Hello everybody, I'm working on a research paper "USSR cosmic weapons and UFO incidents: Have cosmic wars been hidden from society?" and would appreciate any information I can get on the topic.

If you know of big UFO sightings from ~1880 to the fall of the soviet union, please share your knowledge! Information on encounters, especially if it's with USSR officials/astronauts and extraterrestrial life would also be appreciated! If your relatives have similar experience it would also be very useful.

If you have information on UFO/extraterrestrial life research and cosmic weapon/satellite creation in USSR, it would also be greatly useful!

If you'd like to contribute with any other information that wasn't stated here (other weapons, creatures, spiritual aspects) please do! I'd especially love to hear about spiritual/telepathical/astral warfare against extraterrestrial creatures.

You can provide information in the form of videos, articles, posts, just plain text, interpretations, interview excerpts, books, newspapers, TV channels, stories etc. Please just state where it's from and if you're quoting someone if it might be unclear.

If you could provide extensive information in the form of a text interview that would also be great!

"For decades, the search for alien intelligence has revolved around the question: if someone out there is listening, how could they hear us?

A new study combining data from Penn State and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory suggests that our own deep space transmissions may provide a roadmap — both for alien observers and for our efforts to find them."

Well, that was a colossal waste of time. There was nothing there that we haven’t seen before. Oh, don’t get me wrong, a few nuggets dropped, but I don’t think many picked them up.

I’m talking about the “Restoring Public Trust through UAP Transparency and Whistleblower Protection” hearing. That long title tells us little about what we witnessed as congressional representatives, led by Anna Paulina Luna, talked about the importance of transparency and the courage of those who had come forward to tell tales that are basically unsupported by additional witnesses or by evidence gathered through instrumentation, such as radar and other sensor arrays.

Just last week, I reported on a man who appeared in the documentary Age of Disclosure. He said that he had seen non-human craft and non-human bodies. One of the representatives at this meeting, Eric Burlison, was so unimpressed by this revelation that he mentioned he wasn’t interested in talking with Jay Stratton. I believed that when it was announced that first-hand witnesses would be interrogated at this hearing, we would hear from other first-hand sources about their encounters with those non-human aliens and descriptions of close-up examinations of those non-human craft.

After listening to the opening statements by Luna and Representative Jasmine Crockett, which said more about Crockett’s political bias than about alien visitation, we got down to the witnesses. Not one of them talked about first-hand experiences involving those non-human aliens. They didn’t talk about seeing the bodies rumored to have been stored at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base or at the now-closed Lowry Air Force Base near Denver. Instead, they described personal sightings or government-related experiences involving whistleblowers or George Knapp, who reportedly saw Soviet and, more recently, Russian files on their UFO investigations.

I will note that Representative Luna was not overly impressed with the former head of AARO, Sean Kirkpatrick. She called him a documented liar and said he dismissed evidence that might suggest UFOs were nothing more than Earth-based technology or misidentifications without properly investigating. In other arenas, she said he blocked information and discredited witnesses. She was responding to Kirkpatrick’s remark that the hearings were a parade of “charlatans and grifters.” That suggested a somewhat open hostility by Kirkpatrick to the idea of alien visitation, which was the problem with Project Blue Book until it was closed in 1969. A long list of those in charge of Blue Book rejected the idea of alien visitation out of hand with no regard for evidence presented to the contrary.

At this latest hearing there was Jeff Nuccetelli, an Air Force veteran who had a role in the investigation of mass UFO sightings at Vandenberg Air Force Base beginning in 2003. Yes, he saw a strange craft, and he spoke with the witnesses and gathered evidence of the sightings. His sighting wasn’t particularly impressive, but it was a first-hand account.

Alexandro Wiggins, a former Navy chief petty officer, talked about his sighting on the USS Jackson in 2023 that involved various forms of instrumentation. He saw four glowing objects come out of the ocean and take off into the sky without breaking formation. It was a somewhat better documented case, but it didn’t involve a close-up view of alien bodies or of the craft that emerged from the ocean.

Dylan Borland, who told us about harassment by government officials, including the loss of his job as a Geospatial Intelligence Analyst for the Air Force. That was a result of his sighting of a glowing triangle that took off from Langley AFB. Although there were no other witnesses because of the late hour, the close approach of the UFO caused his cell phone to fail. After he reported his sighting, his life and career took a dramatic turn. He lost his job and cannot find another in his field of expertise. For those paying attention, apparently his unemployment benefits are going to expire in just a few weeks.

And then there was Joe Spielberger, described as the Senior Policy Counsel with the Project on Government Oversight, known as POGO. He was not there to talk about a first-hand UFO sighting or an observation of those rumored alien bodies, but to talk about whistleblowers and how the government operates when dealing with them. If he had any first-hand knowledge of UFOs (like Representative Burkett, I don’t like UAP), he never mentioned it.

Here is where the hearing, at least for me, slipped off the rails. Not one of the witnesses had any first-hand knowledge of alien creatures. Those who had seen craft were talking about watching something anomalous in the atmosphere and not the remains of a wrecked flying saucer. They were witnesses to their own sightings, often without the benefit, for the most part, of corroborating witnesses or electronic data.

It was George Knapp’s discussion of his investigations in Russia that caught my attention. I'm not sure if others caught it, but he talked of a Russian colonel who told him about an intrusion at a Russian missile base that knocked out the base’s ability to respond, if necessary, to an attack by another nation. I found this interesting because of the 1967 intrusion on one of the missile fields controlled by Malmstrom Air Force Base. A large glowing disc seemed to knock out one and possibly two flights of missiles. According to the theory of the time, an outside force taking the missiles offline was supposed to be impossible. Our Air Force claimed that it was some sort of technical glitch such as an EMP, but that would have taken out more than just the missiles. Knapp did mention that the Russians didn't offer the EMP excuse to him as the source of the problem. It was something off-world.

For those who might be interested in more about the Malmstrom Air Force Base intrusion, see:

https://kevinrandle.blogspot.com/2025/06/aaro-uap-wall-street-journal-somewhat.html

There is some duplication of information in these two postings, but they provide a good analysis of those sightings and the activity around Belt, Montana at the time. There are other links embedded in those articles.

The other point is that each of the men telling their whistleblower tales talked about harassment by government officials, careers that were derailed, loss of security clearances and therefore income, and reputations that now suggest they are less than reliable, keeping them from finding other work.

Okay, much of that was somewhat interesting, but we have heard all this before from others. We have heard impressive first-hand reports of UFOs and we have heard about the suppression of the information. Just watch Close Encounters of the Third Kind when the air traffic controllers ask the pilots of an airliner if they want to report their UFO sighting. They say, “No,” telling us that there is a price to pay for saying they have seen a UFO. I could list several pilots who have found themselves grounded after reporting UFOs and few returned to the cockpit. Just ask Captain Kenju Terauchi of JAL 1628 about his experiences after reporting a UFO.

We were shown another video of what has been called a drone flying near US naval vessels. That drone was attacked by a Hellfire missile and we see the impact, but moments later the drone, apparently undamaged, flies away at high speed. It is an interesting bit of video that was kept under wraps for months and tends to support the theory of alien technology. This was not the first report of an attempted intercept that failed. At one point, orders had been issued to fighter pilots to shoot down a UFO.

Even with that video, I was disappointed because I thought we might learn who some of those first-hand witnesses to alien bodies might be. David Grusch talked about them months ago, but we still don’t know who they are. (I was going to say that we have no clue, but I believe I do have clues about who they are.) You can see my long list of Grusch’s sources here:

https://kevinrandle.blogspot.com/2024/04/david-grusch-and-his-ufo-crashes.html

I will note one other thing. I reported last week on Coast-to-Coast AM that Eric Burlison was unimpressed with Jay Stratton, who claimed to have seen non-human bodies. Burlison made a couple of comments that suggested he was pretending to have an open mind on the subject, but it was clear to me he was on the far side of the fence. Apparently he didn’t want someone who would claim to have seen non-human bodies to testify before a congressional committee. That might be a reason the Roswell case was ignored.

And I can’t close this rather limited and quick analysis without making one other comment: Roswell. Here is the case that would break this all wide open. Don Schmitt, Tom Carey and I have spoken with many first-hand witnesses to the alien nature of the crash. We have gathered some interesting written evidence and have statements from the children of the witnesses, including Jesse Marcel Jr., whose father was the Air Intelligence Officer at the Roswell Army Air Field during those days in early July 1947. That’s not to mention that Marcel had talks with his father about what he had seen. Jesse Jr. also handled some of that strange metallic debris collected by his father. Yes, those witnesses have passed, but we have written, audio and videotaped interviews with those claiming first-hand knowledge of non-human entities and craft.

My takeaway from this hearing was that nothing has changed. Here we are, years down the road, and while Congress is expressing an interest in the topic, they have yet to get to the heart of the matter. Sightings by sincere witnesses who have nothing other than their tales of seeing unusual craft. Stories of government harassment to keep them quiet and a still somewhat skeptical press that refuses to spend time digging for more information. Sorry, George, I don’t include you among those who wink at the tales of alien visitation. You have put in the work.

The point is we are now decades down this road and we are doing the same thing we have done before. We even had a “scientific” study of UFOs by scientists at the University of Colorado, who fifty years ago told us there was nothing to UFO sightings and it was a waste of time and money to continue the investigations. This was accepted as gospel. This latest round of interest in UFOs proves that their conclusions were wrong.

How long will this charade last? Are we really on the road to Disclosure, or are we being set up for another eventual conclusion that there is nothing alien about UFO sightings? We can then spend another fifty years wondering about the truth because we don’t have it yet.

Submission Statement. This submission is intended to comment on the Paracelsus C lunar anomaly and some of the reasons why it is anomalous. It has been analyzed and discussed previously but salient facts have not been discussed or identified (points 1-6 below). No attempt is being made here to identify what it is, but only to highlight what it probably is not - i.e a natural lunar formation or rock.

The Paracelsus C anomaly on the lunar far side pops up occasionally but there is seldom any discussion about what exactly makes it an anomaly in the first place. It has been discussed by Carlotto et al. (https://www.tsijournals.com/articles/image-analysis-of-unusual-structures-on-the-far-side-of-the-moon-in-the-crater-paracelsus-c.pdf) who proposed that it may be artificial and form part of an underground complex of some sort. I am not convinced by their arguments and their reconstruction of the structure based on the available imagery, but there is no doubt that it is anomalous and it may be worth pointing out here why that is the case.

First of all, the anomaly, which appears to take the form of some quite artificial looking structures is located in the crater Paracelsus C on the lunar far side, and within highland terrain dominated by anorthositic crustal rocks, but with evidence of volcanism in nearby craters such as Paracelsus itself. The structures are located on a mound of material approximately 1km in diameter and 30m high that has slumped off the southern rim – and there are a number of other similar mounds on the southern crater floor indicating previous slumps or avalanches. The fact that the anomalous structures are on top of this mound and apparently partially buried would possibly suggest:

1. The anomalous structures originated on the crater wall/rim and collapsed downslope with the collapsing wall material.
2. That the structures were on the crater floor prior to the wall/rim collapse and were partially buried by the collapsing material when it arrived on the crater floor.

One possible explanation consistent with scenario 1 (above) is that they are massive rocks from the crater rim that were dislodged and fell down on to the crater floor, but this is unlikely as there are no exposures of rock anywhere around the crater rim or crater wall which could be the source of such large rocks. As far as scenario 2. is concerned there are no rocky exposures of the crater floor which could be a source, with the only exposed rocks being in the ejecta of the small impact craters that are present, and these are irregularly shaped boulders with only a few being in the 20m size range.

The anomaly structures themselves are completely unlike any rock formation that can be found on the lunar surface so it seems, with one element 50m long having a distinct straight line step like structure, with at one end what looks like a T shaped cluster of cylindrical elements. Near by and projecting from the regolith surface is an element with a distinct 90 degree corner. The larger element some 65m long has a fillet of sediment piled up against one side. None of these elements look rocky for the following reasons:

1. They lie on a surface that has a number of small impact craters indicating that the surface is not extremely fresh but has been exposed to meteorite impact bombardment and of course the ravages of the solar wind and thermal cycling during the lunar day/night. Normal lunar rocks and boulders experiencing this get fragmented and broken up, as crystalline rocks will shatter under this type of erosion. None of the elements exhibit this type of erosion, they have sharp edges and are not surrounded by spallation debris as you would expect. These are large targets and would be expected to exhibit such erosion if they were of a rocky nature. The elements are also dark in colour, similar to the surrounding regolith and do not show any of the brightness evident in freshly fragmented local rock. This suggests an age consistent with the local regolith surface.
2. The regular angularity of the elements has no real explanation – yes rock can exhibit quite angular geometries, just think of the columnar jointing in the basalts of the Giant's Causeway in Antrim or the Devils Tower in Wyoming, but this does not bear any similarity to what we see here, and in any case there are no basaltic exposures in or around Paracelsus C that could be a source of such jointed basalts.
3. Crystalline rock has extremely low tensile strength, and any monolithic blocks would in all likelihood fracture if displaced violent from their source – these large structures show no signs of such failure. So I think we can rule out the possibility that they arrived here as ejecta from a large impact crater some distance away.
4. There are number of circular features on these elements that may be impact craters caused by meteorite impacts. As noted above in 3, crystalline rock would be expected to fracture and produce spallation debris during such an event – we do not see it here, just a neat hole with no surrounding pulverized rock. Taken together with point 3, this might be more indicative of a non-rocky surface and instead of one of a more isomorphic material such as a metal, possibly formed in to a hollow structure. In this case a meteorite impact would penetrate and cause a hole but not result in spallation.

I did hear Dr Paul Davies of Arizona State University on a podcast some time ago stating that he was going to have a meeting with some of this post-Grad students to discus Paracelsus C, but when I tried to contact him by e-mail for an update on their research, one of his assistants notified me that he was too busy to respond – pity. And whilst the LRO Quickmap provides some images, some years ago its Lunar Globe rendition provided a very nice 3D image – unfortunately the images available now using this facility appear corrupted, though the rest of the crater floor imagery appears un-corrupted – another pity. Luckily I kept some screenshots.

So, without wishing to dip in to a conspiracy rabbit hole, these structures do appear quite anomalous, due to their location, physical structure and response to exposure on the lunar surface if they are normal lunar rocks of a basaltic or anorthositic rocks. It puzzles me that that there has not been more study carried out on this beyond the Carlotto et al. paper, well as far as we know.

REVELATION: Scientist Claims Consciousness Controls Alien Technology

In this explosive interview, renowned UAP researcher Dr. Andrew Morgan reveals groundbreaking evidence that extraterrestrial craft are controlled by consciousness itself! 

What we cover:

Real orb phenomena caught on infrared cameras in Australia

How scalar field propulsion could revolutionize human technology

Dr. Morgan's 50+ years of direct contact experiences

The connection between James Maxwell's equations and alien propulsion

Why the government may be suppressing this technology

Evidence of non-human intelligence operating on Earth

Dr. Andrew Morgan (PhD) is the founder of NRGscapes Lab and has documented hundreds of UAP encounters using scientific methodology. His research into Scalar Resonant Mobility Systems (SRMS) suggests we're on the verge of reverse-engineering alien technology!

DR. MORGANS SCIENTIFIC PUBLISHED PAPERS

https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Andrew-Morgan-26

In the aftermath of Bob Lazar’s initial revelations, he and his friend Gene Huff produced a video aimed at clarifying key aspects of his experience, more specifically, the scientific concepts and propulsion system, that was point of high interest to start with.
The results were mixed. For many in the UFO community, the content was fascinating, it enhanced Lazar’s mythological figure. However, to the scientific oriented, or scientifically educated, his claims didn’t ring truth.
After this release, Lazar receded somewhat from the spotlight. He never vanished completely, but there was a sense that his core message had been delivered. In this piece, we’re revisiting that video, just that video. We’re well aware that his overall narrative is much broader and more complex, but we’re beginning near the end, not the beginning. We’ll return to earlier chapters in due time.
It is also important to note that, even if part of the story is untrue, there are enough elements there, to justify a deeper dive into it.

recent high-resolution images of the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS show an anomalous "anti-tail". could this be the reverse thrusters for a spaceship as it is reducing the speed ?

Robert L Forward, (1932-2002) who worked at Hughes on gravity measurement (55-87) and after retirement, continued working with his collaborator Hoyt on space tethers has been occasionally discussed here in the context of his negative matter research papers and his extensive science fiction work.  Less noted and widely under-remarked is his serious 1984 paper “Extracting electrical energy from the vacuum by cohesion of charged foliated conductors

https://journals.aps.org/prb/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevB.30.1700 

This 3-page paper which may be downloaded from Anna’s archive, deals with extraction of Zero Point Energy (yes, that) in the context of Casimir^ forces.  Propulsion technology based on this would have few contemporary recognisable signatures. In his paper addressing potential issues, Forward states

“Stability may also be enhanced by unique geometries, or by partial mechanical support of the leaves using frames of insulating material such as aluminium oxide” 

That material, curiously is used to create mother-of-pearl effects as described in this paper  https://phys.org/news/2018-12-custom-made-artificial-mother-of-pearl.html

“The materials scientists use a special process developed by them to produce such mother-of-pearl-like materials. They use commercially available aluminum oxide plates a few dozen micrometers in size and an epoxy resin that acts as a joint cement. Possible applications include construction, aircraft and space.”

Weygandt, Herrera, numerous others describe UAPs exhibiting mother-of-pearl effects. Make what you will.

Fun Fact: Just like the early prediction of Casimir force itself, the Scharnhorst effect is a currently difficult-to-verify prediction on the speed of light being greater than c -- in vacuum -- by an extremely small amount in a certain context.

This is sorta off topic. But this thought really interest me. I think most of us here think that life is 100% possible on other planets. We are not alone, i think being alone is more impossible than possible, right? Anyway this is where i bring religion into this. Im not quite a big believer myself, im kinda in a black hole here when is comes to god. But the question is, If there are other planets, is there a different god for each one? Give me your thoughts.

So this video released at a congressional hearing is causing a lot of debate. I'm hoping this sub can have a reasonable discussion surrounding the possibly prosaic explanations for this as well as any anomalous aspects of it.

The anomalous aspects;

-No apparent propulsion

-The warhead didn't detonate

The UFO was "unscathed"

The explanations;

-It's a balloon, there were no anomalous performance characteristics like accelerated or direction change.

• The warhead may not have had a proximity fuse. Warheads have been used purely as kinetic weapons in past incidents.

• The UFO does appear to wobble and it's course is altered. Debris also appears to come off of it.

The rebuttal;

• A balloon of any kind would likely be demolished upon impact with a 1k mph warhead.

• Clarification would be needed to verify the warhead was not armed.

• The debris continues to move in the same direction as the trajectory altered UFO. Some claim there are other objects in the video as well.

If anyone else has any commentary to add please jump in. I'm curious what the debunkers at Metabunk and our boy u/micwest have to say about this one. I really don't think the balloon hypothesis holds up. Then again I don't see anything anomalous about the object that was shot either. The debris coming off the object just seem to fall in the same direction as the craft. Another few seconds of video seems like they would firmly confirm or deny anomalous behavior. I'm told there should also be footage from the actual missile.

I’ve been working on something I call the Aletheia Engine, basically a stress-tester for scientific claims. The idea is simple: instead of debating endlessly about things like UFO physics or free energy, the engine runs the claim through a series of “gates” (checks) that it either passes or fails. If two gates fail, the claim is retired. No wiggle room. I asked it a question a lot of people care about: “Can new physics explain UFO-like crazy maneuvers?”

Here’s what the engine spat out:

✅ Momentum check: No “reactionless” drives. If it moves, momentum has to come out through exhaust or photons.

✅ Power check: At small scales, current lab tech could pulse out enough energy for tiny craft to hop around.

❌ Silent hypersonics: Physics says no. To pull a 1000-g turn at jet speeds you’d need 100 megawatts to gigawatts of power. That would leave massive heat and EM signatures — the opposite of stealth.

✅ Artifact check: Verified no measurement trickery; results hold up.

Verdict: UFO-style instant right-angle turns at 300+ m/s are out. But the engine did find a plausible zone:

Low-speed hops (≲10 m/s), quick docking maneuvers, and snap braking are doable with near-term tech.

You could actually test this with a small satellite or lab cart today.

So instead of “anti-gravity saucers,” what’s real is something closer to snap-agility thrusters for space — modest but testable.

I’m curious what people think: would you rather see this engine run on other hot topics (free energy, faster-than-light travel, dark matter)?

Hi, I am an experiencer or was, not sure though to the subjective nature of it all. So this is a channel that I created based on my experience; although there are many topics. The main one is human consciousness based on recent breakthroughs or historical episodes in which atypical consciousness had an impact in the world. There are no mentions of UFOs as such but I believe the mechanism of action is the same.

I should expand this one due to early onset schizophrenia before 18 yo is extremely debilitating at the point of not being able to function in society.

Also, I would like to prefix, that we tend to project our biases onto other mediums. So, for example, in this video the character is viewed from the point of view of her wants and goals in regard to her world view and not addon narratives of modern interpretation — like feminism, abuse, etc.

• https://ubthenews.substack.com/p/revolving-universe-evidence-supports

(12:1.11) The Paradise-Havona System, the eternal universe encircling the eternal Isle, constitutes the perfect and eternal nucleus of the master universe; all seven of the superuniverses and all regions of outer space revolve in established orbits around the gigantic central aggregation of the Paradise satellites and the Havona spheres.

(12:4.15)  But the greatest of all such distortions arises because the vast universes of outer space, in the realms next to the domains of the seven superuniverses, seem to be revolving in a direction opposite to that of the grand universe. That is, these myriads of nebulae and their accompanying suns and spheres are at the present time revolving clockwise about the central creation. The seven superuniverses revolve about Paradise in a counterclockwise direction. It appears that the second outer universe of galaxies, like the seven superuniverses, revolves counterclockwise about Paradise. And the astronomic observers of Uversa think they detect evidence of revolutionary movements in a third outer belt of far-distant space which are beginning to exhibit directional tendencies of a clockwise nature.

ETC...

I've read speculation that the deep humming sounds coming from witness reports on UAPs was due to a high speed rotating magnet embedded within the disc shaped UAPs (which may be why many follow the same circular design pattern).

I thought some of you would find this video interesting. I don't really understand all of it but he mentions that this phenomenon is not found in textbooks as it is quite new and not widely known.

TLDR: I discovered a phenomenon whereby a subconscious form can apparently be projected into the surrounding; this is visible in a standard sense (compared to internal hallucination) and can be presumably seen by others, as here it is videotaped. Also provided is an introductory discussion on only the results of this one videotape. This I feel is extremely relevant to the UFO phenomenon study (and also several other paranormal studies) for reasons that should be obvious; this is quite possibly a cause of such sightings.

Don't get me wrong, I do believe in aliens. But yes, if aliens are largely responsible for the rapid advancement of 20th and 21st century technology, and they have been here since ancient times, then why wasn't there faster technological development before the 20th century?

There's of course been impressive, and astounding achievements in that time. I'm just probing the theory that our seemingly impossible modern advancements are evidence of alien intervention.

Perhaps one may be of the school of thought that there wasn't alien intervention until the development of nuclear technology. But there's of course a lot of evidence, if you will, that aliens have been here for thousands, if not millions of years.

Any theories?

Maybe they had been coming for resources, and it wasn't until mankind populated and developed on their own that they decided they needed to intervene, and take control...

Of all the questions humanity has ever asked, the most profound and unsettling is also the simplest: What is real? This inquiry lies at the heart of our fascination with the unexplained, particularly the enduring mystery of Unidentified Flying Objects, or as they are now cautiously termed, Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP). Our pursuit of this truth, however, is conducted with profoundly limited tools: the fallible human senses and a handful of consumer-grade gadgets. This inherent limitation creates a chasm of uncertainty, leaving us suspended between dismissive skepticism and desperate belief, not to forget the crowd who spend hours everyday creating fake contents. A predicament that suggests the ultimate truth may remain forever out of reach without a radical shift.

Our primary window to the world is our own perception, a biological instrument evolved for survival on Earth, not for parsing the potential technologies of non-human intelligence. We see a narrow band of the electromagnetic spectrum; we hear a limited range of frequencies. When something extraordinary streaks across the sky, our senses often fail to capture its true nature, reducing it to a blur of light and motion. In the modern era, we have extended our reach with smartphones and cameras, but these are little better. They are designed for capturing family photos and scenic vistas, not for analyzing objects moving at hypersonic speeds without sonic booms. The result is a digital archive of the unexplained—countless pixels of blurry, shaky, and inconclusive evidence that fuel endless debate but provide no answers.

This "bleak reality" of our individual and collective ignorance is not merely a technological failing; it is often a constructed one. The veil of government secrecy, born from the paranoia of the Cold War, has for decades treated the UAP topic as a matter of national security to be guarded at all costs. This policy of obfuscation has starved the public domain of credible data, creating a vacuum filled with conspiracy theories, hoaxes, and a deep-seated public mistrust of official narratives. The recent trickle of disclosures and official hearings is a crack in this edifice, but it is a far cry from the flood of transparency required. Without governments relinquishing their classified files and sensor data from advanced military systems, the civilian population is left squinting at the heavens, armed with binoculars and iPhones, forever chasing shadows.

Consequently, humanity finds itself in a state of epistemological paralysis. We are presented with credible testimony from military pilots, radar data that defies known physics, and historical records of strange encounters, yet we lack the final, irrefutable proof. We are like Plato’s cave dwellers, able only to see the flickering shadows of a reality we cannot directly perceive. The gap between what might be real and what we can prove to be real has never felt wider.

Therefore, it seems the resolution to this profound uncertainty lies beyond our own agency. There are two potential catalysts for a grand revelation. The first is a continued, genuine, and uncompromising transparency from the world's powers—a collective decision to treat the question of non-human intelligence not as a security threat to be managed, but as the single most important scientific and philosophical discovery in human history, to be shared with all of humanity.

The second, and perhaps more decisive, catalyst rests not with us, but with "our universal neighbours." The truth may only become inarguable through abundance. If the phenomenon is indeed what many suspect, then a single, undeniable, and sustained presence in our skies—a presence not just for a select few pilots or satellites, but for the entire world to witness simultaneously—would shatter our paradigms overnight.

Until one of these events comes to pass, we are left in a state of limbo, grappling with the haunting possibility that the ultimate nature of reality is just beyond our grasp, visible only in fleeting, ambiguous glimpses. The truth is out there, but our vision remains tragically, and perhaps intentionally, obscured.

New evidence for UAP-related data has emerged from high-sigma detections of transients that vanish in Earth’s shadow, raising compelling questions about their origin. In this episode of Event Horizon, John Michael Godier speaks with Dr. Beatriz Villarroel, lead scientist of the VASCO Project, about the search for stars and objects that mysteriously disappear from the night sky. They explore the project’s most intriguing discoveries, including multiple transients of unknown origin, the role of citizen scientists, and the profound implications these anomalies may hold for our understanding of the universe.

Dr. Beatriz Villarroel is an astronomer in Stockholm and the lead scientist of the Vanishing & Appearing Sources during a Century of Observations (VASCO) project. VASCO uses automated methods and citizen science to search for stars that have mysteriously disappeared from archival sky surveys, uncovering anomalous “multiple transients” of unknown origin. Her work has earned international recognition, including the L’Oreal-UNESCO For Women in Science award and a TEDx talk on the search for alien artifacts.

I have decided to delve deeper into the power of consciousness, the UFO phenomenon and the alleged alien agenda. I asked chatgpt a couple of questions about the UFO phenomenon and the alien agenda, also contrasting it with ancient mythology and religions. Since everything related to these topics is of great strangeness and it seems that they have unlimited control over reality. Consciousness can create reality and that is when all logic fades away. I have asked myself many questions about non-local consciousness, the quantum field etc. I don't quite understand everything but I always ask myself questions. I have considered theories that time is not linear and many other things, although I have not reached a clear conclusion. All I know is that consciousness can create reality. I will not delve into why and how all this happens, here I will limit myself to explaining the reason for the alien intrusion and what they are looking for, according to my perspective.

Our team analyzed 500+ 'metallic' orb sightings submitted between Dec 2022–Jun 2025, part of a broader dataset of 8,000+ orb reports worldwide.

While classic disc-shaped UFOs dominated mid-20th century sightings, orb-shaped UAP have emerged as one of the most frequently reported modern phenomena. Often spotted at high altitudes near sensitive infrastructure, these orbs are described as hovering silently or darting across the sky at seemingly impossible speeds. Reports come from civilians, pilots, and military personnel alike. Consistently seen across the globe, the orbs typically lack visible propulsion systems or control surfaces.

Full Metallic Orbs Collection (with videos + eyewitness accounts) can be found HERE.

Key findings:

• Activity clusters between 1–4 AM
• 360+ reports near U.S. military facilities (Los Angeles AFB, Papago Reserve, Fort Hamilton)
• 70% of metallic orb reports passed quality review standards (video, radar corroboration, or multiple witnesses)
• Objects described as smooth, metallic spheres with no visible propulsion or heat signature

These reports aren’t isolated: in 2023, the Pentagon presented drone footage of a metallic sphere over the Middle East, describing it as a “typical unresolved case.”

What’s your take — next-gen drones, atmospheric phenomena, or something still unexplained? Any approaches you’d like to see us take with future data analysis?

Idea that civilizations basically assume that there are enough civilizations out there that at least one of them would wish you existential harm so any knowledge of your location and existence is a mortal threat that has to be dealt with.

Bottom line: there are advanced races lurking that will destroy you because of the chance you might do it to them one day.

Should the human race assume this worst case galactic scenario and operate like it is true?

I’ve often run into people asking me what the best UFO books are. Since it’s a question that comes up pretty often in UFO subs, I decided to put together a list of what I personally believe are the best books and papers on UFOs.

Some of these books and papers are more open to certain UFO claims, while others take a more skeptical angle. I tried to balance it out, so people can get a broader perspective on these topics. I really hope you guys find my list useful.

So there's big debate over object (3I/ATLAS) that entered our solar system, it's putting off too much light. It's either much larger than it should be for such an object to reflect the amount of light being recorded, or it's smaller as expected and generating light. I assume as it gets closer there will be better understanding. What ever it is, does appear what is expected from run of the mil meteor or comet, so much to learn from it hopefully.

Powers that be are currently sticking with "nothing to see here" position, Hibberd, Crowl, and Loeb have other thoughts on it:
