And so now we have these really advanced sensor systems, FLIR, forward-looking infrared radar, high-quality radars, satellites. Ratcliffe has admitted that satellites have picked up evidence of these craft. And these craft have interfered with military exercises. as we all know from, say, the Nimitz and the Gimbal and the Go Fast videos that made it out into the public in 2017.
So it's really out there now at this point that there's a reality here. And so... That's where we are at this point.

Right. And, of course, in the program, we interviewed the pilots about their experiences and so on. And so you can't blame a pilot. He says, look, this thing was at 80,000 feet or whatever when he first detected it. Suddenly it's down there right above the water. And then it takes off and does a right angle turn at Mach 3. This stuff is just way beyond our physics.

Of course, to a physics nerd like me, it's like, now wait a minute. If it's real, it's physics. It can't be beyond our physics. It's probably beyond our understanding. But it's beyond our engineering. So in fact, in that series of papers I showed you, the 38 papers, by the way, There's a little side story there. It's interesting. And those 38 papers were then posted.

None of these people who generated those papers had any idea it had to do with ETs or UFOs or whatever. They all went up on what's called the JWIC server. It's a classified server for the Pentagon. And intelligence officers and aerospace contractors could get access, but nobody in the public could.

And usually those things go up and they're up for, you know, a little while and a month or so and they take them down. This was such a popular set, this 38 papers, such popular set that everybody screamed every time they tried to take it down. And so it was posted there, you know, like forever. But eventually through Freedom of Information Act and so on, most of those papers have been released.

And I was concerned that, oh, my God, these guys are all going to call me up and say, what? You didn't tell me this had anything to do with ETs or UFOs. But actually nobody seemed to complain about it. So back to the question that you mentioned a little earlier, though, about, you know, what's the source of this? Like I said, it's an embarrassment of riches. There's so much observation there.

You know, the idea that it may be a scout coming by from some other planet and checking us out and heading off or whatever. I mean, there's much more than that. And, of course, as you know from interviewing Jacques VallΓ©e, he dug into literature and found out, you know, you can go back. millennia and see descriptions of exactly what we're talking about today.
