Let us hope we can find some credible answers to important questions. Leave your crude jokes at home. Intelligent lifeforms beyond earth do exist. Our galaxy is a habitat for both life and intelligent life. We are not alone.
Let us hear about the hundreds of sightings by military personnel. What was Oumuamua? The answer appears to be: mind boggling mystery. When something is unexplainable or defies the laws of physics, simply tell us. What we need on this platform is scientific investigation and analysis. Too often we hear 'rederick' (for those who are unaware this word exists, even if you cannot find it in the dictionary.)

And I was so convinced that rederick was a communist spy known only by the code name 'erick'

Dave? That you, Dave?

Stanford professor says aliens are 100% already on Earth living among us and have 'been here a long time'

A Stanford University professor and renowned ufologist confidently declared that not only have aliens visited Earth, but they have "been here a long time." Dr. Garry Nolan, a professor of pathology at Stanford’s medical school, made the eyebrow-raising assertations during a recent conference...

Whenever I want the gold standard of opinions I always go to someone with expertise in an unrelated field who makes assertions backed up by invisible evidence.

Very informative forum. Definitely not the usual rederick. Thank you to all who participated. You are all respected experts in your fields.
Scientists have some difficulty with a number of things .
Firstly, the concept, we don't know what we don't know. We need to study the unexplainable. An example is Oumuamua. This is the proverbial finding a watch in the forest. It does not belong. NASA needs to be ready in the future. A ship or better yet explorers ready to be launched at a moments notice to study extraordinary evidence found in our star system of intelligent lifeforms observing humanity.
This leads to the second difficulty. Stigma. Let's talk about the NEEDLE in the haystack. Over 300 million potentially habitable worlds in a galaxy that supports both life and intelligent life.
On our world life completely dominates everything. When we find intelligent life less advanced than our own far in the future we will not contact a socially aggressive species. We will not give them that 'smoking gun.' Our astronauts say it best. They look down on our world and there are no borders. They see one race, the human race. When we achieve this on a social level THEY may contact us. Human problems they truly stymie us.
Intelligent lifeforms may have been observing this forum today. This is what they observed.
Tribes (countries) separated. Not acting as one to collaborate on the UAP or UFO phenomena.
The ISS was one of our greatest achievements. It was a human endeavor. Let's build on it.
We can do better. In the future, it is in the best interest of humanity, to do so.
