Since 1947, UFO video publishers have been the source of widespread criticism and ridicule. The mainstream scientific community has been so quick to dismiss UFO claims, sighting a “lack of evidence,” that any proponent of advanced intelligence in our galaxy beyond our own has been relegated to conspiracy theorist with a flair for science fiction and low emotional intelligence. Boo to you naysayers, our EQ is super duper.
But does the scientific argument hold up here? The scientific method, an empirical method for acquiring knowledge, requires skepticism, observation, the formation of a hypothesis, and objective testing of said hypothesis with the available evidence.
Scientists thus far have leaned on this sacred and proven method of acquiring knowledge regarding UFOs, but when do we acknowledge that this process may not be the most appropriate for the subject?
Further evidence, what many scientists have said would be needed to be unimpeachable, may be impossible given the subject matter. Honestly, is there any “evidence” that helps push the narrative forward short of an alien landing on your front lawn?
“Where’s the evidence?” – asks the skeptic.
Well, the only better evidence than we have would be just that, a visit from an actual alien on live television, and that still may not do the trick. The simple truth is, unless they land on Earth during the Super Bowl, there will always be scientists and skeptics who want more. But is it needed?
UFO video clip
In this video (a new one is streaming on YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok every day now), a woman is trying to record Monday’s lunar eclipse when she catches an object moving across the sky that looks nothing like a plane or weather balloon.
Here’s the UFO video clip.
Now, in fairness to the scientific method, this video would hardly pass the sniff test. Yes, it is possible that this “UFO” could be just what we expect. But given the rigorous process we’ve put Pentagon videos through (which show far more compelling imagery in support of aliens), this video will hardly make anyone a believer.
It’s a satellite. It’s the space station. It’s a weather balloon. Or it’s a glitch in the camera. Unfortunately, the video isn’t strong enough to debunk some random “it’s a glitch in the camera” argument against it.
In fact, the first comment on the video is that it IS the ISS. However, we’ve watched the ISS many times without a telescope (very visible here in the mountains), and it has almost no glare. It looks like a machine slowly gliding across the sky. This object glows very brightly. But again, this is the type of evidence we have.
UFOs have become so prevalent that there is a new UFO video every day streaming somewhere. Unfortunately, we’re probably years away from finding out whether or not our suspicions are founded. Unless we get lucky and the B shift on an alien ship decides our president is important enough to meet publicly, we’re unlikely to move from conspiracy to acceptance soon.
Short of human beings flying back to the moon, to Mars, or other places where we suspect we can prove some Nanobe or micro bacterial life already exists (which would begin to help shape people’s perspectives before getting their minds blown), we’re still a long way from convincing the public (slowly) that we’re not alone. And until everyone accepts that human life will change once we truly reach the stars, expect more of the same; a lot of UFO videos but no UFOs, streaming this weekend.
