UFO's


That was good video.

Director of AARO Jon Kosloski:
It was good to see him explain the released videos and explain why they were released as not UAP (35mins) including the infamous "Go-Fast" video and the "trans-medium craft" as known limitations of the equipment and/or pilots eyes being deceived.

I like that he spoke a lot about scientific method of information gathering and known biases. The upcoming tools and data releases planned were interesting, I think I'd get into reading that data in it's non-bias form, rather than that sensational News Nation crap**

I hope some of the believers watch that and are educated.

Bad parts, NtDG is like a disruptive hyper-active toddler, loves his own voice and jokes, annoying AF.

**whatever happened to that man who airlifted an Alien Egg, nothing really came of that despite the hype from News Nation of real alien craft caught on film.

Jake Barber. Something about him feels very off to me.
 
Fact versus fiction ; in many films we find that the aliens travel at the speed of light. I Googled "what happens if a spaceship travelling at the speed of light hits a rock ?".

If a spaceship traveling at the speed of light hit a piece of rock, the resulting collision would be catastrophic, creating an explosion of energy comparable to a large nuclear bomb, as the object's mass and kinetic energy become immense at those speeds. This interaction would vaporize both the rock and the ship, producing hard radiation and subatomic particles that could further propagate as secondary radiation. However, traveling at the speed of light is physically impossible for anything with mass according to Einstein's theory of special relativity.
Why it's impossible:
Infinite Mass: As an object with mass approaches the speed of light, its mass increases dramatically. To reach the speed of light, its mass would become infinite, requiring an infinite amount of energy to accelerate it.
What would happen if it were almost at light speed:
Catastrophic Energy Release: Even a tiny particle like a grain of sand, traveling at near light speed, would have the kinetic energy of a large nuclear explosion due to the equation E=mc².
Vaporization and Radiation: The impact would instantly vaporize the rock and the front of the ship, creating an expanding cloud of superheated vapor and radiation.
Subatomic Particle Production: The immense energy would also break apart subatomic particles, releasing high-energy radiation and subatomic particles that could then go on to damage other matter they encounter.
In summary:
The event would not be a simple collision but an enormous energy release.
The spaceship and rock would be obliterated into a shower of radiation and particles.
The premise of a ship traveling at light speed and hitting something is itself a theoretical impossibility.

^ That's why the USS Enterprise has deflector shields. 😉 Gene Roddenberry thought of everything.

Except that the Enterprises mass would be nearly infinite so Scotty would need an infinite number of Dilithium Crystals to power it whereas he usually struggles to find 3 or 4.

AI Overview

The Highest Warp Factor In Star Trek Explained
The original USS Enterprise traveled at a standard maximum cruising speed of warp 6 but had a "never exceed" speed of warp 8. Using the cubic warp scale common at the time, warp 8 was equivalent to 512 times the speed of light. While the ship was occasionally pushed to faster speeds, doing so risked damaging the ship.
Warp Speed Basics
Warp Factor 1: The speed of light.
Cubic Warp Scale: Warp factor "n" was equal to "n³" times the speed of light.
Maximum Cruise: Warp 6 was considered the safe, standard maximum cruising speed for the Constitution-class starship, representing 216 times the speed of light.
Maximum Speed: The absolute maximum safe speed was warp 8, equivalent to 512 times the speed of light.
Pushing the Limits: The Enterprise's warp engines could be pushed beyond warp 8 for short periods, but this was risky and would cause stress and potential damage to the ship's systems, as noted by the engineering crew.

Good point.

Has there been any press release yet? The main sources are keeping quiet, so far.

There's data on 3I/Atlas dropping day by day now. Its now blue in colour which is a big surprise and still as yet no visible comet tail, there was also data released to suggest it had changed acceleration. As it comes from behind the sun it will come into range of earth based telescopes soon.

NASA haven't made any statements and are still to publish any images from its HiRise camera which will have been taken when it passed Mars around 4 weeks ago.

A change that has occurred recently which might be inconsequential but in September a presidential Executive Order designated NASA’s primary function as tied to “intelligence or national security” type work.

This is a change given NASA’s traditional civilian science & exploration role.

Remember this time last year when the mass hysteria event of drones came about, solely from people who approached it from the point of view of ignorance.

I think this should happen but it hasn't, oooooh isn't that suspicious

It's the argument from ignorance logical fallacy, stop talking/encouraging this type of shite @skullmeister

Ahh my resident stalker returns.

Just forget about tagging me in any of your future posts, I can tell you are angry and I have no interest in exchanging any posts with you as you are always out to argue and generally become aggressive. Very odd behavior.
