What has changed is that governments and former government workers/veterans are now starting to release decent information about encounters with strange objects in the sky and in the ocean. Much of it still really does firmly belong in the crackpot world.

The fact that reputable sources are discussing the topic doesn’t mean that all UFO discussion is now fair game. The Crackpots Are Still Out There, & They’re Hurting The Spread of Vital Information However, we don’t want to be so open-minded that our brains fall out on the ground. Given that even reputable news outlets are starting to talk about this topic, it makes sense for us to be more open-minded about it. 🌌 The United States’ long history of UFO sightings began on Jwhen an amateur pilot reported seeing “flying saucers” in Washington state "The acceleration is far beyond anything that we're capable of." /c6ELUHC5wWĪnd here’s the first tweet in a long Twitter thread by The Telegraph, a paper considered reputable in the UK: Here’s a couple short videos from 60 Minutes, considered a reputable news source by most people:Ĭhris Mellon, a former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, said the Nimitz UFO demonstrated capabilities beyond those of the most advanced U.S. Even if you personally think it’s still in the crackpot domain, that’s not objectively true anymore.īefore I get to the meat of this article (the possible cleantech benefits we might obtain from these weird things), I want to drive this initial point home a bit more. What was once reserved to crackpot websites, cable channels late at night, and AM talk radio during the wee morning hours, is now hitting mainstream news outlets.

This may seem silly, to talk about UFOs, but let’s face it: UFO talk is going mainstream. First, I’m going to explain why this isn’t a crackpot topic (anymore), apply some well-deserved skepticism (that doesn’t quite cover all of it), and then show that the United States government may be hiding extraordinary clean energy technologies from us that would benefit humanity greatly if released. I hear you, but bear with me for a couple minutes real quick. “UFOs? This is CleanTechnica, not some crackpot site!”
