1
00:00:05,510 --> 00:00:03,350
in 2023 what does credible evidence of

2
00:00:07,610 --> 00:00:05,520
ET look like

3
00:00:10,129 --> 00:00:07,620
well I think

4
00:00:11,810 --> 00:00:10,139
I don't I don't actually know

5
00:00:13,249 --> 00:00:11,820
um for the simple reason that I don't

6
00:00:16,730 --> 00:00:13,259
know what

7
00:00:18,710 --> 00:00:16,740
an ET might look like which is also a

8
00:00:20,570 --> 00:00:18,720
really boring answer but um

9
00:00:23,390 --> 00:00:20,580
I mean what I would want to see are

10
00:00:25,670 --> 00:00:23,400
observations again made with instruments

11
00:00:28,550 --> 00:00:25,680
that were calibrated for the purposes

12
00:00:30,830 --> 00:00:28,560
that they were being used for

13
00:00:33,170 --> 00:00:30,840
um you know multi-spectral observations

14
00:00:36,590 --> 00:00:33,180
of the same object potentially you know

15
00:00:38,510 --> 00:00:36,600
made by multiple people where we have

16
00:00:41,690 --> 00:00:38,520
data from sensors that matches

17
00:00:43,490 --> 00:00:41,700
eyewitness reports and then after that

18
00:00:46,010 --> 00:00:43,500
that's just the beginning right so

19
00:00:47,690 --> 00:00:46,020
that's that's step one and then after

20
00:00:49,549 --> 00:00:47,700
that you go and you interrogate all of

21
00:00:52,850 --> 00:00:49,559
that and say well

22
00:00:55,130 --> 00:00:52,860
in the search for life beyond Earth

23
00:00:58,069 --> 00:00:55,140
um you know life is the hypothesis of

24
00:00:59,689 --> 00:00:58,079
Last Resort you have to systematically

25
00:01:01,310 --> 00:00:59,699
rule out everything else that something

26
00:01:03,950 --> 00:01:01,320
could possibly be

27
00:01:05,750 --> 00:01:03,960
before you look at that answer and so

28
00:01:08,149 --> 00:01:05,760
you know what else could this possibly

29
00:01:10,969 --> 00:01:08,159
be what we've seen

30
00:01:12,890 --> 00:01:10,979
um you know even during even the meeting

31
00:01:14,750 --> 00:01:12,900
um we saw some videos that looked like

32
00:01:19,190 --> 00:01:14,760
they were showing objects behaving very

33
00:01:20,810 --> 00:01:19,200
very weirdly but the explanations were

34
00:01:23,090 --> 00:01:20,820
you know this is just the way that the

35
00:01:24,469 --> 00:01:23,100
sensor was moving or this object looks

36
00:01:27,410 --> 00:01:24,479
like it's moving really quickly because

37
00:01:30,230 --> 00:01:27,420
the plane that was looking at it is

38
00:01:32,929 --> 00:01:30,240
going 430 miles an hour so that you know

39
00:01:35,030 --> 00:01:32,939
the sensor is moving really quickly

40
00:01:36,890 --> 00:01:35,040
um so can we rule out sensor artifacts

41
00:01:38,569 --> 00:01:36,900
can we rule out like what what do we

42
00:01:42,050 --> 00:01:38,579
need to rule out before we can say all

43
00:01:43,190 --> 00:01:42,060
right like we have landed at a point

44
00:01:46,550 --> 00:01:43,200
where
