Sorry if this is a dupe but IIRC Boing didn’t cover this story… the recent Artic UFO story prompted me to make this topic.
While the object in that article may not be a UFO, the recent NYT article has renewed my interest in the subject:
My pet theory is that if extraterrestrial craft are visiting us, they are not manned - they’re probably piloted by AI (or maybe a Black Mirror style “cookie” pilot).
After all, it looks like the speed of light would be a barrier to manned travel…
Anyways, I thought it would be interesting for our collection of weird but not crazy people to discuss the issue
Between this and the fact that Hillary Clinton is a believer with no special evidence (despite her access) I really wonder. It is clear something like a massive cover up is not happening like in pop culture.
Has she’s specifically a believer in UFOs, or just the idea of intelligent life?
I think it’s become relatively well accepted for people to say there’s probably intelligent life somewhere, the question being is it close enough to visit.
