I've always been curious about UFOs but never saw one. I've been watching some videos and find the topic fascinating. There are some really out there theories, I will list several of them here. Not saying I believe this. I have the day off and no I am not day drinking.
1. The most common one is Roswell happened, and we have alien tech and a lot of the UFOs you see are our tech with some reverse engineering. This seems to be a common thread throughout a lot of whistleblowers, etc.
2. Aliens are interdimentional beings, and can come and go as they please.
3. Angels/demons, signaling the end of the world. (kind of eerie)
4. An advanced civilization that lives hidden either deep in the ocean or beneath the Earth's core. (this is getting into flat earth/crazy territory) There are even theories about a base within the moon.
5. Drones, advanced tech, weather, etc.
6. Advanced people from our future traveling back in time.
I don't know what's going on, but between floods, fires, drones, UFO sightings, plane crashes, 2025 has sure been crazy so far. UFO sightings are definitely increasing, although with today's tech it is easier to fake footage. Thoughts?

They exist . Between the Ocean and space no one knows what’s truly out there.

I stayed in Vegas about 20 miles from Nelius Air Force base saw the Thunderbirds fly hundreds of times . My grandfather was in the Air Force and told a story or two about Area 51.

What did he say? Did he see anything firsthand or did he hear stories. (if you want to share)

Only that every time he went there, his tools were checked, personal pat down and you rode on a bus . You were always carried to your designated area by arm guard and never left your work area except to get walked back to the bus. You didn’t talk to the other professions and it was always like a ghost town. Very few people were ever seen .

I did see something weird about 5 years ago at night. Me and several co-workers saw a triangle shape of red lights in a V formation. They hovered for about 15 minutes and then went into the clouds. Turns out it was the military (there is a nearby Naval base) and a drone drill. But it looked like a damn spaceship if I didn't know that.

Was this after a good night of hotdogs and Coors?

We had a building with a porch on the roof so we always saw weird things at night .
My grandfather said most the time you were driven straight into a hanger and always watched . Said it was the most boring work hours he could remember.

One documentary I saw claimed Armstrong and company saw a craft following them and NASA deleted several minutes of audio. Of course there is no proof. Also the dark continent of Antartica stuff, where it is always dark and there is an alien city under the ice. Mind you I don't believe this stuff.

My wife and son swear they saw a cylinder shaped object one time but lost it in the clouds before they could get s pic or vid. I give them a hard time because we watch Paranomal Caught on Tape and they know they are supposed to be ready with a cam at all times.

Along the same lines, what about ghosts. I've experienced more things along those lines than UFO's. I'm sure most of it has an explanation but it sure is weird. I had family that lived down a dirt road in an area where some civil war battles occurred. You could sit on their porch at night and you would see glowing orbs of different sizes, some about the size of a basketball around waist high float down that road. This was the early 80's. The road ended up getting paved and they pretty much stopped.

I believe in UFOs. Whether they’re government or actual aliens I don’t know. Saw one when I was little. It flew over our house. Stopped and then zoomed off. This was circa 85-86. I believe in angels and have seen one right after my mom passed away.

I believe there's something after we pass on. A creator and another life after this. So, I can get on board with angels or beings on another plane of existence. Maybe that's what aliens are? Interdimensional beings?

My favorite x files episodes are the non alien ones. Tonight I am watching Squeeze, about Mr Tooms. The strange creature who can squeeze through doors and vents and is stalking Scully.
You’re making me jealous. What do you stream it on? Gunna start it

The Monster of the Week episodes are the best. On a side note, Kolchak the Night Stalker paved the way for Chris Carter and the X-Files. It's too bad Carter couldn't get the rights to that character because I would've lost my **** as a kid if Carl Kolchak showed. Instead, we got a retired FBI agent played by McGavin.

Home is usually listed among the best episodes, along with Squeeze, and the Thing episode called Ice. Also the one with the giant parasite in the sewer. Still not sure what happened to Mulder's sister, as I stopped watching near the end. I think she was abducted, but when he found her it was a clone of her or something. My library has a ton of DVDs, like 5 rows and a lot of TV shows.

Watched another classic Fallen Angel

Also Fire
Mulder teams up with an old flame to catch a killer who can light people on fire with his mind.

Speaking of UFOs....I saw a second drone the other night. The first was hanging out over a Laundromat and the second one was two nights ago hovering over my crib. I guess all those Facebook comments finally caught up to me lol. The second one disappeared super fast which was wild.

I've been reading up on flat earth stuff. Last night we had a full moon and I was watching the moon and stars change positions over time and I thought "well that disproves that theory." Also how do they account for the seasons if the earth is not moving? They also say you can't see satellites but you can with a telescope. Most satellites are small.

I will say a lot of the conspiracy theories you hear today were on the X-Files. The show, along with the internet, helped certain conspiracy theories get traction. My favorite is that Stanley Kubrick filmed the fake moon landing for NASA and put clues of it in his movies; especially the Shining. The kid wears a Apollo 1 1 sweater. There's a documentary about possible hidden messages in the Shining. I believe none of it (maybe aliens) but there are some interesting rabbit holes to go down online.
