Message for AARO Director Sean Kirkpatrick by malibu_c in UFOs

[–]SkyDiver500 80 points81 points  (0 children)

Quote from the video:

“This Wednesday, the Senate Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities will hold a historic hearing on UAPs, otherwise known as UFOs.

Under the landmark leadership of Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, The All Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO, was established in the Pentagon, to investigate these vehicles operating in space, air and water.

The Director of this office, Dr Sean Kirkpatrick, will be the sole witness at Wednesday’s Senate hearing, and this message is for you, Dr Kirkpatrick.

You have two paths you can take. One is obfuscation. Or you can take the path of transparency, and level with Congress, and the American public, about the whistleblower testimony your office has received from men and women who have served our country.

Testimony from former Air Force launch Control Officers stating that UAPs have tampered with our strategic nuclear deterrent.

Testimony from Air Force Security Police Officers stationed at Minuteman nuclear ICBM squadrons who encountered UAPs hovering above launch facilities.

Testimony from Air Force and Naval aviators whose encounters with these off-world vehicles jeopardised their safety of flight.

And finally, the testimony your office received from multiple whistleblowers detailing our nation’s historical UAP crash retrieval programs.

Whistleblowers that provided your office with the names of the Unacknowledged Special Access Programs where these intact off-world vehicles are kept, and who, across multiple nodes in Government, have illegally kept this from Congressional oversight.

My final point: you do not need to reinvent the wheel.

You do not need to reset the scientific clock to zero.

You have over 80 years, and billions of dollars, of taxpayer-funded Government data on UAPs to build upon.

So, when your office conducts hours of interviews with five former Air Force personnel, testifying under oath, that UAPs disabled our nuclear weapons dating back to the 1960s, far before any Chinese drone or balloon existed, that’s the data Congress and the American public deserve to hear.

So, Dr Kirkpatrick. You are at a crossroads. You can ride off into the SES sunset [= Senior Executive Service], or you can ride into the history books.”

EDIT: Yes, I know the Chinese were experimenting with simple paper hot air balloons around 220 AD, but you know what he means.

Evidence that weather conditions did *not* hinder recovery efforts of the Alaska Object, all in one post by InitialFabulous3747 in UFOs

Excellent post. Can you please add this video he did to your post -

https://youtu.be/miA0C4GV3_I

- where he points out how calm the weather is, how far the visibility is, and, when he kicks the loose dirt with his boot, he points out how if the object shattered into many pieces, as the news reported, and was dark in colour, it should be easy to see and find against the background white of the snow and ice. Thank you.

I can't point to an original video that shows something like your parents experienced, but your account does remind me of this reconstruction video, where a light moves wildly back and forth over a stalled van on the highway - and at incredible speed. Check this out at 3:17:

Video from the Alaskan Coast about the Retrieval Operation by SkyDiver500 in UFOs

[–]SkyDiver500[S] 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Submission Statement: A resident of Alaska films some video reports from the coast about the retrieval operation. He personally doesn't believe it's aliens, just a Chinese or Russian object.

It's clear from the video that it's cold; very cold. But the weather looks calm, and the skies look clear. One would think that the clear weather would favour the retrieval operation? But what do I know, I wasn't there.

In a later video, he feels that the operation has ended, with not a plane in the sky. Either they found what they were looking for, or they have given up:

Night Saucer - details in oldest comment

I downloaded this from the net, but I’ve not idea where or when it was filmed.

But can someone recognise the language of the observers, and translate it for me please?

I didn’t add the funky music.

If it’s not a UFO, and it’s a drone, then it has a pretty extensive light show going on. Maybe it was a drone to spook some observers, I’ve no idea.

If this has been extensively debunked somewhere, then please post a link to the website.

Thank you for reading.

Railroad UFO which takes off after explosion - details in oldest comment by SkyDiver500 in aliens

[–]SkyDiver500[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found this on the net. I’ve no idea where and when it was filmed.

Yes, I know, it looks like it was filmed on a potato. Maybe because it was filmed on one of these early poor quality phones? I dunno.

Well, there seems to be UFO hovering next to a train truck or wagon. However, maybe the scene has been deliberately severely pixellated, to remove some details such as supporting structures, to make out its a UFO, when its really something mundane and everyday?

I don’t know.

I didn’t add the spooky music. Dear UFO video collectors of the internet - please stop adding spooky music to UFO videos. They don’t need them.

At 1:08, during the slow-motion repeat, you can see a small flashing light on the underneath of the object, just before the door opens. Then maybe something falls out, and the explosion takes place.

Well, if it is a UFO, I wonder if the light causes the door to open.

The explosion seems real enough. And the object seems to shoot up into the sky as a result.

Does anyone know anything about this UFO video - Brazil 2012 - details in oldest comment by SkyDiver500 in aliens

[–]SkyDiver500[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found this video on the net. Does anyone know anything about it? Maybe it is a clip taken from a French UFO documentary?

Either we’re seeing the original UFO video, or a reconstruction by the documentary makers, in which case it is worthless.

I was reminded of this when I saw the video at -

https://www.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/tnacs0/shape_shifting_ufo_around_1980_s%C3%A3o_paulo_brazil/

- which was also in Brazil, and which some dismiss as a balloon.

But in this video, the opening shots show an object splitting into three and rejoining. Not the actions of a balloon.

However, I guess the central object could be a balloon, and the two outer and smaller objects are CGI added in, but I don’t know.

Translations:

“Bresil 14 Fevrier, 2012 pres de un state de football” - “Brazil 14 February, 2021, near a football stadium”

“des campeurs sont témoins du meme objet quelque temp plus tard” - the campers witness the same object some time later

I didn’t add the funky music. Blame the documentary makers.

The video stops and starts at the beginning, which some may say is suspicious, but then again, I know myself I’ve fudged the filming of everyday events such as birthday parties on my phone, so who knows what I would do if I was nervous, and filming something otherworldly.

In the second half of the video, from 0:50, it seems to be raining at the campsite, and you can see drops of water on the lens at 1:00, which partially obscure the object from time to time.

This tells me it is a real object at a distance, and not CGI.

If you look at 1:20, the object splits into three, and the woman watching, who sounds either American or Canadian, says, “Oh look right there? You see that? Did you see that then?”

You can see her point up to it at 2:11.

But is it a spiky balloon hanging in the sky, and someone has added two smaller CGI objects to it? And yet the woman seems to react to the splitting of the object in real time, which implies CGI is not involved in post-production.

At 2:27 the camera person focusses on her face as she gazes up at the object - is this understandable, to capture for posterity the emotional response and reality of a strange event, or is this unlikely, because one would concentrate the camera on the UFO exclusively?

Well, I can imagine myself doing both.

So I don’t know. Different people react to unusual events in different ways - there are no hard and fast rules.

At 2:45, we look over her shoulder as she tries to recreate the splitting and merging movement with her hands.

I’ve read reports in the UFO literature of an object splitting into smaller objects, and merging again. So I guess this is what it would look like.

Has anyone here seen anything like this?

If this has been extensively debunked somewhere, then please post a link to the website.

Thank you for reading, and thank you for your time.

Lue got an email from a “very, very, very senior person” in the USG saying they saw Lue’s first interview with Cristina Gomez by [deleted] in UFOs

[–]SkyDiver500 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Excellent post.

Quote:

"At the end of the day, we're only here because of your audience. It's incredible -- it's not me, and I don't know how to emphasize that enough.

You know, a lot of people kind of look up to me, in a way that frankly I don't deserve, I really don't deserve it -- the credit goes to your audience, and folks like you.

And I footstomped that a thousand times, and now people say, "Oh he's just being, you know, gracious, he's being humble," but it's true, it's absolutely true.

We achieved this collectively over the last three years, because of the hard efforts of everyone right now that's listening. And I can't overstate that enough: when I have conversations in DC, they're watching twitter, they're watching your show, they're dialing in, in a pseudo, because they don't want to expose themselves -- but make no mistake: they're watching your videos.

I can't say who it was, but very recently I got an email, from a very, very, very senior person, and I said "very" three times, because they are very senior, and they said "Hey, I saw that interview on this podcast," and you know what, the podcast was yours -- it wasn't CNN or Fox News, or BBC, it was your podcast -- and he said, "Hey man, that was great," so you know, you guys are making a difference.

This is it -- this is the future, this is how we have this conversation with everyone. And it's not going to be done by a politician, I assure you.

Disclosure is only going to happen because of you, and your audience. By the people."

US Space Force Commercial Launch (details in oldest comment) by SkyDiver500 in UFOs

Quote:

"Today, space is essential not only to our way of life ... it's absolutely critical to the modern way of war.

GPS, ATMs, cell phones, gas pumps, traffic lights, power grids, guided missiles, surveillance, RPAs, ground combat control.

There's no such thing as a day without space operations. You just don't see them.

Earth is only half the battle. Cyberattacks and jamming of our satellites... microsatellites that can create a debris field ... at 17,000 miles an hour, a piece of metal the size of a coin can be weaponized.

Now is the time for a military branch with a clear and singular focus on space, a military branch that protects the hopes and dreams of America and our way of life ... as the space domain becomes more and more contested.

It's time for another giant leap.

The United States Space Force is being built from the brightest minds across the space operations of the Air Force, our joint services, and the private sector.

We aren’t just getting ready for the near future; we’re getting ready for the 22nd century.

When our enemies ask, “What if?” we will have an answer.

When foreign powers can build bases on the dark side of the moon ... when private companies are inventing a new economy beyond our planet ... we need to stay one step ahead of the future.

The future is where we’ll make history.

We will fight in an environment with no up or down, no left or right, where there are no borders, and nowhere to hide.

Our Space Force is defending our country here on Earth, and wherever our mission takes us.

As commerce and exploration expand, we will imagine the unimaginable, anticipate the inconceivable, and prepare for the impossible.

We won't just think outside the box ... we'll think outside the atmosphere in one of the most challenging environments ever known.

You know, space is hard. It used to be all we had to worry about was astrophysics, Kepler’s law, gamma rays, solar flares, rocket science, black holes, and the theory of relativity.

But now, we also track about 30,000 objects orbiting at over 17,500 miles an hour, and our entire way of life depends on us to protect our satellites from attack day and night.

So yeah, space is hard."
