So aliens is almost unscientific as a hypothesis because it can explain everything.

And yet there's no experiment I can do to ever prove it's wrong.

And that that puts it in a very precarious position scientifically.

Yeah, I would just say whatever your hypothesis is, the most constructive thing to do is to think about how can we prove or disprove it.

We can't.

That's what I want.

Yeah.

I mean, we can argue about history, but I think the most constructive thing is just to design an experiment.

And I think...

You know, Avi's idea of Project Galileo is a good one.

Like, we should try and survey the sky more systematically.

And we've got now the Vera Rubin telescope, which is doing, like, literally a movie of the entire sky every night.

So I think as we grow in our capabilities, it's going to get harder and harder for this UAP hypothesis to evade all of these facilities that we're building in a public domain.

This is public data, not military data.

controlled facilities.

So they camouflage themselves.

Yeah.

But then you're starting to get into this exponentially contrived.

Yeah.

Because they're in our heads and they know everything.
