Most Americans Believe Intelligent Life Exists on Other Planets and We Have Nothing to Fear from UFOs

Article by Chris Ciaccia                                                         July 2, 2021                                                               (dailymail.co.uk)

• Prior to release of the Pentagon’s report on UFOs, Pew Research surveyed 10,417 American adults between June 14th and June 24th about the chances of intelligent extraterrestrial existing and even visiting the Earth. The findings were made public June 30th.

• Matching a separate survey released by CBS News in May (see ExoArticle here), nearly two-thirds (65%) of all Americans believe that extraterrestrials exist on other planets, and 87% of them think that extraterrestrials are not a threat to humankind one way or another.

• Fifty-one percent of respondents believe that the UFOs/UAPs reported by the US military are ‘likely evidence of intelligent life outside of Earth. Of these respondents, 40% believe there is ‘probably’ evidence of extraterrestrial life and 11 % believe there is ‘definitely’ evidence. Not surprisingly, those who think there is intelligent life outside Earth are more inclined to see military reports of UFOs as evidence of an extraterrestrial source behind those UFOs. On June 29th, after acknowledging that he had read the unreleased classified report, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said that he thinks ‘we’re not alone’.

• Additionally, 51 % of Americans surveyed by Pew think if it exists, extraterrestrial life is not a threat at all, while 36% perceive them as a ‘minor’ threat. Only one-in-ten say that UFOs are a ‘major threat to US national security’. In fact, 17 % said intelligent life would be friendly, 7 % said they’d be unfriendly, and 74 % said they are indifferent to us.

• Some segments of the public are more likely to believe in intelligent life on other planets. About three-quarters (76 %) of adults under age 30 say intelligent life exists on other planets, versus 57 % of Americans 50 and older. Men are slightly more likely (70%) than women (60%) to believe in intelligent life outside of this planet.

 

Nearly two-thirds of all Americans believe that extraterrestrials exist on other planets, but 87% of them think that they are not a threat in one way or another, according to a new survey.

Pew Research surveyed 10,417 American adults between June 14 and June 24 and found that 65 percent of respondents believe that extraterrestrials exist on other planets, a similar figure to a survey released by CBS News in May.

Fifty-one percent of respondents believe that unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) reported by the military are ‘likely evidence of intelligent life outside of Earth.’

Of that figure, 40 percent believe there is ‘probably’ evidence of extraterrestrial life and 11 percent believe there is ‘definitely’ evidence.

Conversely, 47 percent of respondents – believe the reports are probably (36 percent) or definitely (11 percent) not evidence of life outside this planet.

‘Perhaps not surprisingly, those who think there is intelligent life outside Earth are more inclined than others to see military reports of UFOs as evidence (69 percent and 16 percent, respectively),’ Pew wrote in a statement.

On Monday, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said that he thinks ‘we’re not alone’ after acknowledging that he had read the classified report.

Additionally, 87 percent of Americans surveyed by Pew think extraterrestrial life – if it exists – is not a threat at all (51 percent of respondents think) or a minor threat (36 percent).

Conversely, just one-in-ten say that UFOs are a ‘major threat to US national security.’

When asked for a best guess, 17 percent of respondents said intelligent life would be friendly, 7 percent said unfriendly and 74 percent said neither.

‘Some segments of the public are more likely than others to believe that intelligent life exists on other planets,’ Pew added.

‘This view is especially pronounced among younger Americans. About three-quarters (76 percent) of adults under age 30 say intelligent life exists on other planets, versus 57 percent of those 50 and older.’

Now Would Be a Good Time to Know the Truth About Extraterrestrials

Article by Brandon Gage                                                June 30, 2021                                                        (hillreporter.com)

• Recently, the NASA Administrator Bill Nelson, a former astronaut and Democratic United States Senator from Florida, admitted on CNN that he believes that there is intelligent life elsewhere in the Universe and that he could not rule out the possibility that a small percentage of UFOs have otherworldly origins. “Are we alone? Personally, I don’t think we are,” Nelson said. “People are hungry for this kind of information and they’re going to keep searching.”

• This is an extraordinary statement for a NASA Administrator to make given the US government’s history of cover-ups and denials surrounding the subject of aliens and spaceships from other planets visiting Earth. If the government is slowly grooming the public about the existence of life beyond our world (or our dimension), it could not come at a more crucial time for our species.

• Conventional wisdom states that society would break down into chaos if people were suddenly informed that there are extraterrestrial beings out there with technologies that could be millions of years ahead of ours – keeping tabs on us. Resulting doomsday predictions of mass riots, war, alien invasions, and religious extremism have been popularized in the media since the 1950s when the modern UFO craze began. Those concerns might have been valid during the Cold War when the United States and the Soviet Union were ready to annihilate life on Earth at a moments’ notice. But we no longer live in that world.

• Despite our small differences, humanity is interconnected like never before. Geographical borders no longer divide us. Instead, demagogues and power-hungry charlatans have exploited our technologies to manipulate the population into believing that neighbors are each other’s enemies and that deeply-held personal beliefs – no matter how ridiculous – hold more weight than objective truths.

• If it were to be revealed that Earth is and has been visited by extraterrestrial beings from another part of the galaxy, it would be a uniting wake-up call for every human on this planet. If ETs are hostile, they could wipe us out without so much as a warning and we would be powerless to stop it. That has not happened, so there is little reason to believe that it will.

• In the meantime, we are living through a real-time disaster movie of our own making because our leaders chose to ignore the science and focus on short-term financial gain. The ‘summer of hell’ has begun in North America with temperatures soaring past 120 degrees Fahrenheit in Canada and in the Pacific Northwest. Sea level rise is being blamed for the deadly condo collapse in Sunrise, Florida. In the American West, a historic megadrought is literally draining Lake Mead and other sources of water for millions of people. The bill for such grotesque negligence is coming due, and fast. If someone is out there, now would be the time to make it known. Our collective destiny may depend on it.

 

I was an X-Files kid. I still binge-watch reruns on Hulu. That quintessential 90s show inspired a generation to look up at the sky and wonder what or who is really out there. The answer may be closer than ever.

Last weekend, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Administrator Bill Nelson – a former astronaut and Democratic United States Senator from Florida – admitted on CNN that he believes that there is intelligent life elsewhere in the Universe and that he could not rule out the possibility that a small percentage of unidentified aerial phenomena – more popularly known as UFOs – have otherworldly origins.

“My feeling is that there is clearly something there. It may not necessarily be extraterrestrial, but if it is a technology that some of our adversaries have then we’d better be concerned,” he said. “Remember, the universe is so large. We have a program in NASA called the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence. But thus far we don’t have any receipt of a communication from something that’s intelligent.”

                             Bill Nelson

But, he added, that does not mean humanity has no neighbors in the cosmos.

“Are we alone? Personally, I don’t think we are,” he said. “The universe is so big. It’s 13 and a half billion years ago when the universe started. That’s pretty big. People are hungry for this kind of information and they’re going to keep searching.”

Those are extraordinary statements for someone in Nelson’s position to be making given the United States government’s history of coverups and denials surrounding the subject of aliens and spaceships from other planets visiting Earth. His words are even more amazing when coupled with recent footage released by the Pentagon of military encounters with unidentifiable craft speeding through the sky and bouncing in and out of the ocean, seemingly defying the known laws of physics.

Could Advanced Intelligent Life Exist Right Here on Earth?

Article by Arjun Walia                                           May 8, 2021                                               (collective-evolution.com)

• UFOs have become a big topic of discussion within the mainstream. These objects perform maneuvers and travel at speeds that no known machinery can. They truly defy our understanding of aerodynamics and, in some cases, physics. Now the question is: who is the manufacturer and operator of these UFOs?

• There is testimonial evidence that these objects are not human made. The former director of the Pentagon’s UFO program, Lue Elizondo, recently gave an interview to the NY Post saying that he had a meeting with a very senior Department of Defense official who agreed that these UFO craft were not of human origin. Former Air Force Colonel Ross Dedrickson also claimed to have information that these objects were not human made, and from what he knew, the beings are benevolent and concerned about the well-being of our planet. Beyond these testimonies are documented cases of sightings and “contact experiences” that point to a non-human origin.

• The ancient Greek philosopher Plato distinguished between the animals and men who reside on the Earth and the so-called ‘elementals’ that dwell in the ‘ether’ (or ‘aether’) of the Earth. Humans can only see within a tiny frequency of the entire visible light spectrum. The truth is, much of our “reality” isn’t even perceivable to our human senses. Quantum mechanics and post-material science has shown us that the “invisible” parts make up the vast majority of ‘space’. Even Rene Descartes proposed the theory that what we perceive as space is completely filled with matter in various states.

• Who is to say that life does not dwell in these ethereal realms? Stories can be found in ancient Buddhist and Vedic philosophy, along with oral stories passed down from Native cultures throughout the world, which refer to ‘magical’ and ‘mythical’ lands that co-exist alongside our reality. The German-Swiss physician and alchemist Paracelsus wrote: “Man lives in the exterior elements and the Elementals live in the interior elements. The latter have dwellings and clothing, manners and customs, languages and governments of their own…”

• What’s interesting is that these mysterious UFOs are commonly observed “taking off” at tremendous speeds and entering or exiting our oceans. Sometimes when they “fly away” they seem to ‘dematerialize’. It truly calls into question what we think we know about the nature of reality. And chances are, not all objects originate from the same source.

• It is disconcerting that most people do not see UFOs as legitimate reality unless and until it is presented as such by the mainstream media. Footage had to be verified by the Pentagon before people would deem them as real. This highlights just how reliant humanity has become on these media sources for information. But it is difficult to trust mainstream media, or government for that matter, to get an accurate depiction of what’s really happening. Perhaps the UFO phenomenon is one that requires a citizens’ initiative as well, to get an honest depiction of UFOs.

• One thing to look out for is the US government’s suspicion that these objects are Russian or Chinese in origin. This narrative is meant to heighten the national security state, for no legitimate reason, while simultaneously controlling the extraterrestrial hypothesis. The government paints UFOs as a threat, even though the vast majority of the time these objects perform evasive maneuvers to avoid our own aircraft. We always seem to be the ones chasing them.

 

          Ethereal beings on this earth?

Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs), now commonly known as Unidentified Aerial

                                 Plato

Phenomenon (UAPs) have become a big topic of discussion within the mainstream as of late. We are talking about objects that have been photographed, videotaped, tracked on radar, and seen by high ranking military personnel as well as civilians on the ground and in air-craft. These objects perform maneuvers and travel at speeds no known man made piece of machinery can. They truly defy our understanding of aerodynamics and, and in some case

                             Paracelsus

s, physics.

The next discussion to arise is, are those manning these craft human or something else?

Based on my years of research, just as there was strong evidence for the existence of these objects decades ago when they were deemed a conspiracy theory, there is strong evidence now, and in my opinion, there is evidence these objects are not

                Rene Descartes

human made.

As far as credible sources that support this idea, Colonel Robert Friend, in his very last interview before his death, who was a director of Project Blue Book from 1958-1962, suggested that the U.S. Air Force knew what these objects were even at that time. The former director of the Pentagon’s UFO program, Lue Elizondo, recently gave an interview to the NY Post saying that he had a meeting with a very senior Department

of Defense official who mentioned he knew the craft were not of human origin as well. Former Air Force Colonel Ross Dedrickson also claimed to have information that these objects were not human made, and from what he knew, the beings are benevolent, concerned about the well being of our planet.

I recognize not all people will consider these sources ‘credible evidence.’

Beyond these testimonies are things like documented cases of sightings or “contact” experiences. According to these cases, people report both benevolent and malevolent experiences, often linked to the UFO phenomenon.

So, if they are not human, what are they? The obvious truth is, we don’t know, but there’s no harm in speculating.
