After The Paracast -- Available exclusively to Paracast+ subscribers on October 4: Gene and special guest Micah Hanks talk about the discovery of flowing water on Mars. Is it at all possible some sort of life form, more advanced than microbes, exists beneath the surface? What about biodiversity on Earth? Is it possible for intelligent life to be totally different from humans? What about the possibility of gradual disclosure, that we are slowly being educated to accept the concept that there is intelligent life in our universe, and that it might be here now visiting us? The focus of the discussion turns to the possibility of a breakaway civilization, perhaps the presence of an advanced civilization on Earth that is hidden from us. Micah goes on to talk about the legends of airships in the U.S. in the late 19th century, and the possibility of a secret history of airship construction in California. The discussion continues about the difficulty of actually learning what&rs quo;s really happening now as the result of totally different versions being presented on the various news outlets. The segment concludes with a few comments about waking nightmares, and the possible relationship with alien abductions.

Disclosure: Shock and Awe or Acceptance
By Gene Steinberg
The long-held dream of many people who believe in UFOs is that, one day, the U.S. government will reveal the truth, that we are being visited by extraterrestrials. They might even speculate on how this momentous event will happen. Perhaps the President will, some day soon, request time for a prime time TV speech, in the hopes the networks will comply. Nowadays they often don’t.
So imagine the fateful evening. President Obama, a grave look on his face, stands before the lectern. He stares briefly at the teleprompter, but ignores his prepared speech. Emotions are high, and he decides to speak from the heart.
Most of the time, the media receives a copy of such an address beforehand, so their talking heads can deliver a credible – more or less – instant analysis before it’s all over. This time, there’s no advance word, which only raises concerns about what he’s about to tell us. But the White House leaves a clue, that several science advisors will be on hand to respond to questions after the address is over.
You almost know what he’s about to say from the opening paragraphs, that, over the years, we have sent probes to other planets, including Mars, and discovered the presence of liquid water. More and more evidence has been found about possible Earth-like planets orbiting other star systems. Anyone who has followed Star Trek – and he identifies the TV show and movies by name – understands that we are not alone in the universe!
He uses the phrase “we are not alone” without any qualifiers.
For the next few minutes, President Obama provides a brief summary of modern UFO history, that we first observed the presence of strange lights in the sky during World War II. You can hear the round of applause around the world as he describes the classic sighting involving private pilot Kenneth Arnold and the nine objects he spotted flying in formation near Mount Rainier in 1947.
However, there’s no mention of Roswell or any other supposed UFO crash over the years. In fact, nothing is mentioned at all about recovering an alien craft or its crew. So maybe Roswell had nothing to do with UFOs after all?
What the President does reveal is that, beginning in the early 1980s, radio signals were received that evidently originated from outside the Earth. Curiously, the messages were heard in the native languages of the country in which they were received. Similar scenes in such movies as “Earth Versus the Flying Saucers” and even the superhero blockbuster, “Man of Steel,” come to mind.
But targeting a radio message in one’s native tongue should be child’s play for ET.
The long and short of it is that the governments of Earth have been in contact with beings from a planet orbiting a star system light years from Earth. They claim to be here for peaceful purposes, to observe another humanoid race, and they have no intent to interfere with our affairs. That means they will not share their advanced technology with us until our own scientific achievements have reached the point where they would be able to integrate it properly.
I don’t need to go on. This, or a similar scenario, has long been been the wet dream of those who believe in disclosure. The underlying assumption is that one or more Earthly governments knows the truth and, for reasons best known to themselves, have opted not to let us in on the secret.
Year after year, you hear about the hopes and dreams for imminent disclosure. It has to be soon, anytime now. Just you wait and the truth will be revealed.
Any day now.
It’s hard to know just how the public will react to such news, if it were revealed, assuming ET isn’t hostile. Some suggest most people would take it in stride, while others suggest many will panic in the streets unless fully reassured that there is nothing to fear – and maybe not even then. Certainly industries that depend on current technologies, such as the oil industry and even Apple Inc., might have reason to fear that they will soon become obsolete.
Organized religion? Well, again all bets are off. Just what do the aliens believe anyway? Do their religious beliefs comport with ours? Religious leaders are apt to remind us that we are all God’s children, wherever we come from, and thus it doesn’t matter. But if our visitors have no religion at all, what then?
And how would we react to discover that we are, in fact, descended from a race of extraterrestrials, or that they visited us thousands of years ago and employed genetic engineering tricks to fashion the human race? What if the advanced beings described in our religious texts were not divine beings after all, but flesh and blood creatures from other planets?
Indeed, if there was something to disclose, would the authorities reveal the truth in the way some UFO believers expect? Is the possibility of a massed landing on the White House lawn an impossible dream?
If government officials came to believe there would be catastrophic results from the disclosure of the presence of alien visitors, would they choose to delay the inevitable, or even withhold for as long as they can? Or would they feed the information, ever so gradually, in the form of discoveries about the possible existence of alien life in our universe? Once the concept was widely accepted by the mainstream, with the possibility thus open that we might be visited at any time by otherworldly creatures, would it take much of a stretch to admit that it was already happening?
Or perhaps we’ll wake up one day and accept ET’s presence among us as something that’s perfectly normal. The idea of Earthlings and aliens trying to just get along was depicted in a 1988 film, and a short-lived TV series, “Alien Nation.” Mandy Patinkin portrayed an alien who worked as a police detective who served with a human partner, portrayed by James Caan. These roles were assumed by other actors on the TV show.
Obviously, “Alien Nation” served as a metaphor about people of different backgrounds and racial origins finding ways to get along. Typical of most high-concept sci-fi shows that manage to find their way onto TV schedules, the producers weren’t able to sustain the concept beyond a 22-episode run.
But if ET was truly here and integrated with our own people, would we even notice? Or will we day awaken to the awareness that disclosure has already occurred?
Honestly, I’m not betting on it happening any time soon – or ever.
