UFO Documentaries

Why wouldn't the news media want to investigate something as important as this, if they really thought there was something to it? And the FAA did investigate the JAL "sighting" you're talking about. Their conclusion was that the so-called object HADN'T been tracked on radar after all. In fact, other aircraft in the area didn't see the thing, which was supposed to be larger than an aircraft carrier. I don't know what the pilot actually saw, but there was no confirmation of it. http://badufos.blogspot.com/search?q=jal+ufo
And so, the debunking machines grinds into action.... What about the radar data? Don't tell me, you just don't think there are any genuine cases, do you? Has there been any objective evidence of "genuine" cases? If so I must have missed it. Maybe you can direct me to the actual evidence.

Some good documentaries on Netflix are “Unacknowledged” and “Patient Seventeen”. In the first one, Steven Greer is unfortunately naively optimistic about the intentions of extraterrestrials here despite the evidence and testimony he’s gathered from government/military personnel that supports their existence. “Patient Seventeen” is more unbiased (though trying too hard to be mysterious) and shows some real hard evidence of E.T. implants in a man’s leg removed by surgery and analyzed in labs.

With any evidence though, we need to be able to make sense of what it means. The only documents out there that fully explain my experience of two sightings and personal mental disruption are the Allies of Humanity Briefings which are available for free here: alliesofhumanity.org

I watched the vid. I agree with your thought that the narratives created by the people of Capilla serve the same function as a religion.

I think it is a rather universal phenomena that people create and/or adopt narratives to fit their naturally occurring superstitious behavior – whether that takes the form of established religious narratives or other kinds of supernatural narratives.

I think that we humans tend to be attracted to supernatural narratives. e.g., I enjoy epic fantasy stories such as the LOTR and GOT and science fiction stories. But I understand that they are fantasy. Some people enjoy believing that their fantastic narratives of the supernatural or science fiction are REAL.

In a nutshell, I would say they are full of shit, so to speak, in that those people lack intellectual integrity. But they and others certainly do provide a market for these sorts of stories and for your documentaries.

Long time subscriber, first post.

For the heck of it I tried out the new Netflix series Unsolved Mysteries, in particular episode 5, “Berkshires UFO”. Typical for “documentaries” of this type, it is around 99% uncritical (I have no desire to watch any other episodes in the series). The documentary claims that there were multiple alien abductions there, all on or about on September 1 1969.

Has there ever been a skeptical examination of the case?

Hi,

Does anyone have the video of Boy Bushman which uploaded on youtube, which is about aliens and it is about 40 minutes(as I remember). After uploading this he died after 2-3 weeks(as i know he was ill). If I am not wrong this video was uploaded in 2014. I watched this video on youtube. But in several month it was deleted. Then reuploaded low quality and short video. But I am looking good quality original video.

Eventually the documentary dedicated to the Ariel School in Zimbabwe will be released. That incident along with the Australian school encounter are good due to so many witnesses. The subject is incredibly difficult to deal with for a number of reasons. One of which is the ridicule factor, and the amount of lunatics it attracts, the hoaxes etc. But for me personally, the close encounter I had literally put me in shock. It took me years to come to terms with it, and then comes the obsession. It’s not easy to experience something and then not be able to talk about it because it is so incredible and most people think its BS. it’s not. Believe it or not. It’s real. I can’t say what they are or where they’re from, but it’s a real thing people.

I wonder if Gorillas and Chimpanzees see humans as alien visitors? We certainly have a lot of aircraft that our distant cousins would consider UFOs.

Why are extraterrestrials often depicted / described as a type of humanoid?

It is an indication of convergent evolution at a galactic scale?

 

Why are extraterrestrials often depicted / described as a type of humanoid?
I have heard several reasonable models of advanced evolutionary efficient survival mechanisms in an omnivorous migrating hunter/gatherer.

a) Quadrapods with bipedal motion leaves one set of limbs for carrying and tool manipulation.

b) A minimum of two eyes, ears, nose placed as high as possible allows for stereoscopic long distance vision, audition, scenting.

c) Bipedal motion allows for long distance running with a minimum of energy expenditure

d) A large central brain in a protected shell, apart from the body is essential for complex conscious exteroceptive observation and data processing.

e) A relatively lightweight body with a well balanced homeostatis, controlled by an autonomous interoceptive (subconscious) part of the brain

When you put those fundamentally efficient parts together you’ll end up with a humanoid looking creature. I bet that if you fed those parameters into a computer it would come up with a similar construct.

There are other efficient models for different environment, such as the Octopus, Squids, and Cuttlefish which are adapted to deep ocean dwelling.

Remarkably it is the smartest animals that are the most vulnerable to injury, due to lack of protective armor, but which allows for maximum mobility.

Humanoid robot

A humanoid robot is a robot with its body shape built to resemble the human body. The design may be for functional purposes, such as interacting with human tools and environments, for experimental purposes, such as the study of bipedal locomotion, or for other purposes. In general, humanoid robots have a torso, a head, two arms, and two legs, though some forms of humanoid robots may model only part of the body, for example, from the waist up. Some humanoid robots also have heads designed to replicate human facial features such as eyes and mouths. Androids are humanoid robots built to aesthetically resemble humans.

A very interesting concept is the idea of converting heat from human energy waste for charging electrical objects.

Human Energy Converted to Electricity
Lo’eau LaBonta

Introduction

The first law of thermodynamics simply states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed: it is the conservation of energy. [1] Thus, power generation processes and energy sources involve the conversion of energy from one form to another, rather than the creation of energy from nothing. Metabolism is one example of the first law of thermodynamics in action in the human body: the conversion of food into energy, which is then utilized by the body to perform activities. On a similar note and adaptation of the first law of thermodynamics, human body heat can be converted into useful energy.
Theory
The average human, at rest, produces around 100 watts of power. [2] Over periods of a few minutes, humans can comfortably sustain 300-400 watts; and in the case of very short bursts of energy, such as sprinting, some humans can output over 2,000 watts. [2] The bulk of this energy is required for important tasks, such as pumping your heart and flexing your muscles, but a lot of it is wasted, primarily as heat. [3] Almost all of this wasted energy could be captured and turned into electricity. Furthermore, this process could then augment or completely replace reliance on batteries.
Battery technology is accompanied by a huge limitation when it comes to modern technology. If batteries could be removed from the equation, it would suddenly be possible to have wearable computers: computers wrapped around your wrist, embedded in your shoes, or woven into your clothes. To do this, only a few watts of power from the human body would need to be captured; a negligible amount that would probably have zero effect on the body.

Thanks for the interesting info on evolution

And I remember hearing about Human powered, wearable devices. I don’t recall if it was in theory or in prototype.

That’d be aside from mechanical watches

An automatic watch, also known as self-winding watch or simply automatic, is a mechanical watch in which the natural motion of the wearer provides energy to wind the mainspring, making manual winding unnecessary if worn enough.
 

Yes, can you imagine wearing energy converting shoes? Each step cranks a little lever charging the electric storage device. Solar panels build into shoulder pads. Heat converting clothing. A person could be a self generating power plant (just as actual plants).

As fractals make excellent antennas, I could see fractal clothing being fundamental to human fashion…:slight_smile:

p.s. and it would make robots autonomously independent from humans.
