E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

I think there's so much evidence there, a la the lead electrostatics guy at NASA leaving to start a company around his sort of work.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And then all the historical stuff I've dug up around him achieving real results with his experiments, but also trying to stigmatize himself and cover up what he did.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

So I'd say high conviction on that.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

Extremely high conviction that something is showing up in the aerial space of nuclear facilities all over the world.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

So again, Fukushima, Japan, you know, Bariloche, Argentina, all these nuclear bases across the United States, Rendlesham in England, famous case in 1980.

E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

something is happening there beyond the coordination abilities of some master psyopper.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

So like those two things, extremely high conviction.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And a third thing that I'm really high conviction in, which is probably my most controversial belief would be that reality is just way more malleable and weird than we think.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And that this gets into like, is the mind involved in wave function collapse or

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

you know, this idea of parapsychology, which is really historically since the kind of advent of that term in the late 19th century, is like this poor amalgamation of like everything weird that empirically seems to happen that doesn't comport well into like other science.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

Like it's just a word for, it's a euphemistic term for like fringe science that involves mediumship and, you know, law of attraction, style, synchronicity, like all of these sorts of things.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And so it's like such a, and it's, of course they used like the, it's the worst branded version of science, you know, in the world because they use two words, para, which you could say is just short for paranormal and psychology, which is the least replicable version of science.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

So it's like, it's almost like self-stigmatizing for like a modern scientific person or whatever.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

But I will say, you know, short of, you know, taking every ghost story seriously, which I don't think you should,

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

Um, if you look at the advent of quantum mechanics and you had these debates, you had all these guys like figuring out, you know, how does the wave function collapse?

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And you had, um, you know, Heisenberg saying it was this like kind of complex matrix mechanics.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And then you have Schrodinger building on him saying we have this, you know, wave mechanical, you know, um, Schrodinger equation, what turns into the Schrodinger equation, um,

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

And then you have Einstein saying, wait, like reality can't be probabilistic.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

God doesn't play dice.

Know Thyself
E178 - Jesse Michels: What UFO Sightings Reveal About Power, Technology, and the Unknown | Jesse Michels

Actually, maybe we need to go to a pilot wave model, which is like a wave that like, you know, holds these discrete states.
