“Some secret too terrible to be told…”

I’m at a loss to grasp why this story isn’t front-page news. The Navy has now officially admitted that the UFO/ “UAP” phenomenon is a genuine mystery and the famous videos are not a hoax or explainable by any traditional means.

Here’s a mainstream TV report on the Navy’s official statement…

Here’s a link to the NBC News report from yesterday (9/18/19):

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/navy-confirms-videos-did-capture-ufo-sightings-it-calls-them-n1056201

Notice that the closing lines of this mainstream article seek to shepherd public opinion toward status quo denial:

“Shostak, a regular contributor to NBC News MACH, said in an email, “Now I think if the answer were easy, that would be known by now. But when I look at these things I see no reason to consider them good evidence for ‘alien visitation,’ which is what the public likes to think they are.”

“He said that in some reported sightings of unidentified flying objects other explanations, like birds, seem plausible.”

If you’ve been keeping up with the Navy’s UFO sightings since 2017, you know exactly how irrelevant and beyond absurd that last sentence is. And yet these are professional journalists. Their deliberate ignorance is mindboggling.

If you haven’t kept up with all this UFO news, here’s a link to several relevant videos:

Among them is this video. If you ignore the melodramatic delivery of the narrator, it’s the best video for hearing what the witnesses have to say and how they say it…

Some experts tell us there’s reason to think the most advanced human space technology has now slipped not only out of the hands of elected US officials but also out of the control of covert US groups such as the “dark” or unacknowledged projects of the Department Of Defence. The story is, years ago several subdivisions of the DOD placed our most advanced anti-gravity technology into the hands of private corporations to move it beyond legal discoverability by our elected officials whom they distrusted.

That would be understandable. Anyone would be nieve to trust those people with a box of plastic forks.

If the story is true, maybe all we’re dealing with here are global corporations and their proprietary technology. I hope that’s the case, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the story or a similar conspiracy theory accounts for a large part of the UFO phenomena.

But I doubt it’s the whole truth. I’m keeping my mind open to the possibility of an alien component. It seems prudent at this point.

And I hope Nick Pope’s fears of “some secret too terrible to be told” are not justified.

    • Thank you, Kirby0311. I deeply appreciate your blending of science and spirituality on your blog.
      This quote you posted from the great Max Planck is a real treasure, “As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clearheaded science, to the study of matter, I can tell you as a result of my research about atoms this much: There is no matter as such. All matter originates and exists only by virtue of the existence of consciousness. The mind is the matrix of all matter. I regard consciousness as fundamental. I regard matter as derivative from consciousness.”
      That’s the real answer to “the hard problem of consciousness.”

  1. I also hope Nick Pope’s comment is hyperbole. I was trying to think of what the most terrible secrets could be that would explain UFO secrecy, but I can’t really think of anything that just blows my mind or makes me scared. There are so many things we do know about the world that are godawful so I can’t think of anything that could be worse than other things we hear about in the news. Or maybe I’m not thinking big enough. Maybe the reason it’s not front-page news is because for 50 or so years we’ve been told it’s all nonsense and we’ve split into two camps – skeptics and non-skeptics – so we have been trained to dismiss or we don’t and this revelation isn’t really much of a revelation to non-skeptics. What they aren’t saying is that it’s aliens which would strike people to the core more than just admitting that it’s aircraft that doesn’t belong to our military. With how high tech today’s camera and radar technology is, why can’t we ever seem to get a decent image of these things? I watched the Fox video last night and was little annoyed I couldn’t make out a shape beyond a blurry circle, but I did gasp when I saw how it moved in space. Maybe it’s not front-page news because the media is run by those who don’t want to tell us too much? If they came out and said UFOs are silicon valley proprietary tech, I wouldn’t care and wouldn’t be surprised. But if they came out with some HG Wells level sci-fi information about time travel or aliens, the ramifications would be quite significant.

    • Thank you for your insightful thoughts. Just for fun, I have an sf story in the works now that explores a species from a Kardashev Type IV world that’s out galaxy jumping for the pleasure of eating creatures like us whom they find delicious and about as “beneath” them as cattle are to us in terms of intelligence and sacred value in the West. It’s actually a love story of sorts. But if I were trying to make it a horror story, I’d probably have the aliens interested in us for something we produce, the way we value bees for honey and pollination. In the US and probably other countries, I think losing all freedom and any notion of existential superiority would feel worse than a simple threat of death. Or try this idea: If there were aliens who could do something to us analogous to buying and owning our souls, that might be the ultimate downer, especially for materialists who would suffer the double hit of suddenly realizing they have souls and then facing the loss of them.
      I think you’re right about the media. They don’t want to tells us things that require data, thought and analysis. They make their money through outrage, anger, and fear of “the idiots” on the wrong side of the political aisle (either side will do).
