One approach which has been mentioned by several sources is that, in the face of alien technology which–given current scientific theories and knowledge–is impossible to understand or to even replicate, the strategy is to work on reverse engineering for some specific amount of time, and if no real progress can be made, to put the alien technology aside for a period of years and, then, to bring it out and start to work on it again–hoping that the scientific progress in the intervening years will make some understanding and breakthroughs possible, and to keep repeating the cycle hoping that, eventually, some breakthrough will occur.

Dolan, by the way, has been studying the UFO phenomenon for more than 30 years, has written several books about the UFO phenomenon, among them well a well regarded series of books chronicling the history of the Federal government’s involvement with UFOs, and is not some wild-eyed, arms windmilling, ranting, crazy type, but from what I have observed, seems to be be a very intelligent, rational, very articulate, well-spoken, and well-informed person.

If such a breakaway civilization did exist, it would certainly have, to coin a phrase, “every incentive in the world” to keep everything about UFOs and their activities as secret as possible, and the actual authorities and the public uninformed, in the dark, confused, and misdirected. *

So, if some of the UFOs we see flying around are not actual aliens but ships–alien reproduction vehicles? from a breakaway civilization, what kind of interactions do the members of this supposed breakaway civilization have with the real aliens?

This has been kicking around for decades. One would think that if some nation had successfully done so, we would see some huge discontinuous jumps in technology, particularly related to air/space craft. Possibly even world-dominating weapons.

However, while we have developed tech that would look like magic to humans 500 years ago, everything I know of — like semiconductors and computers — have human pedigrees.

(Corrected) Analyzing UFO Misinformation – An Intelligence Approach – Ryan McBeth

No timestamps are available, so here is his summary and sources;

“Based on the analysis, I believe that there is almost no chance (a 0-5% chance) that intelligent life has visited Earth.
1. There seems to be a scarcity of life.
2. Earth may be difficult to detect.
3. The motivation of an alien to travel to Earth may be limited to defense – which means that the only reason we are alive as a species is that we havn’t been visted.

Water off a duck. Whack, whack.

Knowing how to blockquote the content from Ryan McBeth would be handy, but it’s not my day job.

If we have, indeed, had possession of UFOs, and have been trying to reverse engineer them,—for some 80 years now— what progress has been made?

Some people talk about there being “alien reproduction vehicles,” which presumes that we have, indeed, been able to reproduce—if not to understand—some level of alien technology.

But, I have no idea if this is true.

However, it has been said that, in order to keep these crash retrievals and reverse engineering programs so secret, the pool of scientists who have been able to get high enough clearance to work on this reverse engineering effort has been very limited, which might have had the result of severely limiting progress.

Stanford scientist Dr. Garry Nolan has pointed out that allowing the scientific community, and especially it’s best minds, to work on this problem is likely to result in a lot more and faster progress.

1 Unexpected Way Ukraine’s Maritime Drones Are Influencing Warfare – H I Sutton

Ukrainian marine drones attack the Sevastopol harbor and the Kerch Straits bridge. What’s not to like, eh Vlad?

A few days ago, he held forth on what his sources are saying on Putin’s War in Ukraine with The Times podcast.

First, touch and go negotiations have been held intermittently.

But now war exhaustion in both sides has set in. Thus, another winter at war us off the table.

Fox’s remaining interview outlines a settlement plan that neither side could embrace — until now and soon to come, he claims.
