They have positively identified UFOs?

If they had, they'd just be FOs, wouldn't they?

IFO is the technical term.

IFXs if they indentify as non-binary.

I wonder how people would actually react if anyone actually believed this had any chance of being something extraterrestrial...


The military would get quite a bit more funding.  So would NASA.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

The Space Force has lost its commander, sadly.  Not a coincidence that it happens just as we hear about alien invasions!  They're here and they've infiltrated the US gov already!  :ph34r:

I would say, statistically speaking, these sightings are most likely time travelers from our distant future delicately setting up the timeline that leads to our future selves eventually inventing time travel so they could go back in time and delicately set up their timeline.

So what you're saying is that time travelers from the future are paving the way for the Trumpenreich.

Maybe we would have been better off with SkyNet. :hmm:

Time travellers from the past seems more probable. It's likely easier to travel "downtime".

Faced with two terrible choices, they made the worst one possible.  At least Sarah Conners could stop SkyNet.

according to the highly scientifically accurate "Time Cop", you can't travel into the future because it's not been created yet.  I don't think Hollywood would get science that wrong.  :hmm: [/i]

Going downtime there are infinite possible branchings to navigate. Going uptime there is only one.

I went into the garden to see the ISS pass over at 00.16 BST, as it was appearing in the Western Sky I saw a meteor trail, but the bright streak persisted....

Gradually a line of white points of light appeared, kept pace with the ISS and got brighter as they flew overhead, there must have been two or three dozen lights space out irregularly in a long train across the sky. 

I guessed what it was, one of Space X satellite trains, possible the lot launched a couple of days ago, but still an almost a sci-fi like apparition and cool as hell.  :cool:

Not seen that before, is it relatively uncommon, has anyone else seen one?

Strange play

He is Spanish. They tend to be salty about English speakers fixing their inferior sexist language.

Though I don't think "object" is really a gendered word.
Quote"This is a Russian warship. I propose you lay down arms and surrender to avoid bloodshed & unnecessary victims. Otherwise, you'll be bombed."

Zmiinyi defenders: "Russian warship, go fuck yourself."

celedhring

Yeah, it was a play on changing "O" to "X" as neutral gender.
