I love these films because the young actors and most other characters look so real. No perfect faces, no buff bodies, just regular people. And they are good at their craft already. And without perfect looks, they may have never been given a chance. But it is my hope that the big “movie makers” will finally notice the incredible talent in average looking people like in this movie and give them further work in the industry. They deserve the chance. What an exciting, heart-pounding movie based on math with no chases, explosions, gun fights, or special effects. Maybe we will next see a film based on the real story of the triangular lights over Phoenix. I hope the real student this account was based on was offered a high-level job where his extraordinary talents will help us answer the questions about our existence. Does anyone know what happened to him after this? Most exciting part- his professor getting her gestalt suddenly-the so realistic way he grabbed up his notes to run out of the class- and the credit due his roommate for believing him (unlike his mom) and lending him the car one more time. Sorry for the epic, long comments-but I was extraordinarily moved by this story, the real people who lived it, and the superb portrayal of ordinary students by real actors. And my sadness that Carl Sagan was not there to bear witness and receive actualization for his lifelong yearning.

I gotta say, I'm blown away with how a film made in 2018 and uploaded to KZbin in the last month of 2023 can manage to not only cap out at 480p, but very much appears to have been sourced from a file that may have been even smaller in resolution and crushed to death by compression. An incredible feat when seeing that the thumbnail looks better than the actual video. Just a bit more bit crushing and the intro text would have barely been legible. Truly, an experience that perfectly compliments the director's vision in a film where large vistas of the sparkling mystery of space gets reduced to blocky cobweb chunks of digital noise squirm against each other like breaks in a greasy film formed over top a thin soup that's sat a bit too long in the bowl 🥰

In October 2009, I was listening to Radio Canada through the internet when I was in Cyprus. The radio animator asked the people to stop calling the Montreal police for reporting a UFO sighting over the airport as this was overloading the 911 system. He even mentioned that the three triangular shaped objects that were hovering over the West Island disrupting airport operations did not seem aggressive and that there was no reason to worry. I never heard about this story again.

Sometime around February of 1978, in Tucson, Arizona, while I was walking home from work in the early twilight, I saw 4 brilliant lights hanging low, maybe 15 degrees above the horizon, in a perfectly straight line, completely motionless. Two of the lights were brilliant white, two were brilliant blue, alternately in the row. I watched them for maybe ten minutes before I had to board a bus which took me around a corner, putting the lights out of sight. Weird as this was, I was too tired to think much about it-- it just resisted thought, it was so baffling. The next morning at breakfast, I saw a tiny article in the back pages of the newspaper: hundreds of people had called in to the city police reporting these lights hanging low in the sky west of town. The article said that the police had called the commander of the Airforce base that is next to Tucson, asking if they knew anything about these lights. The Airforce said that they knew nothing about them, and that they were not anything that the Airforce had anything to do with. Readers should note that there was no drone technology at that time that could produce such a phenomenon. Nor could they be explained as tethered balloons, as they were absolutely motionless. Also, they would have had to have a pretty hefty power source, as they were so brilliant. They presented no form or characteristics beyond just being dazzling points of light. Like yours, this was a story that I have never heard about again.

Do you want to know about the alien spaceship? Then, I will you the truth and nothing but the truth. They are far more advanced than humans The alien spaceship is totally perfectly a disc type. Semi-dome, flat belly with big one light on the center with 7 or 8 round lights on the edge of the belly, aluminum or platinum composition, It hovered without sound with ease. Maybe 40 meters in diameter and zoomed into space in a blink of an eye. wow, speed of light. I can't forget what I experienced. I will never forget this beautiful 15-minute encounter until my last breath. This is true and nothing but the truth.

Wait till you see what I saw, one late evening and it was raining, two types of light engaging almost like a war was going on because how unlinier they were moving. The crazy part is it is not near like an airplane, but more near than the stars at the back. While my mom had witness a long light like fluorescent lamp, bright than the moon, but motionless. Dissappear once the sun rise. Both we saw at the horizon. And it is always in the area where the military training space, both in different times and places. Me at my 90s and my mom at her 60s to early 70s.

Nice to have Gillian Anderson to give it a little bit of a credibility kick. Only glitch in my moind was her comment about "non-homogenous" differential equations - I remember these as "non-homogeneous" but I could be remembering it wrong - DiffEQ class was only 30 some-odd years ago, LoL.

I've been living with an event that took place over 50 years ago now. My friend Gary and I were 12 years old, we had snuck out of our houses after our parents had gone to bed. We were just walking around the neighborhood when night suddenly turned to day for about 2 seconds. Something happens to the mind when it encounters an event it can't comprehend. I still remember it but although Gary had the same reaction at the time, when I asked him about it later he denied that it happened. No explanation that I have ever come up with matches what happened. It was not a beam of light, it was daylight without the sun.

For some expériences you need to be "ready" to "accept" them and so they can "move you" for the better instead of scaring you and add no benefits. His choice, but you decide to welcome it.

Math should be precise. But in the film if trigonometry was used to determine the size of the object, it seemed there was no clear connection between size of a dime, at arms length, 200 feet below cloud cover yield 2700 feet, but where in the sky. Straight up, at 45 degrees. Unless there was a reference to what angle from the observer to the object you did not have the hypotenuse, and without that distance could not do a correlation using the dime and arm length to estimate size. Am I missing something . By the way an excellent movie. Well above benchmark.

Love it. FYI, I personally have experienced many sightings of varying objects in various locations in the USA. The most intense concentration occurred in Wyoming in the early 80s. Several years ago I learned there is a deep underground alien military base approximately 40-50 miles southwest of Casper, which was the sightings hotbed for me. Then there was the night in 1997 in Northeast Washington State when what I did NOT see majorly freaked me out. I lived in the country with a panoramic view of the sky & horizon. Even though it was a clear cloudless night, no stars, planets, moon, etc, were visible over at least 95% of the sky-only a few at the very fringe. It was also much too quiet-as though whatever blocked the sky also blotted out all nighttime noises. We are definitely not alone.
