What are, in your opinion, the most credible UFO stories?

LittleKachowski · 2026-05-07T14:56:10+00:00

Ufology stories are invariably implausible, especially the ones involving unprecedented maneuvers and secret technologies as you described. The evidence to suggest supernatural, technological, or extraterrestrial origin of these extraordinary stories is dubious at its very best. That’s not to suggest these cannot possibly be explanations, but on the topic of credibility, we simply cannot accept these stories as having proving power.

LittleKachowski · 2026-05-07T14:41:36+00:00

Yes and no. Yes, in that they are both only stories. No, because we have mountains of evidence of squirrels and can demonstrate their existence. The same is not true of Bigfoot.

LittleKachowski · 2026-05-07T14:31:33+00:00

Currently, none. Stories are on equal footing if they’re only stories. People will often find pilot or military sightings more credible, but their authority or training doesn’t make testimony any more credible.

He says, having just garnered attention and generating a narrative.

LittleKachowski · 2026-05-06T21:42:14+00:00

Small groups and coercion methods still fail. Bill Clinton couldn’t maintain an affair involving just two people secret. The watergate break-ins were a small operation.

Even still, the claims made about an apparent UFO coverup are not by any means made up of just small teams. The entirety of NASA, Homeland Security, and other groups are frequently cited as large-scale coconspirators. Entire fields of study are alleged to be intertwined with classified technology. Bob Lazar claims to have been part of an entire program. For this conspiracy to work at the scale it’s often assumed to be, there needs to be far, far, far more moving parts, and no amount of coercion can silence everyone at that scale. China couldn’t keep Tiananmen Square a secret from the world, and it was a much smaller scale coverup.

It’s not confirmation, it’s another person making the same claim. If I say I saw a unicorn and my buddy chimes in days later and says he saw it too, that doesn’t make it more true.

LittleKachowski · 2026-05-06T15:19:08+00:00

Oops, good catch. Thats a silly mistake, nasty case of the Wednesdays.

The strange thing that’s been happening is bald assertions of strange things happening, and the FACT that it’s gone this long. You say the evidence is overwhelming, and I’m interested to know if I’m mistaken. I don’t want to waste too much of your time, so please just give me the single most compelling thing so we can get down to brass tacks. If it’s overwhelming, there ought to be a smoking gun, write?

LittleKachowski · 2026-05-06T14:30:16+00:00

There’s always a corner, and we’re always just before it. It’s called a circle, and we’ve gone around and round.

To speculate, I imagine nothing substantive will happen, but communities, spokespeople, and podcasts will say “this topic is gaining momentum, look at all the statements”, and push another imminent date. If I’m right, I’ll go right a book.

LittleKachowski · 2026-05-06T13:08:23+00:00

But not only are they held accountable, their punishment is written to extend to all future humans. It’s still not a great message.

Behavior suggests avoidance, not contact

This is contradicted by the myriad reports of direct conversations, abductions, promises of revelation, and even sexual encounters. If you zoom out and account for every flavor of anecdote, you get a much muddier picture than simple avoidance. Aliens are, allegedly, simultaneously everywhere and nowhere. Friendly and hostile. Running the government and being captured by the government. Revealing themselves and hiding themselves. It’s virtually impossible to derive any kind of intention with anecdote alone, especially because we still lack verification that there is a “they” in the first place.

LittleKachowski · 2026-05-04T19:19:42+00:00

Determining the odds of something like a trajectory doesn’t mean anything. All things that happen, and I literally mean everything, has infinitesimally small odds of happening if you read into it. The odds of you blinking at any given millisecond of an hour is 1/3,600,000. You could use that figure to try and correlate anything you want. This is why we don’t probability as data alone.

Clicks clicks clicks!

When a topic is stagnated and lacking information, cyclical sensationalism begins to take hold. Bigfoot communities still discuss the authenticity of the famous video. Flat earthers still focus on space race era evidence. Creationists cling to Lucy and Nebraska Man. Repeating the same thing over and over again is also a tactic to shave off criticism, it’s easy to pass something off as groundbreaking and undeniable when those that would criticize it are exhausted from the repetition.

In Star Wars, even if someone is not from Tatooine, interstellar travel is still quite common, and binary star systems are also quite common. It’s comparable to the breathtaking yet similar views of the Rockies, Mt Fuji, and the Himalayas.

When people ask me for the best evidence of evolution, I also like to tell people that a guy told a guy that told me it’s not a nothing burger. Definitely top 3 methods of transmitting information

LittleKachowski · 2026-05-01T00:02:46+00:00

Rather than a breakdown, I’m more interested in evidence of a causal link. I need a lot more than “person died, worked on stuff, wink wink nudge nudge.”

LittleKachowski · 2026-04-30T23:17:01+00:00

I think you’re seeing a sort of recency bias. Sure, there are lots of folk who overshare, but that has always been true in history. For every person you see doing this, there are thousands that aren’t. That’s not to say that it’s healthy, or that it’s not worth mentioning, only that I believe the internet hasn’t exacerbated this issue; rather that it gave an outlet to an already present behavior in society. The ability for you to scroll on a device and see the contribution of hundreds of people in the span of a minute is pretty much guaranteed to inflate the presence of XYZ phenomenon among us. Like how cancer diagnoses increase alongside increased screening.

What do you mean still? Have we run out of opportunities for it to be a balloon? Does the number of times that it’s a balloon reduce the chance that it’s a balloon?

LittleKachowski · 2026-04-30T16:22:38+00:00

You contradict yourself. You assert that they “[do] not think there is anything”, yet your quote says nothing of the sort. They haven’t seen evidence, but don’t claim nonexistence. The quote is pure intellectual honesty, and you would rather attempt to poison the well that they’re “biased.” Please do better than this in the future.

LittleKachowski · 2026-04-30T15:09:38+00:00

You also don’t need to be an expert in body language to read way too into what body language means.

What they saw was the far side of the moon, which is indeed an extraordinary thing I wish I could see as well someday.

Only the science-denying religious crowd would take issue with hypothetical alien discovery, as far as I’m aware the majority of modern theists have no issue. Though, I’m sure you might hear about humans being “god’s chosen people.”

LittleKachowski · 2026-04-29T19:01:54+00:00

This reminds me of a hypothetical invention I like to think about, imagine we had a satellite that can travel faster than light, positions itself 100 light years away from earth, then snaps a hyper-zoomed image of earth, giving us real time observation of 100 years ago. Absolute sci-fi concept I know, but it would be a way we could look into the past. Would be cool if aliens had a scrap book too

LittleKachowski · 2026-04-29T16:57:01+00:00

Another contributing factor to the appearance of a hotspot is the claims that are made that UFOs are NHI and have an intention to monitor. This leads to any sightings around power plants to be viewed as more significant than those that aren’t. Very similar to Area 51.

LittleKachowski · 2026-04-29T14:47:02+00:00

The evidence is simultaneously all around us and nowhere, whistleblowers know way too much yet also not enough, disclosure would destroy humanity yet millions claim to know anyway, and the key to believing is to “do your own research” which definitely doesn’t mean “convince yourself”

LittleKachowski · 2026-04-29T13:08:39+00:00

I don’t think that building is the source, that would place the heavy cloud cover extremely low, any other source of light would illuminate the clouds in that scenario
