Oh, and I should stay away? WTF?Usual Suspect: Early days and like to hear Author Greg Bishop and Nick Redfern with Gene/Don on this time for roundtable. The skeptical side also suggest the news articles generate income for their operations . Who paid for the news reports?
I am. IMO—He's a grandstanding aspiring 'PT Barnum' who thinks he knows it all, but doesn't really have much of a clue... next question?Are we still laughing at Tom DeLonge?
This article in Politico quotes Elizondo and Mellon and praises To the Stars, well, “to the stars!”
The Pentagon’s Secret Search for UFOs
The article that Constance posted just above you fills in a lot of important context and a few crucial details:Here is the "To The Stars Academy of Arts & Science" version of the first IR recording of the NYT article.
Maybe there is something to it, but it doesn't look particularly striking to me.

The indicated speed of Mach .58 (slightly above half the speed of sound) is 386 knots, aka 445 mph. The F/A-18 Super Hornet has an official top speed of 1190 mph, so the jet was at 37% of its top speed. Not particularly fast, but not particularly slow either.According to the vid, the plane tracking the "object" seems to be making about 240-250 kts, which is very slow for a fighter jet - - no spectacular performance.
The article that Constance posted does explain that the jets were on a training exercise near San Diego at the time of the encounter.Anyway, this vid could possibly be of a training exercise. Maybe, or not. . .
Did you read that other article? The object made it to their cap point 60 miles away in less than a minute (>Mach 4.5). With no visible emissions. And how did it know the position of their cap point to arrive there while they were still 40 miles away from it?Neither this vid nor the other vid in the NYT article seemed impressive to me.
According to Peter Levenda (see my comment above) Tom DeLonge had EVERYTHING to do with it.It's impressive that so many mainstream outlets are revealing the hidden U.S. program. I wonder if Delonge has anything to do with it?
Never Chris just a given with all the negative vibes from some folks every week .Oh, and I should stay away? WTF?
Oh, and I should stay away? WTF?
I'm taking a more circumspect position with the To The Stars Academy, for three reasons:I am. IMO—He's a grandstanding aspiring 'PT Barnum' who thinks he knows it all, but doesn't really have much of a clue... next question?
Honestly, I think that anyone else on the board would be a better option. Luis Elizondo has already posted here, and he seems like a sincere and amiable guy, and he was basically our (US) version of Nick Pope - god only knows what kind of fascinating material he's sitting on. And the guy from Lockheed looks like a walking brain - I bet he's got some interesting things to say. We already know what Tom DeLonge has to say, and it's a mixed bag at best. I say: give the other folks a mic and let's hear all of the stuff that we haven't heard yet.Well get Mr Tom De Longe on the Paracast Show of course in the After the Paracast
