When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.

I have no reason to doubt Carol Rosin. She's obviously a very well connected lady and she's clearly passionate about her work. But I disliked the way people like Wernher Von Braun were made acceptable to the public after being suitably whitewashed. He was a nazi. All the way up to his death. Whatever he did, he did to push his own agenda.

him credibility? Did McClelland really see things 'they' don't want you to know about? Score one for the
'conspiracy nuts'!

Wouldn't not being alone constitute something not being from planet Earth, or even this dimension? Point being, coming from another dimension is also extra-terrestrial.
You need to think out of the box more. It's just like the people who say that alien visitation is impossible because they can't exceed light speed.

Ver-r-r-r-r-ry misleading and misused quote from a FICTIONAL hero.
But not surprising for what passes for 'ufological wisdom'.
The first part of the aphorism is the tricky part.
"When you have eliminated the impossible"...
This is not the same as "When you THINK you have eliminated the impossible..."
You can be as sincere, as pure of heart, as asquare-jawed as the best of them -- but complete confidence in your own omniscience is no proof of said knowledge.
Time and again, even the best pro-UFO investigations have been revealed as failing to produce a complete list of candidate explanations.
Since the FULL list is not eliminated because it was never in the possession of the researcher, the 'argument by elimination' produces results indistinguishable from alimentary elimination. Smells the same, too.
That somebody does not realize this shows they are not thinking clearly about a very hazy subject, which is a recipe for self-delusion and time-wasting.
Somebody had to tell you this. Sorry it had to be me.

It doesn't matter who says UFOs are controlled by alien intelligence. That's unless you're one of the members here that feel a title adds weight to a claim. You know the ones, they will preface a comment or post by saying: "Harvard professor x says..." or something similar in regard to UFOs/Aliens. But, in the real world, it's still only personal opinions. Without any tangible evidence to back up these extraordinary claims, it doesn't mean much.

I do not need a professor to tell me they are real, I have seen them for myself. On one occasion a very large number of the people where I lived saw them and reported them. I can't really say who or what was controlling them, I can only say that they do exist and that someday we will find that Einstein theories were wrong. I say that because they did not obey his laws of physics.
It is the nature of fear to lash out at things we can't comprehend. Only the fearful refuse to believe the unbelievable. They sound like all the people who said the world was flat lol. Where would we be if everyone was afraid and felt that way.

With billions of people in the world, the likely scenario is for one of those to come forward with something real that can't be explained. Not a scientist reading through literature, seeing photos or video, or hearing stories second-hand. I find it silly everytime someone mentions an "expert" or scientists opinion in reference to UFOs/Aliens. As if that somehow really seals in concrete this means something. No, it's only believers once again reaching for something, anything, to uphold this belief, when there hasnt been anything tangible in the 65+ year popularity of the subject. This type of thing is a poor attempt to put validity to the subject. With the thousands of apparent physical Earthly encounters via landings, crashes, alien being sightings, abductions, etc. it's not at all complicated, it's a very simple answer: Find one piece of alien material. That's it! Still waiting...
