Maybe intelligent beings can instantly travel anywhere in the universe with minimal energy requirements?


travelling through space is either by

a) ejecting a lot of mass out the back of your vehicle (low energy requirement but too slow), or
b) deforming space between yourself and your destination (faster, but insane energy requirement)

tl;dr get fucked

Speaking of being slammed by meteors. Apparently there is mounting evidence that there has been a shitload more recent impacts than we initially thought. One as recently as 5000 years ago. And another around 12,000 years ago. They’re starting to put the pieces of our history together. And it might be that we have gone through many, many resets of society.

Check out Randall Carlson’s work...

He's been on Joe Rogan's podcast several times, most recently back in May:

what's more probable?

1)Is it possible this was man made? How does an entity carry on with such advanced machinery for over 50 years ( lets not forget similar early UFO reports from the roswell era etc. ) without any information about it being compromised? How can a closed system like that advance science and technology to such effect , independently from the rest of the world? Things simply don't work that way.
The above scenario seems very unlikely.

2)So now you have the "it's aliens" option, but that's potentially an even bigger pill to swallow considering what we know about interstellar travel, Fermi's paradox etc. But no matter how incredible that would be, this option has a lot of unknown variables essentially making it a valid possibility.

3)Assuming there wasn't an alarming level of incompetence on display that day, what happened is indeed incredible. Which leads me to believe that the report and the people involved are being disingenuous. The video is taken out of context. Government entities lying to the public while having a hidden agenda is not that incredible and it's nothing new.

Occam's razor will probably win this one.

xer0s, look at it this way:
a US fighter pilot spots something that cannot be identified. So we're looking to find a plausible explanation as to what the object is. The thing is, before you end up at "it must be aliens", there are dozens of other explanations that are quite a bit more plausible than "aliens".

Well I suppose believing in alien ships is a step up from believing in Trump. :olo:

Anyhow check out this thread.

https://www.metabunk.org/2004-uss-nimit ... ost-216442

You're willing to jump to some awful big conclusions from pretty much nothing.

How does someone like you with seemingly no critical thinking skills get along in the world? :dts:

Hold on, this proves it. The camera wobble not affecting the alien jet vapour must be part of their technology.

I’m not saying this particular case is something remarkable. I’m just saying it could be. And other reports could be. I just don’t want to dismiss everything altogether.

This particular case isn’t all that convincing. There are more credible events.

My favorite is the one that happened outside that military base in England. But even that could be bullshit...

Thing is, technology in other fields is advancing a lot faster than interstellar travel. So when it comes down to it we prolly won't be sending any humans in these things. There will be all machines one way or another doing our biding with the type of dexterity and effectiveness a human counterpart could only dream of. Which does away with a lot of the issues that come with babysitting fleshy bags of water in a very inhospitable environment.

As for the "being there seeing it with your own eyes" kind of travel / explorer fetish, I wager there might be a market for it down the line, but for the most of us the experience would be much easier to virtually recreate here in the comfort of our own planet... in some holodeck like contraption more or less.
