Also regarding Nano Tech! why hell are we still flying around in 40s tech rocket propulsion for our space missions?

This all in the same period when it was impossible to keep the atomic bomb a secret for very long.

Yeah, exploding two of them over Japan sort of let the cat out of the bag on that one!
Please, what faulty reasoning. Over a hundred thousand people worked on its development, and it was kept secret until one exploded. Even the Trinity tests remained secret. E for effort.

as someone else said you either must think all people who have seen ufos are tremendously stupid and/or love to make things up. whilst that does apply to an awfully high number of such 'sighters' if you will be so off-hand with a case which has the depth of roswell (not just a typical sighting like a single guy seeing a light in the sky) and are even prepared to ridicule its evidence as being nothing better than that of santa clause then your post only serves to make you look as part of the 'religion that there couldn't possibly be any life out there which has visited us' as you would say. and in a case which has the evidence it does that is really even more naive than believing that there was something with ETs at roswell.
and your talking of the matter which is only your opinion (which seems to be that all the evidence must be ignored because looking at it seriously would be silly) in a tone as though you know it for certain only further supports the idea that you are not even prepared to accept any form of possibility for its truth even though by adding up the evidence there has been no conclusive denial which can't be challenged yet. it is actually you who is part of a religion here. it is not possible to find truth by outright disregarding all the evidence just because it's possible that it's not correct.
how utterly ridiculous.

The title of this thread is misleading.
Nothing has been confirmed as being of ET origin.
Some claims have been made, that is all.
Confirmation requires hard, factual proof.
I hope my gut is wrong. Because 99% of claims such as what the article suggests turn out to either be attention seekers, hoaxers or people with mental disorders. Not a good track record. AKA bunk.

The documents and memos that refer to them add much to the crash at Roswell. It is taking a long time, but the truth is coming out in bits and pieces. Thank you for the article, Mr Warren. I always look forward to what you have to say on the subject of flying saucers.

I have to agree with some of the other posters, research into shape memory alloys had begun in the 1930's. It is not inconceivable that the alloys mentioned by frank and in the UFO chronicles article were a natural development of this early research. See excerpt from wikipedia below:
The first reported steps towards the discovery of the shape memory effect were taken in the 1930s. According to Otsuka and Wayman (1998), A. Ölander discovered the pseudoelastic behavior of the Au-Cd alloy in 1932.
If this were from a reliable source, would it not be all over the media?
I think we will need further proof on this before some of us get too carried away.

I think you should go re-read the OP again. It says that it confirms that Roswell was in fact an alien crash, not a weather balloon as the US Government tried to say it was.
If the US Government lied, then we have some real issues that need to be discussed and touched upon.

Just a question - if these "aliens" are so technologically and intelligently superior to us little humans, why don't they just land publically? Why do the obey the puny human leaders and stay hidden?

With little documented evidence to support this, the focus has shifted to a belief in a controlled demolition of the WTC. The claim is that despite two planes being flown into buildings causing massive fires and loss of structural integrity, explosives were planted causing the buildings to collapse.
When exactly were the two bombs dropped on Japan? The 50's?

German born Klaus Fuchs, who had worked at the Manhattan Project gave the gave critical information on the hydrogen bomb and the initial drafts for its development in England and America, to Russian agents in the late 40s.
You can't keep a good secret down.
