Down the YouTube UFO rabbit hole !!

[Rastoff]

People keep talking about aliens picking up our radio signals. Even though they've been traveling for just over 100 years, it's unlikely that any race, no matter how advanced, would be able to decipher them. The aliens would just see it as noise.

It's the same for communications from them. We simply lack the technology to pick up anything useful.

Here is a link to the rather famous (in Roswell lore) mortician's personal account of the incident. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBOY5jrOGwA[/ame]

This link is to a rather extensive investigation concerning his veracity.

For faster than light travel, the answer may lie in Einstein's "spooky action at a distance," i.e., ******* entanglement. (Can't correctly spell "kwantum?" Pharr out!)

Title | symmetry magazine

(I am a big idea man, myself. Having done my part, I will leave the mundane details to the rest of you.)

Funny thing while Einstein was trying to disprove the Copenhagen interpretation, or the Bohr ******* Theory, Einstein's associate Podolsky discovered a "flaw" in QM, which became Entanglement. Then came the Bell Inequalities, John Clauser, and whoops, entanglement is real.

In response to your statement, entanglement won't work for the application you propose.

Edit:Why is "*******" (kwontum) being censored?

We like to think that life has to be more exciting than everyday humdrum.

I really don't doubt at all that other intelligent life exists within our own galaxy, and plenty of it, but the closest possibility is light years away. Proxima Centauri has a candidate planet, which is about 12 light years distant. 7.054 to the 13th power miles. It would be really neat if we found some closer in, but the distance would still be prohibitive until we learn to fly REALLY fast.

Of course if our galaxy with zillions of star systems turns out empty, we can go to our nearest galactic neighbor, Andromeda, which is 2.537 MILLION light years away, or 1.491 to the 19th power years away. If we wait around for four billion years Andromeda is supposed to come really close to the Milky Way. So close as to occupy the same space. Then they will be MUCH closer and in four billion years time, we may have invented some really fast rockets.

I'm counting the days...

Hey, call me crazy, but I don't think we should be attracting so much attention to ourselves.

The radio, tv, wifi, cell tower, radar etc emissions will be far too feeble by the time it reaches Alpha Kentaurus 4 ly away to be picked up by anything like we have here at least. Figure the power falls of by inverse square of the distance, so when the distance doubles the intensity is 4 times less. Triples, 9 times less. Interstellar radiation sources will by then have scrambled and jammed it into oblivion anyway.

I saw an interesting theory some time ago, purporting that the "aliens" are actually time travelers from our future.

Read Vintage Season, a science fiction novella by C. L. Moore. It's sometimes credited to Henry Kuttner, but it was actually written by both of them...they were a husband and wife writing team responsible for quite a few sci-fi classics.

A landlord rents a house to some unusual people who have come to a city to witness what they describe as one of the most beautiful seasons in history that also contains a cataclysmic event.

Won't say more about it, don't want to spoil it for anyone who reads it.

Party pooper! (Sorry, buddy, but don't try applying for chief engineer on my upcoming intergalactic, time warping, high torque, gravity defying, alien chick magnet StratoCruiser. I'm hiring only "can do" types for my crew.)

(******* "kwantum" is surely censored because it is a trigger word that gives the vapors to those few amongst us who are less than robust in our knowledge of particle physics. Or, alternatively, it may be just those durn aliens messin' with the forum software...)

 

[rwsmith]

Very respectfully......

But there reverse engineering alien technology. Some of the ufos flying is ours. I'm thinking since no human body could take the G forces as we understand them. The only way a human could do it is put our body in a gel or liquid to soak up some of the g forces. The aliens are suppose to be working with us at Area 51.

I was told by a guard on a Air Force base is what we see on tv is outdated the next best thing is in a hanger hidden away.

I just don't believe it. Jet planes were being worked on in the early 1940s and everything is a logical step obtained through engineering discoveries and applications of old knowledge. A terrific amount of trial and error resulted in disasters and loss of life. This magic obtained by consulting with aliens just doesn't float. We could say that the only way the Wright brothers got off the ground was because they were visited by aliens when other inventors/developers didn't have such a priviledge.

 

[rwsmith]

Are we talking about....

What's the best caliber for an space alien anyway?

(Someone had to ask it.)

...Predator, E.T. or the typical little grey people with big eyes?

I have to disagree.

Even if they (or we) couldn't decode and make sense of them, the transmissions would still be easily distinguished from random background noise.

The simple fact that they would have to be more regular, narrow band, and have some repetition built in for them to transmit information would distinguish them from random radio static.

You convinced me at chick magnet.

I drive a truck for a living, so my knowledge is limited being that I just find it interesting. I hang out in forums dealing in this subject and I'm pretty quiet among the big leaguers.

 

[ACORN]

Thing I've wondered about is IF there are aliens traveling across the galaxies in UFOs who is building them and designing them?
Imagine a UFO assembly line on planet X.
If it's all done by robots, who built the robots?
What about R&D?
The idea boggles my tiny brain.

 

[Muss Muggins]

Well, assuming they were/are using our technology . . .

Even if they (or we) couldn't decode and make sense of them, the transmissions would still be easily distinguished from random background noise.

Pro driver? Well now. Hmmm. That's different...

Laconic, too, it seems.... Forum member since 2003 and all, with relatively few posts... I like that! (An advantage on an intergalactic journey. Good! Can't bear yakkers.)

Awright. If ya got 100K+ plus accident free solo miles behind the wheel of your truck, you can apply for helmsman, 2nd class, on my intergalatic, high torquin', grafity defyin', time warpin', alien chick magnet Stratocruiser.

But, don't you be showin' up in leotards for the interview. We gonna have none of that leotard **** on my intersteller travels. No way. There is enough trial and tribulation in intergalactic travel without worrying about the crew member next to you wearing leotards...

I'll take it. No at fault accidents since '93 driving mostly within 100 miles of Riverside/LA. And what I lack in conversation I make up for in obnoxiousness.

Their tech and UFOs are easy to drive too.

As long as they bring beer, my landing pad is always open.

 

[Salty RI]

They drink beer in mass quantities.

And narfle the Garthok.

 

[BigBoy99]

If aliens can travel millions and millions of miles through space, why do the only people they contact, live in trailer parks?

 

[Salty RI]

Yeah and its a 2 AM and they are half in the bag, while out fishing.

This is how they get us to let our guard down:

After drinking that, you might even see Big Foot.

Has anyone tried the Asteroid Ale or Black Hole Bock? The Bock is really dark.

 

[Erno86]

I was lucky enough to eyewitness a double nighttime foo fighter sighting in 1976. I also personally investigated the evidence of a foo fighter landing sight in April of 1978, located on the outskirts of Fawn Grove, Pennsylvania.

I also have a purported photograph of a possible ET alien entity on YouTube, though I did not see the helmeted bipedal creature when I took the photograph in the summer of 1972, on the Western Shore of the Chesapeake Bay at Calvert Cliffs, Maryland.

Titled: "Space alien hiding behind fossil rock" --- on YouTube (located in the lower right hand portion of the photograph.

If I do run across a Space Traveler I hope I can trade my CCW for his CCW.
I'll even throw in some boot.

 

[bigmtnman]

Just as a follow up... An example of one the types of YouTube videos that I have been watching ....... [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsBQtq42Ab8[/ame]

He is a veteran and a retired LEO who also became a UFO investigator using his LEO investigative skills. I found him to be quite compelling and informative. He relates two stories from directly involved and credible people (his professional assessment) that are really eye opening.

 

[kmyers]

Like Fox Mulder I Want To Believe. I have been a believer since seeing Burt Campbell on the old show Soap get abducted, but the best part of the show was Chuck and Bob with Benson not far behind those two. Hard to not love a dummy(Bob) that bowled and was fluent in Spanish.
