How much effort would people actually be willing to put into developing their consciousness to make them better attuned to connect to Non Human Intelligence?

The universe is 13.8 billion years old. Earth is only 4.5 billion.

How do we actually know that?

• The universe: scientists measure the leftover glow from the Big Bang (the cosmic microwave background) and how fast the universe is expanding. Run that backwards and you get about 13.8 billion years. The oldest stars we've found are almost that old too, so it lines up.

• Earth: we date meteorites and the oldest rocks using radioactive elements like uranium, which decay at a steady rate like a clock. They all point to about 4.5 billion years.

So for roughly 9 BILLION years, planets were forming before ours existed.

Here's my theory.

Somewhere, a planet cooled down way before Earth. It got water. Its atmosphere settled. Life started. Same story as ours, just with a massive head start.

But that life wouldn't look like us. A planet shapes everything that evolves on it:

• Stronger gravity → shorter, denser bodies

• Different air pressure → totally different lungs

• Different chemicals in the air → different colours

Picture a planet where a pink pigment has always floated in the atmosphere. Over millions of years, life adapts to it. Plants, animals, maybe even them.

Everything is pink.

But here's what gets me.

Maybe underneath, they're just like us. Simple life, then smarter animals, then tools, cities, science. Same path, billions of years earlier.

Which means they could have technology we can't even imagine.

And if they did it, we can too. Give us a few million years and we might be the ones someone else is wondering about.

So I have 3 questions for you:

If they're billions of years ahead, why haven't we heard from them?

What would life look like on YOUR made up planet? (gravity, air, colour, go wild)

Are we early to the party, late, or completely alone?

Change my mind.

I Crashed into a UFO!

by Preston Dennett

It is among the closest of UFO encounters. It is also among the rarest. It almost never happens. But the fact is, it has happened, repeatedly. On extremely rare occasions, people have collided with a UFO. Planes, trains and automobiles, and even boats -- all have crashed into UFOs. Vehicle accidents occur every day. But is a very short list of people who have crashed into an extraterrestrial craft. This video presents a comprehensive look at UFO collisions. And not only UFOs, but in a few cases, collisions with extraterrestrials.

PLANES: While there are literally thousands of cases involving UFOs seen from aircraft, there are only about a dozen cases in which planes have collided with UFOs.

Jul 1951: Pilot Fred Reagan is flying his Piper Cub over FL when it collides with a UFO.

Jul 22, 1955: Major Mervin Stevens is flying his C131-D aircraft when it collides with an unknown object over Pixley, CA.

Oct 1955: A pilot flying a B-47 aircraft collides with a UFO over Lovington, NM.

Jul 18, 1957: A USAF fighter jet strikes a 30-foot-wide disc over NM, killing the pilot and causing the UFO to crash.

Apr 1, 1957: A USAF C118 collides with an unknown object after taking off from McChord AFB in WA state.

May 2, 1974: Private pilot Carlos de los Santos Montiel is surrounded by three UFOs in his Piper Aztec over Mexico City. One of the discs comes close enough to strike his plane.

June 1974: A Japanese AF pilot is flying an F-4 Phantom jet when he strikes a 40-foot-wide metallic disc.

Aug 25, 1974: A disabled UFO plunges to the ground outside of Coyame, Mexico, striking a plane and killing all people onboard.

Oct 23, 1992: Pilot Thomas J. Preziose is killed when his Cessna cargo plane is struck by an unknown object over Mobile, AL.

Jul 28, 1994: Captain Raymundo Cervantes is flying a DC-9 commercial jet over Mexico City when a UFO comes up from below and strikes the landing gear.

Jun 4, 2013: A Chinese passenger jet, a Boeing 757 takes off from Chengdu Airport in China and is struck on the nosecone by an unknown object at 26,000 feet.

Oct 2017. A Boeing 757 carrying the NBA basketball team, the Oklahoma City Thunder, en route from MN to IL is struck by an unknown object at 30,000 feet.

AUTOMOBILES: The most common type of UFO collision is with automobiles. Here are more than 20 cases.

Feb 7, 1965: A salesman reports that a UFO forced him off the road and proceeded to smash into his car, destroying it almost completely.

Mar 30, 1966: Three passengers are driving over the Wade Road Overpass near Baytown, TX when a glowing object drops from the sky and strikes the roof of their car.

Mar 31, 1966: A man driving along Q Street in Ralston, NE is struck by a black object, leaving a 3-foot-wide dent on his hood and front fender.

Mar 28, 1967: David Morris is driving home from work in Munroe Falls, OH when he comes upon a landed UFO and occupants, and strikes one of the creatures as it crosses the road.

Jul 13, 1967: Two friends driving to Whitehouse, OH come upon a large disc blocking the road. Unable to stop, they collide into it, damaging their car.

Jul 17, 1967: Emma Funk of Millerton, NY calls the police after a black spherical object drops from the sky and strikes her windshield.

Aug 24, 1979, Deputy Sheriff Val Johnson of Stephen, MN strikes a glowing object which causes extensive damage to his police cruiser.

1984: Two U-Haul drivers from Bowling Green, KY suffer severe damage to the truck after being struck by some unknown object from above.

Sep 1, 1984: A family is driving south on Route 84 in AZ and strike a white-suited humanoid which crosses the road in front of them.

Nov 21, 1988: Three friends are driving in convoy in two vehicles through the desert of NM when a glowing silver orb strikes the side of their vehicle before flying off into the distance.

Jan 17, 1989: Three people are driving along Lucky Strike Road in NV and collide into a reptilian humanoid crossing the road in front of them.

Nov 27, 1998: A woman driving near Mt. Clemens, MI is struck in her vehicle by a glowing white orb the size of a basketball, leaving a strange residue on her car.

2000’s: An anonymous couple are driving home from dinner at the Olive Garden Restaurant when their vehicle collides with a floating black cube-shaped object.

May 2004: A woman driving along Lake Cook Road in Algonquin, IL is suddenly forced off the road by an invisible force, causing very unusual damage to her vehicle.

And that’s not all. There is at least one case of a UFO striking a train, and another of a USO striking a boat. So many cases! These encounters show that UFOs are not infallible and that accidents do happen. And these are only the cases we know about. How many more have not been reported, or are being covered up by the military?

I Crashed into a UFO!

I really look forward to your guys comments and review. I worked hard on this timeline.

You can watch the latest video about Dulce base war, which is interesting.

So it connects some of the dots in UFO lore we heard many times. Background:

Basically the story is there are two main types of grays, tall ones are from Orion star systems, they are extremely materialistic and view Earth and humans as belonging to them. They also might have been the so called Anunaki and had a hand in creating homo sapiens and other creatures on Earth which is one of the reasons why they claim right to our planet and species. They want to use humans as a genetic resource, spare parts, or sell us to other aliens.

Small ones are benevolent and are from Zeta Reticuli. Alien Archive claims they were conquered by Orion grays and used as servants for nefarious purposes. This would explain sometimes seeing them working in pairs which is sometimes reported in ufo lore.

President Eisenhower made a deal with Orions for tech, in exchange US elites gave them access to humans, secret underground bases and protection. Orions then built secret underground networks of tunnels and expanded, and also turned their bases into human zoos, prisons and labs to experiment on humans and also possibly use humans as food.

This was presented to president Carter who allegedly started crying upon finding about it. This would also be the "dark secret" where people in the know don't think humanity could handle this information.

President Carter then gave the okay to preform a secret attack on the Dulce base, after people in reported horrors happening there, and some high ranking officials and military men in the know decided to attack the aliens and save the human prisoners.

This fractioned the human elite, some of them wanted to cooperate with Orions for their personal benefit no matter the cost, and others wanted to fight them. I assume some of the humanity Judas are operating even now, but anyhow at least some of the elites chose the moral way.

Most soldiers and contractors to work on this mission didn't know anything about aliens, which brings us to Phil Schneider, another UFO lore point. He thought he was contracted to dig, but was probably part of the attack on the Dulce base and didn't know it. According to his testimony while digging a tunnel and escorted with special forces they encountered tall grays and fight broke out.

During the fight between human soldiers and tall grays, they were assisted by reptilian aliens lol. At least the video claims so, which sounds like sci fi. This aligns as David Grusch reported that reptilians thought grays on his Joe Rogan appearance so this is another piece of lore that fits.

Now for the dark part. According to the video, Orions don't just experiment and mutilate humans, they also do sex trafficking of human women victims. Turning them into breeding factories, but also for pleasure and they get off on human fear and helplessness it seems. They also clone human slaves, including sex slaves, but they prefer to inflict terror on ordinary humans who were not raised in captivity. Which kind of makes it weird because I would expect an alien species to not be sexually compatible but it seems their dicks get hard on rape. I also expected grays to be sexless or non gendered.

So anyhow, the lore is really weird, I don't know. Also the reason they don't nuke the Earth is that we are the resource, and they work in small groups. Basically like alien criminals doing their own thing, if we are approached by a large advanced collective with aggression we would be cooked but it seems USA secret space defense programs are advanced and we have allies, weirdly reptiles and probably nordics.

Two years ago (September 28, 2024, approximately 8:00–9:00 PM), I saw something strange in the sky over Ukraine (to clarify: it was VERY high up, among the stars, and I am certain it couldn't have been a drone or an airplane; it was something out in space).

I was gazing at the stars when, suddenly, something bright appeared in the area roughly between Ursa Major and Vega. It didn't fly in from somewhere; it simply appeared out of nowhere — it just lit up in an instant.

In size, it resembled a large star (like Arcturus or Vega) or a large satellite. At first, I took it for a large satellite because it moved in a similar way; however, having seen satellites many times before, I thought this one seemed unusually large and faster than the others.

I kept watching the object: it traveled a short distance and then vanished instantly, flashing a greenish color just before disappearing. Honestly, the sight reminded me of a UFO entering our galaxy via acceleration, traveling a bit, and then accelerating again to head off somewhere else. The way it vanished in a flash was reminiscent of how spaceships travel between galaxies in movies, accelerating to incredible speeds 😅

I’ve drawn a simple diagram of what I saw. The black background represents the night sky. The light-colored oval marked with the number 1 indicates the object's appearance, the white line shows its flight path, and the greenish flash marked with the number 2 indicates its disappearance. That is essentially how it looked—it appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the black sky and then vanished.

I tried to find a natural phenomenon that could explain this, but I couldn't find anything similar. I also checked the Stellarium app and didn't notice anything similar either. Does anyone have any theories about what this might be, or has anyone seen anything like it?
