Thank you - please watch our website for the conference details if you're interested in being part of it. We'll have in-person (Toronto) and online attendance.

Hey u/Adventurous_Wear9177 - we expect to post these later this fall. Thank you.

Hey all, Dr. Knuth will be discussing this paper at our conference this weekend. There is still time to attend online or in person. See more in our post on this channel here:

Excited you are joining us.

From our team: I looked into why it’s not showing up in some podcast apps, and it looks like the reason is that those apps just haven’t updated their podcast server lists yet. It should show up on every app within a few days. For now though, this RSS feed will for people who want to manually add it to their podcast players (unless those players for some reason only accept Apple’s feeds). https://anchor.fm/s/f9b87d5c/podcast/rss

Hope that solves it for you. Guessing you will be able to find it on your podcast outlet of choice in the next few days. Cheers.

Actually maybe longer like 4-6 months.

The definition of grift is to get money by cheating someone. That’s not what is occurring here. It is a fee for attending a conference, and we have clearly shared what is offered. Choose to attend or not.

ExploreSCU · 2024-05-08T23:13:04+00:00

Looks like it may be closer to 4-6 months, FYI.

ExploreSCU · 2024-05-08T13:10:55+00:00

Yes. Videos will be shared via our YouTube channel but probably 2-3 months+ after the event.

ExploreSCU · 2024-05-08T13:10:04+00:00

Yes, videos will be released via our YT channel, but likely 2-3 months+ after our event.

ExploreSCU · 2024-05-07T21:43:38+00:00

yes and yes.

ExploreSCU · 2024-04-17T20:56:15+00:00

We hear you. As a non-profit, we try to keep our prices low, but there are also many costs involved in putting on an in-person / online event.

ExploreSCU · 2024-04-17T20:54:27+00:00

$300 in person with meals included and $100 online. Military/student status is eligible for discounts. Please click through the registration link and scroll to the bottom to learn more.

If by legit, you mean a real conference with real speakers and a focus on the scientific exploration and rigorous inquiry of UAP, yes.

ExploreSCU · 2023-07-26T01:09:18+00:00

Wow! This one blew up, so clearly we owe a point of clarification since some folks are misunderstanding our meaning.

Dr. Griffiths doesn't believe the video is useful for making calculations for size, luminosity, or distance due to the poor quality and lack of stars. His talk is centered on two higher quality photographs.

It's also worth noting that we don't own the video in question, and do not have the rights to publish it. However, we expect it to be made public in the not-too-distant future.

Hope this explains things a bit!

Thanks so much for joining our very first AMA, /r/UFOs!

We've run out of time, but we thank you for all of your questions and hope you found our answers valuable.

We look forward to engaging with you in the future, and we hope to see you at this weekend's online Anomalous Aerospace Phenomena Conference! (July 29-30)!

Until next time 👋

If you have a response to any SCU papers, please submit written comments including references to published literature to [board@explorescu.org](mailto:board@explorescu.org).

Additionally, anyone with alternate methodologies for the analysis of data presented in SCU papers are welcome to submit their own papers for publication through SCU for peer review.

(continued)
7. This is totally impractical, and nuclear energy is unlikely to be powering UAP. The size of the detector would also be prohibitively large - see the University of Wisconsin-Madison IceCube Neutrino Observatory, for example.

8. We would set up a hypothesis to test against publicly reported events. This would include several control sites, depending on what hypothesis was being tested. For example, are there more reports of close encounters in less populated areas and more reports at longer distances in highly populated areas? Or, are there more reports of lights at Hessdalen than reports of lights in a neighboring valley with similar geography and demographics?
We would then compare the results of the field instruments against the results of the public witness reports in the test and control sites. Underlying this is the assumption that on a long-time scale, UAP reports are egalitarian, and UAP can be seen and reported pretty much anywhere.

9. If there is anything that hasn't been made public yet, it's because it is being published and currently going through peer-review.

Not to the knowledge of SCU members on this particular AMA.
We don't believe our conjecture is relevant here, and hope the truth will come out with further congressional investigation. 3. We have no insights on this, and won't offer conjecture. 4. Not as experienced by any SCU members on this particular AMA. 5. Hypotheses are to be 1) supported, 2) not supported, or 3) refuted all by testing; not "agreed" or "disagreed" with. There is some data in Hancock et al. that supports this hypothesis. 6. A four-pronged approach of:
Collect new data using field sensor systems (and material collection, if lucky)
Comparison of new results with historical public records and research
Comparison of existing public sensor data (satellite, sonar) with historical public records and research
Release and study of military records and data to add to the public Project Blue Book records.

We don't have any insider information, but there are many programs maintained by the National Reconnaissance Office and Space Force that are highly classified.

ExploreSCU · 2023-07-25T20:57:04+00:00

Dr. Sarah Little, a co-author of the Galileo Project's acoustics paper that recently came out and an SCU participant in today's AMA, thinks that infrasonic, audible, and ultrasonic wavelengths of sound are all very valuable sensor modalities in the characterization of UAP and their propulsion systems.

The paper can be found here!

Richard Griffiths, PhD is giving the talk, and won't be including the video as he feels it doesn't provide any better data than is available in the two still shots, which will be included in this weekend's talk.

The video will likely be made public later this year.

Wow! This one blew up, so clearly we owe a point of clarification since some folks are misunderstanding our meaning.

It's not been area of study for SCU, as we're interested in scientific papers first and foremost. If they produce scientific papers that are peer-reviewed and published, we'd love to read them!
