Conspiracy Theory Researcher Mick West discusses the 2021 government UFO report

In June 2021, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released a report on UAP's (commonly known as UFOs). Does this mean that flying saucers are real? Has the government finally admitted there are physics-defying craft in the sky? The answer depends on who you ask.
After contributing his expertise to CNN, The Guardian, and USA Today, Mick West joins us for Skeptics in the Virtual Diner to discuss what the UAP report contains, the "official" UFO videos that preceded it, who's behind it all, and what it means for the study UFOs.

As a lifelong UFO 'believer' it is interesting to hear the other side and there are very valid crits against the UFO community, at the end of the day its about finding the truth even if 2 sides approach it from very different paths.

I hope there are more people like Mick West who are will to take on the task of analyzing phenomenon using the objective evidence only. Eyewitness evidence is Subjective by its nature and there for it's not evidence, it's an experience.

What if 10 people see someone get murdered?

Ive been a skeptic for decades. But the testimonial evidencebfrom credible people have made me a true believer. Trying to take a pic of something thousands of years more advanced than an iphone would be like trying to take a pic of an f1 car with a camera from the 1800s.

@@Greylobster there's loads of photographic and video evidence. Plus witness testimony. How much evidence do you need?

[@tonylee8784]

@@Greylobster my anology for cameras was more to explain why most pics are blurry. I don't believe it just because of testimony. And since I commented I've seen a lot more evidence. The pentagon has just about admitted it's real. It's a drip drop but it's coming out.

Is a flare even possible with thermal vision? I mean the light itself doesn't emit any heat so it shouldn't appear on thermal I think, only solid objects

[@75YBA]

All light emits heat, even if it’s a small amount. Even on a Winter’s day. 😂😂😂😂
