MUFON to receive major funding from billionaire backer
March 6, 1:50 AM
Billionaire real estate investor and entrepreneur Robert Bigelow of Las Vegas, Nevada is now betting his bucks on MUFON to find valuable new knowledge about alien propulsion systems. Bigelow who has long been known to give millions of dollars to fund serious UFO research has just concluded a deal with MUFON to furnish rapid response teams of Field Investigators to be deployed within 24 hours to the scene of a major UFO event, the kind designated as Category 2 or 3 in the classification system devised by legendary UFO researcher Jacques Vallee. These are the rarer cases where either physical traces are left or physiological effects are caused in the witness. Bigelow has hired 50 top-flight scientists to assist MUFON in this endeavor to function as consultants and to do expensive lab analysis of alien materials gathered at the location of a UFO event. Bigelow, who never does anything on a small scale, a few years ago founded BAASS (Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies) with the incredibly ambitious goal of putting a commercial hotel up in orbit around the earth. He thinks that even one category 2 or 3 case if properly investigated can yield significant scientific paydirt. Whatever high-tech equipment needed by the investigators on the scene will be drop-shipped to them overnight by BAASS. These high-profile cases will be investigated using the strictest methods of scientific protocol. This is a new day for MUFON which from its inception has been a volunteer organization. Now its Field Investigators will be paid to do their work. Bigelow who has been known to keep his findings on the UFO subject secret has agreed per his contract with MUFON to hold nothing back from this organization that is revealed in the BAASS lab analysis of materials supplied by MUFON. This project which just launched on March 1st is code named SIP (for Star Impact Project) . It is a pilot experiment and will be reviewed on June 30th to see if it has proven successful enough to warrant funding for the rest of the year. Understandably there is a lot of excitement at MUFON Headquarters and among its membership. MUFON's stated mission is the scientific study of the UFO phenomenon for the benefit of mankind. Now with this major infusion of funds from Bigelow, it will be able to carry out this mission more efficiently and skillfully than ever before. And Bigelow possibly will get what he wants to forward his goal. How this will all work out is hard to guess. This is something that has never been tried before. They are moving into unchartered territory here. In any case, Bigelow's investing so heavily in MUFON's ability to make SIP a successful search and find operation for greater knowledge about alien technology is some extremely good PR for MUFON, and it sure will gain greater credibility in the eyes of the general public as a result.

I think your making a mistake in assuming the FTL contradiction just automaticaly refutes all the expert witness testimony and radar/sonar
corellated evidence.
If you were to look at the USO thread posted by another moderator you may conclude theres most likely an underground/undersea
'explanation of origin' for the many unknown objects that have been captured,plotted,tracked and corellated on radar/sonar over the years.
Many of these objects seemingly defy the known laws of aeronautics;travel in formation;execute right angle turns without slowing down:arrive at immediate stops from high speed and generaly display completely unprecedented flight characteristics and aerial manouverability - to write them all off just because of some
speculative opinion based on fuzzy logic and presumptuous reasoning seems a little irresponsible.

I actually am not convinced many of the species we have had contact with have our best interests. Agendas are sometimes well outside of our own agenda to survive and advance. We are not the whole focus of these species by any stretch.
I am saying, that the study of the technologies, the accounts by thousands of people, scientists and officials, crashed hardware and encounter gifts and left behind technology and evidence can result in information we can assimilate into our own technology for advancement and good.
So far it has been horded for military, multinational corporate and political stratigic personal gain and superiority. That is the cork in the bottle!...
...without an enemy to fight, in absence of a conflict, there is not strategy: strategy requires improvement, and while civil technology can wait, the military one CANNOT. We are not an happy planet, in my humble opinion

Nasa's "historic mission" to hunt for life on other planets has begun thanks to perfect weather conditions in the US.
A rocket carrying the powerful Kepler telescope took off from Cape Canaveral in Florida bang on schedule at 3.48am UK time.
The craft - named after the German 17th Century astrophysicist Kepler - will search for planets like Earth in a faraway corner of the galaxy.

I am ultimately informed on this subject.
I not only know some of the people whom worked on those videos, I am an astronomical illustrator, and science media person who has worked for NASA, SETI and other science organizations. I am one of the guys that explains such science to people, because I know it and are a subject authority.
I am also an amateur astronomer have built telescopes and observed deep sky for over 30 years. I model galaxies and planets in 3D and do illustrations for scientists to help them explain theory. Your videos don't really change my point of view.
I know the point you are making, but making the bed when your house is on fire might not be prudent.

How have we touched our galaxy at all (barring any Spookified Black Ops #, if truly applicable)? Wouldn't we be required to at least send a probe all the way to the Alpha Centauri or Polaris (I forget which is closer) systems to have touched elsewhere in the galaxy?

$600 Million blasted into space today says otherwise:
Life in the universe and intelligent life that is physically and mentally capable to travel extreme distances is a totally different thing. Think about it...
The biggest fallacy I see is that people take the term life (which could be mold)right to aliens as the next step, and it is actually so many steps that it approaches zero probability.
