What They Know about Us
As the U.S. military and scientific groups continue trying to learn about UAP, maybe we should consider what The Phenomenon could already know about us.
We know that TV transmissions escape the Earth traveling at the speed of light. It makes for an easy joke: could extraterrestrial civilizations be forming opinions about humanity based on watching Howdy Doody, The Ed Sullivan Show, and I Love Lucy? If so, then clearly they’d decide there are no signs of intelligent life on this planet.
Don’t laugh too quickly. Aliens may not be sitting around their living rooms on their home planets catching up on our old sitcoms. But based on plausible evidence, one working theory these days involving some unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) currently being observed in our skies is that it could represent non-human intelligence from somewhere that isn’t exactly here.
The reports include foo fighters at the end of the Second World War, ghost rockets in Scandinavia a year later, flying saucers around the world the year after that, Unidentified Flying Objects beginning in the 1950s, and leading up to the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena frequently discussed here in the new millennium.
