Sorry about the upper case headline.. copy and pasted and can't be arsed to lower it..
We live in interesting times..

A fact checking Q&A on this situation from TheDebrief..

"A former intelligence official named David Charles Grusch has given Congress and the Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG) classified information about covert programs that he says possess retrieved craft of non-human origin.

Grusch is a veteran of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) and served as their representative to the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force (UAPTF) from 2019 to 2021.

Grusch said the recoveries of partial fragments through and up to intact vehicles have been made for decades by the government, its allies, and defense contractors. He said the analysis has determined that the objects are of exotic origin based on their morphology, material science, and radiological signatures.

Grusch filed a complaint alleging that he suffered illegal retaliation for his confidential disclosures and is represented by a lawyer who served as the original ICIG.

Other intelligence officials, both active and retired, have independently provided similar, corroborating information, both on and off the record"

    We had this 20-30 years ago with Bob Lazar. Great stories but never yields any actual evidence.

    What? Putin and his goons made it?

    Oh, sorry. You said "non-human", not "sub-human".

    They often crash coz the human abductees on board sometimes fight the aliens to get control of the craft with disastrous results.

    Maybe they need to lock the door of the probing room prior to take off.

    So the invasion is just around the corner?

    Thank fuck for that. If it could start quickly I wouldn't have to keep a work deadline I've got looming.

    It's been coming... evidence is overwhelming.

    But, nothing to fear. There is no recorded UFO/Alien aggressive contact.

    Nah, he's still being paid by the UATF to keep the wonks entertained, lest they accidentally discover something more sensitive while they're poking around (something the US actually cares about, like military activity).

    How sad that the report comments on the competition between countries to exploit/reverse engineer alien technology.  We have potentially got contact with extraterrestrial beings with technology far more advanced than ours and our first thought as humans is "How can we use this in our small bit of Earth to get ahead of the people living on other small bits of Earth?"

    As a species, we are not globally mature enough to be gifted alien contact yet.
    Humans are destructive parasites that will destroy the celestial oasis of Earth.  The sooner Homo Sapiens are extinct, the better.

    US Intelligence Officials.  Well there's an oxymoron for a start.

    And to their statement, I say the following:  bollocks.

    Bollocks, I refuse to let Physics get in the way.  I spent three years in Leeds in the late 1980's having a jolly good time.  I didn't let studying for a Physics degree get in the way then and I'm certainly not going to let Physics get the better of me now.  I demand that c no longer be constant, it's infringing me 'uman rights.

    Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm just off to defy gravity.

    I wouldn't bet against physics and a smarter civilisation with more time on its hands.

    In 120yrs humans have gone from the Wright Brothers first flight to Pioneer 10 travelling at 0.004% the speed of light.

    More importantly, there are no aliens.

    The evolution of complex multicellular life occurred just once in three billion years on a planet perfectly suited to it. The odds against it are staggering, and we can assume we are alone in the universe to a very high degree of certainty.

    Also the Drake equation is a trap.

    I dunno about that - Once in 3 billion years in a form that we recognise. On one planet that we have explored.

    By definition, life on a planet would be be perfectly adapted to it.

    I get what you're saying with the barriers to organic chemistry in the wider universe. The great filters or what have you. Our galaxy was indeed looking like a bleak and lonely place to those of us with expectations of Voyager-like contact with the stars  from the 50s to 90s. As the Voyager data came back and our probes to the Moon and Mars found very little, pessismism was only natural. Still is, but the confirmation of exoplanets (and the sheer numbers of em) and alternative life pathways for carbon based forms in deep oceans have made the Universe seem as welcoming as it's ever been to all manner of phenomena. That's before we even consider Silicon based or something stranger still.


    Doesn't stop me thinking the current story is a load of horse manure, mind.


    Ten years too late and still getting it wrong

    I'm not a fan of the drake equation but as I see it, for earth life you need a moon - not so hard when there's all matter of crap flying around at start of a solar system - and then plate tectonics and an iron core. The planet made life suitable for itself when cyanobacteria pumped out oxygen and replaced the methane.

    But in a universe of 200 Billion Galaxies, each with 100million star systems and over 37 billion years the chances of other life happening is likely quite high. Now there may well be a planet 150 light years away, at the same level of technology as us, but given the distances they would not even have recived our earliest radio signals yet.
