Listen to national security analyst Matthew Pines (Director, Intelligence @SentinelOne | National Security Fellow @btcpolicyorg | physics & philosophy @ JHU, public policy @ LSE | geopol/tech/cyber/#Bitcoin ) offer his informed and thought provoking perspective on the current state of the UAP disclosure effort. UAP discussion begins at 1:49:41.

UAP disclosure in the U.S.

If the U.S.A. is able to achieve disclosure in the next few months, that would be huge for the movement.

This next administration has already proved to be hostile to UAP disclosure. Mike Turner, Mike Johnson, Mitch McConnell and many others have been hostile to any disclosure efforts due to their religious extremism ( rumored to be part of Collin's Elite).

It's now or never

There seems to be a considerable contingent of this subreddit (and related subreddits) who are attending the Sol Conference which takes place from November 22 - November 23rd 2024 in San Francisco. As a result I have created a resource - r/solfoundation to help coordinate meetups, help talk about expectations, facilitate communications and networking as well as discussion about events. Even if you are not attending the event there is the possibility we - the collective members of r/UFOS , who are attending can help ask the important questions on behalf of those who cannot attend. Though I have created the r/solfoundation subreddit it is important to note that I am unaffiliated with this foundation. The Sol Foundation has indicated that they will also offer a streaming option for those who cannot attend. I will post about that when it is available. Some of us are also going to the extra events such as the VIP dinner or the special evening event for extended opportunities to speak with the various people involved with Sol or the speakers.

If you are not familiar with the Sol Foundation this is their official website. Last year's conference speaker talks have been published on their official YouTube channel here.

A main idea in this post is the power of this and other related subreddits here. We have millions of people who are interested in this subject and this is the only MODERATED space in the world that allows the free exchange of ideas. As such I'm proposing that anyone attending show the power of reddit by wearing a RED DOT sticker (get it REDDOT? lol I'm a genius!) to show the power of this platform at the event. This ensures a way for us to instantly recognize another redditor without having to dox ourselves or others. We do not have to share our user names when we see each other but can recognize another person from reddit by the wearing of the Red Dot. I will have extras on me when there so I also encourage those of us who are spending the <$5 to purchase some red dots to bring the extra with them so if anyone does not have one and they inquire about it they to can have the Red Dot networking experience.

This year's conference will feature the following speakers:

Organized by Sol’s board of directors, Dr. Garry Nolan, Dr. Peter Skafish, and Jonathan Berte, the symposium features them as speakers as well as other prominent and new UAP voices, including:

Please come join us on r/solfoundation to talk about questions you might want us to ask, information you might be seeking, resources you might be looking for or more. I want to create a space to talk about not only the yearly conference but the participants and what the Sol foundation might be doing to influence disclosure, scientific advancement and global policy.

I recently launched a new website and free mobile app that tracks Google searches for “I saw a UAP / UFO,” “report a UAP / UFO sighting,” and plots those searches to a heat-map of the US in real-time.

I posted about this UAP sighting tracker a few months ago, and you all had some great feedback. I incorporated a lot of this feedback into this next iteration of the UAP sighting tracker, a big update, which I’m very happy to share.

UAP sighting tracker is now called “Above Us".

Website:

https://aboveus.io/

Mobile App: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/above-us-uap-sighting-tracker/id6737234384

(coming to Android soon)

*the best experience is via the mobile app. The next best experience is using the website on mobile. The website on desktop is currently a bit slow (working on it!)

Some of your feedback that’s been incorporated:

Overlay of nuclear sites

Overlay of military sites

Incorporate a slider function with date (so sightings change as the slider is moved, or “plays”)

Push notifications of sightings based on user location

Better mobile experience / mobile app

Some other new features:

Sightings data changes depending on sightings in view

24 hour / 7 day / 30 day / 60 day / year toggle

Time of sighting data

— 

(*the reason this is US only, is I pay Google for every ad click that drives the data. Each expanded territory beyond US costs ~$500 per month)

(whether someone clicks an ad or not, the data still populates. It populates upon the impression (search being conducted, NOT the ad click))

I get this data by running Google Ads for the searches “I saw a UAP/UFO / report a UAP/UFO”. I pay for each ad click.

Some functions that are still in the works (quite a heavy lift):

Normalize data to population

Expand beyond the US (costs to run this in the US run about $500 per month. Worldwide would run four figures per month).

— 

This method of tracking UAP/UFO sightings is unmatched in terms of speed, volume, and privacy (Above Us doesn’t rely on sighting reports, which are often slow, and discrepant with actual sightings).

This site and app is meant for those interested in tracking the movements of UAPs, but I hope anyone can get something out of it!

About me: I’ve been a Google search engine marketer for 15 years. My experiments with Google Ads have been featured in New York Times, Wired, NPR, Reuters, Mashable, and BBC.

In my opinion, it's the same stories that we all know. I don't understand why in Jeremy Cowell and Knapp documentaries, there is always a scene where they sustain a call on their phone with a new witness who has new information. It turns out to be the same nowhere stories that offer nothing new and prove nothing. This is really lame. How many more "Phoenix lights, Roswell, chupa-chupa," and many other so-called highlights are going to be the proof of this topic? I believe that, at least from them—George Knapp, Elizondo, Corbell, Coulhart, Brandon Fugal, and of course Robert Bigelow, and all the liars financed by him—we're not going to get the clarity and evidence we truly need. They are just making money from all this. But my most important question is, why, in a documentary, do you need to be recorded talking to someone on your phone in your car or your backyard? Why don't you bring this person on screen? It feels more mysterious when you talk on your phone, lol.

The hearing is next week, Great… but.. This is getting bad..

Let me start by saying, I’m a believer in UAP’s and that the government knows something. The hearings next week however are nothing more than disappointing.

Lou Elizondo - This man refuses to disclose anything classified. WTF do we expect from him next week. He wrote a book, he has a Podcast, he has been on every single YouTube channel in the last few weeks. He is a waste of time to be there.

Michale Shellenberger- Great reporter, great information reported… but we don’t need third hand knowledge from the media. We need the sources to come forward. No hate towards him, but what he has been told needs to be verified by the source.

Mike Gold … He knows nothing more than what he has been told. NASA is kept in the dark regarding UAP/DOD/DOE efforts.

Timothy Gallaudet- what more can he say that he hasn’t said publicly already.

This hearing, I feel, will be worse than last year’s hearing, and may be the straw that breaks the back of people like me who want true transparency and disclosure. Maybe that’s the intent considering Lou’s attendance after his public missteps is disheartening.

Let’s talk about the elephants in the room:

The George Knapp, and Jeremey Corbell hype machine is absurd. So are every other YouTube podcaster that is farming clicks from this community. They always release a podcast when someone else breaks a story, then claim they knew about the subject the entire time, while also begging the journalist to “Throw them a bone”. (George and Jeremy on Weaponized) They seem thirsty for leads, and I have yet to see any evidence they have any first hand knowledge sources. They literally have ridden the Bob Lazar story coat tails to where they are now, and claim they are the knowers of all scooped topics, but never seem to bring the scoop themselves. It’s disgusting and embarrassing at this point.

I really hate the term grifter, and really dislike AARO, but man it really does seem like Kirkpatrick was not far off the mark regarding these folks all circular reporting things they have heard vs what they have actual proof of.

It feels like we are all being taken for a ride on a never ending “coming soon” loop, and I hate rides in general.

After reading a ton of UFO books, listening to pods, watching docos and reading potentially real 4chan leaks I keep coming to the below conclusion.

Extra terrestrial species uses drones to scout the galaxy. Once a planet is identified that has life they send a large ship to the planet.

This ship chooses a location that is unlikely to be located, like the deepest part of the ocean.

The ship becomes an outpost/construction facility which creates biological drones and mechanical craft that are custom built for their mission.

The craft and crew could be tasked to scan biological life, monitor military and weapons capabilities, track population and culture etc etc.

This information is sent back to their home world where they gather intelligence from all the planets they are monitoring.

Do most of us feel this is the current most popular theory or na?

Not sure what to make of the video. If it's a fake it's very well done but I'm not an expert. I'm interested in the flash that happens and whether it is consistent with how other parts of the sky and ground are illuminated. There is also a weird frame with a lot of red. Location Mexico? There is audio with a person speaking Spanish and he mentions Mexico but I don't speak this language. The original title claims the UAP is pulling up a person but it's too blurry and far away to tell.

I got the original video from the ChaosMoogle channel on youtube and then took it into my video editor for analysis. More information is also in the Description area.

Note: I'm not sure I posted this correctly. I put the link in the link section but it seems to not be showing up. It's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wLzKCsWRMs

I want to pose a solution for some of the anomalies in the phenomena. I’ve been thinking about the inter dimensional hypothesis, and honestly I believe that the technology we see can be explained if we allow a 4th spatial dimension. Not the 4th dimension being time, I mean a whole new axis perpendicular to our 3dimensional universe. The behavior that is consistent among reliable accounts matches what is possible with hyper geometry. For example, descriptions of a material where the atoms are closer than physics should allow, as if they were flattened in place. I think folding the distance necessary into a higher dimension could be a missing part in the problem. Visualizing 4D was the video that inspired this. I wish I was more articulate but someone has to understand what I mean right?

So in the latest weaponised episode, commander David fravor references a scif involving multiple phds and mentions a character who works in aerospace and has a lot of patents. It immediately drew my mind to Tim Taylor AKA Tyler durden from Diana pasulkas books. The same person who took Gary Nolan and pasulka to the crash site in New Mexico to recover parts. It’s interesting seeing things like this all lining up, only if you’re willing to invest significant amounts of time to understand the whole story.

Today, we're taking a brief look at some UAP news as well as our FIRST NRO Patch review, checking out the NROL-38!

Also, this will be part one of Reading and reviewing the infamous 4CHAN whistleblower Post which came out about a year and a half ago. Like for Part 2!

Pretty interesting how things he said we might seem different in the future, seem indeed different here, almost 2 years later.

This part 1

So Harris just lost pretty badly to Trump and Biden isn’t exactly ending his political career well. Wouldn’t the perfect way to secure their legacy as truly historic leaders be to publicly disclose the fact that elements in the US government are aware of the existence of nonhuman intelligence? There’s already pressure on them to disclose and there will be even more after the hearing next week. We’ve already had the former head of the AATIP program and the former director of the UAP Task Force come out and say that advanced nonhuman intelligence is real. What do you guys think? Could it happen?

20 years after the Nimitz incident, CMDR David Fravor hangs with the boys.

From the video summary:

"November 14th marks the 20th anniversary of what may be the most consequential UFO encounter of all time - the Tic Tac case. Sophisticated sensors on ships and planes in the USS Nimitz carrier group detected incursions by unknown objects over nearly two weeks. On the 15th, Navy radar operators finally locked onto one of the objects, and David Fravor, commander of the Black Aces squadron, was sent to investigate. Fravor’s stunning eyewitness encounter would later become a cornerstone of the largest acknowledged UFO investigation ever funded by the U.S. government, eventually inspiring renewed global interest in the UFO mystery. The consequences are still unfolding. To mark the 20th anniversary of the Tic Tac encounter, Dave Fravor sat down with Jeremy and George to recall what he saw that day, adding details never before made public."

Hey, could someone please explain November 13th to me as if I'm five (or maybe ten) years old?

I'm Swedish and know absolutely nothing about your political system, other than the presidential election that's been dominating the news for the past weeks. I've tried to understand, but there are so many fancy political titles, abbreviations, and other terms that I don't understand.

Hopefully, this will help more non-Americans understand what this is all about.

What's going to happen? What can we expect?
