I’m not going to open that video because YouTube would then think that’s the sort of thing I want to watch, but does the video explain why so much time, effort, and money have been spent for decades by everyone from NASA to backyard amateur astronomers looking for, and hoping to find evidence of alien life, and then “shuts down” a passive observation device when it’s found? And what do people think about a telescope? That it’s a signaling device that will reveal our presence to the marauders from outer space with their How to Serve Man cookbooks? What about the gazillion other telescopes and binoculars that people look up into the skies with? Do they need to be “shut down” as well? The effect that the confirmed discovery of intelligent (or even any) extraterrestrial life would have on countless people’s belief systems is something that I ponder because it would probably be very significant. But “Don’t look and it will go away”? I am willing to accept that “the government” can and does make many bizarre decisions, but such a discovery is something that will be announced by a supposed authority on YouTube—‽ ► 6.4/93.6 | |||

The approach I took: I assumed both assumptions, NASA shutdown the James Webb Space Telescope and James Webb Space Telescope Confirms Alien Existence, to be true. Then, I searched for verification of each. What I found surprised me. I expected to find that NASA shutdown and rebooted the telescope as part of a software upgrade or something. Instead, I found from almost exactly one year ago: BBC - Tantalising sign of possible life on faraway world What I can’t find is anything the could possibly be called a shutdown happening after September 12th of last year. Since one assumptions is false, then the conjunction of both assumptions is false. I spent way too much time reading tabloid headlines while waiting in line at the grocery store in my youth. | |||

Was it shutdown? ... and what evidence? From the story linked by trapper189, it seems speculative at best: Nasa's James Webb Space Telescope may have discovered tentative evidence of a sign of life on a faraway planet. It may have detected a molecule called dimethyl sulphide (DMS). On Earth, at least, this is only produced by life. The researchers stress that the detection on the planet 120 light years away is "not robust" and more data is needed to confirm its presence . Researchers have also detected methane and CO2 in the planet's atmosphere. Detection of these gases could mean the planet, named K2-18b, has a water ocean. https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-66786611 "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Guys, be cool. This guy only has 41 posts. He's new. Probably never even had to research a link befo ... wait, his forum name is 41? And he's actually got 10,000 plus posts? Been a member for years?

I’m not even sure I’d call it a bullshit detector, if there is even a whif of a question, the default assumption is that it is of course bullshit unless proven otherwise. Some things look like they might be interesting enough to take the time to research and prove one way or the other, but most just get dismissed as bullshit without even bothering to check. Drive on… | |||

I remember some time in the mid 50's, there was a sighting of an object in a field off Route 250 near what is now a VA Power facility. Later, some Government agency inspected the site were they found burnt grass and some radiation was detected. Then what follows are reported sightings that turn out to be false when people get scared and report their own shadow.  Seems there have been more sightings in recent years mostly by pilots. Here is a sighting that had the same MO of the car engine stopping and bright lights of a UFO. https://www.whsv.com/2023/04/2...g-chaos-that-ensued/ 41 | |||

I guess some people will be eating crow. I worked with a guy in the early 80's that UFO's were has passion...looks like he was right.
