A gigantic new ICBM will take US nuclear missiles out of the Cold War-era but add 21st-century risks::A new nuclear missile is coming, a gigantic ICBM called the Sentinel. It marks the largest cultural shift in 60 years in the land leg of the Air Force’s nuclear missile mission.
The fact that humanity needs the threat of nukes to maintain peace, says a lot of the disparity between the advancements of our technology and the limitations of our own primitive mentality.
I wish we were more like Star Fleet.
Last time I watched star trek high I almost cried… it’s not fair!!! That could be us but the capitalist scum playin with our lives instead.
Best the world’s oligarch trash can do is the ferengi alliance (the TNG version, not ds9)

Oh wait, never mind.
There’s a whole bunch going on they don’t talk about. There may not be money, but there’s a shit load of cronyism and politics. I can only imagine the classes too. Who decides who gets land? Who gets a ship? Where me how big is your house? How does one get a job they like? There’s still gardeners, construction workers, janitors, plumbers, electricians, fast food workers, and everything else. They’ve got IDs, so something resembling the DMV still exists too. Who wants that job? Crime 100% still exists at all levels and the courts have proven to be less than fair in many episodes.
I’d argue humans and ferengi are super similar except humans are not as outwardly greedy.
In order for Star Fleet to happen, we’d need WW3.
Why do you think WW3 would finally inspire us to stop killing eachother? What makes you think there will be anything left?
Haven’t you watched Star Trek first contact? They talked about WW3 destroying governments so Cochrane built a Star Ship from an old ICBM with warp drives. Once they go faster than light, Vulcuns visit us and boom… We’re a space exploring species. Peace ensues.
The one that Spock comes out of some kind of pod ?
No. First Contact was the Picard crew.
Yeah, but who was the first Vulcan that arrived on earth ? Wasn’t it spock?
T’Mir was in 1957.
The three in FC were named T’Pau, Soval, and Solkar.
Well I guess we have solved why the universe is silent. i.e no evidence yet of intelligent life
Certainly not explicit evidence of intelligent life, but the UAP situation makes me wonder. I have compiled a tremendous amount of evidence supporting the claim that UAP/UFO are real intelligently controlled objects. Once again, because often people cannot separate the two, this does not prove aliens are real/that is not my argument.
The sources of information are all legitimate and you can verify them for yourself. I sourced the actual government documents from the National Archives. There’s no debating the authenticity of the documents. I also included bipartisan quotes supporting the topic, including Schumer and AOC. There is also verified goverment footage of UAP.
For the people whose first instinct is to mislabel me as a crackpot and ignore the link: If you are so sure of yourself, I challenge you to read it and see if you think I’m crazy. You wouldn’t say that about other pieces I write. I’m about to start my Master’s in Clinical Counseling. I’m not some wild conspiracy theorist.
The amount of denial to the point where people won’t even consider evaluating evidence feels like Don’t Look Up.
Edit: This is an excerpt from my post for those who are so sure of themselves to consider:
I admit I had difficulty suspending my disbelief in the possibility of UAP, but there is an important example from history that ought to give the skeptic pause in unilaterally dismissing this subject before reading on. I’m referring to the discovery of handwashing, in which everyone originally rejected the antiseptic procedure and surgeons didn’t even wash their hands prior to operation.
Despite his research, Semmelweis’s observations conflicted with the established scientific and medical opinions of the time and his ideas were rejected by the medical community. He could offer no theoretical explanation for his findings of reduced mortality due to hand-washing, and some doctors were offended at the suggestion that they should wash their hands and mocked him for it. In 1865, the increasingly outspoken Semmelweis allegedly suffered a nervous breakdown and was committed to an asylum by his colleagues. In the asylum he was beaten by the guards. He died 14 days later from a gangrenous wound on his right hand that may have been caused by the beating. [43]
Like Semmelweis’ research, this subject is being discounted and rejected on the basis of preexisting beliefs; not lack of reasonable evidence or ability to to study UAP. And like Semmelweis, rational individuals and scientists studying this subject are being mislabeled as crackpots, and their research misconstrued to have to do with aliens, rather than the very real phenomenon at hand.
You’ve put serious work into this and your writing is well stated, sourced and compelling, so far. I’m willing to suspend disbelief and take a deep dive.
and their research misconstrued to have to do with aliens, rather than the very real phenomenon at hand
Yeah. Something is clearly happening we don’t understand, and I don’t believe all our observations can be accounted for as advanced military tech.
Not sure how I feel about the Semmelweis comparison. On one hand, we’re far more rational and advanced than then. OTHO, meh, let’s not assume we know it all.
Bookmarked your site, but you better not get crazier and crazier as I read!
EDIT: I’ll keep my notes here as I read. Gonna take some time!
AOC talking about, “not aliens, but some shit is happening” and “pulling threads” to unravel it. :) Y’all, AOC unravelling threads and asking questions, is exactly why Trump is getting his ass handed to him in a New York courtroom, right now.
To your AOC edit, the kind of thing I believe she is referring to are secret projects like USAF Project 1794 that could involve modern contractors like Boeing and Lockheed Martin.
Ha! I appreciate it. I stay far away from abduction stories and stick with declassified documents and former military/DoD/Intelligence officials.
I ultimately believe UAP are real objects, but their origin is total speculation. Could be secret government tech. I personally can’t rule out non-human intelligence, but there’s no evidence of that. But there is evidence that UAP are real objects under intelligent control, possessing disruptive/breakthrough technology.
Any intelligent species capable of crossing interstellar space isn’t letting their spacecraft be detected by us. The gulf between modern humanity and a species that can cross hundreds, thousands of light years of space is ENORMOUS.
If you read the information in that link, there were crafts in our atmosphere beginning in 1947, which had capabilities that outperform our current (publicly disclosed) most advanced aircraft. The performance capabilities included speeds of thousands of miles per hour, 90-degree turns, instantaneous acceleration, and silent operation.
Many of these sightings around the world were accompanied by radar which confirmed the visual observations. Some have left detectable levels of radiation. All of this is cited in that link. Also in that link is the Nimitz Event, in which a UAP outperformed F/A-18F Superhornets and left the Top Gun pilots shaken.
I’m not stating this is technology from outside our planet. I’m not saying this can’t be human technology. Look at Project 1794 in that link. That was the United States Airforce’s secret contract to Avro Aircraft to build a literal ‘flying saucer’ powered by 6 Siddeley Viper turbo-jet engines.
It’s important to note, however, that the aircraft from Project 1794 was not capable of the performance capabilities of the UAP/UFO that began being mass sighted around the world in 1947.
So either we have kept aircraft technology so far advanced that it outperforms modern declassified tech secret since 1947, or something else might be responsible.
