The biggest and maybe the most important news

[doc03]

of all time and nobody is discussing it? The government finally acknowledged UFOs are real. Imagine a hostile race with the technology they apparently have. Let's hope they are just searching for intelligent life on earth then move on.

1. Context? Link?

[Nictuku]

6. It was on 60 Minutes last Sunday

[doc03]

2. You need a link it was on every news report

on the planet!
NBC
CBS
ABC
Fox
Pick one.

[BootinUp]

3. real what?

[colsohlibgal]

4. Finally

The thought that it’s just us in the whole vastness of Space is nonsense.

How could they travel vast distances? Well less than 200 years ago on Earth the only ways to communicate was face to face or something written down and walked or ridden by Horse to the recipient.

Now look where we are technologically. Imagine a planet who has gone about a thousand years development wise than us.

Happy the Military finally came clean.

[Irish_Dem]

5. Military pilots have been talking about this for decades.

They know aircraft, and they see things flying around out there which do not match any known technology on Earth.

[Stuart G]

7. Aliens have been here for many years. Watching to see if we self-distruct.

They even made a movie about their being here... "The Day The Earth Stood Still" 1951.....

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0043456/

strange fact: Robert Wise who directed "The Day The Earth Stood Still" also directed ......
.....West Side Story, Sound of Music and Star Trek the Motion Picture..

[Greybnk48]

8. Yep. And Stephan Hawking said shortly before he died that

they would most likely be hostile and dangerous to us. If this has to happen, thank goodness T**** isn't in charge so we at least have an intelligent person at the helm.

[nuxvomica]

15. I think Hawking was mistaken

If there is an alien species that can travel all the way here, I bet they are nice folks.

[USALiberal]

9. Not important, UFOs are not aliens! Nt

[Calista241]

10. UFO doesn't mean aliens.

The U stands for 'unidentified.'

[Midnight Writer]

19. Exactly. "There are things going on that we don't know", but that doesn't mean aliens.

[Stuart G]

11. The possibilities are endless...far more than you can imagine..

As was pointed out...if a planet was just one hundred years ahead of us (in technological development)..who knows what those aliens have developed, or ...one thousand years ahead of us?

One more fact: There are literally tens of thousands of planets in our galaxy (maybe millions)...who knows what is there?

[Celerity]

28. around 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 planets in our observable Universe (and that is only the

ones orbiting stars)

10 septillion

[JuJuChen]

12. this is the latest distraction? lol

[BootinUp]

13. I'm waiting for an alien race to admit

That they created Bitcoin.

[JHB]

14. They've always acknowledged UFOs were real. What they didn't do...

...and have still not done, is validate wild speculation.

Unidentified. That's it.

Doesn't mean aliens.

[Captain Zero]

16. I think it is a military operation we don't know about yet.

Think stealth planes and Area 51.
Before you ever saw a stealth bomber and that rolled silently out of a cloud and past you, it was a UFO.

[JHB]

17. Yep. A bunch of 70s sightings were early stealth planes in testing.

Probably something similar happening here. Not necessarily testing by us, but that would be the way to bet.

[Drunken Irishman]

26. Absolutely agree.

[chowder66]

18. There are plenty of explanations like this video below using Maths

&list=PL-4ZqTjKmhn5Qr0tCHkCVnqTx_c0P3O2t&index=6

[doc03]

20. The government has been lying to us about UFOs for over 70 years

they always explain it away as swamp gas or ball lightening. I think they are getting us ready for the truth
in the near future. Some of the UFOs may be just drones but there have been just too many reports of abductions
that there are not some kind of beings visiting earth from some place. I know people will joke about it now and talk about
the War of the Worlds and such but there are too many planets out there that earth could be the only one with intelligent life.

[Celerity]

29. swamp gas

[hunter]

21. Them are some sad aliens to need vehicles.

The coolest aliens I've met permeate everything.

[Kid Berwyn]

22. Oh, well. Cubs win.

I’m with you, doc03. It seems most DUers are unaware of the importance of this news or want to continue keeping their heads in the sand. For those interested in learning more:

23. Why would aliens necessarily be hostile?

[JuJuChen]

24. YES

When Mars sends its people, they're not sending their best. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good aliens.

[Stuart G]

25. Hostile Alens?? Who could travel through space at unknown speeds?

Anything is possible...I think the aliens have already been here and checked us out..We are questionable as a
species of intelligent animals that could or could not survive. We are an If Planet.......

for definition of an ..."If Planet" see post number 11...............

If the aliens have advanced that far, then maybe they are not hostile...Maybe..I have watched Science Fiction for most of
my life....Is it necessary for advanced species to be hostile?..Nobody knows because the aliens out there have not
communicated with us....Why not..because our species is not particularly advanced compared to the aliens out there
who have visited us...You say that is not possible?

Well..................how do you know that is not possible?.....Are you one of those aliens who have visited us?

[Crunchy Frog]

27. I would need a LOT more evidence before buying that they

were from an extraterrestrial intelligence.

I'm not ruling it out, just saying that I need more evidence.
