00:56:24,150 --> 00:56:22,720 with him on getting this thing through 1324 00:56:26,069 --> 00:56:24,160 to production but 1325 00:56:28,950 --> 00:56:26,079 um i think that the thing that that 1326 00:56:31,030 --> 00:56:28,960 mystique that kind of surrounded uh lou 1327 00:56:33,670 --> 00:56:31,040 and chris early on 1328 00:56:35,270 --> 00:56:33,680 um i think the downside of that is that 1329 00:56:37,430 --> 00:56:35,280 although it got people really excited 1330 00:56:39,349 --> 00:56:37,440 about ufos 1331 00:56:41,990 --> 00:56:39,359 a lot of folks to me at least seem to 1332 00:56:43,670 --> 00:56:42,000 fail to recognize that what we have here 1333 00:56:46,630 --> 00:56:43,680 with chris mellon for instance is a guy 1334 00:56:47,829 --> 00:56:46,640 who worked in the intelligence community 1335 00:56:51,109 --> 00:56:47,839 you know 1336 00:56:53,030 --> 00:56:51,119 this is a person who put his name and 1337 00:56:55,510 --> 00:56:53,040 his and his you know his good name he's 1338 00:56:56,870 --> 00:56:55,520 a recipient of numerous medals mind you 1339 00:56:57,910 --> 00:56:56,880 some of the highest that can be awarded 1340 00:56:59,990 --> 00:56:57,920 by different branches of the 1341 00:57:01,990 --> 00:57:00,000 intelligence agencies 1342 00:57:03,349 --> 00:57:02,000 here's a guy who is willing to take all 1343 00:57:05,190 --> 00:57:03,359 of that 1344 00:57:08,470 --> 00:57:05,200 and potentially risk throwing it all 1345 00:57:10,390 --> 00:57:08,480 away or tarnishing that good reputation 1346 00:57:11,910 --> 00:57:10,400 for having significant more than most 1347 00:57:13,750 --> 00:57:11,920 people more than most ufologists for 1348 00:57:16,230 --> 00:57:13,760 that matter having significant 1349 00:57:19,510 --> 00:57:16,240 association with this topic 1350 00:57:22,470 --> 00:57:19,520 and i have to say that given the outcome 1351 00:57:23,990 --> 00:57:22,480 since 2017 the the complete shift some 1352 00:57:26,069 --> 00:57:24,000 would call it a paradigm shift that is 1353 00:57:28,230 --> 00:57:26,079 currently underway the way that the tone 1354 00:57:29,750 --> 00:57:28,240 has shifted on this topic and the way 1355 00:57:31,190 --> 00:57:29,760 that people address it 1356 00:57:33,349 --> 00:57:31,200 we have to recognize we're all the 1357 00:57:35,670 --> 00:57:33,359 better for it and the tremendous role 1358 00:57:37,030 --> 00:57:35,680 that chris and lou have played 1359 00:57:39,349 --> 00:57:37,040 and others too 1360 00:57:40,870 --> 00:57:39,359 in helping bring that to fruition 1361 00:57:44,069 --> 00:57:40,880 because again and this is part of the 1362 00:57:45,670 --> 00:57:44,079 problem the us air force stiff arming to 1363 00:57:47,510 --> 00:57:45,680 borrow language that was featured in 1364 00:57:49,670 --> 00:57:47,520 politico last year 1365 00:57:51,750 --> 00:57:49,680 which actually was quoting chris mellon 1366 00:57:53,430 --> 00:57:51,760 this article by brian bender was talking 1367 00:57:56,150 --> 00:57:53,440 about the fact that you know some 1368 00:57:59,190 --> 00:57:56,160 agencies were stiff-arming the uap task 1369 00:58:00,789 --> 00:57:59,200 force uh dawdling on getting information 1370 00:58:02,950 --> 00:58:00,799 or just not being compliant with 1371 00:58:04,630 --> 00:58:02,960 supplying the information altogether 1372 00:58:06,789 --> 00:58:04,640 this problem has existed even in 1373 00:58:07,990 --> 00:58:06,799 government and without guys like chris 1374 00:58:09,670 --> 00:58:08,000 and lou and others you know coming out 1375 00:58:11,589 --> 00:58:09,680 there and saying look you know we came 1376 00:58:13,270 --> 00:58:11,599 from within government we recognize that 1377 00:58:14,789 --> 00:58:13,280 problem we must raise awareness and 1378 00:58:16,470 --> 00:58:14,799 we've got to try and push this ball 1379 00:58:19,190 --> 00:58:16,480 further down the court because this 1380 00:58:21,829 --> 00:58:19,200 issue is important to all of us 1381 00:58:23,910 --> 00:58:21,839 everybody not just americans you know 1382 00:58:26,150 --> 00:58:23,920 not just the western world everybody on 1383 00:58:28,230 --> 00:58:26,160 this mudball we call planet earth 1384 00:58:29,990 --> 00:58:28,240 this is very important and and so you 1385 00:58:31,190 --> 00:58:30,000 know i commend those guys for the work 1386 00:58:33,109 --> 00:58:31,200 that they've done it's very important 1387 00:58:34,309 --> 00:58:33,119 stuff and i hope again that articles 1388 00:58:36,470 --> 00:58:34,319 like this one are going to keep that 1389 00:58:38,710 --> 00:58:36,480 dialogue going and yes like you said 1390 00:58:41,589 --> 00:58:38,720 we've got plenty to talk about yeah we 1391 00:58:43,270 --> 00:58:41,599 do and now there's a two ways to look at 1392 00:58:44,710 --> 00:58:43,280 this and we'll set this up because we're 1393 00:58:46,630 --> 00:58:44,720 going to come right back after the break 1394 00:58:48,710 --> 00:58:46,640 got two minutes micah 1395 00:58:52,150 --> 00:58:48,720 there's two ways to look at this 1396 00:58:54,710 --> 00:58:52,160 um that uh chris 1397 00:58:57,190 --> 00:58:54,720 uh has offended the air force and they 1398 00:58:59,589 --> 00:58:57,200 will continue to do the stiff arm 1399 00:59:00,390 --> 00:58:59,599 right or the other part is 1400 00:59:02,950 --> 00:59:00,400 uh 1401 00:59:04,390 --> 00:59:02,960 everybody that goes awol has to come 1402 00:59:06,549 --> 00:59:04,400 back into the fray 1403 00:59:09,430 --> 00:59:06,559 right you can't you can't be absent 1404 00:59:11,990 --> 00:59:09,440 without leave forever so will the 1405 00:59:13,990 --> 00:59:12,000 article light a fire 1406 00:59:16,309 --> 00:59:14,000 and encourage 1407 00:59:18,549 --> 00:59:16,319 the air force to get involved which way 1408 00:59:19,990 --> 00:59:18,559 do you think this is going to play out 1409 00:59:21,030 --> 00:59:20,000 i don't think they should be offended i 1410 00:59:22,870 --> 00:59:21,040 don't think that there's anything 1411 00:59:24,789 --> 00:59:22,880 offensive in this article you know that 1412 00:59:26,230 --> 00:59:24,799 actually came up behind the scenes so to 1413 00:59:27,829 --> 00:59:26,240 speak um 1414 00:59:29,190 --> 00:59:27,839 the the notion that you know someone 1415 00:59:32,150 --> 00:59:29,200 actually raised the question you know 1416 00:59:34,549 --> 00:59:32,160 how would this reflect on chris you know 1417 00:59:37,030 --> 00:59:34,559 raising these these points how would 1418 00:59:39,750 --> 00:59:37,040 people on capitol hill respond to this 1419 00:59:41,349 --> 00:59:39,760 and again admirably chris essentially 1420 00:59:42,470 --> 00:59:41,359 responded and said you know 1421 00:59:44,630 --> 00:59:42,480 these 1422 00:59:46,950 --> 00:59:44,640 points i'm raising are deserved you know 1423 00:59:48,390 --> 00:59:46,960 attention must be drawn to these things 1424 00:59:49,589 --> 00:59:48,400 i have no doubt by the way that people 1425 00:59:51,030 --> 00:59:49,599 on capitol hill have been paying 1426 00:59:53,030 --> 00:59:51,040 attention to this article and that it 1427 00:59:54,870 --> 00:59:53,040 has gotten a lot of attention 1428 00:59:56,470 --> 00:59:54,880 uh from lawmakers and also you know 1429 00:59:57,750 --> 00:59:56,480 people in the military 1430 00:59:59,829 --> 00:59:57,760 people in other branches of government 1431 01:00:01,990 --> 00:59:59,839 for that matter i have absolutely no 1432 01:00:03,750 --> 01:00:02,000 doubt about that that was chris's intent 1433 01:00:06,230 --> 01:00:03,760 in writing this i mean he said this is 1434 01:00:08,470 --> 01:00:06,240 intended for people in washington 1435 01:00:10,549 --> 01:00:08,480 many of whom he sent it to directly 1436 01:00:12,309 --> 01:00:10,559 so the point is that again first of all 1437 01:00:14,390 --> 01:00:12,319 i don't think that the us air force you 1438 01:00:16,309 --> 01:00:14,400 know as though this is some sort of a 1439 01:00:18,870 --> 01:00:16,319 large you know looming giant with 1440 01:00:22,309 --> 01:00:18,880 feelings no you know this is a branch of 1441 01:00:24,470 --> 01:00:22,319 the military he is raising some points 1442 01:00:25,910 --> 01:00:24,480 the result of this in the past this kind 1443 01:00:27,270 --> 01:00:25,920 of thing has been that lawmakers 1444 01:00:29,030 --> 01:00:27,280 obviously have taken this seriously 1445 01:00:31,990 --> 01:00:29,040 because we have seen the establishment 1446 01:00:33,589 --> 01:00:32,000 of the uap task force we have seen uh 1447 01:00:35,750 --> 01:00:33,599 you know congressman gallagher and then 1448 01:00:37,030 --> 01:00:35,760 also senators gillibrand rubio and 1449 01:00:38,789 --> 01:00:37,040 others 1450 01:00:40,870 --> 01:00:38,799 bringing this amendment for the national 1451 01:00:42,390 --> 01:00:40,880 defense authorization act for fiscal 1452 01:00:44,309 --> 01:00:42,400 year 2022 that you and i talked about 1453 01:00:45,910 --> 01:00:44,319 last time the gila brand amendment uh 1454 01:00:47,510 --> 01:00:45,920 which ends up being passed into law but 1455 01:00:50,309 --> 01:00:47,520 that in addition to the establishment of 1456 01:00:52,470 --> 01:00:50,319 this aoi msg by the pentagon the net 1457 01:00:54,470 --> 01:00:52,480 result up to this point has been a lot 1458 01:00:56,549 --> 01:00:54,480 of action in government based on the 1459 01:00:58,470 --> 01:00:56,559 interest that this is generated 1460 01:01:00,150 --> 01:00:58,480 my hope and my take would be that rather 1461 01:01:01,589 --> 01:01:00,160 than this being something that would be 1462 01:01:03,430 --> 01:01:01,599 offensive or that would push people 1463 01:01:05,829 --> 01:01:03,440 further away from the topic 1464 01:01:07,270 --> 01:01:05,839 i hope past being prologue as it is that 1465 01:01:08,549 --> 01:01:07,280 it's going to bring more attention to it 1466 01:01:10,150 --> 01:01:08,559 that has already happened in the last 1467 01:01:12,230 --> 01:01:10,160 few years i don't see why this case 1468 01:01:14,150 --> 01:01:12,240 would be any different and indeed it 1469 01:01:15,990 --> 01:01:14,160 needs to be like that this needs to 1470 01:01:17,430 --> 01:01:16,000 bring more attention to these issues and 1471 01:01:18,870 --> 01:01:17,440 we're beginning to get a glimmering of 1472 01:01:20,630 --> 01:01:18,880 an idea that that indeed may be the 1473 01:01:22,230 --> 01:01:20,640 cases i'll tell you when we come back 1474 01:01:24,390 --> 01:01:22,240 from

preface 1637 01:09:10,149 --> 01:09:08,640 this uh that by saying that you know 1638 01:09:11,910 --> 01:09:10,159 when we when we talk about what 1639 01:09:14,470 --> 01:09:11,920 historically have been known as ufos or 1640 01:09:17,269 --> 01:09:14,480 what we would call uap today you know 1641 01:09:18,550 --> 01:09:17,279 it's it's kind of a three-fold approach 1642 01:09:19,910 --> 01:09:18,560 and you know i always try to look in the 1643 01:09:21,669 --> 01:09:19,920 chat room and see what people are saying 1644 01:09:23,430 --> 01:09:21,679 during the break you know some people 1645 01:09:25,349 --> 01:09:23,440 even mentioned you know we talked so 1646 01:09:27,510 --> 01:09:25,359 much about the government and its 1647 01:09:30,390 --> 01:09:27,520 interest in ufos and there's so much 1648 01:09:32,070 --> 01:09:30,400 less focus placed on the ufos themselves 1649 01:09:33,110 --> 01:09:32,080 i got to sympathize with that i mean at 1650 01:09:34,950 --> 01:09:33,120 the end of the day aren't we really 1651 01:09:36,709 --> 01:09:34,960 interested in understanding the dynamics 1652 01:09:38,870 --> 01:09:36,719 of these craft how they function you 1653 01:09:39,990 --> 01:09:38,880 know what they might be where they might 1654 01:09:41,990 --> 01:09:40,000 be from 1655 01:09:44,309 --> 01:09:42,000 what kinds of circumstances people have 1656 01:09:46,229 --> 01:09:44,319 you know observed these under uh what 1657 01:09:47,829 --> 01:09:46,239 kinds of people in general see them i 1658 01:09:49,829 --> 01:09:47,839 mean all those kind of things are 1659 01:09:52,630 --> 01:09:49,839 fundamentally more interesting to me 1660 01:09:54,390 --> 01:09:52,640 uh there has been a tremendous amount of 1661 01:09:56,709 --> 01:09:54,400 interest placed on the agencies that 1662 01:09:57,669 --> 01:09:56,719 look at this phenomena in recent years 1663 01:09:59,430 --> 01:09:57,679 and that's really kind of led the 1664 01:10:02,310 --> 01:09:59,440 narrative i'd like to get back myself to 1665 01:10:04,149 --> 01:10:02,320 looking at the phenomena in some ways 1666 01:10:05,910 --> 01:10:04,159 chris's article does that and in terms 1667 01:10:06,950 --> 01:10:05,920 of those three approaches i was talking 1668 01:10:08,229 --> 01:10:06,960 about 1669 01:10:11,110 --> 01:10:08,239 you know on the one hand you've you've 1670 01:10:13,270 --> 01:10:11,120 got the phenomena itself on the other 1671 01:10:16,229 --> 01:10:13,280 hand you've got the technologies that 1672 01:10:17,110 --> 01:10:16,239 can be used to kind of help us detect 1673 01:10:18,470 --> 01:10:17,120 them 1674 01:10:20,390 --> 01:10:18,480 and then you've got on the other hand 1675 01:10:22,630 --> 01:10:20,400 the people who look at ufos whether they 1676 01:10:24,709 --> 01:10:22,640 are civilians military officials 1677 01:10:25,990 --> 01:10:24,719 scientists you know in the academic 1678 01:10:27,430 --> 01:10:26,000 establishment 1679 01:10:30,630 --> 01:10:27,440 which we're fortunately seeing more and 1680 01:10:31,750 --> 01:10:30,640 more of right now so why chris takes the 1681 01:10:33,270 --> 01:10:31,760 approach that he does in the article i 1682 01:10:34,630 --> 01:10:33,280 mean again i can only speculate but i 1683 01:10:35,910 --> 01:10:34,640 would presume that that is to try and 1684 01:10:38,709 --> 01:10:35,920 say hey listen 1685 01:10:40,790 --> 01:10:38,719 first and most fundamentally important 1686 01:10:43,750 --> 01:10:40,800 the united states air force is tasked 1687 01:10:45,110 --> 01:10:43,760 with defending our skies 1688 01:10:46,950 --> 01:10:45,120 and something that a lot of people 1689 01:10:49,270 --> 01:10:46,960 here's a bit of a preface for you a lot 1690 01:10:51,590 --> 01:10:49,280 of people had begun to notice in recent 1691 01:10:53,590 --> 01:10:51,600 years i saw an article by ty rogoway 1692 01:10:54,870 --> 01:10:53,600 over at the war zone about this you know 1693 01:10:56,310 --> 01:10:54,880 the debrief team and i had talked about 1694 01:10:57,669 --> 01:10:56,320 it plenty 1695 01:10:58,709 --> 01:10:57,679 and many others had commented on the 1696 01:11:01,270 --> 01:10:58,719 fact 1697 01:11:03,590 --> 01:11:01,280 why is the navy producing all the videos 1698 01:11:05,110 --> 01:11:03,600 why is the uap task force under the 1699 01:11:07,270 --> 01:11:05,120 department of the navy 1700 01:11:09,510 --> 01:11:07,280 why is it always navy warships where 1701 01:11:11,590 --> 01:11:09,520 we're seeing ufos and things like this 1702 01:11:14,070 --> 01:11:11,600 you know these drone-like objects maybe 1703 01:11:16,070 --> 01:11:14,080 they are drones but you know in any case 1704 01:11:18,149 --> 01:11:16,080 being unidentified they effectively are 1705 01:11:19,750 --> 01:11:18,159 uap why is this always happening around 1706 01:11:21,750 --> 01:11:19,760 our navy warships 1707 01:11:22,790 --> 01:11:21,760 why is there so much emphasis on the 1708 01:11:24,790 --> 01:11:22,800 navy 1709 01:11:26,229 --> 01:11:24,800 while the air force you would think 1710 01:11:28,630 --> 01:11:26,239 would be the ones who would be producing 1711 01:11:30,950 --> 01:11:28,640 a lot of information about this 1712 01:11:32,470 --> 01:11:30,960 to chris's point in the article 1713 01:11:33,990 --> 01:11:32,480 in fact they are more than well equipped 1714 01:11:35,350 --> 01:11:34,000 to be able to do so and he looks at 1715 01:11:36,709 --> 01:11:35,360 several of the technologies some of the 1716 01:11:38,390 --> 01:11:36,719 ones he lists in the article include the 1717 01:11:41,110 --> 01:11:38,400 space fence the world's most advanced 1718 01:11:43,189 --> 01:11:41,120 radar uh solid-state phased array radar 1719 01:11:43,870 --> 01:11:43,199 system or the uh i think formerly it was 1720 01:11:48,709 --> 01:11:43,880 the 1721 01:11:50,870 --> 01:11:48,719 sspars 1722 01:11:53,350 --> 01:11:50,880 there's the global infrasound acoustic 1723 01:11:54,870 --> 01:11:53,360 monitoring network uh u.s space 1724 01:11:57,430 --> 01:11:54,880 surveillance network space-based 1725 01:11:59,510 --> 01:11:57,440 infrared system active electronically 1726 01:12:01,270 --> 01:11:59,520 scanned array radars and then of course 1727 01:12:02,630 --> 01:12:01,280 the federal aviation administration that 1728 01:12:03,990 --> 01:12:02,640 one's near and dear to my heart because 1729 01:12:07,750 --> 01:12:04,000 the faa 1730 01:12:09,430 --> 01:12:07,760 has been probably the the primary focus 1731 01:12:11,270 --> 01:12:09,440 of a lot of my reporting there at the 1732 01:12:13,110 --> 01:12:11,280 debrief and and we can get into that a 1733 01:12:14,870 --> 01:12:13,120 little later too but again 1734 01:12:16,390 --> 01:12:14,880 very glad that someone like chris mellon 1735 01:12:19,110 --> 01:12:16,400 is also bringing attention to the fact 1736 01:12:21,110 --> 01:12:19,120 that the faa much like the air force 1737 01:12:23,430 --> 01:12:21,120 had until i finally got a quote from 1738 01:12:25,430 --> 01:12:23,440 them last year they had continued to say 1739 01:12:27,750 --> 01:12:25,440 they didn't investigate uap at all they 1740 01:12:30,470 --> 01:12:27,760 finally admitted to me after a lot of 1741 01:12:31,669 --> 01:12:30,480 dogging them that indeed they do and now 1742 01:12:33,430 --> 01:12:31,679 when they get 1743 01:12:35,590 --> 01:12:33,440 eyewitness sightings either by traffic 1744 01:12:37,590 --> 01:12:35,600 controllers or by pilots that can be 1745 01:12:39,350 --> 01:12:37,600 corroborated this is important with 1746 01:12:41,110 --> 01:12:39,360 radar and they have some sort of 1747 01:12:43,189 --> 01:12:41,120 instrumental corroboration 1748 01:12:45,110 --> 01:12:43,199 those reports are now logged and sent to 1749 01:12:47,189 --> 01:12:45,120 the uap task force presumably they may 1750 01:12:49,990 --> 01:12:47,199 go to a successor organization but keep 1751 01:12:51,830 --> 01:12:50,000 in mind the aoi msg only is going to be 1752 01:12:54,310 --> 01:12:51,840 looking at special use airspace so that 1753 01:12:56,390 --> 01:12:54,320 would seemingly eliminate a lot of 1754 01:12:59,590 --> 01:12:56,400 different airports if they don't if they 1755 01:13:01,030 --> 01:12:59,600 aren't used or frequented by military so 1756 01:13:03,270 --> 01:13:01,040 you know again i think that we have to 1757 01:13:05,590 --> 01:13:03,280 look at all the tools you might say in 1758 01:13:07,350 --> 01:13:05,600 our tool kit so to speak and that's what 1759 01:13:08,630 --> 01:13:07,360 chris is fundamentally outlining with 1760 01:13:11,910 --> 01:13:08,640 these tools 1761 01:13:13,669 --> 01:13:11,920 the idea that unknowns are not detected 1762 01:13:15,110 --> 01:13:13,679 and that the us air force even if they 1763 01:13:16,390 --> 01:13:15,120 did detect them that they did nothing 1764 01:13:17,750 --> 01:13:16,400 with that information or paid no 1765 01:13:20,470 --> 01:13:17,760 attention to them 1766 01:13:22,950 --> 01:13:20,480 it is either unfathomable 1767 01:13:25,510 --> 01:13:22,960 i think it's untrue i think it's untrue 1768 01:13:27,189 --> 01:13:25,520 and let me tell you i'm gonna jump in 1769 01:13:29,669 --> 01:13:27,199 because uh 1770 01:13:33,750 --> 01:13:29,679 to me as a reader 1771 01:13:36,470 --> 01:13:33,760 um what i got out of uh 1772 01:13:38,950 --> 01:13:36,480 the reason why chris pointed this out 1773 01:13:40,149 --> 01:13:38,960 is that these systems are so freaking 1774 01:13:42,390 --> 01:13:40,159 advanced 1775 01:13:43,350 --> 01:13:42,400 that they are designed 1776 01:13:45,510 --> 01:13:43,360 to 1777 01:13:48,310 --> 01:13:45,520 because they're seeing everything 1778 01:13:51,350 --> 01:13:48,320 and he points out in the article that uh 1779 01:13:52,470 --> 01:13:51,360 they can detect things as small as a 1780 01:13:53,990 --> 01:13:52,480 marble 1781 01:13:55,669 --> 01:13:54,000 so with that 1782 01:13:57,669 --> 01:13:55,679 you are seeing everything 1783 01:14:00,870 --> 01:13:57,679 you know from birds 1784 01:14:03,110 --> 01:14:00,880 to aircraft and and and everything else 1785 01:14:06,229 --> 01:14:03,120 that is in between that could be in the 1786 01:14:08,310 --> 01:14:06,239 skies you have to be able to 1787 01:14:09,910 --> 01:14:08,320 separate the clutter what are you 1788 01:14:11,990 --> 01:14:09,920 interested in 1789 01:14:13,350 --> 01:14:12,000 and then once you start to peel that 1790 01:14:15,830 --> 01:14:13,360 stuff away 1791 01:14:16,870 --> 01:14:15,840 and with these advanced systems you can 1792 01:14:19,750 --> 01:14:16,880 tell 1793 01:14:21,990 --> 01:14:19,760 whose aircraft it is there are radio 1794 01:14:24,310 --> 01:14:22,000 signals friend or foe 1795 01:14:26,390 --> 01:14:24,320 this stuff is out there too as well but 1796 01:14:27,350 --> 01:14:26,400 the other part is once you have figured 1797 01:14:29,990 --> 01:14:27,360 out 1798 01:14:32,470 --> 01:14:30,000 whose aircraft is what and and what is 1799 01:14:34,870 --> 01:14:32,480 flying and then you have something else 1800 01:14:37,030 --> 01:14:34,880 there a uap 1801 01:14:38,229 --> 01:14:37,040 now you can collect that data too and 1802 01:14:41,430 --> 01:14:38,239 they know 1803 01:14:43,669 --> 01:14:41,440 when a uap is in our airspace and i 1804 01:14:46,149 --> 01:14:43,679 think that is what he is pointing out 1805 01:14:48,390 --> 01:14:46,159 that they can't continue to stiff arm 1806 01:14:51,189 --> 01:14:48,400 because they know with these advanced 1807 01:14:54,550 --> 01:14:51,199 systems not only in space but on ground 1808 01:14:57,669 --> 01:14:54,560 on ships everywhere in airports that 1809 01:14:59,830 --> 01:14:57,679 they are able to determine what is there 1810 01:15:02,470 --> 01:14:59,840 and collect that data and that's the 1811 01:15:05,030 --> 01:15:02,480 point that chris is making where is this 1812 01:15:06,950 --> 01:15:05,040 uap data that they are collecting with 1813 01:15:09,110 --> 01:15:06,960 these advanced systems 1814 01:15:10,470 --> 01:15:09,120 yeah well the other side of this too 1815 01:15:12,070 --> 01:15:10,480 again is you know coming back to that 1816 01:15:14,790 --> 01:15:12,080 point i was making earlier and you know 1817 01:15:17,110 --> 01:15:14,800 all your points very valid jimmy 1818 01:15:19,750 --> 01:15:17,120 it's either impossible that they 1819 01:15:21,270 --> 01:15:19,760 couldn't be detecting these things or if 1820 01:15:23,750 --> 01:15:21,280 they are and they say that they aren't 1821 01:15:25,350 --> 01:15:23,760 then that is a tremendous oversight on 1822 01:15:27,750 --> 01:15:25,360 their part i mean that raises more 1823 01:15:29,910 --> 01:15:27,760 concerns than anything else and so then 1824 01:15:31,189 --> 01:15:29,920 we're left saying well if you guys say 1825 01:15:33,350 --> 01:15:31,199 that you're not paying attention with 1826 01:15:34,390 --> 01:15:33,360 all of the equipment capabilities 1827 01:15:36,630 --> 01:15:34,400 knowing 1828 01:15:38,390 --> 01:15:36,640 how much and how often the navy seems to 1829 01:15:41,110 --> 01:15:38,400 be detecting these things if the air 1830 01:15:42,790 --> 01:15:41,120 force is not doing the same again to me 1831 01:15:44,390 --> 01:15:42,800 i think we can essentially rule that 1832 01:15:46,709 --> 01:15:44,400 possibility out 1833 01:15:49,110 --> 01:15:46,719 there is no way based on the outline 1834 01:15:50,950 --> 01:15:49,120 that chris provides in the article in 1835 01:15:52,630 --> 01:15:50,960 terms of the equipment at our disposal 1836 01:15:54,470 --> 01:15:52,640 there's simply no way that the us air 1837 01:15:55,910 --> 01:15:54,480 force is not and i think we all 1838 01:15:57,750 --> 01:15:55,920 intuitively 1839 01:15:59,350 --> 01:15:57,760 and logically can discern that so if we 1840 01:16:00,950 --> 01:15:59,360 can rule that one out right then we're 1841 01:16:02,790 --> 01:16:00,960 left with only one other possibility 1842 01:16:04,310 --> 01:16:02,800 they are either lying or they are 1843 01:16:06,390 --> 01:16:04,320 ignoring now i don't want to try and you 1844 01:16:07,669 --> 01:16:06,400 know make a strong claim or to try and 1845 01:16:09,910 --> 01:16:07,679 you know come up against them our air 1846 01:16:11,669 --> 01:16:09,920 force is lying to us although perhaps 1847 01:16:13,669 --> 01:16:11,679 there is some historical precedent for 1848 01:16:15,110 --> 01:16:13,679 that at times and also for a degree of 1849 01:16:16,470 --> 01:16:15,120 controlling of the narrative which we'll 1850 01:16:17,830 --> 01:16:16,480 talk about a bit later too when we get 1851 01:16:19,350 --> 01:16:17,840 into the history 1852 01:16:22,310 --> 01:16:19,360 but i definitely think that what we have 1853 01:16:24,310 --> 01:16:22,320 to recognize is that in any case 1854 01:16:26,709 --> 01:16:24,320 if their official position is that they 1855 01:16:28,709 --> 01:16:26,719 aren't finding ufos or evidence of 1856 01:16:30,310 --> 01:16:28,719 unknowns and they are certainly not 1857 01:16:31,830 --> 01:16:30,320 supplying significant amounts of 1858 01:16:34,550 --> 01:16:31,840 information about what they detect to 1859 01:16:36,870 --> 01:16:34,560 the navy and its uap task force 1860 01:16:39,750 --> 01:16:36,880 or any successful organizations 1861 01:16:41,990 --> 01:16:39,760 i mean this is a i would dare call it a 1862 01:16:43,910 --> 01:16:42,000 national security issue 1863 01:16:45,430 --> 01:16:43,920 a concern because again if there are 1864 01:16:47,189 --> 01:16:45,440 unknowns in our skies 1865 01:16:48,950 --> 01:16:47,199 what's being done about that is it just 1866 01:16:51,510 --> 01:16:48,960 being overlooked and ignored 1867 01:16:54,149 --> 01:16:51,520 by the branch of the military whose job 1868 01:16:56,630 --> 01:16:54,159 it is to surveil the skies i mean again 1869 01:16:57,510 --> 01:16:56,640 that's a real issue to me 1870 01:16:58,950 --> 01:16:57,520 and 1871 01:17:05,830 --> 01:16:58,960 he 1872 01:17:07,750 --> 01:17:05,840 with our space-based radar systems and 1873 01:17:08,950 --> 01:17:07,760 uh that's specifically scanned in the 1874 01:17:11,510 --> 01:17:08,960 infrared 1875 01:17:14,830 --> 01:17:11,520 and and also the asus system 1876 01:17:18,390 --> 01:17:14,840 but which takes me back to 1877 01:17:19,910 --> 01:17:18,400 radcliffe and his comments about fast 1878 01:17:22,149 --> 01:17:19,920 walkers and 1879 01:17:24,790 --> 01:17:22,159 and that we have been monitoring stuff 1880 01:17:29,430 --> 01:17:24,800 coming into our star system into our 1881 01:17:32,870 --> 01:17:29,440 solar system and into and back away from 1882 01:17:36,630 --> 01:17:32,880 you know uh leaving earth to as well 1883 01:17:39,669 --> 01:17:36,640 and that that stuff is detected by the 1884 01:17:42,310 --> 01:17:39,679 satellites that we have in space correct 1885 01:17:43,910 --> 01:17:42,320 that's what we've at least heard yes 1886 01:17:45,110 --> 01:17:43,920 indeed and again here's an interesting 1887 01:17:47,430 --> 01:17:45,120 one and chris and i actually talked 1888 01:17:48,790 --> 01:17:47,440 about this uh what's really interesting 1889 01:17:50,950 --> 01:17:48,800 is not so much the fact that we can 1890 01:17:53,030 --> 01:17:50,960 track unknowns in our airspace 1891 01:17:54,630 --> 01:17:53,040 and they from time to time also may be 1892 01:17:57,189 --> 01:17:54,640 tracked i mean there are a lot of things 1893 01:17:59,510 --> 01:17:57,199 in orbit and of course you know norad's 1894 01:18:01,270 --> 01:17:59,520 capabilities as i understand it extend 1895 01:18:02,709 --> 01:18:01,280 to space as you mentioned we've talked a 1896 01:18:04,790 --> 01:18:02,719 little bit about the world's so-called 1897 01:18:07,310 --> 01:18:04,800 most advanced radar right you know the 1898 01:18:09,590 --> 01:18:07,320 space fence i'm actually looking at the 1899 01:18:11,669 --> 01:18:09,600 lockheedmartin.com website 1900 01:18:13,669 --> 01:18:11,679 with a page about this which chris i 1901 01:18:15,110 --> 01:18:13,679 believe links to in the article again 1902 01:18:17,830 --> 01:18:15,120 now the world's most advanced radar 1903 01:18:19,510 --> 01:18:17,840 provides unqueued detection tracking an 1904 01:18:21,510 --> 01:18:19,520 accurate measurement of space objects 1905 01:18:23,669 --> 01:18:21,520 including satellites and orbital debris 1906 01:18:26,310 --> 01:18:23,679 primarily in low earth orbit 1907 01:18:28,229 --> 01:18:26,320 but the really interesting idea here is 1908 01:18:30,470 --> 01:18:28,239 you know surely they must have the 1909 01:18:31,750 --> 01:18:30,480 equipment capabilities to detect objects 1910 01:18:34,229 --> 01:18:31,760 that actually 1911 01:18:35,990 --> 01:18:34,239 first appear in orbit but then actually 1912 01:18:38,229 --> 01:18:36,000 make the transition 1913 01:18:41,189 --> 01:18:38,239 out of space and into the actual 1914 01:18:44,070 --> 01:18:41,199 atmosphere if there are objects entering 1915 01:18:46,229 --> 01:18:44,080 our atmosphere from space guys look we 1916 01:18:47,510 --> 01:18:46,239 should be very quickly and easily able 1917 01:18:49,669 --> 01:18:47,520 to rule out 1918 01:18:51,669 --> 01:18:49,679 any known contenders in those instances 1919 01:18:53,590 --> 01:18:51,679 if you don't have a rocket re-entry or a 1920 01:18:55,510 --> 01:18:53,600 planned satellite re-entry 1921 01:18:57,990 --> 01:18:55,520 i mean there are systems you or i can 1922 01:18:59,830 --> 01:18:58,000 log on online and we can follow those 1923 01:19:02,070 --> 01:18:59,840 those systems and know when we're 1924 01:19:04,630 --> 01:19:02,080 expecting satellite re-entries you know 1925 01:19:06,550 --> 01:19:04,640 rocket re-entries spacecraft re-entering 1926 01:19:08,390 --> 01:19:06,560 earth's atmosphere from you know 1927 01:19:10,630 --> 01:19:08,400 traveling into space and when we don't 1928 01:19:12,390 --> 01:19:10,640 know what we're seeing coming into our 1929 01:19:14,790 --> 01:19:12,400 atmosphere i mean again not only is that 1930 01:19:16,390 --> 01:19:14,800 easily discernible but that's really an 1931 01:19:18,550 --> 01:19:16,400 outlier because that's not any kind of 1932 01:19:20,790 --> 01:19:18,560 conventional aircraft you know that's 1933 01:19:23,270 --> 01:19:20,800 not it's probably not any kind of 1934 01:19:25,110 --> 01:19:23,280 unnatural phenomenon or rather i should 1935 01:19:27,189 --> 01:19:25,120 say a natural phenomenon because again 1936 01:19:28,870 --> 01:19:27,199 you know meteors 1937 01:19:32,310 --> 01:19:28,880 space rocks and what have you that's a 1938 01:19:33,830 --> 01:19:32,320 fairly common thing and we know how 1939 01:19:35,350 --> 01:19:33,840 those kinds of things those sorts of 1940 01:19:37,430 --> 01:19:35,360 natural 1941 01:19:39,270 --> 01:19:37,440 possibilities how they would behave 1942 01:19:41,189 --> 01:19:39,280 we're seeing clearly in some instances 1943 01:19:42,950 --> 01:19:41,199 objects that appear to be controlled 1944 01:19:45,189 --> 01:19:42,960 they are capable of not only incredible 1945 01:19:47,510 --> 01:19:45,199 acceleration or as the uap task force 1946 01:19:48,630 --> 01:19:47,520 report the odni report from last june 1947 01:19:50,470 --> 01:19:48,640 said 1948 01:19:52,070 --> 01:19:50,480 unusual flight characteristics 1949 01:19:54,550 --> 01:19:52,080 again if we would expound on what that 1950 01:19:57,430 --> 01:19:54,560 might mean that might seem to indicate 1951 01:19:59,750 --> 01:19:57,440 uh acceleration uh you know stopping on 1952 01:20:01,830 --> 01:19:59,760 a dime turning again meteors don't 1953 01:20:04,070 --> 01:20:01,840 change course in flight but often these 1954 01:20:06,629 --> 01:20:04,080 uap are described as having done that so 1955 01:20:08,470 --> 01:20:06,639 presumably if the space fence is capable 1956 01:20:09,990 --> 01:20:08,480 of detecting something along these lines 1957 01:20:11,510 --> 01:20:10,000 that has these kinds of anomalous 1958 01:20:13,430 --> 01:20:11,520 characteristics in its flight path and 1959 01:20:15,910 --> 01:20:13,440 it also is traversing the boundary from 1960 01:20:17,590 --> 01:20:15,920 orbit into our atmosphere i would be 1961 01:20:19,270 --> 01:20:17,600 very interested in that now one more 1962 01:20:20,550 --> 01:20:19,280 thing to add to that though and chris 1963 01:20:23,030 --> 01:20:20,560 points this out in the article also you 1964 01:20:24,310 --> 01:20:23,040 know norad's also got its pathfinder ai 1965 01:20:26,870 --> 01:20:24,320 program 1966 01:20:29,270 --> 01:20:26,880 which is presumably attempting its 1967 01:20:31,270 --> 01:20:29,280 design to do this anyway to to identify 1968 01:20:32,470 --> 01:20:31,280 patterns in various things that are 1969 01:20:35,510 --> 01:20:32,480 detected 1970 01:20:37,990 --> 01:20:35,520 and you know if if it is capable of 1971 01:20:39,830 --> 01:20:38,000 spotting patterns and trends 1972 01:20:41,430 --> 01:20:39,840 in unknowns even if we don't know what 1973 01:20:42,950 --> 01:20:41,440 they are i mean it would be very 1974 01:20:44,709 --> 01:20:42,960 interesting to 1975 01:20:46,070 --> 01:20:44,719 imagine what kind of data might be 1976 01:20:47,750 --> 01:20:46,080 gleaned and in fact that's what chris 1977 01:20:48,870 --> 01:20:47,760 asks in the article at one point he says 1978 01:20:50,870 --> 01:20:48,880 it would be fascinating to know what 1979 01:20:52,470 --> 01:20:50,880 patterns norad's pathfinder ai program 1980 01:20:53,669 --> 01:20:52,480 may have identified among the thousands 1981 01:20:56,550 --> 01:20:53,679 of incidents 1982 01:20:57,669 --> 01:20:56,560 of knowns and unknowns identified by 1983 01:20:59,270 --> 01:20:57,679 norad 1984 01:21:00,950 --> 01:20:59,280 and that's right i said thousands and he 1985 01:21:02,790 --> 01:21:00,960 talks about why there are thousands we 1986 01:21:05,910 --> 01:21:02,800 can get into that a little later too yes 1987 01:21:08,149 --> 01:21:05,920 yes yes and then uh as he starts the 1988 01:21:11,189 --> 01:21:08,159 article he ends with this uh with his 1989 01:21:13,350 --> 01:21:11,199 intro and i want your comment on this uh 1990 01:21:15,510 --> 01:21:13,360 it is just profound 1991 01:21:18,390 --> 01:21:15,520 uh and he you know what i'm gonna say 1992 01:21:21,430 --> 01:21:18,400 right now uh chris didn't pull a single 1993 01:21:23,110 --> 01:21:21,440 punch here he didn't soften any blows he 1994 01:21:25,510 --> 01:21:23,120 didn't pull any punches 1995 01:21:27,830 --> 01:21:25,520 which is this he says uh 1996 01:21:31,189 --> 01:21:27,840 it's also worth noting that in addition 1997 01:21:33,990 --> 01:21:31,199 to the 144 uap incidents identified in 1998 01:21:36,390 --> 01:21:34,000 the dni's preliminary report 1999 01:21:39,030 --> 01:21:36,400 civilians reported tens of thousands of 2000 01:21:41,030 --> 01:21:39,040 uap to civilian organizations like the 2001 01:21:43,669 --> 01:21:41,040 mutual ufo network 2002 01:21:46,470 --> 01:21:43,679 during the same period often with photos 2003 01:21:49,830 --> 01:21:46,480 or video further hundreds of commercial 2004 01:21:52,310 --> 01:21:49,840 airline pilots reported seeing uap 2005 01:21:55,430 --> 01:21:52,320 how likely is it 2006 01:21:59,750 --> 01:21:55,440 then that no u.s air force pilots 2007 01:22:02,229 --> 01:21:59,760 encountered uap during the same period 2008 01:22:05,590 --> 01:22:02,239 that's what we all want to know how how 2009 01:22:06,950 --> 01:22:05,600 is that possible i don't think it is 2010 01:22:08,870 --> 01:22:06,960 that's the thing now you know in the 2011 01:22:11,350 --> 01:22:08,880 odni report 2012 01:22:13,430 --> 01:22:11,360 the authors do say that the task force 2013 01:22:14,390 --> 01:22:13,440 had been coordinating with the u.s air 2014 01:22:17,030 --> 01:22:14,400 force 2015 01:22:18,550 --> 01:22:17,040 and that future efforts would include 2016 01:22:20,310 --> 01:22:18,560 more involvement from the air force but 2017 01:22:21,430 --> 01:22:20,320 there was no clear indication in the 2018 01:22:23,189 --> 01:22:21,440 report 2019 01:22:25,590 --> 01:22:23,199 that the air force had been supplying 2020 01:22:27,910 --> 01:22:25,600 information on uap it collected directly 2021 01:22:29,189 --> 01:22:27,920 to the task force 2022 01:22:30,629 --> 01:22:29,199 and that's a point that chris you know 2023 01:22:32,149 --> 01:22:30,639 makes in his article and i'd asked him 2024 01:22:34,310 --> 01:22:32,159 at one point as well 2025 01:22:35,350 --> 01:22:34,320 i mean is it your understanding that the 2026 01:22:37,990 --> 01:22:35,360 air force 2027 01:22:39,750 --> 01:22:38,000 had not been supplying information and 2028 01:22:42,470 --> 01:22:39,760 indeed if we go back to his political 2029 01:22:43,590 --> 01:22:42,480 article from i guess it was probably in 2030 01:22:45,669 --> 01:22:43,600 may 2031 01:22:47,430 --> 01:22:45,679 of last year it was you know a few weeks 2032 01:22:49,910 --> 01:22:47,440 before we actually learned via the new 2033 01:22:51,750 --> 01:22:49,920 york times and its advanced reporting 2034 01:22:53,350 --> 01:22:51,760 that the report was complete that some 2035 01:22:54,550 --> 01:22:53,360 on capitol hill had already been briefed 2036 01:22:56,229 --> 01:22:54,560 about it and that we'd be seeing it on 2037 01:22:58,149 --> 01:22:56,239 time and in fact we did 2038 01:22:59,910 --> 01:22:58,159 in that article that brian bender did in 2039 01:23:01,510 --> 01:22:59,920 politico i mean he quotes chris mellon 2040 01:23:03,590 --> 01:23:01,520 saying you know i've heard it directly 2041 01:23:06,470 --> 01:23:03,600 from some members of the u.s air force 2042 01:23:07,750 --> 01:23:06,480 that they were told right don't don't 2043 01:23:09,110 --> 01:23:07,760 you know willingly provide any 2044 01:23:10,709 --> 01:23:09,120 information the uap task force 2045 01:23:12,310 --> 01:23:10,719 everything's got to be cleared and we've 2046 01:23:13,830 --> 01:23:12,320 got to go through one of our 2047 01:23:15,990 --> 01:23:13,840 other agencies 2048 01:23:17,189 --> 01:23:16,000 you know we we want to manage this very 2049 01:23:18,709 --> 01:23:17,199 carefully in other words but that's 2050 01:23:20,950 --> 01:23:18,719 where the term stiff armed came up 2051 01:23:22,390 --> 01:23:20,960 because again members of the task force 2052 01:23:23,590 --> 01:23:22,400 they were supposed to be granted to all 2053 01:23:25,030 --> 01:23:23,600 of this information that's been 2054 01:23:26,950 --> 01:23:25,040 collected by branches the military and 2055 01:23:28,709 --> 01:23:26,960 the intelligence community and it seemed 2056 01:23:30,550 --> 01:23:28,719 like that was indeed not what was 2057 01:23:32,070 --> 01:23:30,560 happening now i might be able to 2058 01:23:33,750 --> 01:23:32,080 understand i mean again there's 2059 01:23:35,750 --> 01:23:33,760 historical precedent when we look at the 2060 01:23:37,350 --> 01:23:35,760 nsa i don't necessarily agree with it 2061 01:23:38,709 --> 01:23:37,360 but then again i also don't understand 2062 01:23:40,229 --> 01:23:38,719 all of the specifics because they've 2063 01:23:42,950 --> 01:23:40,239 never released this 2064 01:23:46,310 --> 01:23:42,960 back in the 1980s 2065 01:23:48,310 --> 01:23:46,320 citizens against ufo secrecy calls right 2066 01:23:50,709 --> 01:23:48,320 peter gersten and of course barry 2067 01:23:52,790 --> 01:23:50,719 greenwood uh larry fawcett a lot of guys 2068 01:23:53,990 --> 01:23:52,800 brad sparks they were diligently working 2069 01:23:55,990 --> 01:23:54,000 to try and use the freedom of 2070 01:23:58,229 --> 01:23:56,000 information act to appeal to government 2071 01:24:00,070 --> 01:23:58,239 agencies to get information on ufos and 2072 01:24:02,229 --> 01:24:00,080 they did a tremendous job a great book 2073 01:24:04,390 --> 01:24:02,239 was uh written about this effort 2074 01:24:05,750 --> 01:24:04,400 collectively by greenwood and fawcett 2075 01:24:07,350 --> 01:24:05,760 it's called clear intent it was 2076 01:24:09,590 --> 01:24:07,360 republished under the title the ufo 2077 01:24:10,709 --> 01:24:09,600 cover-up you can still find it online 2078 01:24:13,750 --> 01:24:10,719 but 2079 01:24:16,310 --> 01:24:13,760 this book outlines of every different 2080 01:24:17,830 --> 01:24:16,320 agency and the successful and sometimes 2081 01:24:19,910 --> 01:24:17,840 unsuccessful attempts at trying to 2082 01:24:21,910 --> 01:24:19,920 appeal to these agencies uh with with 2083 01:24:24,149 --> 01:24:21,920 foia to get information when it came to 2084 01:24:26,709 --> 01:24:24,159 the nsa and this was the real sticking 2085 01:24:27,990 --> 01:24:26,719 point the nsa didn't want to supply 2086 01:24:28,950 --> 01:24:28,000 first they said that they didn't have 2087 01:24:31,030 --> 01:24:28,960 anything 2088 01:24:33,110 --> 01:24:31,040 but then i think in response maybe to i 2089 01:24:35,990 --> 01:24:33,120 think it was an fbi query 2090 01:24:37,590 --> 01:24:36,000 uh it was either the fbi or the cia 2091 01:24:39,750 --> 01:24:37,600 they get a response from a query saying 2092 01:24:41,270 --> 01:24:39,760 that they had to get permission to 2093 01:24:43,910 --> 01:24:41,280 retrieve certain files i believe from 2094 01:24:45,430 --> 01:24:43,920 the nsa and thereby inadvertently 2095 01:24:47,350 --> 01:24:45,440 revealed the fact that the nsa had 2096 01:24:49,110 --> 01:24:47,360 documents so they referred to that in a 2097 01:24:50,629 --> 01:24:49,120 subsequent foia and said this agency 2098 01:24:52,470 --> 01:24:50,639 says you guys have got files which you 2099 01:24:53,669 --> 01:24:52,480 recently told us you didn't we want to 2100 01:24:55,990 --> 01:24:53,679 know what's in those files so then they 2101 01:24:57,910 --> 01:24:56,000 were given some files but they were also 2102 01:24:59,510 --> 01:24:57,920 told that there were you know a 2103 01:25:02,310 --> 01:24:59,520 significant number that would not be 2104 01:25:04,149 --> 01:25:02,320 revealed this led to a lawsuit 2105 01:25:07,910 --> 01:25:04,159 and what ended up happening had been 2106 01:25:09,750 --> 01:25:07,920 that a district judge ruled in favor 2107 01:25:11,189 --> 01:25:09,760 of the nsa and said that you know the 2108 01:25:13,510 --> 01:25:11,199 public interest 2109 01:25:15,270 --> 01:25:13,520 is not significant enough in comparison 2110 01:25:16,870 --> 01:25:15,280 to the national security threat that 2111 01:25:18,790 --> 01:25:16,880 this might pose if these documents are 2112 01:25:20,470 --> 01:25:18,800 released it would release information 2113 01:25:22,709 --> 01:25:20,480 that our enemies might be able to to 2114 01:25:25,030 --> 01:25:22,719 exploit and use against us information 2115 01:25:26,790 --> 01:25:25,040 about how we collect information and it 2116 01:25:28,950 --> 01:25:26,800 just so again what we can kind of 2117 01:25:31,110 --> 01:25:28,960 extrapolate from all that jimmy is that 2118 01:25:32,790 --> 01:25:31,120 it seems that the detection of ufo 2119 01:25:34,790 --> 01:25:32,800 information from time to time is like a 2120 01:25:36,870 --> 01:25:34,800 byproduct of our other intelligence 2121 01:25:38,390 --> 01:25:36,880 gathering apparatus and information 2122 01:25:41,110 --> 01:25:38,400 systems the problem is they want to 2123 01:25:43,510 --> 01:25:41,120 protect that but the ufo information 2124 01:25:45,270 --> 01:25:43,520 isn't released as a result now that is 2125 01:25:47,270 --> 01:25:45,280 an instance i think we could say maybe 2126 01:25:49,110 --> 01:25:47,280 where you would expect some information 2127 01:25:50,870 --> 01:25:49,120 wouldn't be passed along and you know i 2128 01:25:53,350 --> 01:25:50,880 have to say that even if i would really 2129 01:25:55,830 --> 01:25:53,360 like to see those files i could justify 2130 01:25:57,350 --> 01:25:55,840 in my mind why we haven't john greenwald 2131 01:25:59,110 --> 01:25:57,360 and plenty of others have continued to 2132 01:26:00,550 --> 01:25:59,120 try and get those nsa files now they say 2133 01:26:02,629 --> 01:26:00,560 they don't exist what happened were they 2134 01:26:04,470 --> 01:26:02,639 destroyed i think that's against the law 2135 01:26:06,950 --> 01:26:04,480 but it's a whole different story when we 2136 01:26:08,790 --> 01:26:06,960 see the uap task force saying you know 2137 01:26:10,550 --> 01:26:08,800 we're not getting information 2138 01:26:12,790 --> 01:26:10,560 from the air force i mean this is a 2139 01:26:15,590 --> 01:26:12,800 branch of the military well is that 2140 01:26:16,550 --> 01:26:15,600 because well is it because i don't want 2141 01:26:18,629 --> 01:26:16,560 to 2142 01:26:21,750 --> 01:26:18,639 ruin your train of thought 2143 01:26:24,709 --> 01:26:21,760 but is it because after the air force 2144 01:26:28,790 --> 01:26:24,719 publicly closed blue book 2145 01:26:29,910 --> 01:26:28,800 that uh lawmakers policymakers capitol 2146 01:26:31,350 --> 01:26:29,920 hill 2147 01:26:32,870 --> 01:26:31,360 just 2148 01:26:34,830 --> 01:26:32,880 stayed away from the air force and 2149 01:26:37,990 --> 01:26:34,840 didn't want to talk to them about 2150 01:26:40,950 --> 01:26:38,000 ufos and and the air force got used to 2151 01:26:43,830 --> 01:26:40,960 that and and maybe 2152 01:26:44,709 --> 01:26:43,840 maybe people were just on the civilian 2153 01:26:47,590 --> 01:26:44,719 side 2154 01:26:49,510 --> 01:26:47,600 gun shy right and they didn't want to 2155 01:26:52,149 --> 01:26:49,520 approach and then 2156 01:26:54,550 --> 01:26:52,159 the air force just got acclimated to it 2157 01:26:56,790 --> 01:26:54,560 and they felt like they were you know 2158 01:26:59,590 --> 01:26:56,800 covered in teflon and they didn't have 2159 01:27:01,750 --> 01:26:59,600 to answer questions about ufos 2160 01:27:03,510 --> 01:27:01,760 well you know i have a slightly 2161 01:27:05,990 --> 01:27:03,520 different take on it 2162 01:27:07,910 --> 01:27:06,000 i think that what you outline you know 2163 01:27:10,229 --> 01:27:07,920 the the period in history and its 2164 01:27:11,350 --> 01:27:10,239 relevance to all this is key 2165 01:27:12,870 --> 01:27:11,360 but i have a different take i don't 2166 01:27:14,310 --> 01:27:12,880 think it's that people just stopped 2167 01:27:16,550 --> 01:27:14,320 going to the air force and therefore 2168 01:27:18,870 --> 01:27:16,560 they were like oh we're out of that game 2169 01:27:22,149 --> 01:27:18,880 i think that actually what happened was 2170 01:27:25,110 --> 01:27:22,159 the air force by the mid-1960s 2171 01:27:26,470 --> 01:27:25,120 really wanted to get out of the ufo 2172 01:27:28,229 --> 01:27:26,480 investigation business there are a 2173 01:27:29,830 --> 01:27:28,239 number of reasons why and we can go a 2174 01:27:32,229 --> 01:27:29,840 little deeper into that 2175 01:27:34,070 --> 01:27:32,239 but what we saw happen essentially was 2176 01:27:35,750 --> 01:27:34,080 they said look you know okay we are at 2177 01:27:37,510 --> 01:27:35,760 our wit's end and perhaps also at the 2178 01:27:39,590 --> 01:27:37,520 limits of our technical 2179 01:27:41,110 --> 01:27:39,600 and scientific ability to study this we 2180 01:27:42,870 --> 01:27:41,120 need to try and get the scientific 2181 01:27:44,390 --> 01:27:42,880 establishment to look at this 2182 01:27:46,390 --> 01:27:44,400 they went of course historically this is 2183 01:27:47,669 --> 01:27:46,400 well known they went to numerous 2184 01:27:51,030 --> 01:27:47,679 universities and they couldn't get a 2185 01:27:53,189 --> 01:27:51,040 university to take their money and study 2186 01:27:55,270 --> 01:27:53,199 ufos for them until they finally came to 2187 01:27:56,709 --> 01:27:55,280 the university of colorado there were 2188 01:27:58,310 --> 01:27:56,719 some sympathetic 2189 01:28:00,550 --> 01:27:58,320 members of the staff 2190 01:28:02,149 --> 01:28:00,560 who were you know they were amenable to 2191 01:28:04,229 --> 01:28:02,159 the idea of this kind of a study being 2192 01:28:06,390 --> 01:28:04,239 done and that of course famously led to 2193 01:28:07,669 --> 01:28:06,400 the condon committee under edward yukon 2194 01:28:09,910 --> 01:28:07,679 formerly known as the university of 2195 01:28:12,149 --> 01:28:09,920 colorado ufo project 2196 01:28:13,590 --> 01:28:12,159 uh the result of that and again that's a 2197 01:28:15,270 --> 01:28:13,600 whole another conversation but i'd like 2198 01:28:15,990 --> 01:28:15,280 to touch on that a little too throughout 2199 01:28:17,350 --> 01:28:16,000 the 2200 01:28:19,990 --> 01:28:17,360 conversation here 2201 01:28:21,990 --> 01:28:20,000 the result of that that study in short 2202 01:28:23,830 --> 01:28:22,000 order here was simply that they said 2203 01:28:26,149 --> 01:28:23,840 look there's no scientific benefit that 2204 01:28:27,669 --> 01:28:26,159 we found to ufos being studied and 2205 01:28:30,070 --> 01:28:27,679 because of that 2206 01:28:32,390 --> 01:28:30,080 our advice to the federal government is 2207 01:28:34,390 --> 01:28:32,400 since science isn't being advanced don't 2208 01:28:36,550 --> 01:28:34,400 study ufos taxpayer dollars shouldn't be 2209 01:28:38,470 --> 01:28:36,560 wasted on this now maybe years later 2210 01:28:40,629 --> 01:28:38,480 condon later said we could come back and 2211 01:28:41,590 --> 01:28:40,639 we could revisit this this subject maybe 2212 01:28:43,590 --> 01:28:41,600 when we're better equipped 2213 01:28:45,750 --> 01:28:43,600 technologically and scientifically but 2214 01:28:47,510 --> 01:28:45,760 right now we don't see any benefit 2215 01:28:49,350 --> 01:28:47,520 it's no coincidence in my mind that the 2216 01:28:50,629 --> 01:28:49,360 next year i mean anybody can see what 2217 01:28:53,189 --> 01:28:50,639 happened there the following year the 2218 01:28:55,189 --> 01:28:53,199 air force closed project blue book 2219 01:28:57,669 --> 01:28:55,199 and they had officially their official 2220 01:28:59,990 --> 01:28:57,679 stance remained for decades the you know 2221 01:29:02,310 --> 01:29:00,000 we studied we carried out the longest 2222 01:29:04,310 --> 01:29:02,320 systematic study by a military body of 2223 01:29:05,910 --> 01:29:04,320 the uap they called it ufos but you know 2224 01:29:07,750 --> 01:29:05,920 that that subject 2225 01:29:09,110 --> 01:29:07,760 we don't study that anymore now here's 2226 01:29:10,470 --> 01:29:09,120 the catch and this is where things get 2227 01:29:12,629 --> 01:29:10,480 really interesting though 2228 01:29:14,390 --> 01:29:12,639 as recently as maybe 2015 there was 2229 01:29:16,229 --> 01:29:14,400 there was still a fact page that i found 2230 01:29:19,510 --> 01:29:16,239 archived on the department of defense 2231 01:29:22,070 --> 01:29:19,520 website which had a actual 2232 01:29:24,070 --> 01:29:22,080 uh statement on ufos and it said as you 2233 01:29:26,310 --> 01:29:24,080 may know it actually says this in the in 2234 01:29:27,110 --> 01:29:26,320 the in the fact page as you may know 2235 01:29:29,430 --> 01:29:27,120 uh 2236 01:29:32,229 --> 01:29:29,440 the department of defense or dod rather 2237 01:29:34,390 --> 01:29:32,239 never studies this any longer as of the 2238 01:29:35,990 --> 01:29:34,400 closure of project blue book in 1969 the 2239 01:29:36,950 --> 01:29:36,000 military is out of the ufo investigative 2240 01:29:38,790 --> 01:29:36,960 game 2241 01:29:41,110 --> 01:29:38,800 what's of course paradoxical about that 2242 01:29:43,590 --> 01:29:41,120 is that in 2015 we know that there had 2243 01:29:45,270 --> 01:29:43,600 been prior to that even uh the all-sap 2244 01:29:48,470 --> 01:29:45,280 program that james lucaski ran out of 2245 01:29:50,790 --> 01:29:48,480 the dia which is a combat support agency 2246 01:29:53,510 --> 01:29:50,800 uh to the department of defense but then 2247 01:29:55,270 --> 01:29:53,520 we also have the uh atip informal 2248 01:29:56,790 --> 01:29:55,280 initiative as they say which louisando 2249 01:29:58,870 --> 01:29:56,800 was a part of all that was going on 2250 01:29:59,669 --> 01:29:58,880 while the dod on its website said as you 2251 01:30:01,270 --> 01:29:59,679 know 2252 01:30:03,110 --> 01:30:01,280 we don't look at this issue anymore 2253 01:30:05,750 --> 01:30:03,120 right and that all goes back to the end 2254 01:30:07,830 --> 01:30:05,760 of project blue book but again in in my 2255 01:30:09,189 --> 01:30:07,840 perspective it wasn't a matter of people 2256 01:30:10,790 --> 01:30:09,199 just quit going to the air force the air 2257 01:30:12,390 --> 01:30:10,800 force had been looking for an out and 2258 01:30:14,310 --> 01:30:12,400 they were more than willing to accept it 2259 01:30:16,070 --> 01:30:14,320 when the condon committee said our 2260 01:30:17,350 --> 01:30:16,080 advice to the federal government stop 2261 01:30:20,070 --> 01:30:17,360 looking at this 2262 01:30:22,149 --> 01:30:20,080 and it and and again and back to your 2263 01:30:24,870 --> 01:30:22,159 point and chris mellon's point 2264 01:30:28,470 --> 01:30:24,880 it's an absolute impossibility 2265 01:30:31,350 --> 01:30:28,480 that air force pilots have not witnessed 2266 01:30:33,189 --> 01:30:31,360 uh uaps and ufos in the skies and filed 2267 01:30:34,629 --> 01:30:33,199 reports and they've collected data in 2268 01:30:37,110 --> 01:30:34,639 addition to 2269 01:30:39,430 --> 01:30:37,120 all of the super advanced radar 2270 01:30:41,669 --> 01:30:39,440 installations that they've got watching 2271 01:30:43,750 --> 01:30:41,679 the skies that they 2272 01:30:45,990 --> 01:30:43,760 they have no interest in ufos or that 2273 01:30:48,709 --> 01:30:46,000 they don't know what's going on and they 2274 01:30:50,870 --> 01:30:48,719 don't have information to share not only 2275 01:30:52,629 --> 01:30:50,880 with the task force but with the senate 2276 01:30:54,149 --> 01:30:52,639 intelligence committee 2277 01:30:55,830 --> 01:30:54,159 right absolutely well you know and 2278 01:30:57,430 --> 01:30:55,840 here's the thing i mean if we go back in 2279 01:30:58,950 --> 01:30:57,440 history again there is documented 2280 01:31:01,189 --> 01:30:58,960 evidence that supports the idea that 2281 01:31:02,870 --> 01:31:01,199 even after blue book there continued to 2282 01:31:05,270 --> 01:31:02,880 be uh 2283 01:31:08,070 --> 01:31:05,280 methods and procedures by which 2284 01:31:09,590 --> 01:31:08,080 ufo reports could be gathered and could 2285 01:31:11,430 --> 01:31:09,600 be processed if indeed they were deemed 2286 01:31:12,870 --> 01:31:11,440 to be something that was of significant 2287 01:31:14,310 --> 01:31:12,880 enough national security interest you 2288 01:31:17,030 --> 01:31:14,320 remember stanton friedman talking about 2289 01:31:18,310 --> 01:31:17,040 of course the famous uh service merint 2290 01:31:20,550 --> 01:31:18,320 communications instructions for 2291 01:31:21,590 --> 01:31:20,560 reporting vital intelligence sightings i 2292 01:31:23,189 --> 01:31:21,600 actually happen to have a copy of the 2293 01:31:25,750 --> 01:31:23,199 document right here in front of me and 2294 01:31:27,270 --> 01:31:25,760 it says one service merint instructions 2295 01:31:28,550 --> 01:31:27,280 lay down procedures for reporting 2296 01:31:31,110 --> 01:31:28,560 information on vital intelligence 2297 01:31:32,950 --> 01:31:31,120 sightings for hostile or unidentified 2298 01:31:35,669 --> 01:31:32,960 aircraft missiles 2299 01:31:37,830 -->

and it goes on but i mean the point is 2303 01:31:45,030 --> 01:31:42,800 is that they had said i mean 2304 01:31:47,430 --> 01:31:45,040 this this of course presumably remained 2305 01:31:49,110 --> 01:31:47,440 in effect probably for decades after 2306 01:31:51,350 --> 01:31:49,120 project blue book there certainly was 2307 01:31:53,590 --> 01:31:51,360 still a official 2308 01:31:55,669 -->

unidentified flying 2314 01:32:05,590 --> 01:32:04,239 objects so 2315 01:32:06,950 --> 01:32:05,600 i mean to say that they didn't continue 2316 01:32:08,470 --> 01:32:06,960 to collect information i

says 2449 01:38:56,149 --> 01:38:54,239 last summer i met with a number of dod 2450 01:38:57,910 --> 01:38:56,159 inspector general officials concerning 2451 01:39:01,030 --> 01:38:57,920 the inquiry into the manner in which the 2452 01:39:02,790 --> 01:39:01,040 dod has handled the uap issue when i 2453 01:39:04,790 --> 01:39:02,800 mentioned the fact that i had heard that 2454 01:39:07,270 --> 01:39:04,800 the members of the uap task force were 2455 01:39:08,870 --> 01:39:07,280 having trouble obtaining cooperation 2456 01:39:12,950 --> 01:39:08,880 from the air force 2457 01:39:15,510 --> 01:39:12,960 one of the ic officials told me quote 2458 01:39:18,149 --> 01:39:15,520 the air force is always that way for 2459 01:39:21,189 --> 01:39:18,159 some reason in my experience they are 2460 01:39:23,669 --> 01:39:21,199 not only the least cooperative but also 2461 01:39:27,830 --> 01:39:23,679 the least competent 2462 01:39:29,750 --> 01:39:27,840 program managers end quote 2463 01:39:30,709 --> 01:39:29,760 well yeah it's a rather inflammatory 2464 01:39:31,510 --> 01:39:30,719 statement 2465 01:39:33,990 --> 01:39:31,520 um 2466 01:39:35,910 --> 01:39:34,000 again i can't speak to that point myself 2467 01:39:37,350 --> 01:39:35,920 right i would like to think that there's 2468 01:39:39,669 --> 01:39:37,360 a certain 2469 01:39:41,109 --> 01:39:39,679 efficacy even eloquence to the inner 2470 01:39:43,910 --> 01:39:41,119 workings of all the different military 2471 01:39:45,990 --> 01:39:43,920 branches and that they're very capable 2472 01:39:48,070 --> 01:39:46,000 further that they are also 2473 01:39:50,390 --> 01:39:48,080 more concerned about uh you know threats 2474 01:39:51,990 --> 01:39:50,400 for instance from china from russia 2475 01:39:53,750 --> 01:39:52,000 and things like this 2476 01:39:55,109 --> 01:39:53,760 which they would deem to be quote 2477 01:39:56,950 --> 01:39:55,119 unquote real threats now again i 2478 01:39:59,030 --> 01:39:56,960 disagree on that point but i'll 2479 01:40:00,629 --> 01:39:59,040 illustrate it further by referencing a 2480 01:40:02,229 --> 01:40:00,639 quote i got from a former air force 2481 01:40:03,830 --> 01:40:02,239 official myself 2482 01:40:05,270 --> 01:40:03,840 uh there was an article i did right 2483 01:40:07,109 --> 01:40:05,280 before 2484 01:40:09,030 --> 01:40:07,119 the ndaa 2485 01:40:10,870 --> 01:40:09,040 actually passed the senate and the 2486 01:40:13,830 --> 01:40:10,880 gillibrand amendment had been included 2487 01:40:15,510 --> 01:40:13,840 so back in december okay yeah this is a 2488 01:40:17,510 --> 01:40:15,520 might have been 2489 01:40:18,229 --> 01:40:17,520 late november but probably uh december 2490 01:40:21,430 --> 01:40:18,239 and 2491 01:40:22,790 --> 01:40:21,440 you know i i quoted uh 2492 01:40:27,270 --> 01:40:22,800 uh 2493 01:40:28,550 --> 01:40:27,280 his name i was thinking brett weinstein 2494 01:40:30,310 --> 01:40:28,560 but that's a different weinstein that's 2495 01:40:32,470 --> 01:40:30,320 a whole nother weinstein but that would 2496 01:40:33,669 --> 01:40:32,480 be a good quote too though it would be 2497 01:40:35,430 --> 01:40:33,679 very interesting yeah he won't respond 2498 01:40:36,870 --> 01:40:35,440 to my emails but yeah jack weinstein 2499 01:40:38,629 --> 01:40:36,880 certainly did and he's a professor now 2500 01:40:40,229 --> 01:40:38,639 at boston university but i think he was 2501 01:40:41,669 --> 01:40:40,239 a former lieutenant colonel i believe 2502 01:40:43,750 --> 01:40:41,679 was his rank 2503 01:40:45,669 --> 01:40:43,760 and uh you know he now teaches you know 2504 01:40:47,270 --> 01:40:45,679 policy and and what have you and 2505 01:40:50,390 --> 01:40:47,280 everything drawing from his background 2506 01:40:51,910 --> 01:40:50,400 and experience with the the force but he 2507 01:40:54,070 --> 01:40:51,920 essentially said look there are so many 2508 01:40:55,990 --> 01:40:54,080 more important issues that the air force 2509 01:40:56,790 --> 01:40:56,000 should be looking at right now 2510 01:40:59,189 --> 01:40:56,800 uh 2511 01:41:01,910 --> 01:40:59,199 and uap i'm sorry is not one of them no 2512 01:41:03,430 --> 01:41:01,920 matter how important certain senators 2513 01:41:05,830 --> 01:41:03,440 think that this is 2514 01:41:07,590 --> 01:41:05,840 you know and he runs down a list of a 2515 01:41:09,270 --> 01:41:07,600 number of the and they were also very 2516 01:41:11,750 --> 01:41:09,280 important objectives with the national 2517 01:41:13,669 --> 01:41:11,760 defense uh authorization act 2518 01:41:15,350 --> 01:41:13,679 that passed earlier this year you know 2519 01:41:16,790 --> 01:41:15,360 they were included they did pass and he 2520 01:41:19,350 --> 01:41:16,800 said these kinds of things are the 2521 01:41:21,910 --> 01:41:19,360 direct threats to national security by 2522 01:41:23,990 --> 01:41:21,920 virtue of threatening the operation and 2523 01:41:25,510 --> 01:41:24,000 functionality of the air force those 2524 01:41:28,790 --> 01:41:25,520 should be the focus 2525 01:41:32,709 --> 01:41:28,800 of you know any group any military the 2526 01:41:34,629 --> 01:41:32,719 dod in some total not just you know the 2527 01:41:36,229 --> 01:41:34,639 issue over uap 2528 01:41:37,669 --> 01:41:36,239 and he's and he basically kind of ended 2529 01:41:40,310 --> 01:41:37,679 by saying let's focus on the real 2530 01:41:42,149 --> 01:41:40,320 problems uh and not create problems 2531 01:41:43,750 --> 01:41:42,159 where probably none exist 2532 01:41:45,189 --> 01:41:43,760 a lot of people 2533 01:41:48,550 --> 01:41:45,199 pointed out that 2534 01:41:50,629 --> 01:41:48,560 quote uh it was it was re-quoted on on 2535 01:41:51,669 --> 01:41:50,639 twitter and again as a journalist what 2536 01:41:53,510 --> 01:41:51,679 you want to do is you want to get 2537 01:41:55,510 --> 01:41:53,520 differing perspectives and i liked the 2538 01:41:57,030 --> 01:41:55,520 fact that you know weinstein hadn't just 2539 01:41:58,870 --> 01:41:57,040 been all in 2540 01:42:00,790 --> 01:41:58,880 necessarily on oh yes you know the 2541 01:42:02,629 --> 01:42:00,800 gillibrand amendment will be great i 2542 01:42:04,709 --> 01:42:02,639 liked that he provided an opposing 2543 01:42:06,470 --> 01:42:04,719 perspective the problem was everybody 2544 01:42:09,510 --> 01:42:06,480 grabbed that quote they were like you've 2545 01:42:11,270 --> 01:42:09,520 done a service a public service mr hanks 2546 01:42:13,430 --> 01:42:11,280 by showing 2547 01:42:15,189 --> 01:42:13,440 this establishment attitude that still 2548 01:42:16,870 --> 01:42:15,199 persists and prevails and i'm thinking 2549 01:42:18,149 --> 01:42:16,880 i'm not so sure that that's what jack 2550 01:42:19,030 --> 01:42:18,159 was trying to do when he gave me that 2551 01:42:21,109 --> 01:42:19,040 quote 2552 01:42:22,950 --> 01:42:21,119 but in the broader context of what chris 2553 01:42:24,629 --> 01:42:22,960 mellon was talking about the efficacy of 2554 01:42:26,709 --> 01:42:24,639 the air force and how this you know has 2555 01:42:27,510 --> 01:42:26,719 been challenged by some who he's spoken 2556 01:42:31,669 --> 01:42:27,520 to 2557 01:42:33,510 --> 01:42:31,679 know personally but i do know that they 2558 01:42:35,189 --> 01:42:33,520 in terms of how they handle the uap 2559 01:42:39,750 --> 01:42:35,199 issue probably many of them still 2560 01:42:41,430 --> 01:42:39,760 operate on that same sort of stigmatized 2561 01:42:42,790 --> 01:42:41,440 attitude that jack and others have 2562 01:42:45,510 --> 01:42:42,800 expressed 2563 01:42:48,870 --> 01:42:45,520 look guys we we ended investigations in 2564 01:42:50,310 --> 01:42:48,880 69 because we didn't see anything there 2565 01:42:53,030 --> 01:42:50,320 because there wasn't enough of anything 2566 01:42:55,350 --> 01:42:53,040 even when we did see actual unknowns and 2567 01:42:57,510 --> 01:42:55,360 therefore let's look at the real issues 2568 01:42:59,030 --> 01:42:57,520 now the problem there is pretty obvious 2569 01:43:00,149 --> 01:42:59,040 if you understand the history of this 2570 01:43:01,910 --> 01:43:00,159 subject 2571 01:43:02,950 --> 01:43:01,920 it's not that the air force didn't find 2572 01:43:04,629 --> 01:43:02,960 anything 2573 01:43:06,629 --> 01:43:04,639 the air force project blue book's own 2574 01:43:09,910 --> 01:43:06,639 conclusions were simply this look at no 2575 01:43:11,510 --> 01:43:09,920 point have we seen that the ufos or uap 2576 01:43:13,189 --> 01:43:11,520 as they would be called today 2577 01:43:14,390 --> 01:43:13,199 represented a direct threat to national 2578 01:43:16,229 --> 01:43:14,400 security 2579 01:43:19,189 --> 01:43:16,239 at no point did we observe anything that 2580 01:43:20,470 --> 01:43:19,199 they said in their official statement 2581 01:43:22,950 --> 01:43:20,480 that we 2582 01:43:24,629 --> 01:43:22,960 could identify as an advanced technology 2583 01:43:26,629 --> 01:43:24,639 that exceeded 2584 01:43:28,790 --> 01:43:26,639 modern science or physics 2585 01:43:30,750 --> 01:43:28,800 and finally there was nothing that we 2586 01:43:32,870 --> 01:43:30,760 ever saw that was indicative of 2587 01:43:34,390 --> 01:43:32,880 extraterrestrial phenomena 2588 01:43:36,790 --> 01:43:34,400 nothing that we saw that we could 2589 01:43:38,709 --> 01:43:36,800 explicitly equate to being et visiting 2590 01:43:41,109 --> 01:43:38,719 earth those were project blue books 2591 01:43:43,270 --> 01:43:41,119 findings they did not say there's 2592 01:43:44,870 --> 01:43:43,280 nothing worth studying they did not say 2593 01:43:46,149 --> 01:43:44,880 we didn't see things that we couldn't 2594 01:43:47,510 --> 01:43:46,159 identify 2595 01:43:49,030 --> 01:43:47,520 they said in fact there were hundreds of 2596 01:43:50,550 --> 01:43:49,040 reports that remained unidentified but 2597 01:43:51,990 --> 01:43:50,560 again you've got diligent researchers 2598 01:43:53,910 --> 01:43:52,000 like brad sparks and others who have 2599 01:43:55,750 --> 01:43:53,920 continued to go back over the logs and 2600 01:43:57,430 --> 01:43:55,760 you look at the actual quote-unquote 2601 01:43:59,990 --> 01:43:57,440 explanations that were offered for some 2602 01:44:01,750 --> 01:44:00,000 of those identified ufo cases they were 2603 01:44:04,390 --> 01:44:01,760 anything but identified 2604 01:44:06,870 --> 01:44:04,400 in fact there were probably as many as 2605 01:44:08,390 --> 01:44:06,880 possibly thousands of reports that were 2606 01:44:09,990 --> 01:44:08,400 not identified 2607 01:44:12,390 --> 01:44:10,000 from the blue book cata 2608 01:44:14,950 --> 01:44:12,400 catalog but that were identified by the 2609 01:44:16,550 --> 01:44:14,960 air force as identified for lack of any 2610 01:44:19,109 --> 01:44:16,560 better conclusions 2611 01:44:21,189 --> 01:44:19,119 you know they gave a conclusion or an 2612 01:44:23,430 --> 01:44:21,199 identification marker when in fact no 2613 01:44:25,109 --> 01:44:23,440 conclusion was ever actually made so 2614 01:44:26,870 --> 01:44:25,119 that's the reality of project blue book 2615 01:44:29,830 --> 01:44:26,880 and yet you know i still see people tout 2616 01:44:31,510 --> 01:44:29,840 this as come on guys you believers it's 2617 01:44:33,109 --> 01:44:31,520 not good enough for you that the air 2618 01:44:34,870 --> 01:44:33,119 force said they never found anything 2619 01:44:36,950 --> 01:44:34,880 that the condom committee said there's 2620 01:44:38,229 --> 01:44:36,960 nothing worth studying well if again go 2621 01:44:40,470 --> 01:44:38,239 back and reread what they said they 2622 01:44:42,709 --> 01:44:40,480 never said that they did find unknowns 2623 01:44:44,149 --> 01:44:42,719 and the condom committee even said maybe 2624 01:44:46,229 --> 01:44:44,159 this should be studied in the future but 2625 01:44:47,910 --> 01:44:46,239 again the problem is that guys 2626 01:44:50,390 --> 01:44:47,920 here we are a couple of decades into the 2627 01:44:52,870 --> 01:44:50,400 21st century and the air force is still 2628 01:44:54,310 --> 01:44:52,880 touting that old line so again i think 2629 01:44:56,149 --> 01:44:54,320 you know as a branch of the military 2630 01:44:58,950 --> 01:44:56,159 they're probably folk you know focusing 2631 01:45:00,550 --> 01:44:58,960 on their main mission priorities and 2632 01:45:03,910 --> 01:45:00,560 doing a fine job 2633 01:45:06,550 --> 01:45:03,920 but this as the odni report stated last 2634 01:45:08,149 --> 01:45:06,560 june is a challenge to national security 2635 01:45:11,030 --> 01:45:08,159 and more significantly with relevance to 2636 01:45:13,270 --> 01:45:11,040 the air force side of this it is also a 2637 01:45:15,189 --> 01:45:13,280 potential threat to aviators both 2638 01:45:16,629 --> 01:45:15,199 civilian and military that should be 2639 01:45:18,390 --> 01:45:16,639 something the air force should be paying 2640 01:45:21,350 --> 01:45:18,400 attention to well and there's been a 2641 01:45:23,430 --> 01:45:21,360 complete flip-flop from that point of 2642 01:45:25,669 --> 01:45:23,440 view to where we are today 2643 01:45:28,229 --> 01:45:25,679 in that everybody is concerned with the 2644 01:45:30,709 --> 01:45:28,239 scientific aspect of it trying to figure 2645 01:45:33,669 --> 01:45:30,719 out what is going on applying science 2646 01:45:36,790 --> 01:45:33,679 applying study and and certainly a 2647 01:45:39,350 --> 01:45:36,800 concern of something going on that there 2648 01:45:41,750 --> 01:45:39,360 may be a threat and there is something 2649 01:45:45,510 --> 01:45:41,760 to be concerned of completely the 2650 01:45:47,430 --> 01:45:45,520 opposite of uh the conclusions in 1969. 2651 01:45:49,189 --> 01:45:47,440 here take a screen grab 2652 01:45:52,310 --> 01:45:49,199 there it is right there take a screen 2653 01:45:54,470 --> 01:45:52,320 grab look really close there it is 2654 01:45:56,310 --> 01:45:54,480 that's what you want right there 2655 01:45:57,750 --> 01:45:56,320 i i couldn't actually make out what it 2656 01:45:59,270 --> 01:45:57,760 was but ladies and gentlemen at home he 2657 01:46:01,109 --> 01:45:59,280 was showing me his smart what appeared 2658 01:46:02,629 --> 01:46:01,119 to be a smartphone 2659 01:46:04,550 --> 01:46:02,639 there appeared to be letters on it but i 2660 01:46:07,109 --> 01:46:04,560 couldn't make out the letters that's 2661 01:46:10,830 --> 01:46:07,119 good that you didn't um and and here's 2662 01:46:16,390 --> 01:46:14,470 apparently only navy pilots 2663 01:46:19,350 --> 01:46:16,400 carry cell phones 2664 01:46:22,229 --> 01:46:19,360 right only navy pilots are shooting 2665 01:46:24,310 --> 01:46:22,239 stuff outside of the canopy only navy 2666 01:46:26,950 --> 01:46:24,320 pilots are seeing these anomalies in the 2667 01:46:29,750 --> 01:46:26,960 sky only navy pilots 2668 01:46:32,709 --> 01:46:29,760 uh are willing to talk about this only 2669 01:46:34,709 --> 01:46:32,719 navy pilots have technology only navy 2670 01:46:38,870 --> 01:46:34,719 pilots have the internet only navy 2671 01:46:41,510 --> 01:46:38,880 pilots know what a freaking video is 2672 01:46:44,229 --> 01:46:41,520 and and then this is pointed out uh this 2673 01:46:45,669 --> 01:46:44,239 is number five uh by chris i think it's 2674 01:46:48,629 --> 01:46:45,679 extraordinary 2675 01:46:49,669 --> 01:46:48,639 he says questions that need to be asked 2676 01:46:51,430 --> 01:46:49,679 he said 2677 01:46:54,149 --> 01:46:51,440 congress and the public should be 2678 01:46:57,510 --> 01:46:54,159 shocked that in the digital age when our 2679 01:47:00,470 --> 01:46:57,520 smartphones can answer most questions in 2680 01:47:02,629 --> 01:47:00,480 seconds the deputy secretary of defense 2681 01:47:05,030 --> 01:47:02,639 the dni and congress cannot get a 2682 01:47:07,430 --> 01:47:05,040 straight answers about uap 2683 01:47:10,790 --> 01:47:07,440 from the air force many months after 2684 01:47:12,470 --> 01:47:10,800 establishing a task force solely for 2685 01:47:14,310 --> 01:47:12,480 that purpose 2686 01:47:16,790 --> 01:47:14,320 and that goes right back to my point 2687 01:47:18,310 --> 01:47:16,800 only navy pilots carry 2688 01:47:19,270 --> 01:47:18,320 an iphone 2689 01:47:20,629 --> 01:47:19,280 well 2690 01:47:22,310 --> 01:47:20,639 or let's look at this a little 2691 01:47:23,510 --> 01:47:22,320 differently here's a really important 2692 01:47:25,030 --> 01:47:23,520 question 2693 01:47:27,830 --> 01:47:25,040 is it that they are the only ones that 2694 01:47:30,629 --> 01:47:27,840 carry the iphones or is it that 2695 01:47:32,629 --> 01:47:30,639 only navy pilots leak their photos that 2696 01:47:35,109 --> 01:47:32,639 they take of uap or that only navy 2697 01:47:37,830 --> 01:47:35,119 personnel leak videos obtained by navy 2698 01:47:39,669 --> 01:47:37,840 personnel the real question to me is 2699 01:47:41,910 --> 01:47:39,679 with the abundance of information that's 2700 01:47:43,510 --> 01:47:41,920 being collected by navy personnel do we 2701 01:47:45,510 --> 01:47:43,520 really expect that nobody in the air 2702 01:47:46,310 --> 01:47:45,520 force has done the same so my question 2703 01:47:48,390 --> 01:47:46,320 is 2704 01:47:50,310 --> 01:47:48,400 why have we had no leaks 2705 01:47:51,830 --> 01:47:50,320 why have we had no leaked information 2706 01:47:53,590 --> 01:47:51,840 like what we've seen comparable to what 2707 01:47:55,590 --> 01:47:53,600 we've seen from the navy coming from the 2708 01:47:57,510 --> 01:47:55,600 air force now that begs a few 2709 01:48:00,550 --> 01:47:57,520 interesting questions 2710 01:48:02,709 --> 01:48:00,560 does the air force control does it have 2711 01:48:04,229 --> 01:48:02,719 a system of managing 2712 01:48:05,510 --> 01:48:04,239 their 2713 01:48:07,750 --> 01:48:05,520 yes 2714 01:48:09,109 --> 01:48:07,760 both their personnel and the information 2715 01:48:11,030 --> 01:48:09,119 that they may be collecting is that 2716 01:48:12,709 --> 01:48:11,040 managed differently more strictly 2717 01:48:13,750 --> 01:48:12,719 perhaps by the air force than it is by 2718 01:48:16,070 --> 01:48:13,760 the navy 2719 01:48:19,510 --> 01:48:16,080 and therein lies another issue i mean 2720 01:48:21,990 --> 01:48:19,520 that in itself a restrictive culture 2721 01:48:23,669 --> 01:48:22,000 of you know and policy within a military 2722 01:48:26,070 --> 01:48:23,679 branch and i'm only speculating frankly 2723 01:48:27,990 --> 01:48:26,080 but again if that is in existence such 2724 01:48:29,510 --> 01:48:28,000 that we aren't able to see the kind of 2725 01:48:30,550 --> 01:48:29,520 data that their personnel may be 2726 01:48:31,910 --> 01:48:30,560 collecting but which we've seen 2727 01:48:34,310 --> 01:48:31,920 abundance of from the navy that in 2728 01:48:36,470 --> 01:48:34,320 itself is a problem it goes right back 2729 01:48:39,590 --> 01:48:36,480 to the stiff arm 2730 01:48:41,430 --> 01:48:39,600 exactly uh you know and and going back 2731 01:48:42,870 --> 01:48:41,440 in fact let's go even further back here 2732 01:48:44,950 --> 01:48:42,880 because as i mentioned i wanted when we 2733 01:48:47,350 --> 01:48:44,960 had time we weren't coming up on a break 2734 01:48:48,790 --> 01:48:47,360 to go back and and look uh in a little 2735 01:48:51,189 --> 01:48:48,800 finer detail at what was happening in 2736 01:48:53,510 --> 01:48:51,199 the 1960s you know and and what really 2737 01:48:55,750 --> 01:48:53,520 kind of led to in my opinion 2738 01:48:57,189 --> 01:48:55,760 not the air force getting out of the ufo 2739 01:48:59,590 --> 01:48:57,199 game and then people leaving them alone 2740 01:49:01,510 --> 01:48:59,600 no their intent all along i believe was 2741 01:49:03,669 --> 01:49:01,520 they wanted to be left alone 2742 01:49:05,750 --> 01:49:03,679 you know when you have 2743 01:49:07,669 --> 01:49:05,760 multiple different studies you know we 2744 01:49:09,270 --> 01:49:07,679 go all the way back to the late 1940s 2745 01:49:11,750 --> 01:49:09,280 project sign 2746 01:49:13,910 --> 01:49:11,760 and and again this storied event that 2747 01:49:16,149 --> 01:49:13,920 occurred that ufologists to this day 2748 01:49:18,310 --> 01:49:16,159 including myself still talk about 2749 01:49:19,669 --> 01:49:18,320 there was purportedly an estimate that 2750 01:49:21,350 --> 01:49:19,679 was produced this estimate of the 2751 01:49:23,510 --> 01:49:21,360 situation 2752 01:49:25,270 --> 01:49:23,520 and it seemed to i mean it wasn't saying 2753 01:49:26,790 --> 01:49:25,280 ufos whatever these things well they 2754 01:49:28,790 --> 01:49:26,800 weren't called ufos yet at that point 2755 01:49:31,030 --> 01:49:28,800 really the popular colloquial i guess 2756 01:49:32,950 --> 01:49:31,040 term was flying saucer and that had been 2757 01:49:35,430 --> 01:49:32,960 derived primarily from the press 2758 01:49:37,350 --> 01:49:35,440 reporting on kenneth arnold's siding 2759 01:49:39,189 --> 01:49:37,360 from the summer of 47. 2760 01:49:40,629 --> 01:49:39,199 sign you know they're looking at this 2761 01:49:42,790 --> 01:49:40,639 and they're saying we're trying to 2762 01:49:45,109 --> 01:49:42,800 assess all the different things 2763 01:49:46,470 --> 01:49:45,119 this phenomenon might represent 2764 01:49:48,229 --> 01:49:46,480 we don't know of any kind of soviet 2765 01:49:50,310 --> 01:49:48,239 technology we don't know any of any kind 2766 01:49:51,990 --> 01:49:50,320 of you know captured german technology 2767 01:49:53,510 --> 01:49:52,000 we have no intelligence that indicates 2768 01:49:55,990 --> 01:49:53,520 that this is a u.s technology and that 2769 01:49:58,470 --> 01:49:56,000 these are our own experimental craft 2770 01:50:00,070 --> 01:49:58,480 therefore the only other possibilities 2771 01:50:02,070 --> 01:50:00,080 and they probably ran down the list as 2772 01:50:03,589 --> 01:50:02,080 many would today there maybe are some 2773 01:50:05,030 --> 01:50:03,599 natural phenomena that are a little 2774 01:50:07,109 --> 01:50:05,040 understood with our current 2775 01:50:08,229 --> 01:50:07,119 understanding in terms of science and in 2776 01:50:09,750 --> 01:50:08,239 the universe 2777 01:50:11,430 --> 01:50:09,760 but then again of course in the 2778 01:50:12,470 --> 01:50:11,440 instances where some of these things 2779 01:50:14,149 --> 01:50:12,480 notably 2780 01:50:15,830 --> 01:50:14,159 that so-called childs and witted 2781 01:50:17,830 --> 01:50:15,840 encounter this was a famous encounter 2782 01:50:19,589 --> 01:50:17,840 where it was i believe a dc-10 was 2783 01:50:22,310 --> 01:50:19,599 flying along over 2784 01:50:23,669 --> 01:50:22,320 probably roughly montgomery alabama they 2785 01:50:25,189 --> 01:50:23,679 observe what looks like a great big 2786 01:50:27,430 --> 01:50:25,199 rocket ship 2787 01:50:29,589 --> 01:50:27,440 fly out of a cloud pass in front of them 2788 01:50:32,229 --> 01:50:29,599 go into another uh cloud 2789 01:50:33,990 --> 01:50:32,239 this thing has got rows of windows 2790 01:50:35,510 --> 01:50:34,000 portholes down the side 2791 01:50:36,790 --> 01:50:35,520 they were very startled by it and in 2792 01:50:38,070 --> 01:50:36,800 fact although most of the passengers 2793 01:50:39,830 --> 01:50:38,080 would have been asleep at this time it 2794 01:50:41,510 --> 01:50:39,840 was in the early morning one of them did 2795 01:50:42,950 --> 01:50:41,520 see a flash of light 2796 01:50:45,189 --> 01:50:42,960 and so they certainly were aware 2797 01:50:47,189 --> 01:50:45,199 something was outside the window 2798 01:50:48,629 --> 01:50:47,199 there was also ground corroboration from 2799 01:50:50,070 --> 01:50:48,639 another witness that was actually based 2800 01:50:52,229 --> 01:50:50,080 on the ground and this had been very 2801 01:50:53,750 --> 01:50:52,239 instrumental in those early assessments 2802 01:50:56,470 --> 01:50:53,760 the estimate of the situation said 2803 01:50:58,550 --> 01:50:56,480 essentially based on sightings like that 2804 01:51:00,950 --> 01:50:58,560 we don't rule out the possibility that 2805 01:51:02,790 --> 01:51:00,960 these things might be extraterrestrial 2806 01:51:04,550 --> 01:51:02,800 and of course top brass hated that they 2807 01:51:06,470 --> 01:51:04,560 said you know leadership in the air 2808 01:51:08,470 --> 01:51:06,480 force said no no we're not going to 2809 01:51:11,350 --> 01:51:08,480 accept that and in fact they ordered all 2810 01:51:14,149 --> 01:51:11,360 copies of this estimate to be destroyed 2811 01:51:15,990 --> 01:51:14,159 and therefore sign was followed its 2812 01:51:19,510 --> 01:51:16,000 successor was grudge and grudge took a 2813 01:51:21,589 --> 01:51:19,520 much more decidedly negative attitude 2814 01:51:23,270 --> 01:51:21,599 toward the study of uap 2815 01:51:24,790 --> 01:51:23,280 probably thinking and we're going to be 2816 01:51:26,229 --> 01:51:24,800 able to you know put the nail in the 2817 01:51:29,510 --> 01:51:26,239 coffin on this so to speak but when that 2818 01:51:32,390 --> 01:51:29,520 didn't happen that transmogrifies into 2819 01:51:34,470 --> 01:51:32,400 uh project blue book by 1952 2820 01:51:36,470 --> 01:51:34,480 and it runs for nearly two decades now 2821 01:51:39,189 --> 01:51:36,480 you got to take into consideration by 2822 01:51:41,510 --> 01:51:39,199 the time let's say 1958 rolls around the 2823 01:51:43,030 --> 01:51:41,520 air force had already been in the ufo 2824 01:51:44,470 --> 01:51:43,040 game for a decade 2825 01:51:46,070 --> 01:51:44,480 how much did they have what did they 2826 01:51:49,030 --> 01:51:46,080 really have to show for it they didn't 2827 01:51:49,709 --> 01:51:49,040 have hardly anything and so 2828 01:51:52,709 --> 01:51:49,719 by 2829 01:51:54,310 --> 01:51:52,719 1958 you know the air force was already 2830 01:51:55,750 --> 01:51:54,320 and i think we can offer some evidence 2831 01:51:56,950 --> 01:51:55,760 i've actually supplied you with an audio 2832 01:51:58,070 --> 01:51:56,960 sound butt that i'd like to reference 2833 01:52:00,229 --> 01:51:58,080 here 2834 01:52:02,870 --> 01:52:00,239 they were actively trying to convey to 2835 01:52:04,870 --> 01:52:02,880 the public look when we investigate ufos 2836 01:52:07,109 --> 01:52:04,880 we always take into consideration the 2837 01:52:08,550 --> 01:52:07,119 possibility that there are unknowns 2838 01:52:10,950 --> 01:52:08,560 but essentially we want you to know that 2839 01:52:13,430 --> 01:52:10,960 nine times out of ten we can identify 2840 01:52:16,149 --> 01:52:13,440 these things great example january 20th 2841 01:52:19,189 --> 01:52:16,159 1958 the armstrong circle theaters ufo 2842 01:52:20,950 --> 01:52:19,199 enigma of the skies airs on television 2843 01:52:23,430 --> 01:52:20,960 among the guests uh had been major 2844 01:52:25,910 --> 01:52:23,440 donald e kehoe he'd been actually the 2845 01:52:27,270 --> 01:52:25,920 the director of the nycap organization 2846 01:52:29,430 --> 01:52:27,280 at the time national investigations 2847 01:52:31,669 --> 01:52:29,440 committee on aerial phenomena 2848 01:52:33,990 --> 01:52:31,679 we also had harvard astronomer dr donald 2849 01:52:36,470 --> 01:52:34,000 menzel a noted skeptic 2850 01:52:38,629 --> 01:52:36,480 and colonel spencer whedon 2851 01:52:41,109 --> 01:52:38,639 uh giving the u.s air force's position 2852 01:52:42,390 --> 01:52:41,119 on unidentified flying objects now to 2853 01:52:44,070 --> 01:52:42,400 his credit 2854 01:52:46,310 --> 01:52:44,080 whedon 2855 01:52:47,350 --> 01:52:46,320 was open to the possibility and said so 2856 01:52:49,030 --> 01:52:47,360 at the end that you know yeah the air 2857 01:52:50,470 --> 01:52:49,040 force does from time to time detect 2858 01:52:54,470 --> 01:52:50,480 unknowns 2859 01:52:56,470 --> 01:52:54,480 anything 2860 01:52:58,149 --> 01:52:56,480 exotic or extraordinary 2861 01:52:59,910 --> 01:52:58,159 they are simply more conventional 2862 01:53:01,350 --> 01:52:59,920 phenomena that we didn't have enough 2863 01:53:03,270 --> 01:53:01,360 information 2864 01:53:05,189 --> 01:53:03,280 to make determinations about we are 2865 01:53:06,950 --> 01:53:05,199 convinced that we could explain all the 2866 01:53:08,790 --> 01:53:06,960 ufo reports if we had enough data but in 2867 01:53:10,950 --> 01:53:08,800 some cases we simply don't so the public 2868 01:53:12,629 --> 01:53:10,960 needs to understand the unidentified 2869 01:53:14,550 --> 01:53:12,639 flying objects are merely that 2870 01:53:16,070 --> 01:53:14,560 unidentified but with more data we'd be 2871 01:53:18,390 --> 01:53:16,080 able to explain them all 2872 01:53:20,229 --> 01:53:18,400 so that was the air force opinion the 2873 01:53:21,589 --> 01:53:20,239 problem with this show and again a lot 2874 01:53:23,270 --> 01:53:21,599 of people have written about this anyone 2875 01:53:25,669 --> 01:53:23,280 who's never read the first installment 2876 01:53:26,470 --> 01:53:25,679 of dolan's ufos in the national security 2877 01:53:29,109 --> 01:53:26,480 state 2878 01:53:31,189 --> 01:53:29,119 dolan goes in depth about this in his 2879 01:53:32,790 --> 01:53:31,199 book and some of the politics that had 2880 01:53:35,109 --> 01:53:32,800 been going on behind the airing of this 2881 01:53:37,430 --> 01:53:35,119 program in 1958 2882 01:53:39,109 --> 01:53:37,440 the participants had had to submit in 2883 01:53:40,870 --> 01:53:39,119 advance 2884 01:53:42,550 --> 01:53:40,880 their scripts it was very highly 2885 01:53:44,390 --> 01:53:42,560 scripted when you listen to it you can 2886 01:53:47,750 --> 01:53:44,400 hear it was very highly scripted whedon 2887 01:53:50,310 --> 01:53:47,760 is you know talking like this and well 2888 01:53:53,270 --> 01:53:50,320 when we investigate ufos i mean it's 2889 01:53:55,589 --> 01:53:53,280 it's really like just i mean it's 2890 01:53:57,830 --> 01:53:55,599 it's theater it's theater it's about to 2891 01:53:59,750 --> 01:53:57,840 say it's so beyond theatrical that it's 2892 01:54:01,589 --> 01:53:59,760 just laughable but yeah theater is the 2893 01:54:02,870 --> 01:54:01,599 word that came to mind for me too 2894 01:54:05,830 --> 01:54:02,880 now 2895 01:54:09,430 --> 01:54:05,840 well let me let me jump in uh 2896 01:54:11,750 --> 01:54:09,440 they rehearsed this yes they did they 2897 01:54:13,030 --> 01:54:11,760 had all of the 2898 01:54:17,109 --> 01:54:13,040 uh 2899 01:54:18,229 --> 01:54:17,119 i'm gonna use the word sensor sensorist 2900 01:54:21,189 --> 01:54:18,239 right so 2901 01:54:23,910 --> 01:54:21,199 everything was closely monitored um it 2902 01:54:27,189 --> 01:54:23,920 was rehearsed the scripts were there 2903 01:54:31,750 --> 01:54:27,199 things were prepared and and that was it 2904 01:54:33,990 --> 01:54:31,760 there was no going off script unless 2905 01:54:37,270 --> 01:54:34,000 your name is donald kehoe 2906 01:54:39,589 --> 01:54:37,280 oh well yes now let me also add this 2907 01:54:40,629 --> 01:54:39,599 although kehoe was allowed to submit his 2908 01:54:42,629 --> 01:54:40,639 script 2909 01:54:44,149 --> 01:54:42,639 they would also say well you know but in 2910 01:54:46,070 --> 01:54:44,159 the interest of time donald we got to 2911 01:54:47,350 --> 01:54:46,080 take out this so we got to take out this 2912 01:54:48,629 --> 01:54:47,360 and then we're eliminating a lot of the 2913 01:54:50,229 --> 01:54:48,639 good stuff and saying we don't we don't 2914 01:54:52,310 --> 01:54:50,239 have time for this and so what did kehoe 2915 01:54:53,270 --> 01:54:52,320 do he didn't revolt he said look you 2916 01:54:55,109 --> 01:54:53,280 know 2917 01:54:56,709 --> 01:54:55,119 six to one half a dozen another i don't 2918 01:54:58,629 --> 01:54:56,719 go on the show and i get no publicity 2919 01:55:00,229 --> 01:54:58,639 for an icap and raising awareness about

have butchered 2923 01:55:08,310 --> 01:55:06,560 and i have an opportunity 2924 01:55:10,310 --> 01:55:08,320 but yeah he went a little further so 2925 01:55:12,390 --> 01:55:10,320 kehoe goes on the air that night 2926 01:55:14,149 --> 01:55:12,400 whedon has already spent you know 10 2927 01:55:15,990 --> 01:55:14,159 minutes talking about how the air force 2928 01:55:18,470 --> 01:55:16,000 can basically identify almost everything 2929 01:55:20,390 --> 01:55:18,480 as a balloon or a bull light or whatever 2930 01:55:22,629 --> 01:55:20,400 keo comes on he sticks to the script and 2931 01:55:25,109 --> 01:55:22,639 in the final segment in the final 2932 01:55:26,470 --> 01:55:25,119 seconds of that segment he says and now 2933 01:55:28,629 --> 01:55:26,480 i'm going to tell the american public 2934 01:55:31,510 --> 01:55:28,639 something you've never heard we have 2935 01:55:34,709 --> 01:55:31,520 that audio i want you to play this audio 2936 01:55:36,070 --> 01:55:34,719

pretty good setup let's go 2940 01:55:47,270 --> 01:55:45,520 ahead and roll this here it goes 2941 01:55:48,709 --> 01:55:47,280 and now mr edwards i would like to make 2942 01:55:50,149 --> 01:55:48,719 a disclosure 2943 01:55:51,830 --> 01:55:50,159 which something which has never been 2944 01:55:53,750 --> 01:55:51,840 revealed to the public 2945 01:55:55,990 --> 01:55:53,760 for the last six months our committee 2946 01:55:58,470 --> 01:55:56,000 has been working with a senate committee 2947 01:56:00,390 --> 01:55:58,480 which is investigating official secrecy 2948 01:56:02,950 --> 01:56:00,400 on ufos 2949 01:56:05,109 --> 01:56:02,960 if the hearings are held open hearings i 2950 01:56:09,030 --> 01:56:05,119 feel it will prove beyond doubt that the 2951 01:56:09,040 --> 01:56:12,390 in order 2952 01:56:19,270 --> 01:56:15,430 that's it all 2953 01:56:23,270 --> 01:56:21,430 thank you major kehoe one of the most 2954 01:56:24,390 --> 01:56:23,280 eminent men of science who has taken the 2955 01:56:26,550 --> 01:56:24,400 decision 2956 01:56:29,990 --> 01:56:26,560 that that's what happens 2957 01:56:31,109 --> 01:56:30,000 and uh now here's the thing this was a 2958 01:56:32,709 --> 01:56:31,119 live 2959 01:56:36,229 --> 01:56:32,719 broadcast 2960 01:56:39,830 --> 01:56:36,239 and uh the guy for cbs his name was 2961 01:56:45,669 --> 01:56:43,510 oh

was on uh the 2965 01:56:56,950 --> 01:56:53,040 long john neville show 2966 01:56:59,189 --> 01:56:56,960 and comes on in and and and speaks 2967 01:57:02,629 --> 01:56:59,199 and what uh 2968 01:57:06,629 --> 01:57:02,639 uh what happens there is they they name 2969 01:57:09,589 --> 01:57:06,639 carl by uh by name they call him out 2970 01:57:11,589 --> 01:57:09,599 and uh long john neville says 2971 01:57:14,870 --> 01:57:11,599 that it's a 2972 01:57:18,149 --> 01:57:14,880 a 40-second fade that he does and he 2973 01:57:18,950 --> 01:57:18,159 slowly pulls it down they made a point 2974 01:57:22,709 --> 01:57:18,960 to 2975 01:57:25,189 --> 01:57:22,719 uh bring out everything the way that cbs 2976 01:57:27,910 --> 01:57:25,199 approached this and effectively 2977 01:57:29,750 --> 01:57:27,920 censored kehoe and enrolled credits on 2978 01:57:31,510 --> 01:57:29,760 the screen yeah indeed what you're 2979 01:57:32,950 --> 01:57:31,520 hearing again for everybody at home and 2980 01:57:34,790 --> 01:57:32,960 i want to point out that it seems like 2981 01:57:36,870 --> 01:57:34,800 it was probably edited to bring in 2982 01:57:38,790 --> 01:57:36,880 menzel a little quick more quickly after 2983 01:57:40,870 --> 01:57:38,800 that for the audio version that we heard 2984 01:57:43,669 --> 01:57:40,880 and again the entire program can be 2985 01:57:45,910 --> 01:57:43,679 heard via the faded discs catalog 2986 01:57:48,629 --> 01:57:45,920 available on archive.org wendy connors 2987 01:57:51,430 --> 01:57:48,639 did incredible archival work providing 2988 01:57:53,109 --> 01:57:51,440 basically a history of ufology and audio 2989 01:57:54,950 --> 01:57:53,119 and that's one of the files but yeah 2990 01:57:57,109 --> 01:57:54,960 what you heard was 2991 01:57:59,270 --> 01:57:57,119 kiho being potted down they dropped his 2992 01:58:01,350 --> 01:57:59,280 microphone when he went off the script 2993 01:58:02,950 --> 01:58:01,360 now what's he talking about when they 2994 01:58:05,510 --> 01:58:02,960 mute his microphone effectively there 2995 01:58:06,790 --> 01:58:05,520 was still like an off set microphone 2996 01:58:08,390 --> 01:58:06,800 there that you could still hear a little 2997 01:58:10,550 --> 01:58:08,400 of what he was talking and he was still 2998 01:58:12,310 --> 01:58:10,560 on camera they brought his microphone 2999 01:58:13,750 --> 01:58:12,320 down what was he talking about how he 3000 01:58:14,870 --> 01:58:13,760 and nycap had been working with the 3001 01:58:16,709 --> 01:58:14,880 senate group 3002 01:58:18,629 --> 01:58:16,719 about the issue of government secrecy in 3003 01:58:21,030 --> 01:58:18,639 relation to ufos what happens they turn 3004 01:58:23,830 --> 01:58:21,040 his mic off big coincidence right we had 3005 01:58:26,709 --> 01:58:23,840 a technical issue thank you mr kehoe 3006 01:58:28,229 --> 01:58:26,719 no no this obviously 3007 01:58:29,750 --> 01:58:28,239 had been planned 3008 01:58:30,870 --> 01:58:29,760 this is entirely what they were trying 3009 01:58:33,510 --> 01:58:30,880 to do they were trying to steer the 3010 01:58:35,189 --> 01:58:33,520 narrative everybody had to submit their 3011 01:58:36,790 --> 01:58:35,199 you know their their script 3012 01:58:38,870 --> 01:58:36,800 but it had to be approved kehoe 3013 01:58:40,790 --> 01:58:38,880 submitted his but they butchered it he 3014 01:58:41,910 --> 01:58:40,800 went on air anyway and then he went off 3015 01:58:43,109 --> 01:58:41,920 the narrative and what did they do they 3016 01:58:44,790 --> 01:58:43,119 dropped his microphone they'd been 3017 01:58:46,790 --> 01:58:44,800 prepared for the possibility that he 3018 01:58:48,790 --> 01:58:46,800 would do that and they had taken every 3019 01:58:50,950 --> 01:58:48,800 precaution knowing that their 3020 01:58:52,790 --> 01:58:50,960 objective essentially was to control the 3021 01:58:54,950 --> 01:58:52,800 narrative so what was the narrative what 3022 01:58:56,709 --> 01:58:54,960 was being controlled well if you listen 3023 01:58:58,790 --> 01:58:56,719 to that entire program as i pointed out 3024 01:59:00,149 --> 01:58:58,800 based on colonel whedon's appearance it 3025 01:59:02,390 --> 01:59:00,159 was essentially the air force saying 3026 01:59:04,149 --> 01:59:02,400 look we've got a handle on ufos 3027 01:59:07,189 --> 01:59:04,159 they can all essentially be explained 3028 01:59:09,189 --> 01:59:07,199 even the ones that we call unidentified 3029 01:59:10,790 --> 01:59:09,199 and there are crackpots and crazies who 3030 01:59:12,950 --> 01:59:10,800 claim that they've had these experiences 3031 01:59:14,550 --> 01:59:12,960 that often muddy the waters and even at 3032 01:59:16,550 --> 01:59:14,560 one point said that those of you who are 3033 01:59:18,310 --> 01:59:16,560 hoaxers that may be against the law 3034 01:59:20,950 --> 01:59:18,320 think about how much money is wasted by 3035 01:59:22,870 --> 01:59:20,960 the air force in trying to track down 3036 01:59:24,790 --> 01:59:22,880 what ends up almost inevitably being 3037 01:59:26,709 --> 01:59:24,800 hoaxes you know when we have a quote 3038 01:59:28,149 --> 01:59:26,719 unquote good ufo reports these cranks 3039 01:59:30,149 --> 01:59:28,159 and weirdos you know hoaxing these 3040 01:59:31,030 --> 01:59:30,159 things that should be against the law 3041 01:59:32,390 --> 01:59:31,040 well 3042 01:59:34,709 --> 01:59:32,400 yeah they were basically trying to 3043 01:59:36,070 --> 01:59:34,719 really control

3203 02:06:49,830 --> 02:06:47,119 neville wanted to blame cbs 3204 02:06:51,270 --> 02:06:49,840 right for the censorship and that's what 3205 02:06:52,950 --> 02:06:51,280 they were calling it by the way they 3206 02:06:55,030 --> 02:06:52,960 weren't they weren't playing around they 3207 02:06:58,790 --> 02:06:55,040 were saying that this was censorship 3208 02:07:01,270 --> 02:06:58,800 and neville's wanting to blame cbs 3209 02:07:04,149 --> 02:07:01,280 you know the live broadcast and kehoe 3210 02:07:05,990 --> 02:07:04,159 said no it wasn't cbs man it was the air 3211 02:07:08,470 --> 02:07:06,000 force it was the air force that was 3212 02:07:10,709 --> 02:07:08,480 doing the censoring it was the air force 3213 02:07:12,870 --> 02:07:10,719 that was there live 3214 02:07:15,350 --> 02:07:12,880 and uh i think that needs to be brought 3215 02:07:16,550 --> 02:07:15,360 out uh that that was uh donald's 3216 02:07:19,589 --> 02:07:16,560 position 3217 02:07:21,589 --> 02:07:19,599 don't blame cbs blame the air force yeah 3218 02:07:23,350 --> 02:07:21,599 and again looking at this historically 3219 02:07:25,990 --> 02:07:23,360 we can ask 3220 02:07:27,669 --> 02:07:26,000 well why did cbs want to control that 3221 02:07:29,350 --> 02:07:27,679 narrative so badly i mean if there 3222 02:07:31,589 --> 02:07:29,360 hadn't been and again i don't think 3223 02:07:33,430 --> 02:07:31,599 that's an illogical or a conspiratorial 3224 02:07:35,350 --> 02:07:33,440 assertion jimmy 3225 02:07:37,510 --> 02:07:35,360 obviously they were 3226 02:07:39,189 --> 02:07:37,520 presenting very carefully so that it 3227 02:07:40,950 --> 02:07:39,199 seemed like they were balanced but i 3228 02:07:43,189 --> 02:07:40,960 mean it's the air force the air force 3229 02:07:44,629 --> 02:07:43,199 first with you know colonel whedon 3230 02:07:47,350 --> 02:07:44,639 then they bring in kehoe but then they 3231 02:07:49,669 --> 02:07:47,360 go to men's alas so it's skeptic 3232 02:07:51,830 --> 02:07:49,679 and then it's you know the pro-ufo guy 3233 02:07:54,390 --> 02:07:51,840 and then the arch skeptic at the time 3234 02:07:57,189 --> 02:07:54,400 which was you know manziel 3235 02:07:59,270 --> 02:07:57,199 it seems to me that it was very obvious 3236 02:08:00,709 --> 02:07:59,280 what cbs was doing they were presenting 3237 02:08:03,109 --> 02:08:00,719 this narrative 3238 02:08:05,510 --> 02:08:03,119 was 3239 02:08:07,510 --> 02:08:05,520 very much in line with the air forces 3240 02:08:10,229 --> 02:08:07,520 not just positions but the positions 3241 02:08:12,229 --> 02:08:10,239 that they wanted the public to see right 3242 02:08:13,589 --> 02:08:12,239 and it was a control of information in 3243 02:08:15,109 --> 02:08:13,599 certain ways and i think that there are 3244 02:08:17,430 --> 02:08:15,119 a number of reasons why that might have 3245 02:08:18,950 --> 02:08:17,440 been the case the obvious one being look 3246 02:08:21,350 --> 02:08:18,960 the air force 3247 02:08:24,229 --> 02:08:21,360 did not want the american people to 3248 02:08:26,229 --> 02:08:24,239 believe that they did not have a grip on 3249 02:08:27,430 --> 02:08:26,239 this pro you know this problem uh 3250 02:08:30,149 --> 02:08:27,440 further 3251 02:08:31,669 --> 02:08:30,159 if the if the public believed that they 3252 02:08:33,510 --> 02:08:31,679 probably were concerned and in fact you 3253 02:08:36,149 --> 02:08:33,520 know intelligence reports uh you know 3254 02:08:38,149 --> 02:08:36,159 later released through the foyer process 3255 02:08:40,069 --> 02:08:38,159 detailed the fact that there had been 3256 02:08:43,669 --> 02:08:40,079 legitimate concerns about the 1950s that 3257 02:08:47,270 --> 02:08:43,679 the soviets might try to use 3258 02:08:49,270 --> 02:08:47,280 americans concern over ufos as a means 3259 02:08:51,270 --> 02:08:49,280 of clogging communications channels and 3260 02:08:53,109 --> 02:08:51,280 things like this so again indirect 3261 02:08:55,189 --> 02:08:53,119 though that national security threat was 3262 02:08:57,189 --> 02:08:55,199 from uap or ufos as they were called 3263 02:08:58,149 --> 02:08:57,199 back then i personally still like ufos 3264 02:08:59,109 --> 02:08:58,159 you know 3265 02:09:01,109 --> 02:08:59,119 but 3266 02:09:01,830 --> 02:09:01,119 that had been a concern and they wanted 3267 02:09:04,950 --> 02:09:01,840 to 3268 02:09:07,350 --> 02:09:04,960 they could 3269 02:09:09,669 --> 02:09:07,360 and so one way of of doing that is 3270 02:09:12,069 --> 02:09:09,679 trying to assure the american public 3271 02:09:14,870 --> 02:09:12,079 through a controlled communication 3272 02:09:17,189 --> 02:09:14,880 medium on you know national television 3273 02:09:19,589 --> 02:09:17,199 with a pro ufo guy sitting there hey 3274 02:09:21,990 --> 02:09:19,599 we've got a handle on this 3275 02:09:22,790 --> 02:09:22,000 and again if it's cbs that's controlling 3276 02:09:24,870 --> 02:09:22,800 it 3277 02:09:26,950 --> 02:09:24,880 you know why what are they doing how do 3278 02:09:28,709 --> 02:09:26,960 they benefit from being less sensational 3279 02:09:30,149 --> 02:09:28,719 from silencing the guy who's making the 3280 02:09:31,750 --> 02:09:30,159 extraordinary claims who's going to 3281 02:09:34,149 --> 02:09:31,760 shoot their ratings through the roof 3282 02:09:35,750 --> 02:09:34,159 that makes no sense so i'm with kehoe on 3283 02:09:37,109 --> 02:09:35,760 this one i don't think it was cbs i 3284 02:09:38,629 --> 02:09:37,119 definitely think it had been the air 3285 02:09:41,350 --> 02:09:38,639 force and there was a very clear reason 3286 02:09:43,109 --> 02:09:41,360 why several in fact that they would have 3287 02:09:44,470 --> 02:09:43,119 wanted to oversee and manage the way 3288 02:09:45,350 --> 02:09:44,480 that narrative was presented by the way 3289 02:09:47,189 --> 02:09:45,360 jimmy 3290 02:09:49,589 --> 02:09:47,199 now people in the chat had been saying 3291 02:09:51,669 --> 02:09:49,599 why hadn't a lip reader just sat there 3292 02:09:53,109 --> 02:09:51,679 and read what key ho said when the mic 3293 02:09:54,470 --> 02:09:53,119 was turned off but you read the quote 3294 02:09:56,870 --> 02:09:54,480 before the break do you still have that 3295 02:10:00,950 --> 02:09:56,880 and could you read it again uh 3296 02:10:03,589 --> 02:10:00,960 no i don't have it uh hold on let me uh 3297 02:10:05,510 --> 02:10:03,599 oh jeez uh 3298 02:10:07,910 --> 02:10:05,520 don't worry we can summarize it i have 3299 02:10:09,189 --> 02:10:07,920 it i have man come on man 3300 02:10:11,990 --> 02:10:09,199 i'm pro 3301 02:10:13,350 --> 02:10:12,000 i can do this i can i can get about okay 3302 02:10:15,910 --> 02:10:13,360 here's the quote 3303 02:10:18,709 --> 02:10:15,920 uh u.s congressional committee was 3304 02:10:21,189 --> 02:10:18,719 evaluating evidence that will absolutely 3305 02:10:24,310 --> 02:10:21,199 prove that ufos are machines under 3306 02:10:26,069 --> 02:10:24,320 intelligent control 3307 02:10:27,750 --> 02:10:26,079 yeah so that's what he said when the mic 3308 02:10:29,510 --> 02:10:27,760 was turned down let me be clear that's 3309 02:10:30,550 --> 02:10:29,520 you know so we do know what was said and 3310 02:10:32,069 --> 02:10:30,560 in fact 3311 02:10:33,669 --> 02:10:32,079 you can hear parts of it in the audio 3312 02:10:35,270 --> 02:10:33,679 there i haven't actually analyzed or 3313 02:10:37,030 --> 02:10:35,280 enhanced that audio myself but i'm 3314 02:10:38,709 --> 02:10:37,040 betting you could you could bring out 3315 02:10:40,550 --> 02:10:38,719 some of that and no doubt people have 3316 02:10:43,030 --> 02:10:40,560 but we know what he said and that's what 3317 02:10:44,229 --> 02:10:43,040 was being said uh you know and again i 3318 02:10:45,510 --> 02:10:44,239 think that that's an important point by 3319 02:10:46,709 --> 02:10:45,520 the way if we have time toward the end i 3320 02:10:48,149 --> 02:10:46,719 know we're talking about chris mellon's 3321 02:10:50,069 --> 02:10:48,159 article i'm also seeing people in the 3322 02:10:51,910 --> 02:10:50,079 chat mentioning john keel and i got to 3323 02:10:53,830 --> 02:10:51,920 tell you i'm i'm a huge fan of john keel 3324 02:10:56,149 --> 02:10:53,840 even when i didn't agree with her 3325 02:10:57,750 --> 02:10:56,159 what chat are you in there's so many 3326 02:10:59,510 --> 02:10:57,760 chats which one 3327 02:11:01,270 --> 02:10:59,520 i was looking at the one on youtube oh 3328 02:11:03,030 --> 02:11:01,280 okay yeah the stream over there on 3329 02:11:05,030 --> 02:11:03,040 youtube but again you know 3330 02:11:06,790 --> 02:11:05,040 john keel might as well bring this 3331 02:11:08,390 --> 02:11:06,800 aspect of his research up too at this 3332 02:11:09,510 --> 02:11:08,400 point because while we're talking about 3333 02:11:11,910 --> 02:11:09,520 the history 3334 02:11:13,589 --> 02:11:11,920 and which to me and this isn't this is 3335 02:11:15,589 --> 02:11:13,599 key folks 3336 02:11:16,790 --> 02:11:15,599 if you look back to the 1960s and the 3337 02:11:18,229 --> 02:11:16,800 and the kind of actually even earlier 3338 02:11:20,069 --> 02:11:18,239 than that as we heard in that audio that 3339 02:11:22,390 --> 02:11:20,079 was 1958 3340 02:11:24,149 --> 02:11:22,400 if you look at the air force's behavior 3341 02:11:26,069 --> 02:11:24,159 and their attempts at trying to control 3342 02:11:27,830 --> 02:11:26,079 the narrative going that far back that's 3343 02:11:30,470 --> 02:11:27,840 why we play this audio that's why i 3344 02:11:32,229 --> 02:11:30,480 brought that to the discussion tonight 3345 02:11:34,229 --> 02:11:32,239 you need to understand the history of 3346 02:11:35,750 --> 02:11:34,239 the air force's activity in relation to 3347 02:11:36,950 --> 02:11:35,760 this issue they're trying to get a 3348 02:11:39,270 --> 02:11:36,960 handle on it 3349 02:11:41,350 --> 02:11:39,280 essentially not being able to 3350 02:11:43,350 --> 02:11:41,360 but trying to present the facade to the 3351 02:11:45,350 --> 02:11:43,360 public that they did when in fact they 3352 02:11:47,510 --> 02:11:45,360 didn't and controlling the narrative and 3353 02:11:49,669 --> 02:11:47,520 in fact actually presenting a completely 3354 02:11:51,510 --> 02:11:49,679 scripted narrative in that case on live 3355 02:11:53,430 --> 02:11:51,520 television in order to try and convey 3356 02:11:54,870 --> 02:11:53,440 that but the following decade what 3357 02:11:56,310 --> 02:11:54,880 happens you know lonnie zamora is 3358 02:11:57,990 --> 02:11:56,320 driving along 3359 02:11:59,589 --> 02:11:58,000 outside of socorro new mexico and he 3360 02:12:01,350 --> 02:11:59,599 sees something fly overhead as he's 3361 02:12:02,790 --> 02:12:01,360 chasing a black vehicle 3362 02:12:04,550 --> 02:12:02,800 and he says well you know i'm just gonna 3363 02:12:05,750 --> 02:12:04,560 have to let those kids go and go up here 3364 02:12:07,430 --> 02:12:05,760 and see what this thing is maybe there's 3365 02:12:09,109 --> 02:12:07,440 an aircraft in trouble 3366 02:12:11,270 --> 02:12:09,119 you know he goes up there 3367 02:12:13,669 --> 02:12:11,280 and he sees essentially a tic tac on tr 3368 02:12:15,189 --> 02:12:13,679 on a tripod right with two little guys 3369 02:12:16,310 --> 02:12:15,199 and silver suits outside the thing he 3370 02:12:17,430 --> 02:12:16,320 says that they look like they were kind 3371 02:12:19,350 --> 02:12:17,440 of startled 3372 02:12:20,629 --> 02:12:19,360 when he saw him and they get back on 3373 02:12:22,470 --> 02:12:20,639 board the thing and it takes off and 3374 02:12:24,069 --> 02:12:22,480 it's roaring like thunder as it flies 3375 02:12:25,750 --> 02:12:24,079 overhead and he crouches down and gets 3376 02:12:27,189 --> 02:12:25,760 behind his vehicle 3377 02:12:28,709 --> 02:12:27,199 when blue book had to go down there and 3378 02:12:29,669 --> 02:12:28,719 investigate that there was a fair amount 3379 02:12:31,510 --> 02:12:29,679 of crow 3380 02:12:34,390 --> 02:12:31,520 that was served in the pie they had that 3381 02:12:35,750 --> 02:12:34,400 that afternoon for dinner because i mean 3382 02:12:37,030 --> 02:12:35,760 you know i believe it was hector 3383 02:12:38,550 --> 02:12:37,040 quintanilla who was the head of project 3384 02:12:41,109 --> 02:12:38,560 blue book at the time and he had been 3385 02:12:42,550 --> 02:12:41,119 not necessarily um 3386 02:12:44,470 --> 02:12:42,560 a proponent 3387 02:12:45,990 --> 02:12:44,480 of there being a reality to ufos he 3388 02:12:47,589 --> 02:12:46,000 seemed to be one of the more dismissive 3389 02:12:49,189 --> 02:12:47,599 blue book heads 3390 02:12:52,470 --> 02:12:49,199 but he even had to say look you know 3391 02:12:55,189 --> 02:12:52,480 based on the merit of zamora's character 3392 02:12:56,310 --> 02:12:55,199 based on you know even certain 3393 02:12:57,990 --> 02:12:56,320 there were very few but there were 3394 02:12:59,669 --> 02:12:58,000 certain traces that were left at the 3395 02:13:00,870 --> 02:12:59,679 purported landing site and they they 3396 02:13:02,550 --> 02:13:00,880 said it was clear that we were able to 3397 02:13:04,550 --> 02:13:02,560 establish the location where he said he 3398 02:13:06,069 --> 02:13:04,560 saw this thing we could certainly see 3399 02:13:07,750 --> 02:13:06,079 his tire tracks where his vehicle had 3400 02:13:09,589 --> 02:13:07,760 gone up the hill adjacent to it and had 3401 02:13:10,629 --> 02:13:09,599 actually seen the craft 3402 02:13:13,030 --> 02:13:10,639 you know 3403 02:13:14,470 --> 02:13:13,040 zamora as an officer of the law seems 3404 02:13:16,390 --> 02:13:14,480 unimpeachable 3405 02:13:18,069 --> 02:13:16,400 and this has to be one of the best ufo 3406 02:13:20,790 --> 02:13:18,079 sightings on record 3407 02:13:22,550 --> 02:13:20,800 and you know again when they were forced 3408 02:13:24,629 --> 02:13:22,560 to have to essentially say you know we 3409 02:13:26,709 --> 02:13:24,639 can't explain this one and we can't say 3410 02:13:30,390 --> 02:13:26,719 that lonnie's a crack you know crack 3411 02:13:31,830 --> 02:13:30,400 potter or weirdo or a hoaxer some people 3412 02:13:33,109 --> 02:13:31,840 did nonetheless try to say after the 3413 02:13:35,189 --> 02:13:33,119 fact that he'd been mistaken it was a 3414 02:13:36,709 --> 02:13:35,199 candle balloon nothing sophisticated a 3415 02:13:38,229 --> 02:13:36,719 bunch of kids at the local college you 3416 02:13:40,470 --> 02:13:38,239 know just messing around 3417 02:13:41,910 --> 02:13:40,480 look guys i'm sorry i don't buy that but 3418 02:13:43,830 --> 02:13:41,920 when you are faced with the apparent 3419 02:13:45,669 --> 02:13:43,840 reality that there are legitimate things 3420 02:13:47,430 --> 02:13:45,679 and in this case a landing observed by a 3421 02:13:49,750 --> 02:13:47,440 police officer with the occupants 3422 02:13:52,149 --> 02:13:49,760 outside this thing whatever it was this 3423 02:13:54,390 --> 02:13:52,159 egg-shaped or tic-tac-shaped object 3424 02:13:56,790 --> 02:13:54,400 you know that's a real problem for the 3425 02:14:00,390 --> 02:13:56,800 u.s air force well that was the case 3426 02:14:03,830 --> 02:14:00,400 that they they spent money on trying to 3427 02:14:06,709 --> 02:14:03,840 debunk trying to solve trying to figure 3428 02:14:09,189 --> 02:14:06,719 it out you know uh uh the lunar lander 3429 02:14:12,069 --> 02:14:09,199 you know test aircraft uh 3430 02:14:14,310 --> 02:14:12,079 every aspect to it that they could 3431 02:14:17,669 --> 02:14:14,320 hopefully explain this away 3432 02:14:21,910 --> 02:14:17,679 they couldn't that's the case that that 3433 02:14:24,870 --> 02:14:21,920 uh j alan heineck said you know what 3434 02:14:27,750 --> 02:14:24,880 this is the one that might be a ufo this 3435 02:14:29,669 --> 02:14:27,760 might be e.t that's the one case that 3436 02:14:30,790 --> 02:14:29,679 they just couldn't whitewash they 3437 02:14:32,149 --> 02:14:30,800 couldn't do it 3438 02:14:33,750 --> 02:14:32,159 no they couldn't you're absolutely right 3439 02:14:35,669 --> 02:14:33,760 they couldn't and again you know at that 3440 02:14:36,709 --> 02:14:35,679 point the air force began to realize 3441 02:14:38,950 --> 02:14:36,719 they're like we're never going to get 3442 02:14:40,629 --> 02:14:38,960 out of the ufo issue you know out of uf 3443 02:14:44,550 --> 02:14:40,639 investigation game but now it got even 3444 02:14:46,790 --> 02:14:44,560 stranger though because by 1965 1966 3445 02:14:48,550 --> 02:14:46,800 there was a wave of sightings this is 3446 02:14:50,709 --> 02:14:48,560 when john keel got into the game and 3447 02:14:52,830 --> 02:14:50,719 began doing his own analysis based 3448 02:14:55,589 --> 02:14:52,840 primarily on interviewing witnesses 3449 02:14:57,830 --> 02:14:55,599 himself and also collecting 3450 02:14:59,350 --> 02:14:57,840 uh he you know subscribed to newspaper 3451 02:15:01,189 --> 02:14:59,360 clipping services back in those days 3452 02:15:03,030 --> 02:15:01,199 because you didn't have the world wide 3453 02:15:05,910 --> 02:15:03,040 web and so he said he would get 3454 02:15:08,709 --> 02:15:05,920 sometimes i mean hundreds of clippings 3455 02:15:10,310 --> 02:15:08,719 mailed to him in a single day 3456 02:15:11,910 --> 02:15:10,320 that were you know newspaper clippings 3457 02:15:13,350 --> 02:15:11,920 from newspapers all around the country 3458 02:15:14,550 --> 02:15:13,360 reporting ufo sightings and he would 3459 02:15:16,470 --> 02:15:14,560 follow up with the editors of those 3460 02:15:18,310 --> 02:15:16,480 newspapers he would interview the 3461 02:15:19,669 --> 02:15:18,320 writers who had covered the story he 3462 02:15:21,350 --> 02:15:19,679 would find the witnesses he would talk 3463 02:15:23,270 --> 02:15:21,360 with him he would travel anytime he 3464 02:15:25,510 --> 02:15:23,280 could to go to those locations 3465 02:15:27,750 --> 02:15:25,520 and interview them and you know keel did 3466 02:15:29,430 --> 02:15:27,760 some i have to say kiel's early work was 3467 02:15:30,390 --> 02:15:29,440 just groundbreaking he was a really 3468 02:15:33,350 --> 02:15:30,400 truly 3469 02:15:35,669 --> 02:15:33,360 scientifically minded researcher but his 3470 02:15:37,189 --> 02:15:35,679 conclusions took him into very strange 3471 02:15:39,350 --> 02:15:37,199 areas and again we could talk about that 3472 02:15:41,189 --> 02:15:39,360 later the point is keel and people like 3473 02:15:42,390 --> 02:15:41,199 that at that point were really hot on 3474 02:15:43,830 --> 02:15:42,400 the trail they thought you know we can 3475 02:15:45,189 --> 02:15:43,840 get to the bottom of this if we really 3476 02:15:46,790 --> 02:15:45,199 study this thing 3477 02:15:49,270 --> 02:15:46,800 this ufo issue because i mean there are 3478 02:15:50,870 --> 02:15:49,280 a lot of sightings happening right now 3479 02:15:52,629 --> 02:15:50,880 this even garnered the attention of then 3480 02:15:54,790 --> 02:15:52,639 congressman gerald ford and he 3481 02:15:56,149 --> 02:15:54,800 criticized alan heineck you know he said 3482 02:15:57,990 --> 02:15:56,159 you know i don't like you saying that 3483 02:16:01,189 --> 02:15:58,000 our you know the constituents in my 3484 02:16:03,910 --> 02:16:01,199 state are seeing swamp gas mr heineck 3485 02:16:05,510 --> 02:16:03,920 and this deserves attention it deserves 3486 02:16:07,109 --> 02:16:05,520 congressional hearings he was calling 3487 02:16:08,870 --> 02:16:07,119 for congressional hearings 3488 02:16:10,149 --> 02:16:08,880 at this point 3489 02:16:11,910 --> 02:16:10,159 things really came to a head in the air 3490 02:16:13,589 --> 02:16:11,920 force realized okay we've got a real 3491 02:16:15,830 --> 02:16:13,599 problem on our hands because we've got 3492 02:16:17,589 --> 02:16:15,840 congressmen calling for hearings you 3493 02:16:19,430 --> 02:16:17,599 know we've got people all over the place 3494 02:16:20,390 --> 02:16:19,440 saying they're seeing these things we 3495 02:16:23,270 --> 02:16:20,400 still 3496 02:16:25,589 --> 02:16:23,280 after at this point more than 15 years 3497 02:16:27,990 --> 02:16:25,599 in the ufo investigation business the 3498 02:16:29,669 --> 02:16:28,000 air force still had drawn no conclusions 3499 02:16:31,510 --> 02:16:29,679 they were obviously more than ready to 3500 02:16:32,870 --> 02:16:31,520 be rid of this problem and so they award 3501 02:16:34,389 --> 02:16:32,880 the contract at that point to the 3502 02:16:36,150 --> 02:16:34,399 university of colorado which was like 3503 02:16:37,669 --> 02:16:36,160 the third or maybe fourth university 3504 02:16:39,349 --> 02:16:37,679 that they went to 3505 02:16:41,030 --> 02:16:39,359 didn't tell the university of colorado 3506 02:16:43,270 --> 02:16:41,040 they'd gone to other universities before 3507 02:16:45,349 --> 02:16:43,280 that when they finally accepted they get 3508 02:16:46,709 --> 02:16:45,359 edward condon on board 3509 02:16:48,790 --> 02:16:46,719 and anybody who thinks that that was a 3510 02:16:51,429 --> 02:16:48,800 scientific study again i'll just point 3511 02:16:53,110 --> 02:16:51,439 out the fact that even prior to its 3512 02:16:54,870 --> 02:16:53,120 completion 3513 02:16:56,870 --> 02:16:54,880 there had been a revolt that occurred 3514 02:16:59,190 --> 02:16:56,880 within the condon committee some of its 3515 02:17:00,870 --> 02:16:59,200 members were dismissed others left 3516 02:17:03,110 --> 02:17:00,880 but this all having to do with this 3517 02:17:05,509 --> 02:17:03,120 memorandum that was leaked from one of 3518 02:17:08,070 --> 02:17:05,519 the project directors robert lowe he's 3519 02:17:09,910 --> 02:17:08,080 basically second under edward condon and 3520 02:17:12,230 --> 02:17:09,920 in this memorandum lo is essentially 3521 02:17:14,469 --> 02:17:12,240 saying look you know the trick here 3522 02:17:16,469 --> 02:17:14,479 is to convey to other members of the 3523 02:17:19,910 --> 02:17:16,479 scientific community that this is an 3524 02:17:21,750 --> 02:17:19,920 entirely objective study but those who 3525 02:17:23,429 --> 02:17:21,760 are in the know who are reading this 3526 02:17:24,870 --> 02:17:23,439 scientists in other words 3527 02:17:27,190 --> 02:17:24,880 you know they're going to see us as 3528 02:17:29,750 --> 02:17:27,200 being a group of scientists skeptics who 3529 02:17:31,429 --> 02:17:29,760 have zero to no expectation of finding a 3530 02:17:33,270 --> 02:17:31,439 valid saucer 3531 02:17:36,549 --> 02:17:33,280 and furthermore we're going to emphasize 3532 02:17:38,150 --> 02:17:36,559 not the ufo report and the objects but 3533 02:17:41,270 --> 02:17:38,160 we're going to emphasize the 3534 02:17:43,910 --> 02:17:41,280 psychological nature of the experience 3535 02:17:44,950 --> 02:17:43,920 the the the psychological analysis of 3536 02:17:47,509 --> 02:17:44,960 the witnesses we're going to have 3537 02:17:49,429 --> 02:17:47,519 psychologists on our team who will help 3538 02:17:51,910 --> 02:17:49,439 us analyze the witnesses and their 3539 02:17:54,070 --> 02:17:51,920 mindset and their mental state 3540 02:17:57,190 --> 02:17:54,080 not so much deciding of the object 3541 02:17:59,750 --> 02:17:57,200 itself when this memorandum leaked 3542 02:18:01,509 --> 02:17:59,760 i mean first of all it was when when 3543 02:18:03,030 --> 02:18:01,519 condon found out who had been 3544 02:18:05,509 --> 02:18:03,040 responsible for the leak he called it 3545 02:18:06,950 --> 02:18:05,519 treasonous and that person was dismissed 3546 02:18:08,790 --> 02:18:06,960 uh and there was a book written about 3547 02:18:11,750 --> 02:18:08,800 this by david saunders called ufos yes 3548 02:18:13,830 --> 02:18:11,760 where the condon committee went wrong 3549 02:18:15,669 --> 02:18:13,840 and it outlines all the problems with 3550 02:18:17,750 --> 02:18:15,679 that report i mean you had half your 3551 02:18:18,950 --> 02:18:17,760 members you know leave 3552 02:18:22,790 --> 02:18:18,960 halfway through 3553 02:18:24,950 --> 02:18:22,800 so in short form right there toward the 3554 02:18:27,190 --> 02:18:24,960 end of the project's completion 3555 02:18:29,589 --> 02:18:27,200 new members had to be brought in got up 3556 02:18:31,990 --> 02:18:29,599 to speed very quickly and tried to you 3557 02:18:33,190 --> 02:18:32,000 know cobble together this report which 3558 02:18:34,709 --> 02:18:33,200 had already 3559 02:18:35,750 --> 02:18:34,719 been gravely 3560 02:18:38,070 --> 02:18:35,760 um 3561 02:18:39,509 --> 02:18:38,080 we might say character assassinated but 3562 02:18:42,469 --> 02:18:39,519 it wasn't really character assassination 3563 02:18:44,950 --> 02:18:42,479 i mean it had been the the public trust 3564 02:18:47,270 --> 02:18:44,960 in their ability to conduct a truly 3565 02:18:49,270 --> 02:18:47,280 objective scientific study was entirely 3566 02:18:50,790 --> 02:18:49,280 undermined that would be compromised 3567 02:18:52,950 --> 02:18:50,800 yeah i was compromised 3568 02:18:54,309 --> 02:18:52,960 when this memo came out and again 3569 02:18:56,389 --> 02:18:54,319 they released their report their 3570 02:18:58,230 --> 02:18:56,399 conclusions were very expected very 3571 02:18:59,910 --> 02:18:58,240 easily anticipated and the air force 3572 02:19:02,629 --> 02:18:59,920 followed suit they got out of ufo 3573 02:19:04,150 --> 02:19:02,639 investigations that was the prologue to 3574 02:19:06,070 --> 02:19:04,160 everything chris mellon is writing in 3575 02:19:08,309 --> 02:19:06,080 this new article and i want to and i 3576 02:19:10,309 --> 02:19:08,319 want to circle back to that and i i do 3577 02:19:14,230 --> 02:19:10,319 want to make one point though 3578 02:19:16,230 --> 02:19:14,240 um i have always thought 3579 02:19:18,549 --> 02:19:16,240 from the beginning 3580 02:19:21,509 --> 02:19:18,559 that colorado 3581 02:19:23,110 --> 02:19:21,519 is an air force state 3582 02:19:24,870 --> 02:19:23,120 you've got the air force academy 3583 02:19:27,190 --> 02:19:24,880 colorado springs 3584 02:19:30,230 --> 02:19:27,200 uh you've got norad defense 3585 02:19:32,070 --> 02:19:30,240 installations it's an air force state 3586 02:19:34,389 --> 02:19:32,080 and you bring in the condom report 3587 02:19:36,709 --> 02:19:34,399 university of color the influence 3588 02:19:39,190 --> 02:19:36,719 was always there 3589 02:19:40,309 --> 02:19:39,200 from the beginning we can say objective 3590 02:19:41,429 --> 02:19:40,319 we can say 3591 02:19:44,950 --> 02:19:41,439 you know what 3592 02:19:47,750 --> 02:19:44,960 when uh when every approach to getting 3593 02:19:48,630 --> 02:19:47,760 this report done failed they fall right 3594 02:19:51,110 --> 02:19:48,640 to 3595 02:19:52,150 --> 02:19:51,120 the state that is under air force 3596 02:19:55,110 --> 02:19:52,160 control 3597 02:19:57,990 --> 02:19:55,120 in my opinion and we can't we can't just 3598 02:19:59,830 --> 02:19:58,000 dismiss this as as being part of the 3599 02:20:02,550 --> 02:19:59,840 influence of that and the air force 3600 02:20:04,950 --> 02:20:02,560 wanted this to go in one direction which 3601 02:20:07,190 --> 02:20:04,960 brings me back to your point 3602 02:20:08,950 --> 02:20:07,200 and and chris mellon believe it or not 3603 02:20:10,950 --> 02:20:08,960 this is all connected 3604 02:20:13,190 --> 02:20:10,960 air force wanted air force wanted to 3605 02:20:16,150 --> 02:20:13,200 control the narrative then 3606 02:20:18,150 --> 02:20:16,160 and they're trying to control it now by 3607 02:20:20,710 --> 02:20:18,160 not being cooperative 3608 02:20:23,110 --> 02:20:20,720 right by not they they have said things 3609 02:20:24,710 --> 02:20:23,120 they've made motions like they're going 3610 02:20:26,230 --> 02:20:24,720 to cooperate that they're going to 3611 02:20:28,469 --> 02:20:26,240 establish this and they're going to do 3612 02:20:30,230 --> 02:20:28,479 this within six months 3613 02:20:31,910 --> 02:20:30,240 where's where's the evidence that they 3614 02:20:33,270 --> 02:20:31,920 have done anything 3615 02:20:36,550 --> 02:20:33,280 since uh 3616 02:20:39,429 --> 02:20:36,560 uh the dni uh the uap task force report 3617 02:20:41,190 --> 02:20:39,439 of august 25th it has there been any 3618 02:20:45,190 --> 02:20:41,200 cooperation since 3619 02:20:47,990 --> 02:20:45,200 has was there anything done with the uap 3620 02:20:50,389 --> 02:20:48,000 task force report before it was released 3621 02:20:53,110 --> 02:20:50,399 and where is that oversight 3622 02:20:55,349 --> 02:20:53,120 is the air force doing anything today or 3623 02:20:56,469 --> 02:20:55,359 are they trying to again continue to 3624 02:20:59,270 --> 02:20:56,479 control 3625 02:21:02,070 --> 02:20:59,280 the narrative right precisely again you 3626 02:21:04,550 --> 02:21:02,080 know based on chris mellon's uh 3627 02:21:06,309 --> 02:21:04,560 dialogue with people in washington and 3628 02:21:08,389 --> 02:21:06,319 whatnot as outlined in the article that 3629 02:21:09,990 --> 02:21:08,399 we published there at the debrief 3630 02:21:11,510 --> 02:21:10,000 you know his take and i asked for 3631 02:21:13,270 --> 02:21:11,520 clarification on this have you gotten 3632 02:21:15,190 --> 02:21:13,280 any indication that the air force had 3633 02:21:17,190 --> 02:21:15,200 been compliant with providing 3634 02:21:18,870 --> 02:21:17,200 information to the task force 3635 02:21:21,030 --> 02:21:18,880 that does not seem to be conveyed in the 3636 02:21:23,110 --> 02:21:21,040 report although the air force is listed 3637 02:21:24,950 --> 02:21:23,120 among the agencies that the uap task 3638 02:21:26,389 --> 02:21:24,960 force queried for information and that 3639 02:21:28,309 --> 02:21:26,399 it hoped to coordinate with in the 3640 02:21:31,510 --> 02:21:28,319 future now 3641 02:21:33,910 --> 02:21:31,520 uh it does state in the report that 3642 02:21:36,550 --> 02:21:33,920 the navy about two years ago had 3643 02:21:39,349 --> 02:21:36,560 instituted this new formalized 3644 02:21:41,349 --> 02:21:39,359 uh information reporting 3645 02:21:42,710 --> 02:21:41,359 mechanism right a new formalized 3646 02:21:44,070 --> 02:21:42,720 mechanism 3647 02:21:47,349 --> 02:21:44,080 through which navy personnel could 3648 02:21:49,830 --> 02:21:47,359 report uap sightings and they say that 3649 02:21:52,469 --> 02:21:49,840 i believe it was in like late 2020 if 3650 02:21:55,510 --> 02:21:52,479 memory serves that the air force also 3651 02:21:57,349 --> 02:21:55,520 adopted that that has been adopted and 3652 02:21:59,830 --> 02:21:57,359 in fact after we published chris's 3653 02:22:01,270 --> 02:21:59,840 article uh it was very nice of robert 3654 02:22:02,630 --> 02:22:01,280 powell of the scientific coalition for 3655 02:22:04,309 --> 02:22:02,640 uap studies i'm a member of that 3656 02:22:06,150 --> 02:22:04,319 organization but robert is of course one 3657 02:22:07,590 --> 02:22:06,160 of our executive directors 3658 02:22:08,389 --> 02:22:07,600 he reached out to me with a short 3659 02:22:09,910 --> 02:22:08,399 article 3660 02:22:11,429 --> 02:22:09,920 kind of in response it wasn't a rebuttal 3661 02:22:13,990 --> 02:22:11,439 by any means he's very much aligned i 3662 02:22:16,790 --> 02:22:14,000 think with chris's uh positions 3663 02:22:18,870 --> 02:22:16,800 but he wrote back with a response uh 3664 02:22:21,190 --> 02:22:18,880 saying that coincidentally while you 3665 02:22:23,030 --> 02:22:21,200 know chris was immediately preparing to 3666 02:22:24,389 --> 02:22:23,040 to publish this article 3667 02:22:26,550 --> 02:22:24,399 i've been in touch with an air force 3668 02:22:28,790 --> 02:22:26,560 serviceman and i was talking with him 3669 02:22:29,830 --> 02:22:28,800 about a suspected uap incident that 3670 02:22:32,309 --> 02:22:29,840 occurred 3671 02:22:33,590 --> 02:22:32,319 involving a warship at sea 3672 02:22:35,750 --> 02:22:33,600 we've heard a lot about those over the 3673 02:22:37,429 --> 02:22:35,760 last few years and so robert had been 3674 02:22:39,030 --> 02:22:37,439 following up with this gentleman and he 3675 02:22:40,389 --> 02:22:39,040 said that he had actually been a part of 3676 02:22:42,630 --> 02:22:40,399 a briefing 3677 02:22:44,469 --> 02:22:42,640 where he and other service men and women 3678 02:22:47,349 --> 02:22:44,479 were brought into the room and they were 3679 02:22:48,870 --> 02:22:47,359 briefed briefly on ufos briefly in a 3680 02:22:50,790 --> 02:22:48,880 brief imagine that 3681 02:22:52,950 --> 02:22:50,800 right i guess it was a debrief but yes 3682 02:22:55,429 --> 02:22:52,960 and he said we were literally shown a 3683 02:22:58,230 --> 02:22:55,439 chart with different general shapes 3684 02:23:00,790 --> 02:22:58,240 saucer tic tac you know different things 3685 02:23:02,870 --> 02:23:00,800 that ufos might resemble yeah 3686 02:23:04,950 --> 02:23:02,880 and and he said we've never experienced 3687 02:23:07,110 --> 02:23:04,960 anything like that and so robert 3688 02:23:08,630 --> 02:23:07,120 powell's takeaway from this was he said 3689 02:23:10,230 --> 02:23:08,640 you know this is hopeful because these 3690 02:23:12,309 --> 02:23:10,240 were air force personnel that received 3691 02:23:13,750 --> 02:23:12,319 this briefing now that doesn't surprise 3692 02:23:15,190 --> 02:23:13,760 me i'm sure robert probably isn't 3693 02:23:17,110 --> 02:23:15,200 surprised either because again if we 3694 02:23:19,190 --> 02:23:17,120 look at the odni report what does it say 3695 02:23:22,870 --> 02:23:19,200 it says that you know many months after 3696 02:23:25,429 --> 02:23:22,880 the navy did the air force did finally 3697 02:23:27,349 --> 02:23:25,439 adopt this same reporting mechanism that 3698 02:23:28,710 --> 02:23:27,359 the navy does which is supposed to work 3699 02:23:30,790 --> 02:23:28,720 more in the furtherance of collecting 3700 02:23:32,070 --> 02:23:30,800 removing the stigmas right you're not 3701 02:23:33,670 --> 02:23:32,080 going to be made fun of we aren't going 3702 02:23:35,110 --> 02:23:33,680 to be humming the x-files theme if you 3703 02:23:36,950 --> 02:23:35,120 guys say you see something we want you 3704 02:23:38,309 --> 02:23:36,960 to report it here's how to do it 3705 02:23:40,710 --> 02:23:38,319 and it does seem that that is being 3706 02:23:43,670 --> 02:23:40,720 reflected based on what powell was told 3707 02:23:45,670 --> 02:23:43,680 uh in this dialogue but again i hope 3708 02:23:47,429 --> 02:23:45,680 that that's the case more so than what 3709 02:23:49,349 --> 02:23:47,439 chris mellon has been told by numerous 3710 02:23:50,870 --> 02:23:49,359 service men and women and others that he 3711 02:23:52,309 --> 02:23:50,880 has spoken with in washington who seem 3712 02:23:53,670 --> 02:23:52,319 to convey to him and i want to be very 3713 02:23:55,510 --> 02:23:53,680 careful not to put words in his mouth 3714 02:23:56,870 --> 02:23:55,520 but you can read what he has actually 3715 02:23:59,270 --> 02:23:56,880 says 3716 02:24:01,510 --> 02:23:59,280 i can put words in his mouth here he 3717 02:24:03,270 --> 02:24:01,520 says the preliminary assessment report 3718 02:24:05,190 --> 02:24:03,280 states that the united states air force 3719 02:24:06,389 --> 02:24:05,200 began a six month which you were just 3720 02:24:09,590 --> 02:24:06,399 referring to 3721 02:24:11,910 --> 02:24:09,600 pilot program in november of 2020 to 3722 02:24:13,030 --> 02:24:11,920 collect in the most likely areas to 3723 02:24:17,510 --> 02:24:13,040 encounter 3724 02:24:19,910 --> 02:24:17,520 uap and is evaluating how to normalize 3725 02:24:22,469 --> 02:24:19,920 future collection reporting and analysis 3726 02:24:24,070 --> 02:24:22,479 across the entire air force 3727 02:24:25,990 --> 02:24:24,080 and then 3728 02:24:26,870 --> 02:24:26,000 he goes on to say 3729 02:24:28,710 --> 02:24:26,880 that 3730 02:24:31,830 --> 02:24:28,720 some of the air force's oversight 3731 02:24:35,349 --> 02:24:31,840 committees have been advised that last 3732 02:24:37,910 --> 02:24:35,359 year the air force warned its personnel 3733 02:24:40,230 --> 02:24:37,920 not to approach the uap task force 3734 02:24:42,150 --> 02:24:40,240 without prior approval that there are 3735 02:24:45,030 --> 02:24:42,160 also reports that individuals 3736 02:24:47,910 --> 02:24:45,040 participating in classified dod chat 3737 02:24:51,030 --> 02:24:47,920 room devoted to uap issues were 3738 02:24:54,550 --> 02:24:51,040 subsequently interrogated by u.s air 3739 02:24:57,190 --> 02:24:54,560 force osi officers who warned them 3740 02:25:00,469 --> 02:24:57,200 against further participation 3741 02:25:03,270 --> 02:25:00,479 uh and that these reports he wants to 3742 02:25:05,349 --> 02:25:03,280 know if these reports are accurate why 3743 02:25:07,590 --> 02:25:05,359 has the united states air force been 3744 02:25:10,550 --> 02:25:07,600 interfering with these important 3745 02:25:12,710 --> 02:25:10,560 information sharing efforts now listen 3746 02:25:15,110 --> 02:25:12,720 again i don't doubt that the air force 3747 02:25:17,110 --> 02:25:15,120 is probably briefing its personnel as 3748 02:25:18,870 --> 02:25:17,120 robert powell indicated in his uh you 3749 02:25:21,670 --> 02:25:18,880 know response that we published on 3750 02:25:24,790 --> 02:25:21,680 monday i also don't doubt that the air 3751 02:25:27,910 --> 02:25:24,800 force is collecting data on uap but what 3752 02:25:29,510 --> 02:25:27,920 chris mellon uh conveys in those in 3753 02:25:30,550 --> 02:25:29,520 those in that passage in that portion of 3754 02:25:32,790 --> 02:25:30,560 the article 3755 02:25:35,990 --> 02:25:32,800 seems to be again i would interpret that 3756 02:25:38,790 --> 02:25:36,000 as being their attempt at controlling 3757 02:25:40,150 --> 02:25:38,800 the way that uap information is gathered 3758 02:25:42,150 --> 02:25:40,160 and disseminated 3759 02:25:44,309 --> 02:25:42,160 you know collected by and then released 3760 02:25:46,309 --> 02:25:44,319 from that branch of the military which 3761 02:25:49,110 --> 02:25:46,319 again to my earlier point going back to 3762 02:25:51,349 --> 02:25:49,120 1958 we saw similar things playing out 3763 02:25:53,270 --> 02:25:51,359 on national television right 3764 02:25:55,190 --> 02:25:53,280 right their control of the way that that 3765 02:25:57,349 --> 02:25:55,200 narrative was presented now what's 3766 02:25:58,550 --> 02:25:57,359 different between then and now 3767 02:26:00,469 --> 02:25:58,560 well then 3768 02:26:03,190 --> 02:26:00,479 they were very concerned about 3769 02:26:05,190 --> 02:26:03,200 ufo interest held by the public being 3770 02:26:08,469 --> 02:26:05,200 exploited by enemy nations like the 3771 02:26:09,910 --> 02:26:08,479 soviets and used to our disadvantage 3772 02:26:11,590 --> 02:26:09,920 right that could create a national 3773 02:26:14,230 --> 02:26:11,600 security threat can we say that the same 3774 02:26:16,710 --> 02:26:14,240 would necessarily be true today i don't 3775 02:26:19,030 --> 02:26:16,720 think so i don't think so in a society 3776 02:26:20,870 --> 02:26:19,040 in a world in fact that is so saturated 3777 02:26:23,110 --> 02:26:20,880 with information with the world wide web 3778 02:26:25,349 --> 02:26:23,120 you know everybody's got access to 3779 02:26:27,510 --> 02:26:25,359 everything all the summation of human 3780 02:26:29,590 --> 02:26:27,520 knowledge it's at their fingertips and 3781 02:26:31,270 --> 02:26:29,600 we carry it around in our pockets on a 3782 02:26:32,469 --> 02:26:31,280 smartphone every day 3783 02:26:34,550 --> 02:26:32,479 and you know 3784 02:26:36,070 --> 02:26:34,560 i don't think that the same i mean some 3785 02:26:37,349 --> 02:26:36,080 of the same ideas would apply but i 3786 02:26:39,590 --> 02:26:37,359 don't think that the 3787 02:26:41,670 --> 02:26:39,600 climate culturally politically 3788 02:26:43,110 --> 02:26:41,680 geopolitically is the same as it was in 3789 02:26:44,230 --> 02:26:43,120 1958 3790 02:26:46,070 --> 02:26:44,240 we have to take those things into 3791 02:26:48,309 --> 02:26:46,080 consideration and maybe 3792 02:26:50,230 --> 02:26:48,319 some of our officials do too and that 3793 02:26:52,469 --> 02:26:50,240 could be part of the reason why we have 3794 02:26:55,349 --> 02:26:52,479 seen more information forthcoming but 3795 02:26:57,110 --> 02:26:55,359 again as to the idea that many often ask 3796 02:26:59,190 --> 02:26:57,120 of course jimmy and you and i talk about 3797 02:27:01,510 --> 02:26:59,200 this others you know write in or call us 3798 02:27:03,670 --> 02:27:01,520 on our shows and ask about this 3799 02:27:05,750 --> 02:27:03,680 guys are we seeing government disclosure 3800 02:27:07,670 --> 02:27:05,760 is this the government finally just are 3801 02:27:09,510 --> 02:27:07,680 they fed up to or do they recognize the 3802 02:27:11,510 --> 02:27:09,520 kind of cultural changes that hanks is 3803 02:27:13,110 --> 02:27:11,520 rambling about and are they saying you 3804 02:27:14,550 --> 02:27:13,120 know it's time for us to you know let 3805 02:27:15,510 --> 02:27:14,560 the people know to let them know the 3806 02:27:17,349 --> 02:27:15,520 truth 3807 02:27:19,349 --> 02:27:17,359 i don't think it's that at all 3808 02:27:21,110 --> 02:27:19,359 i think what this is is again 3809 02:27:24,070 --> 02:27:21,120 as i said at the outset 3810 02:27:26,469 --> 02:27:24,080 people like chris mellon people like 3811 02:27:28,550 --> 02:27:26,479 lou elizondo who have been willing to 3812 02:27:30,630 --> 02:27:28,560 come out of government 3813 02:27:32,150 --> 02:27:30,640 to raise awareness about this issue but 3814 02:27:34,469 --> 02:27:32,160 to make sure that lawmakers take it 3815 02:27:36,790 --> 02:27:34,479 seriously and that they get involved 3816 02:27:38,550 --> 02:27:36,800 to help them know that their 3817 02:27:40,550 --> 02:27:38,560 constituents don't think this is 3818 02:27:42,830 --> 02:27:40,560 nonsense that they take it seriously and 3819 02:27:45,349 --> 02:27:42,840 that by virtue of being our elected 3820 02:27:47,990 --> 02:27:45,359 officials who we appoint through the 3821 02:27:49,270 --> 02:27:48,000 electoral process to represent us in 3822 02:27:51,670 --> 02:27:49,280 washington 3823 02:27:53,590 --> 02:27:51,680 that those individuals need to know this 3824 02:27:55,590 --> 02:27:53,600 is an important issue for us it's 3825 02:27:57,670 --> 02:27:55,600 therefore important for you and it's 3826 02:27:59,830 --> 02:27:57,680 certainly important for our leaders our 3827 02:28:02,230 --> 02:27:59,840 leadership in washington you know that 3828 02:28:03,670 --> 02:28:02,240 is the effort that has been underway for 3829 02:28:04,550 --> 02:28:03,680 the last few years and let me tell you 3830 02:28:06,550 --> 02:28:04,560 something 3831 02:28:08,230 --> 02:28:06,560 we've seen headway we've seen a sea 3832 02:28:10,150 --> 02:28:08,240 change perhaps in recent years but that 3833 02:28:12,309 --> 02:28:10,160 effort's been underway for a long time 3834 02:28:14,230 --> 02:28:12,319 we go back to 1961 new york times 3835 02:28:16,150 --> 02:28:14,240 quoting roscoe hillenkotter the first d 3836 02:28:17,750 --> 02:28:16,160 as a cia director 3837 02:28:18,950 --> 02:28:17,760 he's saying guys we don't have any data 3838 02:28:21,349 --> 02:28:18,960 that these things are soviet 3839 02:28:24,230 --> 02:28:21,359 technologies you had your former your 3840 02:28:26,630 --> 02:28:24,240 first cia director who joined nycap and 3841 02:28:29,990 --> 02:28:26,640 was you know aligned with kehoe 3842 02:28:32,710 --> 02:28:30,000 publicly stating the air force 3843 02:28:35,030 --> 02:28:32,720 tries to play down the severity of the 3844 02:28:37,270 --> 02:28:35,040 ufo issue publicly 3845 02:28:38,230 --> 02:28:37,280 but when i talk to personnel behind the 3846 02:28:40,150 --> 02:28:38,240 scenes 3847 02:28:42,550 --> 02:28:40,160 they say it's serious business and 3848 02:28:45,270 --> 02:28:42,560 there's grave concern among the military 3849 02:28:46,790 --> 02:28:45,280 and among our air force personnel 3850 02:28:48,230 --> 02:28:46,800 behind the scenes but publicly they 3851 02:28:50,710 --> 02:28:48,240 don't convey that 3852 02:28:52,950 --> 02:28:50,720 yet again i mean you had a cia director 3853 02:28:56,309 --> 02:28:52,960 pointing out what he thought was this 3854 02:28:59,910 --> 02:28:56,319 kind of you know this bipolar air force 3855 02:29:01,270 --> 02:28:59,920 you know back in 1961 yes and and how do 3856 02:29:08,070 --> 02:29:01,280 we 3857 02:29:13,349 --> 02:29:08,080 the disclosure of of atip december 17th 3858 02:29:15,349 --> 02:29:13,359 right uh and and and uh we talk about 3859 02:29:18,150 --> 02:29:15,359 how extraordinary that was that the 3860 02:29:21,110 --> 02:29:18,160 pentagon's got a secret ufo program 3861 02:29:24,150 --> 02:29:21,120 and and what big news that was 3862 02:29:26,150 --> 02:29:24,160 and here so we've made this progress 3863 02:29:29,670 --> 02:29:26,160 where the inside of the department of 3864 02:29:33,030 --> 02:29:29,680 defense they have a classified 3865 02:29:35,830 --> 02:29:33,040 ufo chat room mica they've got a 3866 02:29:37,429 --> 02:29:35,840 classified ufo chat room where branches 3867 02:29:39,910 --> 02:29:37,439 of the military can get together and 3868 02:29:41,429 --> 02:29:39,920 talk about this and the air force steps 3869 02:29:43,670 --> 02:29:41,439 in and said 3870 02:29:45,750 --> 02:29:43,680 no the air force is not going to 3871 02:29:47,349 --> 02:29:45,760 participate in this 3872 02:29:49,270 --> 02:29:47,359 if you remember the air force you are 3873 02:29:52,389 --> 02:29:49,280 not going to jump into that chat room 3874 02:29:53,750 --> 02:29:52,399 and discuss ufos that's as big a news as 3875 02:29:57,349 --> 02:29:53,760 is atip 3876 02:29:59,750 --> 02:29:57,359 back in december of 2017 3877 02:30:01,990 --> 02:29:59,760 yeah i would agree now you know 3878 02:30:05,190 --> 02:30:02,000 there's a part of me jimmy that i mean i 3879 02:30:07,590 --> 02:30:05,200 i really sympathize with the air force 3880 02:30:10,150 --> 02:30:07,600 um i sympathize more with the personnel 3881 02:30:13,429 --> 02:30:10,160 who actually have had experiences i as i 3882 02:30:15,750 --> 02:30:13,439 no doubt believe they have but who 3883 02:30:17,750 --> 02:30:15,760 as a result of this kind of 3884 02:30:21,030 --> 02:30:17,760 you know hierarchical control haven't 3885 02:30:21,990 --> 02:30:21,040 been able to address this or engage this 3886 02:30:23,030 --> 02:30:22,000 maybe 3887 02:30:25,429 --> 02:30:23,040 in in 3888 02:30:27,110 --> 02:30:25,439 as they would under other circumstances 3889 02:30:28,870 --> 02:30:27,120 you know i can sympathize first and 3890 02:30:31,990 --> 02:30:28,880 foremost with them but even more broadly 3891 02:30:34,070 --> 02:30:32,000 extending that to air force leadership 3892 02:30:36,950 --> 02:30:34,080 this is look look this is not an easy 3893 02:30:38,150 --> 02:30:36,960 problem right i mean they i think robert 3894 02:30:40,630 --> 02:30:38,160 powell said this you know look they've 3895 02:30:42,550 --> 02:30:40,640 got their work cut out for them right 3896 02:30:44,070 --> 02:30:42,560 this is not an easy problem for science 3897 02:30:46,790 --> 02:30:44,080 this is not an easy problem for the 3898 02:30:48,710 --> 02:30:46,800 military this isn't a easy problem for 3899 02:30:52,469 --> 02:30:48,720 philosophers 3900 02:30:54,309 --> 02:30:52,479 right we have yet after so many years to 3901 02:30:56,630 --> 02:30:54,319 solve this problem we don't know what 3902 02:30:57,750 --> 02:30:56,640 these objects are in the sky 3903 02:30:59,510 --> 02:30:57,760 you know we don't know how long they've 3904 02:31:01,190 --> 02:30:59,520 been here and if indeed the accounts 3905 02:31:03,429 --> 02:31:01,200 that we see going back to classical 3906 02:31:05,750 --> 02:31:03,439 antiquity that we see in you know the 3907 02:31:08,550 --> 02:31:05,760 the uh religious texts of ancient india 3908 02:31:10,550 --> 02:31:08,560 or in the you know the christian bible 3909 02:31:12,630 --> 02:31:10,560 you know or in any other other number of 3910 02:31:13,990 --> 02:31:12,640 different traditional narratives from 3911 02:31:15,510 --> 02:31:14,000 around the world we don't know if if 3912 02:31:17,670 --> 02:31:15,520 those are indeed representative of the 3913 02:31:19,429 --> 02:31:17,680 same sorts of phenomena that we observe 3914 02:31:21,110 --> 02:31:19,439 in our skies today 3915 02:31:22,950 --> 02:31:21,120 i do know this though the od and i said 3916 02:31:24,550 --> 02:31:22,960 there appear to be objects 3917 02:31:26,150 --> 02:31:24,560 and this is a big takeaway too by the 3918 02:31:27,590 --> 02:31:26,160 way about that anybody who says oh there 3919 02:31:29,349 --> 02:31:27,600 was nothing in that report we didn't 3920 02:31:31,830 --> 02:31:29,359 learn anything in that report 3921 02:31:33,830 --> 02:31:31,840 to me the most significant takeaway from 3922 02:31:36,790 --> 02:31:33,840 the entire report 3923 02:31:38,150 --> 02:31:36,800 was the other category the other bin yep 3924 02:31:40,469 --> 02:31:38,160 if you read 3925 02:31:43,190 --> 02:31:40,479 the way that they describe the other 3926 02:31:45,270 --> 02:31:43,200 bin they say it very well may be 3927 02:31:47,349 --> 02:31:45,280 that after all this airborne clutter 3928 02:31:49,110 --> 02:31:47,359 possible foreign espionage all these 3929 02:31:50,070 --> 02:31:49,120 different kinds of things that uap might 3930 02:31:53,510 --> 02:31:50,080 be 3931 02:31:55,510 --> 02:31:53,520 phenomena that we just aren't adequate 3932 02:31:57,349 --> 02:31:55,520 adequately equipped yet in terms of our 3933 02:31:59,030 --> 02:31:57,359 scientific knowledge to be able to study 3934 02:32:01,030 --> 02:31:59,040 and it will require further science 3935 02:32:02,389 --> 02:32:01,040 advances and you know in the future for 3936 02:32:03,270 --> 02:32:02,399 us to be able to wrap our heads around 3937 02:32:05,190 --> 02:32:03,280 this 3938 02:32:06,389 --> 02:32:05,200 but the uap task force and then there's 3939 02:32:07,750 --> 02:32:06,399 one sentence at the end of that 3940 02:32:10,469 --> 02:32:07,760 paragraph 3941 02:32:12,469 --> 02:32:10,479 the uap task force intends to focus its 3942 02:32:14,710 --> 02:32:12,479 further investigations 3943 02:32:16,309 --> 02:32:14,720 on instances where what appear to be 3944 02:32:18,070 --> 02:32:16,319 aerial objects 3945 02:32:21,110 --> 02:32:18,080 are displaying 3946 02:32:24,469 --> 02:32:21,120 advanced aerospace capabilities right 3947 02:32:26,630 --> 02:32:24,479 they're flying in ways that are unusual 3948 02:32:27,910 --> 02:32:26,640 and they appear to display signature 3949 02:32:29,429 --> 02:32:27,920 management 3950 02:32:30,790 --> 02:32:29,439 this of course involving the use of 3951 02:32:32,870 --> 02:32:30,800 electromagnetic frequencies to 3952 02:32:34,309 --> 02:32:32,880 essentially make it more difficult for 3953 02:32:36,630 --> 02:32:34,319 you to be detected you know radar 3954 02:32:39,750 --> 02:32:36,640 jamming and other things like that now 3955 02:32:41,270 --> 02:32:39,760 look guys as far as i know i'm no expert 3956 02:32:43,110 --> 02:32:41,280 on ball lightning but i have to actually 3957 02:32:44,630 --> 02:32:43,120 study ball lightning like phenomena that 3958 02:32:45,910 --> 02:32:44,640 manifests down at brown mountain north 3959 02:32:48,550 --> 02:32:45,920 carolina for years because i'm 3960 02:32:50,150 --> 02:32:48,560 interested in certain natural forms of 3961 02:32:51,830 --> 02:32:50,160 or what i presume to be natural forms of 3962 02:32:53,670 --> 02:32:51,840 uap 3963 02:32:55,429 --> 02:32:53,680 but i would dare guess that if it's a 3964 02:32:57,510 --> 02:32:55,439 natural phenomena it's not going to have 3965 02:33:00,630 --> 02:32:57,520 some sort of an innate capacity that 3966 02:33:02,630 --> 02:33:00,640 allows it to jam radar systems to cloak 3967 02:33:05,590 --> 02:33:02,640 itself and perhaps even functionally 3968 02:33:08,630 --> 02:33:05,600 operate without being easily visible let 3969 02:33:10,790 --> 02:33:08,640 alone being detected on radar or other 3970 02:33:12,550 --> 02:33:10,800 imaging systems you know in use by the 3971 02:33:14,230 --> 02:33:12,560 military and i'm going to tell you right 3972 02:33:17,830 --> 02:33:14,240 now i've never seen these things go mach 3973 02:33:19,910 --> 02:33:17,840 7 either

02:39:11,520 here 4087 02:39:16,790 --> 02:39:13,600 talking about chris mellon's 4088 02:39:18,630 --> 02:39:16,800 recent article uh posted over at the 4089 02:39:21,110 --> 02:39:18,640 debrief 4090 02:39:22,230 --> 02:39:21,120 why is the united states air force a 4091 02:39:25,910 --> 02:39:22,240 wall 4092 02:39:27,750 --> 02:39:25,920 on the uap issue i think i just flubbed 4093 02:39:29,510 --> 02:39:27,760 i've said i've said the title of that so 4094 02:39:31,750 --> 02:39:29,520 many times micah 4095 02:39:33,590 --> 02:39:31,760 i think i know by heart by now but i 4096 02:39:36,469 --> 02:39:33,600 think i flubbed it but here's the point 4097 02:39:40,469 --> 02:39:36,479 uh in the short time that we have left 4098 02:39:43,349 --> 02:39:40,479 um i have got uh four things that uh 4099 02:39:44,230 --> 02:39:43,359 that i want to bring up and certainly 4100 02:39:48,070 --> 02:39:44,240 uh 4101 02:39:50,389 --> 02:39:48,080 which 4102 02:39:53,190 --> 02:39:50,399 uh he's very elegant in the way that he 4103 02:39:55,270 --> 02:39:53,200 writes but i want to bring up this point 4104 02:39:56,550 --> 02:39:55,280 um and and i'm going to read here he 4105 02:39:58,630 --> 02:39:56,560 says 4106 02:40:01,429 --> 02:39:58,640 and i'm quoting is there a problem with 4107 02:40:04,790 --> 02:40:01,439 the f 22 sensor system 4108 02:40:07,990 --> 02:40:04,800 now i i found this very very interesting 4109 02:40:09,190 --> 02:40:08,000 because chris is very direct he says 4110 02:40:12,150 --> 02:40:09,200 if not 4111 02:40:15,269 --> 02:40:12,160 how is it possible that navy fighters 4112 02:40:17,670 --> 02:40:15,279 with inferior sensors 4113 02:40:19,990 --> 02:40:17,680 right now we're talking about an insider 4114 02:40:21,110 --> 02:40:20,000 of the department of defense right chris 4115 02:40:23,750 --> 02:40:21,120 mellon 4116 02:40:25,910 --> 02:40:23,760 seems to know something here 4117 02:40:27,990 --> 02:40:25,920 so he says how is it possible that navy 4118 02:40:30,150 --> 02:40:28,000 fighters with inferior sensors were 4119 02:40:32,389 --> 02:40:30,160 routinely detecting 4120 02:40:34,950 --> 02:40:32,399 uap off the east coast of the united 4121 02:40:38,070 --> 02:40:34,960 states for years while the united states 4122 02:40:39,670 --> 02:40:38,080 air force f-22s operating in the same 4123 02:40:42,950 --> 02:40:39,680 training areas 4124 02:40:47,190 --> 02:40:44,950 inconceivable in my opinion yeah 4125 02:40:48,710 --> 02:40:47,200 inconceivable 4126 02:40:49,750 --> 02:40:48,720 i didn't say it like that by the way but 4127 02:40:51,830 --> 02:40:49,760 anyway 4128 02:40:54,070 --> 02:40:51,840 you know what the best quote from the 4129 02:40:57,110 --> 02:40:54,080 princess bride i don't think you know 4130 02:41:04,710 --> 02:40:59,269 my name is 4131 02:41:09,269 --> 02:41:07,190 no i mean you know the thing is 4132 02:41:11,510 --> 02:41:09,279 it seems inconceivable that what the the 4133 02:41:13,910 --> 02:41:11,520 raptor you know would be incapable of 4134 02:41:17,510 --> 02:41:13,920 detecting and again even if it's not uh 4135 02:41:21,110 --> 02:41:17,520 equipped with the same kind of forward 4136 02:41:23,510 --> 02:41:21,120 looking targeting pod as the atfleer 4137 02:41:25,269 --> 02:41:23,520 they nonetheless have similar 4138 02:41:27,510 --> 02:41:25,279 capabilities they certainly have radar 4139 02:41:29,030 --> 02:41:27,520 they certainly have gun cameras 4140 02:41:31,030 --> 02:41:29,040 and they certainly have pilots who are 4141 02:41:33,910 --> 02:41:31,040 as acute in their 4142 02:41:35,429 --> 02:41:33,920 own innate visual capacities when they 4143 02:41:37,349 --> 02:41:35,439 see something 4144 02:41:39,269 --> 02:41:37,359 no doubt they see it just like a navy 4145 02:41:40,790 --> 02:41:39,279 pilot would and i'll bet you this too 4146 02:41:43,190 --> 02:41:40,800 jimmy

let me go to uh 4195 02:43:34,710 --> 02:43:32,880 we've got just a short time left 4196 02:43:36,550 --> 02:43:34,720 uh here's a quote from the department of 4197 02:43:38,469 --> 02:43:36,560 defense quote 4198 02:43:40,070 --> 02:43:38,479 as we have said previously the 4199 02:43:42,790 --> 02:43:40,080 department of defense and all of the 4200 02:43:44,630 --> 02:43:42,800 military departments take any incursions 4201 02:43:47,510 --> 02:43:44,640 by unauthorized aircraft into our 4202 02:43:51,429 --> 02:43:47,520 training ranges or designated airspace 4203 02:43:54,550 --> 02:43:51,439 very seriously and examine each report 4204 02:43:57,030 --> 02:43:54,560 and quote so chris goes on to say 4205 02:43:59,590 --> 02:43:57,040 if this is true why is the united states 4206 02:44:03,110 --> 02:43:59,600 air force having such a difficult time 4207 02:44:04,469 --> 02:44:03,120 identifying uap records and reports 4208 02:44:07,110 --> 02:44:04,479 and that's a legit 4209 02:44:08,550 --> 02:44:07,120 a legitimate position to take isn't it 4210 02:44:10,389 --> 02:44:08,560 it certainly is and let me just point 4211 02:44:12,710 --> 02:44:10,399 out i may be the editor-in-chief now but 4212 02:44:15,030 --> 02:44:12,720 i'm still also a reporter my you know my 4213 02:44:16,790 --> 02:44:15,040 love in all this is writing and i will 4214 02:44:18,550 --> 02:44:16,800 continue to write on this just as you 4215 02:44:20,150 --> 02:44:18,560 know chris has done and as tim mcmillan 4216 02:44:21,910 --> 02:44:20,160 will continue to do you know he and i in 4217 02:44:23,269 --> 02:44:21,920 fact are working on some things together 4218 02:44:25,349 --> 02:44:23,279 i say that because 4219 02:44:28,070 --> 02:44:25,359 in many instances when i have reached 4220 02:44:30,550 --> 02:44:28,080 out to dod spokespeople 4221 02:44:32,389 --> 02:44:30,560 that same quote essentially verbatim is 4222 02:44:34,070 --> 02:44:32,399 always what is said that is their 4223 02:44:36,710 --> 02:44:34,080 official position that being the reason 4224 02:44:39,110 --> 02:44:36,720 why if that is the official position 4225 02:44:40,870 --> 02:44:39,120 again then it should follow 4226 02:44:42,710 --> 02:44:40,880 that as chris points out 4227 02:44:44,950 --> 02:44:42,720 the information should be accessible and 4228 02:44:47,269 --> 02:44:44,960 yet it is not now 4229 02:44:49,349 --> 02:44:47,279 that can only mean one of maybe a few 4230 02:44:50,710 --> 02:44:49,359 things but however you cut it and 4231 02:44:53,030 --> 02:44:50,720 whatever the reason 4232 02:44:55,110 --> 02:44:53,040 is the information is not being released 4233 02:44:56,550 --> 02:44:55,120 and i don't see that jimmy as being 4234 02:44:58,790 --> 02:44:56,560 fundamentally different from what we saw 4235 02:45:02,790 --> 02:44:58,800 back in 1958 as we outlined in the audio 4236 02:45:05,670 --> 02:45:02,800 earlier yes and then uh chris 4237 02:45:07,349 --> 02:45:05,680 kind of uh turns it around a little bit 4238 02:45:09,030 --> 02:45:07,359 and said you know what 4239 02:45:13,030 --> 02:45:09,040 um 4240 02:45:15,190 --> 02:45:13,040 if if i was a journalist i'm obviously 4241 02:45:16,950 --> 02:45:15,200 putting words into our 4242 02:45:20,710 --> 02:45:16,960 thoughts into chris's head but this is 4243 02:45:21,990 --> 02:45:20,720 the way i would ask the air force these 4244 02:45:23,190 --> 02:45:22,000 questions 4245 02:45:25,110 --> 02:45:23,200 one 4246 02:45:28,550 --> 02:45:25,120 claims abound concerning the united 4247 02:45:30,950 --> 02:45:28,560 states air force possession of materials 4248 02:45:32,630 --> 02:45:30,960 that might definitively answer the 4249 02:45:36,150 --> 02:45:32,640 question of whether a non-human 4250 02:45:38,389 --> 02:45:36,160 civilization has found earth 4251 02:45:40,870 --> 02:45:38,399 that would likely be the most tightly 4252 02:45:44,070 --> 02:45:40,880 held secret in our government 4253 02:45:46,309 --> 02:45:44,080 what is your response to such claims 4254 02:45:49,110 --> 02:45:46,319 right and and just go straight at them 4255 02:45:52,389 --> 02:45:49,120 and and try to get them 4256 02:45:54,790 --> 02:45:52,399 uh to confront these issues because 4257 02:45:57,429 --> 02:45:54,800 this has been out there for decades this 4258 02:45:59,429 --> 02:45:57,439 has been repeated over and over again 4259 02:46:01,190 --> 02:45:59,439 yeah i think that the earliest claims of 4260 02:46:03,030 --> 02:46:01,200 recoveries you know by the air force or 4261 02:46:04,710 --> 02:46:03,040 any other branch of the military go back 4262 02:46:06,469 --> 02:46:04,720 to probably frank scully you know and 4263 02:46:09,030 --> 02:46:06,479 behind the flying saucers you know the 4264 02:46:12,870 --> 02:46:09,040 earliest popular books on this subject 4265 02:46:15,190 --> 02:46:12,880 in the 1990s the air force despite its 4266 02:46:16,790 --> 02:46:15,200 lack of involvement after the closure of 4267 02:46:19,110 --> 02:46:16,800 project blue book 4268 02:46:20,870 --> 02:46:19,120 again at the request of congress because 4269 02:46:22,389 --> 02:46:20,880 some congress men and women were getting 4270 02:46:25,349 --> 02:46:22,399 interested in the claims about the 4271 02:46:27,990 --> 02:46:25,359 roswell incident and here again public 4272 02:46:30,150 --> 02:46:28,000 interest that was generated by uh the 4273 02:46:32,870 --> 02:46:30,160 books that were being written by i mean 4274 02:46:36,550 --> 02:46:32,880 uh don schmidt and um of course kevin 4275 02:46:38,870 --> 02:46:36,560 randle uh tom carey stanton friedman 4276 02:46:40,389 --> 02:46:38,880 bill moore and charles burlitz you know 4277 02:46:42,389 --> 02:46:40,399 wrote the very first book about roswell 4278 02:46:44,150 --> 02:46:42,399 that was a public book in 1980 4279 02:46:45,990 --> 02:46:44,160 uh with all the attention it started 4280 02:46:47,590 --> 02:46:46,000 getting and then unsolved mysteries 4281 02:46:49,429 --> 02:46:47,600 dramatizing it 4282 02:46:51,110 --> 02:46:49,439 and doing an episode about that 4283 02:46:53,590 --> 02:46:51,120 there was significant enough attention 4284 02:46:55,349 --> 02:46:53,600 that there were people saying okay look 4285 02:46:56,710 --> 02:46:55,359 you know we we really need to get a 4286 02:46:59,349 --> 02:46:56,720 handle on this and so you know the air 4287 02:47:01,110 --> 02:46:59,359 force did reinvestigate roswell 4288 02:47:02,230 --> 02:47:01,120 you know kind of came out of retirement 4289 02:47:03,590 --> 02:47:02,240 so to speak 4290 02:47:05,510 --> 02:47:03,600 and what did they say they said look you 4291 02:47:07,269 --> 02:47:05,520 know guys these were mogul balloons and 4292 02:47:08,870 --> 02:47:07,279 now there are some researchers i've 4293 02:47:10,870 --> 02:47:08,880 mentioned brad sparks several times over 4294 02:47:13,030 --> 02:47:10,880 the course of this conversation he and 4295 02:47:14,710 --> 02:47:13,040 others have actually plotted the paths 4296 02:47:16,309 --> 02:47:14,720 the flight paths based on available 4297 02:47:18,710 --> 02:47:16,319 records of the mogul balloons and they 4298 02:47:22,710 --> 02:47:18,720 don't think that those actually match 4299 02:47:28,389 --> 02:47:25,670 it's off by four years 4300 02:47:30,550 --> 02:47:28,399 so well now in terms of things being off 4301 02:47:32,630 --> 02:47:30,560 in in the air force's official report 4302 02:47:34,309 --> 02:47:32,640 they intentionally say 4303 02:47:36,309 --> 02:47:34,319 we think that a lot of the alleged 4304 02:47:38,230 --> 02:47:36,319 witnesses are misremembering events that 4305 02:47:40,550 --> 02:47:38,240 happened a decade later 4306 02:47:42,469 --> 02:47:40,560 and and they they they used that in 4307 02:47:43,750 --> 02:47:42,479 their defense of jumbling together all 4308 02:47:46,230 --> 02:47:43,760 kinds of stuff that happened from the 4309 02:47:48,150 --> 02:47:46,240 40s all through the 50s and trying to 4310 02:47:50,389 --> 02:47:48,160 say all of these things misremembered 4311 02:47:52,150 --> 02:47:50,399 over the years gave rise to the myth 4312 02:47:53,670 --> 02:47:52,160 that we now associate with roswell i'm 4313 02:47:55,670 --> 02:47:53,680 less concerned with whether or not 4314 02:47:57,910 --> 02:47:55,680 roswell actually happened 4315 02:48:00,550 --> 02:47:57,920 than i am with the way and the logic in 4316 02:48:02,710 --> 02:48:00,560 which the air force presented multiple 4317 02:48:04,790 --> 02:48:02,720 conflicting narratives and tried to find 4318 02:48:06,230 --> 02:48:04,800 a way to justify lumping them all 4319 02:48:08,070 --> 02:48:06,240 together and then blame that on the 4320 02:48:09,429 --> 02:48:08,080 witnesses you know that's kind of 4321 02:48:11,429 --> 02:48:09,439 strange but again their official 4322 02:48:12,309 --> 02:48:11,439 position and the reason i mention all 4323 02:48:13,830 --> 02:48:12,319 that is 4324 02:48:15,750 --> 02:48:13,840 they of course said no we never 4325 02:48:17,590 --> 02:48:15,760 recovered a flying disc there at roswell 4326 02:48:19,190 --> 02:48:17,600 new mexico and i will point out 4327 02:48:20,550 --> 02:48:19,200 there is also some government data that 4328 02:48:22,550 --> 02:48:20,560 seems to corroborate that position i 4329 02:48:24,230 --> 02:48:22,560 mean i think a day after the roswell 4330 02:48:27,910 --> 02:48:24,240 incident allegedly happened there was 4331 02:48:30,469 --> 02:48:27,920 one page released by the fbi about that 4332 02:48:32,469 --> 02:48:30,479 and they were even saying in in 1947 4333 02:48:34,150 --> 02:48:32,479 that our data seems to show that this 4334 02:48:35,349 --> 02:48:34,160 was a balloon 4335 02:48:37,910 --> 02:48:35,359 so i mean 4336 02:48:40,230 --> 02:48:37,920 you know so again that's the official 4337 02:48:41,510 --> 02:48:40,240 air force position but there have also 4338 02:48:43,190 --> 02:48:41,520 been other reports you know ross 4339 02:48:46,070 --> 02:48:43,200 coulthart's an interesting guy and i did 4340 02:48:48,630 --> 02:48:46,080 read his book in plain sight and uh he 4341 02:48:49,590 --> 02:48:48,640 talks at in the later chapters oh no i 4342 02:48:51,429 --> 02:48:49,600 don't want to give it away everybody 4343 02:48:53,110 --> 02:48:51,439 should read it it's a very good book 4344 02:48:54,950 --> 02:48:53,120 but in the later chapters he does talk 4345 02:48:57,190 --> 02:48:54,960 about a you know high-ranking navy 4346 02:48:59,750 --> 02:48:57,200 official i believe that he spoke with 4347 02:49:01,990 --> 02:48:59,760 who had heard similar stories about 4348 02:49:04,309 --> 02:49:02,000 crash retrievals and things 4349 02:49:07,110 --> 02:49:04,319 and at one point years ago you know this 4350 02:49:09,030 --> 02:49:07,120 i'd all but kind of ruled that out 4351 02:49:10,790 --> 02:49:09,040 i'm i'm back on the fence on all of it 4352 02:49:15,070 --> 02:49:10,800 now i really am 4353 02:49:17,110 --> 02:49:15,080 i am too i mean i i still go back 4354 02:49:19,429 --> 02:49:17,120 everything and the witness and 4355 02:49:22,230 --> 02:49:19,439 everything about roswell 4356 02:49:23,670 --> 02:49:22,240 i i can put all of that to the side i i 4357 02:49:25,349 --> 02:49:23,680 really can 4358 02:49:27,910 --> 02:49:25,359 it's all great 4359 02:49:29,030 --> 02:49:27,920 i go back to the original army press 4360 02:49:32,950 --> 02:49:29,040 release 4361 02:49:33,990 --> 02:49:32,960 that was absolutely poured over line by 4362 02:49:36,309 --> 02:49:34,000 line 4363 02:49:39,349 --> 02:49:36,319 at the most secretive 4364 02:49:42,870 --> 02:49:39,359 installation on planet earth roswell 4365 02:49:44,790 --> 02:49:42,880 army airfield in the most tightly held 4366 02:49:46,870 --> 02:49:44,800 secretive state 4367 02:49:48,710 --> 02:49:46,880 a piece of land 4368 02:49:51,590 --> 02:49:48,720 in the entire world 4369 02:49:53,990 --> 02:49:51,600 new mexico all of our brightest 4370 02:49:55,910 --> 02:49:54,000 scientists every our closely held 4371 02:49:59,030 --> 02:49:55,920 secrets were all there 4372 02:50:01,429 --> 02:49:59,040 and they knew what they were doing and 4373 02:50:04,150 --> 02:50:01,439 if you're going to release 4374 02:50:05,830 --> 02:50:04,160 information like that 4375 02:50:09,590 --> 02:50:05,840 stating 4376 02:50:11,269 --> 02:50:09,600 we've recovered a flying disc 4377 02:50:13,670 --> 02:50:11,279 that's done with intention 4378 02:50:15,750 --> 02:50:13,680 that that's not an accident now they had 4379 02:50:17,429 --> 02:50:15,760 to back pedal the next one you know what 4380 02:50:19,670 --> 02:50:17,439 that wasn't a good idea we handled this 4381 02:50:22,309 --> 02:50:19,680 the wrong way and they changed it but 4382 02:50:24,309 --> 02:50:22,319 that original press release stands on 4383 02:50:25,990 --> 02:50:24,319 its own and we've got to think about the 4384 02:50:28,550 --> 02:50:26,000 time and place 4385 02:50:31,190 --> 02:50:28,560 uh where that uh 4386 02:50:33,269 --> 02:50:31,200 release was drafted and how that goes 4387 02:50:35,190 --> 02:50:33,279 through a chain of command that's not 4388 02:50:38,469 --> 02:50:35,200 done by mistake 4389 02:50:40,790 --> 02:50:38,479 it's it's simply not it's simply not and 4390 02:50:43,349 --> 02:50:40,800 like i said all the witnesses everything 4391 02:50:46,309 --> 02:50:43,359 all of that put put it to the side just 4392 02:50:47,750 --> 02:50:46,319 go to what the army airfield 4393 02:50:50,630 --> 02:50:47,760 released 4394 02:50:53,349 --> 02:50:50,640 and and the timing of it and where and 4395 02:50:57,750 --> 02:50:53,359 how we're talking about new mexico 4396 02:50:58,790 --> 02:50:57,760 our only atomic bomb wing in the world 4397 02:51:00,950 --> 02:50:58,800 right 4398 02:51:02,389 --> 02:51:00,960 no no that press release was not an 4399 02:51:03,590 --> 02:51:02,399 accident they knew exactly what they 4400 02:51:04,710 --> 02:51:03,600 were doing 4401 02:51:06,389 --> 02:51:04,720 so uh 4402 02:51:08,870 --> 02:51:06,399 continuing on 4403 02:51:10,870 --> 02:51:08,880 uh with chris's questions 4404 02:51:12,469 --> 02:51:10,880 uh you know talking about the possession 4405 02:51:15,030 --> 02:51:12,479 of materials 4406 02:51:17,990 --> 02:51:15,040 and he says perhaps that information is 4407 02:51:19,830 --> 02:51:18,000 deemed so sensitive that you and others 4408 02:51:21,910 --> 02:51:19,840 you know speaking to the air force right 4409 02:51:23,670 --> 02:51:21,920 that you and others are enjoying from 4410 02:51:26,070 --> 02:51:23,680 sharing it with the congressional 4411 02:51:29,190 --> 02:51:26,080 oversight committees so here is a 4412 02:51:31,349 --> 02:51:29,200 broader question for you the air force 4413 02:51:33,910 --> 02:51:31,359 are you confident that we have 4414 02:51:37,429 --> 02:51:33,920 sufficient processes in place to ensure 4415 02:51:40,469 --> 02:51:37,439 that at a minimum any sitting president 4416 02:51:43,429 --> 02:51:40,479 secretary of defense or dni director of 4417 02:51:46,389 --> 02:51:43,439 national intelligence would be aware of 4418 02:51:49,510 --> 02:51:46,399 such information or made promptly aware 4419 02:51:51,670 --> 02:51:49,520 if such information came to light 4420 02:51:53,110 --> 02:51:51,680 what about congress 4421 02:51:55,349 --> 02:51:53,120 and that is 4422 02:51:58,790 --> 02:51:55,359 so elegant right there the way that 4423 02:52:01,110 --> 02:51:58,800 chris mellon is is is pointing this out 4424 02:52:03,349 --> 02:52:01,120 that we need to go straight at the air 4425 02:52:05,030 --> 02:52:03,359 force and ask these very important 4426 02:52:08,389 --> 02:52:05,040 questions and issues 4427 02:52:11,110 --> 02:52:08,399 and again i hope that as you know under 4428 02:52:13,030 --> 02:52:11,120 carson and a few others have seems to 4429 02:52:15,349 --> 02:52:13,040 indicate i mean i hope that there will 4430 02:52:17,590 --> 02:52:15,359 be at very least consideration given to 4431 02:52:19,429 --> 02:52:17,600 trying to bring this before 4432 02:52:22,309 --> 02:52:19,439 congress and have you know actual 4433 02:52:24,150 --> 02:52:22,319 official congressional hearings 4434 02:52:26,070 --> 02:52:24,160 unfortunately though 4435 02:52:28,150 --> 02:52:26,080 i would also say and again the e-word 4436 02:52:30,710 --> 02:52:28,160 you use elegant i think that that really 4437 02:52:32,469 --> 02:52:30,720 is the best summation of chris mellon's 4438 02:52:34,630 --> 02:52:32,479 writing and the way he presents this 4439 02:52:35,910 --> 02:52:34,640 article he did he did a remarkable job 4440 02:52:37,429 --> 02:52:35,920 um 4441 02:52:38,389 --> 02:52:37,439 it was truly a pleasure working with him 4442 02:52:40,070 --> 02:52:38,399 on it but 4443 02:52:41,750 --> 02:52:40,080 as far as why you know would this be 4444 02:52:43,429 --> 02:52:41,760 with this information if it exists be 4445 02:52:44,870 --> 02:52:43,439 shared with the president with the dni 4446 02:52:47,349 --> 02:52:44,880 you know with the secretary of defense 4447 02:52:48,870 --> 02:52:47,359 with you know congressmen and women 4448 02:52:50,389 --> 02:52:48,880 i've often heard people say over the 4449 02:52:52,070 --> 02:52:50,399 years why would you share that 4450 02:52:53,429 --> 02:52:52,080 information with people holding temp 4451 02:52:55,429 --> 02:52:53,439 positions 4452 02:52:56,469 --> 02:52:55,439 do you think that would be the air force 4453 02:52:58,710 --> 02:52:56,479 response 4454 02:53:00,790 --> 02:52:58,720 i understand that that is our that you 4455 02:53:01,830 --> 02:53:00,800 know that's an easy conclusion for us to 4456 02:53:04,469 --> 02:53:01,840 come to 4457 02:53:05,910 --> 02:53:04,479 but do you think the air force 4458 02:53:07,910 --> 02:53:05,920 it's not a good conclusion and it's not 4459 02:53:10,150 --> 02:53:07,920 what we want but i think in in some ways 4460 02:53:11,670 --> 02:53:10,160 it's the reality now again there's been 4461 02:53:13,269 --> 02:53:11,680 much made of for instance statements 4462 02:53:15,190 --> 02:53:13,279 over the years like for instance jimmy 4463 02:53:17,990 --> 02:53:15,200 carter going to then 4464 02:53:20,309 --> 02:53:18,000 director of the cia george herbert 4465 02:53:21,590 --> 02:53:20,319 walker bush and asking about ufo 4466 02:53:23,590 --> 02:53:21,600 information and being told you don't 4467 02:53:25,190 --> 02:53:23,600 have necessary classification for that 4468 02:53:26,150 --> 02:53:25,200 but keep in mind at the time that he 4469 02:53:28,070 --> 02:53:26,160 asked 4470 02:53:29,750 --> 02:53:28,080 he was i think president-elect and had 4471 02:53:31,190 --> 02:53:29,760 not been sworn in 4472 02:53:33,269 --> 02:53:31,200 and he didn't have the necessary 4473 02:53:35,030 --> 02:53:33,279 classification having not been actually 4474 02:53:36,950 --> 02:53:35,040 sworn in as president 4475 02:53:39,349 --> 02:53:36,960 and so what bush actually asked the rest 4476 02:53:42,790 --> 02:53:39,359 of the story as paul harvey would say 4477 02:53:44,790 --> 02:53:42,800 was he asked bush asked uh if if carter 4478 02:53:47,910 --> 02:53:44,800 would keep him on in his administration 4479 02:53:49,349 --> 02:53:47,920 as the you know cia director and carter 4480 02:53:50,630 --> 02:53:49,359 said no i'm going to appoint somebody 4481 02:53:52,389 --> 02:53:50,640 else and so bush said well if you're not 4482 02:53:53,750 --> 02:53:52,399 going to keep me on then you would have 4483 02:53:55,030 --> 02:53:53,760 to go through other channels to get that 4484 02:53:57,030 --> 02:53:55,040 information here's what you could do and 4485 02:53:59,429 --> 02:53:57,040 he gave him some information but carter 4486 02:54:01,110 --> 02:53:59,439 was still never able as far as we know 4487 02:54:02,870 --> 02:54:01,120 to get access to that information but 4488 02:54:04,309 --> 02:54:02,880 again many have asked based on that you 4489 02:54:05,670 --> 02:54:04,319 know if a president can't get it then 4490 02:54:07,190 --> 02:54:05,680 who can 4491 02:54:08,550 --> 02:54:07,200 the other side of that argument is well 4492 02:54:10,630 --> 02:54:08,560 you know he's going to be out in four 4493 02:54:12,550 --> 02:54:10,640 years at most eight years it's a temp 4494 02:54:15,030 --> 02:54:12,560 position and you know 4495 02:54:18,230 --> 02:54:15,040 all discussion about uh redistricting 4496 02:54:20,070 --> 02:54:18,240 aside you know so are in theory congress 4497 02:54:21,510 --> 02:54:20,080 and senate seats so i mean you know are 4498 02:54:23,510 --> 02:54:21,520 you going to get that information to 4499 02:54:25,429 --> 02:54:23,520 somebody who may come and then go very 4500 02:54:27,190 --> 02:54:25,439 quickly whereas 4501 02:54:28,870 --> 02:54:27,200 the military 4502 02:54:30,389 --> 02:54:28,880 establishment the more bureaucratic 4503 02:54:32,309 --> 02:54:30,399 elements within both the military and 4504 02:54:34,389 --> 02:54:32,319 the intelligence community you know 4505 02:54:36,309 --> 02:54:34,399 where individuals can be appointed and 4506 02:54:38,150 --> 02:54:36,319 they may remain in a certain position 4507 02:54:39,590 --> 02:54:38,160 for many many many years 4508 02:54:42,790 --> 02:54:39,600 you know that seems to be where the real 4509 02:54:44,630 --> 02:54:42,800 secrecy is held i hope to your point to 4510 02:54:45,990 --> 02:54:44,640 chris's point that the air force's 4511 02:54:47,269 --> 02:54:46,000 response would not be no we're not going 4512 02:54:48,790 --> 02:54:47,279 to give that information to people who 4513 02:54:49,670 --> 02:54:48,800 are temp employees 4514 02:54:53,349 --> 02:54:49,680 right 4515 02:54:54,790 --> 02:54:53,359 but is it isn't it isn't uh 4516 02:54:55,590 --> 02:54:54,800 uh 4517 02:55:00,950 --> 02:54:55,600 the 4518 02:55:04,230 --> 02:55:00,960 under 4519 02:55:05,670 --> 02:55:04,240 uh the commander-in-chief 4520 02:55:07,910 --> 02:55:05,680 yeah yeah they are supposed to be 4521 02:55:08,790 --> 02:55:07,920 directed right right so can 4522 02:55:09,830 --> 02:55:08,800 why 4523 02:55:15,030 --> 02:55:09,840 doesn't 4524 02:55:17,670 --> 02:55:15,040 have the juice card 4525 02:55:19,269 --> 02:55:17,680 to get whatever information he wants out 4526 02:55:21,910 --> 02:55:19,279 of the branches of the military 4527 02:55:25,510 --> 02:55:21,920 including the air force and the ufo uap 4528 02:55:27,670 --> 02:55:25,520 issue did carter go to the wrong did 4529 02:55:29,830 --> 02:55:27,680 he went to the cia 4530 02:55:32,469 --> 02:55:29,840 should he have gone to the air force and 4531 02:55:34,790 --> 02:55:32,479 would the air force have to comply 4532 02:55:37,670 --> 02:55:34,800 what's interesting is that i remember uh 4533 02:55:38,950 --> 02:55:37,680 close to the end of his term obama was 4534 02:55:40,950 --> 02:55:38,960 interviewed 4535 02:55:42,790 --> 02:55:40,960 and he mentioned ufos many times during 4536 02:55:46,070 --> 02:55:42,800 his presidency but he said you know when 4537 02:55:47,190 --> 02:55:46,080 you see the files on the the jfk and 4538 02:55:48,950 --> 02:55:47,200 roswell 4539 02:55:51,349 --> 02:55:48,960 it's disappointing 4540 02:55:53,830 --> 02:55:51,359 but then of course more recently he did 4541 02:55:55,510 --> 02:55:53,840 a appearance on late night where he 4542 02:55:58,150 --> 02:55:55,520 acknowledged you know there are videos 4543 02:56:00,790 --> 02:55:58,160 of things that we can't identify 4544 02:56:02,950 --> 02:56:00,800 and he spoke about them as though he had 4545 02:56:04,389 --> 02:56:02,960 not only recently been following all 4546 02:56:06,070 --> 02:56:04,399 this like everybody else now maybe he 4547 02:56:07,750 --> 02:56:06,080 had and maybe he just spoke very 4548 02:56:09,349 --> 02:56:07,760 intelligently about it 4549 02:56:11,349 --> 02:56:09,359 and that and it was just a passing 4550 02:56:13,830 --> 02:56:11,359 interest of his 4551 02:56:16,150 --> 02:56:13,840 if i'm to read into this it seemed 4552 02:56:18,230 --> 02:56:16,160 to me as though obama had probably had 4553 02:56:19,830 --> 02:56:18,240 some limited awareness of this from his 4554 02:56:21,590 --> 02:56:19,840 time in office 4555 02:56:23,750 --> 02:56:21,600 but again you know i'm asking myself you 4556 02:56:24,950 --> 02:56:23,760 know if i'm a u.s president and i saw 4557 02:56:26,150 --> 02:56:24,960 all the stuff 4558 02:56:29,349 --> 02:56:26,160 that i mean has been released through 4559 02:56:31,429 --> 02:56:29,359 the foia process to civilians from all 4560 02:56:33,750 --> 02:56:31,439 the different branches of the military 4561 02:56:35,349 --> 02:56:33,760 from the intelligence agencies you know 4562 02:56:37,030 --> 02:56:35,359 and even the insinuation that there was 4563 02:56:38,790 --> 02:56:37,040 more that we haven't seen that you know 4564 02:56:39,990 --> 02:56:38,800 agencies like the nsa when we were 4565 02:56:42,389 --> 02:56:40,000 discussing the cause thing from the 4566 02:56:44,630 --> 02:56:42,399 1980s earlier right you know all that 4567 02:56:46,710 --> 02:56:44,640 would tell me as commander-in-chief wow 4568 02:56:49,429 --> 02:56:46,720 there is a there there 4569 02:56:50,950 --> 02:56:49,439 there's a huge there there 4570 02:56:53,910 --> 02:56:50,960 and i'm going to do everything within my 4571 02:56:55,670 --> 02:56:53,920 power to try and leverage my power as 4572 02:56:57,910 --> 02:56:55,680 the commander in chief during my tenure 4573 02:57:00,230 --> 02:56:57,920 in this position in the oval office to 4574 02:57:02,630 --> 02:57:00,240 try and get to the bottom of this or to 4575 02:57:05,110 --> 02:57:02,640 try and bring this to the public in a 4576 02:57:08,309 --> 02:57:05,120 way that is digestible and releasable 4577 02:57:10,230 --> 02:57:08,319 that will not affect national security a 4578 02:57:12,469 --> 02:57:10,240 real question i have is why that hasn't 4579 02:57:14,710 --> 02:57:12,479 happened yet 4580 02:57:16,469 --> 02:57:14,720 you know what is it i mean do do is 4581 02:57:17,910 --> 02:57:16,479 there pressure that is placed is it that 4582 02:57:19,349 --> 02:57:17,920 stigma 4583 02:57:21,429 --> 02:57:19,359 that governs that at the end of the day 4584 02:57:24,070 --> 02:57:21,439 well i don't want to be remembered as 4585 02:57:26,630 --> 02:57:24,080 the the little green men president 4586 02:57:28,230 --> 02:57:26,640 you know is there legacy is is are there 4587 02:57:30,230 --> 02:57:28,240 cultural issues 4588 02:57:33,030 --> 02:57:30,240 that trump all of that what what is that 4589 02:57:33,910 --> 02:57:33,040 what is that to me jimmy this is simply 4590 02:57:35,830 --> 02:57:33,920 put 4591 02:57:37,190 --> 02:57:35,840 potentially the most significant 4592 02:57:40,790 --> 02:57:37,200 question that 4593 02:57:43,190 --> 02:57:40,800 science or our military or philosophers 4594 02:57:45,830 --> 02:57:43,200 of any era have ever asked the 4595 02:57:48,150 --> 02:57:45,840 implications go beyond potentially 4596 02:57:50,070 --> 02:57:48,160 depending on what this is our own planet 4597 02:57:51,190 --> 02:57:50,080 but they certainly affect everybody on 4598 02:57:53,110 --> 02:57:51,200 this planet 4599 02:57:55,670 --> 02:57:53,120 that is that has got i couldn't imagine 4600 02:57:57,830 --> 02:57:55,680 a better contender for the greatest 4601 02:57:58,790 --> 02:57:57,840 issue of all time than this 4602 02:58:01,349 --> 02:57:58,800 why 4603 02:58:03,910 --> 02:58:01,359 is there so little traction well you 4604 02:58:06,309 --> 02:58:03,920 know i uh i learned a couple of things 4605 02:58:08,389 --> 02:58:06,319 uh from tonight's show from you and i 4606 02:58:09,910 --> 02:58:08,399 love learning and getting my knowledge 4607 02:58:12,389 --> 02:58:09,920 on one 4608 02:58:15,110 --> 02:58:12,399 you sleep like a bat 4609 02:58:17,030 --> 02:58:15,120 yeah number two you say meteorite 4610 02:58:18,389 --> 02:58:17,040 correctly say it 4611 02:58:19,750 --> 02:58:18,399 media 4612 02:58:22,790 --> 02:58:19,760 right 4613 02:58:25,510 --> 02:58:22,800 oh meteorite see you say it correctly 4614 02:58:30,150 --> 02:58:25,520 okay now now now look look at your 4615 02:58:33,830 --> 02:58:31,990 uh ladies and gentlemen he's holding 4616 02:58:36,070 --> 02:58:33,840 what appears to be guano so apparently 4617 02:58:38,150 --> 02:58:36,080 you sleep like a bat as well that was 4618 02:58:39,030 --> 02:58:38,160 gifted to me this weekend 4619 02:58:42,309 --> 02:58:39,040 media 4620 02:58:44,550 --> 02:58:42,319 is that a meteorite yeah it is a big big 4621 02:58:46,710 --> 02:58:44,560 head it's heavy man 4622 02:58:49,670 --> 02:58:46,720 it's it isn't that incredible isn't that 4623 02:58:51,030 --> 02:58:49,680 cool look at that sits right here man i 4624 02:58:52,389 --> 02:58:51,040 think about think about this think about 4625 02:58:54,230 --> 02:58:52,399 this really quickly i know that we got 4626 02:58:57,030 --> 02:58:54,240 to go but dude here's the deal 4627 02:58:58,950 --> 02:58:57,040 so little as 150 years ago 4628 02:59:01,750 --> 02:58:58,960 there were scientists who did not 4629 02:59:05,590 --> 02:59:01,760 believe that stones fell from the sky 4630 02:59:07,349 --> 02:59:05,600 isn't that right isn't that incredible 4631 02:59:09,510 --> 02:59:07,359 to think that there are phenomena that 4632 02:59:11,590 --> 02:59:09,520 literally fall from the sky and land in 4633 02:59:14,150 --> 02:59:11,600 our fields right 4634 02:59:16,070 --> 02:59:14,160 and that we can on any clear night go 4635 02:59:17,910 --> 02:59:16,080 out and look at the stars and observe 4636 02:59:19,750 --> 02:59:17,920 and see for ourselves to think that 4637 02:59:21,590 --> 02:59:19,760 people didn't know what that was and 4638 02:59:23,190 --> 02:59:21,600 many didn't believe that the little 4639 02:59:24,469 --> 02:59:23,200 stones we find laying in the field were 4640 02:59:26,230 --> 02:59:24,479 associated with those lights seen 4641 02:59:29,269 --> 02:59:26,240 streaking through the sky i couldn't 4642 02:59:30,950 --> 02:59:29,279 imagine a better you know corollary for 4643 02:59:32,950 --> 02:59:30,960 oh wow sometimes there are things that 4644 02:59:35,429 --> 02:59:32,960 people see that can't be explained but 4645 02:59:37,429 --> 02:59:35,439 with time and with interest and with 4646 02:59:39,990 --> 02:59:37,439 effort by scientists we unravel these 4647 02:59:41,910 --> 02:59:40,000 mysteries meteorites were mysterious too 4648 02:59:43,990 --> 02:59:41,920 and not very long ago remember that 4649 02:59:46,070 --> 02:59:44,000 ladies and gents 4650 02:59:49,110 --> 02:59:46,080 and i'm gonna uh i'm gonna leave 4651 02:59:52,630 --> 02:59:49,120 everybody with this quote uh from chris 4652 02:59:55,510 --> 02:59:52,640 mellon sums it up he says quote 4653 02:59:58,550 --> 02:59:55,520 the uap issue was a serious test of our 4654 03:00:01,510 --> 02:59:58,560 intellectual integrity and courage 4655 03:00:04,710 --> 03:00:01,520 perhaps even the ultimate test 4656 03:00:07,830 --> 03:00:04,720 although it is a stern test i believe 4657 03:00:11,429 --> 03:00:07,840 our civilian policy makers have the 4658 03:00:14,550 --> 03:00:11,439 courage and integrity needed to rise to 4659 03:00:16,550 --> 03:00:14,560 the challenge end quote chris mellon 4660 03:00:18,790 --> 03:00:16,560 yeah see
