Bit interesting that they gave them this.

So Dr. Kosloski, the current head of the AARO, did a press briefing. He seems to be a lot more useful individual than his predecessor, who seemed hell bent on convincing everyone that UAPs weren’t real without much evidence to back it up. I think that this in particular stands out from the briefing:...

This sounds a bit promising. If we can eventually get to the point where we can treat effectively cancer without chemo and radiation, avoiding the damaging effects of those, the upside would be massive. Israeli researchers identify protein that stops immune cells from attacking tumors Tel Aviv Unive...

A banal observation is that most of the reported shapes are elliptical in profile, like raindrops on a windscreen or any number of lenticular artefacts in the sky. Such mundane explanations are likely for many of the unvetted/unfiltered observations that pop up. Some of them are very easy to dismis...

Here's a question: Is this just happening to us or do the Russians, Chinese, etc have sightings of there. If they do, odds are we know about it but won't say because of collection methods. It appears as if similar sightings are taking place in other locations in the world, including such ones that ...

This stuff just makes me think of all the times I. Sci fi where these things are TOO classified. If the technology were examined by more people there's a greater chance to figure it out, if the alien menace is known sooner we can unite, that stuff. That is a point/claim that’s been made by some peo...

So one interesting person to appear before the committee was Timothy Gallaudet. I believe that he is the most senior former military official to testify in the affirmative about the real existence of these UAPs and USPs. So first off who is Gallaudet? He’s a Rear Admiral (Ret.), and commanded the Na...

I’ll hopefully have time to post a bit more later, but two things related to this from elsewhere that I found interesting. 1. Apparently IMMACULATE CONSTELLATION is controlled by the NSC and not under the DoD. Also, the Department of Energy is claimed to be a lot more involved in all of this than yo...

So there was another UAP hearing in congress. Lots of stuff, high and low perhaps, but one of the more interesting tangible claims, and with some detail at that, was that an undisclosed special access program called IMMACULATE CONSTELLATION exist and which deals with UAP matters. Here’s some detail ...

Albania is off the beaten path, probably a cheaper cost of living than New York or CA. I hope they learn the language. Yeah, they’re not really that fluent in English in general, and it’s not an overly easy language to learn. To just mention one of many reasons Albania would not be at the top of my...

I've heard of a few stars actually moving out of the US. Most common is CA to the UK. That's a good think, it cuts down on the CA tax base and increases the UK tax base. They have enough money so that reality won't hit up the side of the head. I’ve heard mention of moves to the countries you might ...

A TV series installment in the ”…has fallen” franchise, this one is set in France. Synopsis: Protection agent Vincent Taleb and MI6 agent Zara Taylor manage to stop a terrorist attack targeting French Defense Minister Philippe Bardin during a reception at the British Embassy in Paris. But the master...

Good for her. The scientific community has been way too sensitive on the ”self-experimentation” issue for a long time, so good that someone agreed to publish the findings. This scientist treated her own cancer with viruses she grew in the lab Virologist Beata Halassy says self-treatment worked and w...

Auto-translated: Deepened cooperation with the US Space Force Headquarters – 7 November 2024 at: 11.14 For some time now, Sweden has had a cooperation agreement with the USA to be able to exchange space-related information. Last week, the head of the US Space Force, General Chance Saltzman, visited ...

I saw a missile frigate converted into a mega yacht. Shame they took the guns off. The Onassis yacht Christina was previously an RCN Prestonian-class frigate. Same complaint. Compare it to J. P. Morgan or Cornelius Vanderbuilt’s yachts, where they put the guns on the yachts :p There’s a modern supe...

For those interested in the technical, engineering, bits of a superyacht this is a tour of the Victorious engineering spaces and bridge guided by the chief engineer and captain. Including some rare things such as a demonstration of the watertight doors and such: https://youtu.be/3CZGrPZ68CY Lovely t...

This is by the way, according to my personal taste, pretty hideous as far as aestetics go.

When I look at these super yachts, and even agreeing that the videos are staged productions, I always wonder how well they would handle a winter North Atlantic crossing. Something like a sea state of 4 or 5, to start with. I'm sure a lot of the stuff can be put away, but there still a lot of breaka...

If I ever get a billion or so, and decide that I'm mad enough to want a megayacht, the first design consideration is that it's built on the hull and machinery of a Coast Guard cutter. I don't care if it's not the fastest, not the sleekest looking, and has a slightly bumpy ride in some sea states. W...
