Contact, Acknowledgment, and Disclosure

 [ 19 December 2017:

https://coi.tothestarsacademy.com/

Extraordinary.

Even more congratulations to the entire TTSA team (and Leslie Kean).

This is official acknowledgement of U.S.G. interest in UFOs (contrary to decades of lies); 'semi-official' acknowledgement that UFOs are real, and ETs are here; a very minor, but enormously significant disclosure; and major MSM coverage.

Unfortunately, however... You can spend millions and billions of dollars to investigate and study UFOs for years, but you will never learn who the ETs are, and you will never recreate ('reverse engineer') their technology until you talk to the ETs. This civilization, without major changes in our path, doesn't have enough time left to accomplish what TTSA claims they intend to accomplish. The only way this civilization can survive long enough to travel to the stars is to learn from the ETs about the experiences of other civilizations which reached our stage of technological development. We can begin Contact now:

To the TTSA team (and U.S.G.): please do it now, while we still have time. ]

Watch the 'live broadcast' (40 min.).
 
Congratulations and many thanks to TD and all involved. It's an extraordinary first step, and hopefully will lead to more disclosure, official acknowledgement, and eventually to Contact--because Contact is what's desperately important for our civilization now.

Whether or not they pursue Contact, DOD/CIA, et al., have effectively acknowledged the UFO reality, and if 'official' Acknowledgement (and some 'Disclosure') are initiated or forced, they have an excellent response to any criticism about decades of coverup:

< Of course we denied the reality for years--like all the nations who knew, for National Security reasons. But most Americans have long understood that, and neither Congress, the news media, or the scientific community have seriously pursued the issue in the last few decades. We invited Congress and the news media to ask questions (see Chris Mellon's statement in the broadcast) but they ignored us--and ignored the interest of the American people in the UFO presence. So--don't blame us... >

While not perfect, the TTS operation is a really excellent defensive maneuver (and presumably the last in a series starting with the 'Chase Brandon' affair), and will deflect most of the anger mentioned below to those who are really at fault.

It's impossible to know exactly what's going on inside TTS or the National Security State, but surely they understand that while Contact will be enormously difficult for our civilization, the alternative of ignoring the experiences and mistakes of past civilizations is and will be worse. Don't believe that? Then ask the ETs. 

TTS/AAS & Co. have the ability to initiate the first step in Contact right now, by openly posing the question in 'Real SETI...' or '...Fermi...' to NASA, for example. Perhaps you can find a willing reporter or news organization--and a cooperative NASA spokesperson...]


==========

The big news story will be that for over six decades UFO's have been flying around, violating 'our' airspace, with no respect for our 'laws',  interfering with our strategic 'defense' capabilities, and according to some folks, 'abducting' and 'molesting' our people, etc. And the U.S.G. doesn't know who they are, why they're here, or what their plans are; is helpless to do anything about it; and has lied about their knowledge of the situation since at least 1947.

The ensuing media frenzy, and public anger, in the U.S., and to a lesser degree in other nations, toward various parties, including the ETs, could be very disruptive, and even destructive.

Perhaps the National Security Establishment will consider Contact first--see the 'Covert Diplomatic' option in A Real SETI...--so they'll actually have something useful to convey to the American people. If no response is received then the current situation is unchanged--no notification of or acknowledgment to any party or the public is required. [FEB 2017: Barring certain unusual (and  rather extreme) efforts to establish credibility, the CD option is no longer possible for the U.S. See 'Sample Message...'] If a response is received, on the one hand, it forces disclosure, but on the other, interest in the facts of life in the Universe--and, whatever is initially learned, the fact that the U.S. Government is actually 'doing something' about it--may outweigh the obsessive interest in decades of lies by the U.S.G., and the failure of politicians, the institution of science, and the news media to address the UFO/ET presence.

>How Would The ETs Respond?

If the ETs intend contact as soon as humans are ready [September 2017: they do], and are willing to compromise on the principle of formally communicating only with a 'collective of sovereigns', then they should [will] respond to any CD approach they regard as authentic and credible, i.e., representing an actual message from the head of state, containing a credible promise to quickly deliver the response to the UNSC (UN Security Council). CD allows one nation to initiate a request, and [5/2017 (subject to the decision of UNSC)] gives access to the message from the ETs to representatives of all nations. [5/2017: The initiating country is bound by the disclosure promise(s) made in the initial message (see Sample Message), regardless of UNSC actions (or inaction). The ETs will not respond in a useful way unless they believe their message will be delivered to the world, after a brief period to allow governments and the U.N. to privately analyze and discuss the message, and prepare for the consequences of public disclosure.]


There are several possible explanations for a non-response to a CD operation, such as failure to detect the signal, or inability to establish the message is authentic and credible. These possibilities could be minimized by certain partially overt actions taken as the effort is initiated.

What would they say? One possibility is "We will provide a more substantive response to an open request initiated by a multinational group or the UNSC." Or, more simply: "Open multinational, UNSC, or UNGA initiated." While reasonable in one sense, in that it's indicative of a very 'even-handed' approach with respect to the interests of all nations, it also ensures the process of initiating a request for communications will be 'bogged down', if not buried, perhaps indefinitely, in the morass of UN bureaucracy and diplomacy.

A better option for the ET response might be delivery of one or more data storage and/or communications device(s), which humans could interface with using their technology. The problem, of course, with delivering one or more physical objects, is that some humans, including perhaps most scientific 'experts', would fear infections from ET microbes, and might not trust even explicit assurances from ETs that the objects are 'sterile'. And so the objects might be destroyed, or end up locked in some biological containment facility, and never used. For now, therefore, this is simply not a practical option, unless the initiators of the CD (or other) approach decide in advance that they will trust explicit assurances that any objects delivered will be free of infectious organisms, and request such assurances in the initial message. Absent this, some form of optical communication between a ship and a ground station is most appropriate for now.

The OD (overt diplomatic) national or multinational approach is a bit of a fantasy, unless the announcement is made exactly as the operation is initiated. Otherwise, the rest of the world will loudly complain, and the UN will attempt to assert control, and stop the effort, or at least cripple it with a diplobabble message. Moreover it will force disclosure or acknowledgment, and the world will have to deal with all the resulting social problems, without any useful information from the ETs.

By far the most likely to elicit a response from one or more of the ET groups would be a rational public request from the UN. The most probable response would be a message, and an end to actions solely intended to make their presence known, i.e., the limited demonstrations of presence which have characterized their behavior for decades. [FEB 2017: The ETs absolutely will respond to a U.N. message--but perhaps not at the exact time or in the exact manner requested.]

The UN, of course, has already spoken on the issue of contact. While their response is, on the one hand quite honest and reasonable, on the other hand, it was a rather sad, and perhaps an obituary or even epitaph class declaration of the primitive and psychologically fragile nature of our civilization. [UN press conference video, 13 October 2010.] For now, the UN, speaking for the nations of the world, has sent a message to the ETs--somewhere in between 'go away' and 'sorry, we just can't deal with reality now--if ever'. Of course, this is not news to the ETs.

>U.S.G. Disclosure

Forget about it, for now. "The files were destroyed, if they ever existed, the people who created the 'coverup'--if there ever was a coverup--are dead, and, it's all S&M [Sources and Methods]." The S&M tactic--the claim that Disclosure would cause extremely grave harm to the 'National Security' of the U.S.--while total and incredibly stupid nonsense, would be highly effective. Most Americans (and most politicians) will buy it, especially after the Congressional Investigation and the "Commission to Make the UFO Coverup Problem Go Away" are announced.

>"Congress Will Get to the Bottom of This (Coverup)".

Not a chance. Many members of Congress will support, overtly or covertly, the elements of the NSE who were and are opposed to 'Disclosure' (as opposed to simple 'acknowledgment').

Some 'totalitarian' governments have erased their people's history, and it will be seen that this is exactly what the NSE has accomplished. The only practical approach is an 'historical' commission, and even they will never learn anything close to 'the truth, whole truth, and nothing but the truth'.

[FEB 2017: If you're interested in Contact, perhaps you'll consider looking at the Contact and the Future posts (Parts 1-4). Though somewhat dated, most of the points are still relevant. While it's not 'too late' to even consider Contact, the prospects for a positive outcome (for humankind) have grown dimmer over the years, and especially in the last few months.
 
Only the ETs know the whole story from the larger perspective. They have a wealth of information on the history of UFOs and the U.S.G. (and other nations). The best single source of information on this subject at present is "UFOs and Government: A Historical Inquiry", by Michael D. Swords and Robert Powell (et al.) (see Recent Books).]

  2. UFOs sure are real. I think you should hire some good psychics, and go and check them out.
