Trump: “Based on the tremendous interest shown, I will be directing the Secretary of War, and other relevant Departments and Agencies, to begin the process of identifying and releasing Government files related to alien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs), and any and all other information connected to these highly complex, but extremely interesting and important, matters,” he said in a post on Truth Social.

Expect upcoming revelation from Whitley Strieber that Epstein Island was the mothership drugged "abductees" were taken too. 🙃

Obama is producing Netflix documentary on Betty & Barney Hill. His statements indicate he knows how to play the suckers just as well as Donny does.

One of the greatest documentaries of all time, imho, the original Cosmos with Carl Sagan, covered Betty & Barney Hill, although briefly. They were not the main focus of Cosmos, of course. I don't see the point frankly, and it seems obvious that this will be a less-than skeptical treatment, which makes me sad.

Again, as an ex-hardcore UFO guy, we are being subjected to recycled BS across the board. I've lost count on the number of documentaries on the Hills I've seen going back to the 1970s. There is a recycle factor of every six years with this one story alone. We are long overdue for a Roswell Incident rebooting, and I find it funny that it has been ignored by the UAP activist crowd, even though it's where all of this baloney started.

The huge problem now is the skeptics have been successfully drowned out, and this allows the UFO/UAP activists to run wild much as they did in the 1970s. The only glimmer of hope is the UAP crowd seems to be turning on each other as claims of disclosure-to-come go unrealized. Hopefully they'll eat their young.

Just to summarize: There was a beacon on a hill that B&B did not report seeing although they should have done. With the twists and turns in the roads, it provides a perfectly mundane explanation of what they saw. If you add up the times reported in their trip, there is no missing time. City folk in the scary dark.. Recovered" memories.
 
Recently I went to pick up my wife from work in northern St. Louis County, Missouri. (Her shift ends after dark.) Triangular UFO floating above and just to right of the road. Quelle surprise! (I don't believe those stories. I told my wife about and as we went by the location on the way home I noticed that it had gone.

Next night I saw the same thing. and this time I stopped. Turned out to be work light for the night shift working on that property. I was sad.
 
Here's a solid piece from Nick Pope in Skeptic about the current state of UFology:

Ufology: From Fringe to Mainstream to Fringe?

Former UK Ministry of Defence UFO investigator Nick Pope traces how ufology moved from conspiracy theory to Congressional hearings after the 2017 New York Times revelations. He then examines the infighting, whistleblowers, and quasi-religious narratives threatening to push it back to the fringe.

Lays out the whole story on how we got here, and I'll save you the read for his conclusion:

If Donald Trump’s presidency ends without Disclosure, I’ll be 99.9 percent convinced that there’s nothing to disclose. I’d have to accept that if extraterrestrials are visiting Earth, nobody in the government is aware of it. The acceptance of such a state of affairs might actually be rather good for ufology. After all, while some conspiracies are real, most conspiracy theories are false, and encourage a negative, accusatory approach. Removing—or at least reducing—this mindset from ufology might lead to a healthier, less aggressive approach. It would also remove a lot of redundant effort, which could be better used elsewhere, such as in encouraging more scientists and academics to engage on the topic.

As I see it, ufology stands at an interesting crossroads. While some of the details remain disputed, the topic has undoubtedly transitioned from fringe to mainstream in the last few years. However, a mixture of information overload, infighting, and quasi-religious narratives may conspire to undo this progress. Allied to this, mainstream media interest in most topics waxes and wanes. The UFO community can’t expect their current fascination with the subject to last indefinitely. This is particularly true if Congressional engagement falls away, as it may well do if the perception is that the subject is becoming more partisan and more fringe, with the attendant dangers of reputational damage attaching to those Representatives who continue to express an interest.

Ufology has come out of the fringe and into the mainstream, but I believe there’s a distinct possibility that it will move out of the mainstream and back into the fringe.

Important note: Nick has late-stage cancer, so he won't with us much longer.
