The government has begun releasing video footages of UAP, unidentified anomalous phenomenon. This has generated a lot of excitement in the secular and UFO community that the government has finally acknowledge that UAP exists and by that also implicitly admit that aliens exists and they have been on Earth for a long time.
So, what do we know so far? All known UAP have been small blobs of light that moves in irregular or directions that is beyond our known capabilities. We also have testimonies from pilots and people who are close to projects that is claim to be connected to UAP. The documentary film The Age of Disclosure is supposed to have exposed the truth behind UAP. Then you have the likes of retired Navy Admiral Timothy Gallaudet who know aliens exist and they are here on Earth. When Will Cain asked him do you have any hard evidence of aliens such as physical or biological materials. He then said I have not seen it personally but other people like David Grusch has “testified” in 2024 about having knowledge of programs that keep that material classified and secured. He thinks there are non-human intelligence at a higher order than us operating these crafts.
- Let’s separate facts from fiction and list what we actually know.
We have a lot of experts and serious people who claim to know and have evidence that aliens are on Earth. And they know this because of hearsay testimonies by another witness. They have not personally touched or seen any physical or biological alien materials. - These secondary testimonies like David Grusch know aliens and alien UAP crafts are real because they have knowledge of the programs that controls the actual materials. Grusch testified under oath that the U.S. government is operating a secret crash retrieval and reverse-engineering program, his knowledge is based on information provided by others rather than direct, firsthand experience. So, the evidence that Gallaudet relied on as evidence is Grusch. But Grusch again has never had personal knowledge of alien technology or biology.
- At this point it has been a telephone game without a single shred of hard provable evidence. Many claim this is because of government coverup and thus the push/lobby for the government to release more classified data. But it is strange that if there are programs and individuals who actually have personal experience with alien technology and biological materials they would come out. But none of the people who have actual evidence are as noble as these whistleblowers who have zero evidence but insist there are.
Fact: We have zero evidence of physical contact to any alien material.
Fact: We have a lot of video and photo graphic images of some moving lights. And a lot of testimonies by people who have seen these lights. This is important they didn’t actually see a definitive spacecraft or an alien body. They saw what we see in the videos accept with their own eye in the real world.
Many of these sightings can be explained by natural phenomenon but there are some small percentages that can’t be explained by what we know about our technological level.
99.9% of the efforts have gone into why we can’t explain this and why we can’t do what these things are doing. And if we can’t explain it then the most likely candidate is that they are aliens. And the government is covering this up.
I think they’ve been asking the wrong questions. We should be asking how did they get here? If we are going to give so much weight to the maneuverability and behavior of these blobs of light to claim they are definitive evidence of aliens, then we should weigh that against the evidence of interstellar travel.
- Vast distance between interstellar space
- Mass fuel ratio
- Velocity vs time and interstellar particles
- Possible candidates:
a. Proxima Centauri b: ~4.2 light-years
b. Ross 128 b: ~11 light-years
c. Gliese 12 b: ~40 light-years
d. TRAPPIST-1: ~40.7 light-years
e. LHS 1140 b: ~48 light-years
f. Kepler-186f: ~580 light-years away
g. Kepler-452b: ~1,400 light-years away
It would take our fastest spacecraft Voyager 1 traveling at ~17 km/s to reach Proxima Centauri our closest star in ~74,800 years. But let’s be optimistic because these aliens are smarter than us and they have solved their mass/fuel problem and they can travel at 0.01c or 3,000 km/s. It will take them merely 424 years to reach us from Proxima Centauri. But actually, Proxima Centauri is not a good candidate for life even though it is in the habitable zone. Proxima Centauri b is not a stable red dwarf star, it has frequent violent atmosphere stripping stellar flares.
So what about the next two stars Ross 128 b and Gliese 12 b. At 0.01c aliens can reach us in 1,100 and 4,000 years respectively. They are both stable red dwarf stars. The problem with red dwarf stars, while their temperature are in the habitable zone, the planets orbits the star at 20X closer than the Earth orbits the Sun. Even at this distance it still would have less photons for life than the Earth. The light they get is mostly infrared as heat. Which impacts on how alien biology will develop if it is possible at all. But the biggest problem for life to exist is the extreme tidal forces and rapid orbital cycles because they orbit so close to the stars, they are tidal locked with one side permanently facing the star. One half of the planet permanently bakes under a giant, unmoving red sun. The other half experiences eternal freezing darkness. Life at the intertidal zone might still be possible if there is a strong enough atmosphere. The uneven gravitational pull on the planet could create some extreme tectonic activities, like violent volcanic eruptions.
The next most Earth-like exoplanets are ~580 and ~1,400 light-years away, with Kepler-452b consider Earth’s cousin. If life exist on that planet and they decide to come to Earth, because who wouldn’t want to visit your cousin. It would take them 140,000 years to reach Earth traveling at 0.01c. But for us to go to Kepler-452b at 17 km/s, it would take us 24,705,882 years.
Vast distance is not the only problem. To reach that kind of speed even at 0.01c you need to have extremely advance propulsion something like antimatter drive. And even at 3000 km/s interstellar particles can be detrimental. Some form of sacrificial shielding is needed. If you have the technology to do that maybe you can push it to 0.03c and that would shorten your trip from Kepler-452b to ~47,000 earth years. Assuming you can get better shielding. Traveling faster than this, propulsion is not going to be your problem. A tiny 1mg dust grain could be detrimental.
| Speed | Formula Used | Energy (Joules) | Equivalent TNT |
| 0.01c | ½mv2 (Classical) | ≈ 4.5 x 106 J | 1 kg TNT |
| 0.1c | (γ – 1)mc2 (Relativistic) | ≈ 4.5 x 108 J | 108 kg TNT |
The “Physics” of the Damage
At these speeds, the material properties of the shield (tensile strength, hardness) become almost irrelevant because the impact energy far exceeds the chemical binding energy of the atoms in the shield.
At 0.01c (The “Ablative” Phase)
At 3,000 km/s, the dust grain behaves like a high-velocity shaped charge. Upon impact:
- The grain and a small portion of the shield instantly vaporize into plasma.
- The damage is primarily mechanical pitting. The shield gets “sandblasted.”
- Protection: A thick slab of conventional material (like aluminum or titanium) can absorb this by simply being sacrificial—letting the outer layers erode over time.
At 0.1c (The “Nuclear” Phase)
At 30,000 km/s, the collision enters the Relativistic Regime. The grain is moving so fast that the atoms of the dust grain don’t have time to “push” the atoms of the shield out of the way.
- Subatomic Interaction: The nuclei of the atoms in the dust grain actually collide with the nuclei of the atoms in the shield.
- Secondary Radiation: Instead of just a “dent,” the impact creates a showering of secondary particles (gamma rays, x-rays, and pions). Even if the shield stops the particle, the radiation produced by the impact could kill the crew inside.
- Deep Penetration: The particle doesn’t just explode on the surface; it creates a “tunnel” of plasma deep into the material before the energy can dissipate.
It is impossible for a spaceship to travel to Earth even at relativistic 10% of the speed of light. If you think the UAP on the videos defy all known science from what we can do. Interstellar travel for that UAP to reach Earth is even more impossible.
And the other question that always bothered me is that if you are an alien who has invested so much resources to make that journey to Earth why would you not make actual first contact with the intelligent life on Earth. They are obviously not trying to stay secret. If they wanted to stay secret, they wouldn’t allow us to be able to video record and see them. Their technology must be far superior to ours for interstellar travel. They can stay hidden permanently, if that is what they wanted. Why this silly game of I want you to know that I am here but I don’t want to talk to you. That is irrational.
We sent Voyager 1 out into space not knowing if it will ever travel far enough or survive long enough to encounter any aliens. But we put a golden record onboard just so that the chance encounter, the aliens can learn about us. But these aliens have invested even more time and resources to come here, and all they want is to play hide and seek? Please.
What’s even more preposterous is that once the aliens reach Earth after surviving the impossible hostile environment of space but they can’t survive in the earth atmosphere and crash. Now we supposedly have a recovery program that have pieces of this alien craft and maybe biological. And the government is reverse engineering their technology? This is beyond credulity.
What is also unbelievable is that in the 50s these aliens came in a flying saucer, but now they are in spheres and orbs. The aliens are tracking our scientific advances and manifesting their advancement along with us. They are reverse engineering our technology maybe?
So, so, so stupid.
“When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth” the quote attributed to the character of Sherlock Holmes. If it is much, much more improbable for interstellar travel, then these moving objects cannot be alien spacecraft. Whatever it is, they must be terrestrial in nature. What remains however improbable must be the truth.
Just like a magician who can do the seemingly impossible when we look at the video, we don’t understand how they can move through space like that. But when the magic is revealed, it was much simpler than we thought. The UAP believers claim they are serious scientists and engineers we know how these things work. The problem is that they are not the ones performing this magic trick. They are obsessed that they don’t understand how this work and insist this is a coverup. If you are convinced 100% of alien visitation anything less than the government producing a spaceship and the body of an alien. They will keep saying the government is covering it up. Never mind they have zero hard facts of aliens just a bunch of videos show some blobs.
But why aren’t the people who are actually touching and working on these projects saying anything. Maybe they just don’t want to reveal their secret. Alien believers were never invited into the program because they can’t keep their mouth shut. Nones are jealous because they aren’t invited to the cool kids party.
