UFO Crash In Roswell Now Official!

Official what?

It is only a summary of a statement taken during an investigation which as you will note wasn't followed up.

What news?

Umm...maybe the thing that crashed was a RESULT of OUR technology of the time. In other words, it's not a cause and effect thing. It's intertwined.

It's not too difficult to understand plausible explanations, especially when framed in the context of the Cold War. My guess is that we were working on an ealry prototype of a predator aircraft, and it was related to a weather balloon.

Conspiracy? Cover up? I think there was and still is to some degree, but that's not evidence of alien visitors.

All the best,

A lot of "technology" we have today couldn't be reverse engineered without the basic knowledge needed to do so. Computers DO predate the technology used today. They were thought about seriously in the late 19th century. In 1944, a computing device was actually shipped to a customer. The first NON MOVING PART transistor like component was commercially available around 1923, based on work done by EDISON when he was playing around with his lightbulb! The SOLID STATE transistor was created in 1947, and based, in part, on a product commercially available in 1906 based on a discovery made in 1874!

About ICs? Well, almost ALL of the passive components date back WELL over 100 years! I just illustrated the development of the ACTIVE components! Yep, hard to believe that SO much came from a little discovery that was more a curiosity and a childs toy than anything considered significant discovered OVER a CENTURY ago by a german physicist named "Ferdinand Braun". HECK, when I was a little kid I bought a crystal radio set with some "blue chip stamps"(AH, the good old days! 8-/) that had as a KEY part a germanium diode that was basically a miniturized form of the cats whisker diode which was DIRECTLY related to that discovery by FB!

As for technology developed AFTER that? Well, MOST technology today, whether that $10 MP3 player, or that million dollar computer is really VERY old technology! I mean they had to come up with a way to mass produce transistors. Change the doping pattern, and you have a darlington transistor! Essentially an INTEGRATED CIRCUIT of sorts. add resistors and capacitors, by changing the doping patterns, etc... you can have CPUs! When LIGHT met its limits, IBM figured out how to use XRAYS. I don't think THAT has hit its limit yet.

So saying that a computer today is more complicated is like saying that "war and peace" is more complicated than the owners manual on the MP3 player. That may be true, but they STILL use the same parts! Nether book would be any harder to print!

So I would LOVE to agree with you, but the facts just don't agree. If a person around 1930 saw an IC, like those made today, they would have a HARD time figuring out HOW it was constructed, what it was supposed to do, etc... And would aliens have used the same materials WE did? BTW we now have the ability to basically design a whole computer into a piece of plastic. If a person in the 30s saw it, they might feel it was a logo, language, or something else, and it would be even HARDER to reverse engineer.

OH, and the first diodes and transistors shown here were VERY crude! If a maid came by, she would be likely to throw them out!

One reason why I CAN'T believe the now official story from the US military is because they used the old transposition theory, and it is LUDICROUS! So WHAT is the "theory"?

THEY say that the event around 1945 was confused with an event around 1954 and that around 1954 they tested some kind of parachute or whatever by using DUMMIES and that the dummies were very short, and bluish colored!

That does NOT fit because people KNOW they are talking about an event that happened 9 years earlier. And WHY would the military test parachutes that way? The dummies were too small and light for any meaningful test. And WHY try to hide such an event. And WHY in the 1950s? NOTHING fits!

Steve

Like I said, they said this DECADES ago! It is NOTHING NEW! Ever see the series "project blue book"? They have NOT covered up its existence, or even some weird stuff. They only interpret things a certain way.

LOL - didn't see your post until after I posted. Guess great minds think alike, eh?

And then we have the usual question: IF we have this technology, why is it just used (most probably) by the military? I know the answer, but when you think about it, it could be so cool to have trains doing 5K miles per hour or airplanes going from Sidney to Paris in 3 minutes.

Ahhh I keep on dreaming.

I had lunch with aliens just yesterday afternoon.

Yeah, that 2nd one is what really scares ME!

Just today, I was listening to a conservative talk show host and he had a VERY upbeat song playing as an introduction introducing NEW threats by the pakistani taliban. They said it happens everyday, etc... And I was thinking about how I would love to do things to make terrorists just look stupid, like presenting fake threats, etc... so people wouldn't overreact as they do. That is the REALLY bad part about the "terrorism", people make it seem like the terrorists are doing so great.

On the FLIP side, germany, during WWII, aimed some weapons at france by using news reports in france!

But overused, it would be BAD!

Steve

OH, I wanted to be fair. Really, the miltary takes credit for MANY things they had a MINOR hand in, or nothing at all. Ever see MIB? There is a scene where they say that even CDs came from aliens! I hate to burst their bubble, but they were talking about CD like technology when my father first went to IBM. That was around 5 DECADES ago. Of course THEY were talking about using a CRYSTAL, much like you may have seen in many sci fi movies. And they had HIGH hopes! Well, use an EMULSION instead of the crazy idea of a solid crystal, which automatically lowered the power requirements, move the emulsion on a disk, instead of the laser, which reduced problems with precision, and wait until someone created an LED to replace the laser TUBE, to reduce everything else, and VIOLA! It really isn't much different from an old recordplayer, which is similar to edisons dictation machine! SURE the rings are concentric instead of spiral, and it uses a laser and light instead of a magnetic pickup and needle, but it is VERY close.

Even VELCRO! I mean if I had the desire, etc... and it wasn't developed yet, I might have made velcro. It really wasn't that obscure of an idea.

Now APPARENTLY grace hopper was more a manager than a designer. Listen to her speak, and it really doesn't seem that impressive. And COBOL is not even something that is really good for the military. And it wasn't the first high level language ANYWAY! Apparently, FORTRAN was! But who knows, something may predate IT! BESIDES, Cobol is WAY too wordy, and encourages bad coding which BELIEVE ME, EVERYONE took advantage of. We are STILL trying to live that down! OH, it was flexible and powerful, but some things should have been left out or obfuscated!

Steve

WRONG! If we are to believe them, and we MUST, because it is FACT, a report was made about that sort of thing! and I don't know WHY people don't believe in UFOs! We have had them for THOUSANDS of years, really millions or billions, according to some! Name me ONE creature on the planet, just ONE that can identify every flying object! I'll admit I can't!
