Yet Again Mulling This UAP Business

Given the Congressional hearing that happened recently, I find myself yet again mulling what the fuck is going on with this UAP business. Again, there are only three options:

  1. It’s alien
    This seems to be the most unlikely of the three, and, yet, given what I saw with my own two eyes when that Hellfire missile just kind of bounced off the UAP…I don’t know. I just don’t know. It’s all very strange.
  2. It’s secret military (US or otherwise)
    Other than displaying abilities that if they existed we probably would know about somehow, I would guess the probe (or whatever it was) was some sort of super secret U.S. Military thingmabob. Or, maybe it’s a Chinese technology. Something like that seems to be the sweetspot, logically.
  3. It’s some plutocrat’s super secret plaything.
    This is a more exotic, but more realistic option. Rather than an alien probe, it’s just some supersecret technology that someone like Elon Musk has developed to sell to the highest bidder. You could even speculate — as I’m wont to do — that maybe the technological Singularity has been reached in secret by some plutocrat and this technology is the result.

    Anyway. Who knows. This seems like it’s going to be a lingering mystery, one that isn’t solved anytime soon.

The Curious Case of UAPs

There is a lingering mystery in the air when it comes to Unidentified Aerial Phenomena. I find it astonishing that we honestly have no idea what the fuck is going on with UAPs and yet the idea has — to date- gotten zero traction in the public imagination.

Given just a little bit of thought, however, this is kind of bonkers. There are strange, powerful objects zipping around the skies of the globe and we have no idea what they are or where they’re from? Why is no one freaking out about this? It’s all very strange.

The most obvious explanations — that either a state or non-state actor has come up with some very, very advanced technology — doesn’t seem to fit what’s going on. So, there is the third, seemingly impossible option: these UAPs are probes are of non-human origin.

If we accept that the seemingly impossible is, in fact, what’s going on…that really opens a can of worms. And, yet, this idea doesn’t seem to matter to the general population. The idea that ETs are using probes to take regular looky-loos at Humanity should at least give people…pause for thought?

But, no. Nothing. Nobody cares.

It seems as though the only way anyone is going to care is if there is Hard First Contact with little green men landing on the front lawn of the White House. It’s enough to make one believe that if the government did release what it might know about ETs that…no one would care.

Only space nerds would get excited, everyone else would go back to fighting over the culture wars.
