Advanced Technology And UFOs
This report on a recently developed an ultra-thin membrane reminded me of some of the technology reported in UFO crashes and close encounters. Scientsists at the Cornell Center for Materials Research have developed a substance formed from graphite that is one atom thick, yet able to withstand a pressure of several atmospheres, which may lead to things like nearly invisible walls.
This development seems pretty advanced even today. What might this say about the strange properties of materials reported in the UFO literature? It would seem that the sort of technology which is always ascribed to ETs might be so advanced beyond our comprehension that we might not even notice it, or it might be beyond our ability to imagine.
In simpler terms, it would seem that the indstructible materials such as those reported in the Roswell wreckage and ladders and self-sealing hatches may be too close to our ideas of what spaceships coming from other planets are supposed to be. They conform to our own ideas of what advanced civilizations should look like, while our own minds are continuing to come up with materials and concepts that seem more advanced than the nuts and bolts-like craft that have plagued the field since the beginning. Why do we see what we expect to see? How much is actually “there,” and how much is filled in with our expectations?
And more relevant to my own bias, how much of this expectation is flattered by those who seek to cover up advanced technology with stories of UFOs? We know that some advances in aircraft, materials, and computers are about 10-20 years ahead of what is usually made public. To most witnesses, some of these advances may look like UFOs and even aliens or the paranormal. It would be very convenient to hide any of these new technologies under the rubric of the unexplained, at least any that inadvertently made their way out of the lab or isolated test facilities.

Yeah silica-doped nanoparticles are the real aliens. LaViolette’s book focused on “metamaterials” which seemingly defy relativity by reversing spacetime. And the stuff can store electrostatic energy — for that electrogravitic discharge. Best of all stimulates a biological ion gate for the perfect brain-universe interface. What happens when the pressure causes acoustic cavitation? Sonofusion propulsion for spacetime travel.

Popular UFO literature suggests that our current state of technological evolution continues to be influenced by whatever craft/items we’ve retrieved (crashed, taken down, whatever); that we’re still figuring out some of the technology to this day.
Though it seems plausible, if you look at where we’ve come in the last 100 years in terms of technology; I don’t know what to believe, to be honest. I’ve always said, when I see and experience it for myself, I’ll believe it.
If you gave Christopher Columbus a nuclear submarine and an unlimited budget, and told him to make 3 of them; do you think he’d be able to pull it off? Probably not…
I’ve often pondered what might happen if one of these ranchers who’s fed up with cattle mutilation were to create an interesting diversion with appropriate weapons and took down an invading craft, if we’d find inside a bunch of dead military/CIA officials.
How embarrassing would that be for them.
Anyone got an ion cannon to sell?

Then there are the reports from the 60’s where people saw computer tapes, lights and buttons inside flying saucers. Not very advanced but the Irwin Allen interiors they expected to see.
I keep forgetting to mention a new technology that could cause more ufo reports in the future: laser plasma volumetric displays. So far it’s small, a bit noisy, and doesn’t project that far but there are lots of annoying and maybe dangerous future possibilities. I don’t know if the plasma is hot enough to harm birds and bats or bring down a hot air balloon for instance. You can find the Japanese research company’s website by googling, “Three Dimensional Images in the Air”. There are also some youtube videos.

That’s interesting stuff!
What about the Fatima visions? That’s alien 3D iMAX
They were probably up there consuming their equivalent of abusive drugs and laughing at all of us, as we formulated our belief systems around their theatrics.

Drew,
Try this on for size:
Propulsion for spacetime travel seemingly defy relativity by reversing spacetime. The perfect brain-universe interface. What nanoparticles are the real electrostatic energy — for that LaViolette’s book seemingly defy relativity stuff. Can store electrostatic pressure. Biological ion gate focused on “metamaterials” which perfect brain-universe interface. Sonofusion propulsion seemingly defy relativity by reversing spacetime.

forrie,
I’ve often thought the same thing about cattle mutilations. It seems a great way to test non-conventional aircraft in the field. The problem comes if one of them gets smacked. Maybe they’re remote operated drones with real-looking alien dummies in them in case of a mishap.
Your comment about the state of ufological belief re “crashed UFOs” is about the same as my own take on the subject and a good adjunct to the post.

euphemystic,
I’ve been meaning to put up a post on the mid-air laser plasmas formed by crossing beams. I gather that some form of adaptive optics system is employed to keep them focused.

Greg: The latest alien technology is to using mirror neurons to transfer recently viewed images into hidden auditory objects, as per UCS neuroscience professor Michael Arbib’s research. And yes Arbib is an expert in both A.I. grammer mind-machine interface and robotic emotions.

Pondering this issue from a larger perspective, I wonder under what circumstances these “big guns” would be brought to functionality (if they aren’t already, under limited direction). I’m guessing some foreign invasion from another country.

forrie,
That’s what I would guess too, but technology sufficiently advanced to appear paranormal to us might be able to operate in plain sight, because witnesses wouldn’t believe their eyes.
