‘We are not alone.’ Talk of UFOs again on Capitol Hill months after Congressional hearing
Another type of meeting to discuss UFOs that won't include testimony under oath is set to take place Thursday, May 1, 2025, on Capitol Hill.

A meeting to discuss UFOs is set to take place Thursday, May 1, on Capitol Hill. But this event – described as a "briefing," not a "hearing" – won't include testimony under oath, but rather will be a public series of discussions with members of Congress about the unexplained objects, which the government now refers to as unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP.)

Notes on #UAP Discussions : It goes without saying that forward motion in research is important to preserve.We’ve seen for instance a previous admin change precipitating wipes of references and data on #ClimateChange from .gov websites. Not fun for researchers or the public that already funded the #Science. The short lesson is back up and disperse your data. Well duh.
Replication is a cornerstone in science. If you have a project here and there is a way of duplicating it over there, do that !

I saw a beautiful #meteor last night. A part of the #Aquariids shower.

It appeared as a bright light, right on the airport flight approach. At first I thought it was a #UAP because it was burning bright orange (classic Orb). But then I saw it traverse at least ~5 degrees of the sky on a descent trajectory. It developed tail, started burning green and just as I was about to pull out my phone (it was up that long) it splashed in a splosh of orange fragments and disappeared.
Pretty.

Then when I got home, I saw another orange burst, but it was with a corner of my eye, and by the time I turned my head, the show was over.

UAPs still pose concern, whistleblower Ryan Graves says

National Archives updated website; all UFO docs in one place
Congressional UFO task force meeting taking place Tuesday (Today, April 29th)
Pilots reporting unidentified object encounters 'on a daily basis'

"Americans could be days away from a major step toward UFO transparency."

We'll see...but I doubt it.

UFO sightings have been reported in Abilene. Do you believe something is out there?
Glowing lights, lost time and a test among witnesses.

A number of UFO sightings have been reported in Abilene and documented over the years by the National UFO Reporting Center.

It's rare to speak to folks who understand what's going on.
80 years of US psyops on this subject (#UAP) has made it nearly impossible to engage without folks tuning out or scurrying terrified into a dark corner.

Consequently, we as a species are totally not ready for the #disclosure.
And without preparing, it will definitely not happen on our terms.

Hence the term *CATASTROPHIC* Disclosure as billions of people realise that not only their gods but the entire fabric of reality is a fantasy.

1/2 Notes on #UAP Discussions : Why so much on this ? People strive in so many ways for keystones, lines of demarcation in life, past and future neatly divided. Well…we lucked out as it’s happened within our lifetimes. If you recognized it a sort of cognate launch takes place. The puzzle pieces rearrange themselves, a new family (sort of) rises to gawk at this new giant question mark. Literally #WTF ? We’ve had just enough people on the inside to draw us the outline of the thing, connect key…

Vatican secret files on UFO encounters demanded to be revealed after Pope Francis' death

The Vatican may have been studying the UFO phenomenon

Professor Diana Walsh Pasulka, a religious studies scholar at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington, argues that the Vatican archives contain numerous reports of paranormal events, such as nuns witnessing luminous orbs entering their cells and flying houses. Pasulka argues that these phenomena could be interpreted as UFO encounters rather than traditional miracles. However, she notes that Vatican archivists are focused on digitizing documents they consider a priority, leaving these unusual accounts aside.

Exploring expert figures in alien-related UFO conspiracy theories

This study investigates expert figures’ roles in alien-related UFO conspiracy theories, focusing on their impact on public perception through social media analysis. Utilizing a blend of content and trend analysis, we examine the invocation of scientific authority in UFO conspiracy narratives, identifying a reliance on expert endorsement to legitimize claims about extraterrestrial activity and government secrecy.

"And why hasn't one come down in a densely populated place where no denial is possible?"

There are multiple instances of #UAP manifestations in very high population areas;

Some more notable ones are;

24–25 February 1942 "Invasion LA"
For two days sightings of UAP were being fired upon by AA batteries.

1946 Sweden, Finland
Over the period of a year, over 2000 credible reports of very fast, cylindrical (today we may have called them Tic-Tacs) flying quite low at speed. Allegedly Eisenhower visited Sweden to find out more.

1952 Formations of UFOs were flying over the Washington White house for two weeks. In response allegedly this is when a formal treaty with one species was made by the Americans.

1954 Italy, Tuscany.
10,000 people attending a football match witnessed a number of UFOs low over the stadium. Game was stopped. "Angel hair/Glitter" fell and attempts were made to analyse.
Other UFOs were seen in that region around the time.

1986 "Day of the UFOs" Brazil
Multiple radar and visual sightings by tens of thousands of people. Jets scrambled.

1989-1990 Belgian #UFO Wave.
Over the period of 5 months the entire country of Belgium witnessed lights and very large triangular craft.
A report prepared by the Government said "Not ours, not from here"

1997 "The Phoenix Lights"
Thousands of people observing formations and a very large "V-Shaped" craft over a couple of days (artist impression image below) Videos and over 800 witness statements were made.
Notably Actor Kurt Russel who had a pilot license radioed his sightings to the tower.
The "Men in Black" were very active in suppression, disappearing the 800 records, one master video copy and the guy who took it.

2004 (released in 2017)
Multiple videos and sensor data radar tapes and targeting pods were taken of formations of UAPs interacting with Nimitz carrier battle group.
Of these the two videos ("Go fast" and "Gimbal") were released to public though many other are classified. This is the videos that spawned the latest senate enquiries and #disclosure attempts. Hundreds of witnesses, including 6 pilots and weapon officers.

2024-2025 New Jersey, England, Denmark, Germany. Multiple Orbs and Large Drones visible often for many hours. No Heat emissions, Our anti-drone tech has no effect. "Drone" swarms previously active in Colorado/Nevada a few years back.

Of course, they were all attempted to be dismissed as hysteria, flares, weather, parachutes, balloons, planes and jet exhaust.

However, it is worth noting that many of the observers were trained observers and radar and sensory data exists. The Governments have an active disinformation campaign effort to actively suppress the #phenomenon

Fascinating question;

"One thing I've never understood: if these things really are high tech flying machines made by a superior culture... why do they keep crashing and leaving debris?"

I am no authority, but I have studied the #UAP #phenomenon extensively and I have seen UFO(s) twice with my own eyes and probably two more times (the other two may not have been a UFO with certainty).

1. There are allegedly multiple species/#NHI visitors. Some may be barely above our tech, some may be on the decline, some are so advanced they are pan-dimensional.
At least one species allegedly lost the ability to make more vessels so theirs are ancient shit boxes.

2. Many of these are highly susceptible to high power microwave radiation, the Rayethon orbital radar installation in Oceania is called "The Bug zapper" because it can tighten up the beam into what is in essence a high energy beam weapon. In fact the Roswell crash reputedly was caused by our radar.

3. These are not combat assault ships, think of them more like Captain Cooks row boats or Farming (sic!) equipment like tractors. A low tech spear will deal with both.

4. The theory that I like especially is "key in the gorilla cage" analogy. The "crashes" are in fact a deliberate effort by a #NHI faction to throw a key into a gorilla cage. To see what the ape will do, or even their version of animal liberation activists.

5. A nuke is a nuke. The Starfish stratosphere nuke test reputedly brought down one that was following our ballistic missile tests.
There were three planes filming it and allegedly the craft crashed and was recovered.

6. Some of these are apparently multi dimensional. We have no idea what entering into lower dimension does. You are not operating in your own domain so even for high tech species, this may be a perilous and fragile journey. Like diving to the bottom of the ocean is for us.

7. There are recorded instances of UAP to UAP fights. One witnessed in my own town, with a crash that followed.

No easy answers, but plenty of speculation and evidence (though not proof as most people would agree).
