00:00:14.439 --> 00:00:17.039
<v Speaker 1>Hello, and welcome to the show at Martin Willershure, host,

2
00:00:17.480 --> 00:00:22.320
<v Speaker 1>and just got back this morning from Sedona, Arizona and

3
00:00:22.399 --> 00:00:25.440
<v Speaker 1>the Skyfire Summit with Travis Walton. Had a wonderful time

4
00:00:25.440 --> 00:00:28.559
<v Speaker 1>out there, what beautiful scenery it was. And I get

5
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:34.200
<v Speaker 1>two really good recorded interviews. You'll find them very enjoyable.

6
00:00:34.439 --> 00:00:37.159
<v Speaker 1>One is coming up this Thursday with Stacey Wright on

7
00:00:38.039 --> 00:00:44.479
<v Speaker 1>basically Phoenix and the Arizona area UF HOST. Nice conversation.

8
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:49.079
<v Speaker 1>That's Thursday at eight pm. And then next Tuesday, I

9
00:00:49.119 --> 00:00:51.560
<v Speaker 1>have a wonderful recording with.

10
00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:55.880
<v Speaker 2>Don Schmidt and he was.

11
00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:01.039
<v Speaker 1>Mentored by Jay Allen Heinek, and so we're going to

12
00:01:01.079 --> 00:01:03.280
<v Speaker 1>be talking all about that and it's a real, really

13
00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:06.359
<v Speaker 1>good conversation, best one I ever had with Don Schmidt.

14
00:01:06.359 --> 00:01:11.480
<v Speaker 1>And that is next Tuesday. It'll be here. It's not live.

15
00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:15.799
<v Speaker 1>Thursday will not be live. However, I will be introducing

16
00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:18.519
<v Speaker 1>the show and I will be in the chat and

17
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:21.280
<v Speaker 1>also saying goodbye everyone when I leave.

18
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:23.239
<v Speaker 2>So just remember.

19
00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:27.439
<v Speaker 1>So coming up we have Stacey Wright on Thursday eight pm,

20
00:01:27.799 --> 00:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>and next Tuesday week from tonight, Don Schmidt at nine pm.

21
00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:35.359
<v Speaker 1>So our guest tonight, I met Mitch Randall out in

22
00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:39.040
<v Speaker 1>contact in the desert, and I did a show with

23
00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:43.000
<v Speaker 1>him just on AI, only artificial intelligence. He doesn't like

24
00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:45.000
<v Speaker 1>to call it artificial. I think he had another word

25
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:46.760
<v Speaker 1>for it. I might ask him about that.

26
00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:47.319
<v Speaker 2>Because.

27
00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:50.640
<v Speaker 1>I think we're going to be hearing a lot more

28
00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:53.079
<v Speaker 1>about that. And one of the thoughts that I had

29
00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:57.120
<v Speaker 1>when I was out in Sedona, I watched a film

30
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:01.560
<v Speaker 1>by Ron James and now it's that is not going

31
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:04.400
<v Speaker 1>to be out for a while. We saw it sort

32
00:02:04.439 --> 00:02:07.159
<v Speaker 1>of pre completely. You know, it was a rough cut.

33
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:09.199
<v Speaker 1>I guess you would call it of the movie. Very

34
00:02:09.240 --> 00:02:11.360
<v Speaker 1>good movie. I'm going to be talking to him when

35
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:17.960
<v Speaker 1>that is out. But he introduced AI into this movie

36
00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:24.759
<v Speaker 1>Accidental Truths and number two that is, and I thought

37
00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:27.080
<v Speaker 1>he made a lot of sense, and the thought occurred

38
00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:30.159
<v Speaker 1>to me, you know, we're progressing so quickly right now.

39
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:37.719
<v Speaker 1>Can you imagine if a society had an intelligent society

40
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:40.919
<v Speaker 1>had AI for say a thousand years. I mean you

41
00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:46.599
<v Speaker 1>can only imagine what that could mean. And when artificial

42
00:02:46.599 --> 00:02:50.400
<v Speaker 1>intelligence is building itself and how you know it'll just

43
00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:54.479
<v Speaker 1>pyramid up to something who knows, and whatever it is,

44
00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:58.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure we'll be traveling the stars, I think. Anyway,

45
00:02:59.120 --> 00:03:03.919
<v Speaker 1>Mitch Randall was on the show months ago about AI

46
00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:06.639
<v Speaker 1>and he has a wonderful background. We're going to be

47
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:09.759
<v Speaker 1>talking about that. Just so everyone knows. The blog this week,

48
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:13.280
<v Speaker 1>but Charles lear Is Encounters on the Roads of Spain

49
00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:17.080
<v Speaker 1>and it talks about a nineteen nineties encounter and a

50
00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:21.719
<v Speaker 1>lot more. So check out the blog at podcastufo dot com.

51
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:24.319
<v Speaker 1>And thank you all for being here, Thanks for those

52
00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:27.639
<v Speaker 1>who have supported the show. And it was really nice

53
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:31.680
<v Speaker 1>to be in Sidona. And three people actually came there,

54
00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:35.479
<v Speaker 1>one from Buffalo, New York, just to meet and hang out.

55
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:41.000
<v Speaker 1>So there was Matt, there was Ron and Joel. I

56
00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:43.520
<v Speaker 1>believe I have all their names. It was great to

57
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:47.039
<v Speaker 1>meet you all and hang out with you so and

58
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:49.719
<v Speaker 1>I do believe a lot of people at the conference

59
00:03:49.759 --> 00:03:52.039
<v Speaker 1>said they'll be listening, So a shout out to you

60
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:53.599
<v Speaker 1>as well if you are new.

61
00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:58.199
<v Speaker 2>To the show. Mitch, welcome, Hey, thanks for having me on.

62
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:02.199
<v Speaker 1>Yes, you know, I thought we really had a I

63
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:05.800
<v Speaker 1>thought we had a wonderful conversation about AI out there.

64
00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:07.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know, it's sort of.

65
00:04:08.840 --> 00:04:12.360
<v Speaker 1>It can be sort of depressing because it's kind of scary.

66
00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:17.199
<v Speaker 1>It's an unknown and this is a like a never

67
00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:22.439
<v Speaker 1>ending technology. And and you know, I like the term

68
00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:25.519
<v Speaker 1>this could be our last invention, and that sounds like

69
00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:28.600
<v Speaker 1>a loaded sentence, but in a way, it could be

70
00:04:28.600 --> 00:04:31.680
<v Speaker 1>because AI could be doing all the inventing from now on.

71
00:04:32.120 --> 00:04:36.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's kind of crazy, but you know, this

72
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.560
<v Speaker 1>show is not really about AI, but I'm sure we'll

73
00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:39.399
<v Speaker 1>be talking about it.

74
00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:41.480
<v Speaker 2>But we're going to be talking.

75
00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:45.120
<v Speaker 1>About SkyWatch, and this is something you and I never discussed.

76
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Of course, you're at a UFO conference and you're going

77
00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:50.439
<v Speaker 1>to be talking about that. But let's let's wind all

78
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:54.680
<v Speaker 1>the way back and before even this idea. What was

79
00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:57.079
<v Speaker 1>your interest in UFOs to begin with?

80
00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:02.560
<v Speaker 3>Oh, I'm probably influenced by my big brother who was

81
00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:07.199
<v Speaker 3>always into the UFOs, so I kind of followed his tracks,

82
00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:09.759
<v Speaker 3>Like I didn't you know there was a time back

83
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:13.199
<v Speaker 3>in the seventies when it was you know, really you

84
00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:15.759
<v Speaker 3>had to be a flake believe in them, right, And

85
00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:19.959
<v Speaker 3>then I remember there's an Omni magazine article about UFOs,

86
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:22.360
<v Speaker 3>like what's that doing there? You know, that was about

87
00:05:22.399 --> 00:05:24.160
<v Speaker 3>the time I got into it. So it was way

88
00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:27.480
<v Speaker 3>back in the seventies. And and I'll tell you that

89
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:32.120
<v Speaker 3>it's actually hasn't really changed much at all, because it's

90
00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:35.879
<v Speaker 3>still this you know, like excitement and then nothing and

91
00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:38.639
<v Speaker 3>then excitement. And it's been doing that for decades.

92
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:40.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know.

93
00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:42.879
<v Speaker 3>And then I got pulled into it again with Grush.

94
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:46.600
<v Speaker 3>Given that testimony, I thought, this is it. It's coming out.

95
00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:53.240
<v Speaker 3>The toothpaste is squirted out all over. Then I figured

96
00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:55.079
<v Speaker 3>I figured out about that toothpaste. I don't want to

97
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:57.720
<v Speaker 3>get off track with so many things, but you know

98
00:05:57.720 --> 00:05:59.920
<v Speaker 3>they always say that, you know, the toothpaste.

99
00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:01.560
<v Speaker 2>Came out of the too, can't go back in.

100
00:06:02.439 --> 00:06:09.240
<v Speaker 3>Let the toothpaste dry up. That's all. There's toothpaste all over. Yeah.

101
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:09.560
<v Speaker 2>You know.

102
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:14.000
<v Speaker 1>This conference that I was at last weekend, there was

103
00:06:14.040 --> 00:06:16.759
<v Speaker 1>a lot of talk about, you know, the different ideas

104
00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:21.639
<v Speaker 1>that people have on disclosure, and that's really what it is.

105
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:25.240
<v Speaker 1>We all have different thoughts on what disclosure is. And

106
00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:29.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, and someone, you know, one person said, oh,

107
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:32.639
<v Speaker 1>it's here in the UFO community.

108
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:33.639
<v Speaker 2>Doesn't know when to say yes.

109
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:38.800
<v Speaker 1>And I kind of resented that remark because it's not

110
00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:42.759
<v Speaker 1>us that need to be convinced in the community. I

111
00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:47.560
<v Speaker 1>don't think it's like admittance of the governments and all that.

112
00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Maybe and I don't even know how much that will

113
00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:50.959
<v Speaker 1>push that forward.

114
00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:52.720
<v Speaker 2>You know, I mean there's.

115
00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:54.519
<v Speaker 3>Well, I mean I have a lot to say about

116
00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:58.839
<v Speaker 3>that because that's actually part of my instrument designed because

117
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:03.639
<v Speaker 3>I feel that I feel that, you know, society is

118
00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:07.319
<v Speaker 3>not going to you know, there's so many aspects. I'm

119
00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:09.360
<v Speaker 3>trying to put it all into a coherent sentence, but

120
00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:12.360
<v Speaker 3>I mean, society is not going to jump on board.

121
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:15.279
<v Speaker 3>They're really waiting for the President to stand up and

122
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:20.240
<v Speaker 3>say UFOs are real. That's what they want, because people

123
00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:23.560
<v Speaker 3>don't want to take a bunch of disparate information and

124
00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:25.920
<v Speaker 3>like sort through it all and come up with a conclusion.

125
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:29.759
<v Speaker 3>So this idea that you know, if there's going to

126
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:32.439
<v Speaker 3>be disclosure somehow, it has to come through some kind

127
00:07:32.439 --> 00:07:35.639
<v Speaker 3>of official channel. That's a real thing. And I think

128
00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:37.839
<v Speaker 3>you have to take that into account if you're going

129
00:07:37.879 --> 00:07:40.839
<v Speaker 3>to if you're going to push disclosure, it can't be

130
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:44.439
<v Speaker 3>you know, some scientific group off in the corner says

131
00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:47.519
<v Speaker 3>UFOs are real. That's not enough because of it, you know,

132
00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:49.839
<v Speaker 3>for example, if it doesn't end up in the New

133
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:54.160
<v Speaker 3>York Times in a definitive way, like if it if

134
00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:56.680
<v Speaker 3>it's in thew York New York Times and it says, well,

135
00:07:56.720 --> 00:07:59.240
<v Speaker 3>this group says yes, but this group says no, that's

136
00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:04.319
<v Speaker 3>not disclosure. It's got to be absolutely you know, spoon

137
00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:07.879
<v Speaker 3>fed to everybody. Then that's disclosures. So that's you know,

138
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:09.639
<v Speaker 3>I'll talk about that more than we get into it.

139
00:08:09.680 --> 00:08:12.800
<v Speaker 3>But that's, in my opinion, part of the instrument design

140
00:08:12.839 --> 00:08:16.120
<v Speaker 3>that has to be made in order for citizen science

141
00:08:16.120 --> 00:08:17.319
<v Speaker 3>to have an effect on this.

142
00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:22.240
<v Speaker 1>I guess that's what that we get, the citizen science,

143
00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:26.000
<v Speaker 1>as you say, involved. But I've said this a number

144
00:08:26.000 --> 00:08:29.560
<v Speaker 1>of times and it's just my opinion that I don't

145
00:08:29.639 --> 00:08:32.480
<v Speaker 1>think it really matters who's in office at the time.

146
00:08:32.840 --> 00:08:38.360
<v Speaker 1>If that person in office, Democratic, Republican, whoever, says, you know,

147
00:08:38.480 --> 00:08:42.399
<v Speaker 1>we have extraterrestrial life is visiting us or whatever it is,

148
00:08:42.519 --> 00:08:45.679
<v Speaker 1>or it's it's found, we found it for sure, it's

149
00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.039
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent, there's going to still be a lot

150
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:51.120
<v Speaker 1>of people that are not going to believe that person

151
00:08:51.159 --> 00:08:52.000
<v Speaker 1>in office.

152
00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:53.960
<v Speaker 2>But if science, I mean.

153
00:08:53.879 --> 00:08:56.200
<v Speaker 1>It would have to be like a whole group, a

154
00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:01.720
<v Speaker 1>whole mass adjoining in on it before unless what do

155
00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:06.480
<v Speaker 1>they say, catastrophic disclosure, like you know, like they all

156
00:09:06.519 --> 00:09:09.440
<v Speaker 1>come in like Independence Day all over the world, you know,

157
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:10.159
<v Speaker 1>that type of thing.

158
00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:13.440
<v Speaker 2>But so I don't know it. You know, I'm not

159
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:14.360
<v Speaker 2>holding my breath.

160
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:17.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean I really do think I know what

161
00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:19.240
<v Speaker 3>you're saying. There's a lot of people don't believe what

162
00:09:19.279 --> 00:09:21.759
<v Speaker 3>the president says. No matter which party, there's always, yeah,

163
00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:24.159
<v Speaker 3>the people who don't believe it. But I think you're

164
00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:26.240
<v Speaker 3>in a different zone. I think the zone that we

165
00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:29.399
<v Speaker 3>want is when the president says it, because that means

166
00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:33.480
<v Speaker 3>it's been through a bunch of filters and it's bubbled

167
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:35.919
<v Speaker 3>up to the point where it's gotten to that level.

168
00:09:36.399 --> 00:09:39.879
<v Speaker 3>And I think people really do listen to the president.

169
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:42.000
<v Speaker 3>I mean, there's a lot of us that follow closely

170
00:09:42.080 --> 00:09:44.240
<v Speaker 3>that know whether we should be listening to the president

171
00:09:44.360 --> 00:09:46.559
<v Speaker 3>or not. But there's a whole bunch of people that

172
00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:47.559
<v Speaker 3>listen to the president.

173
00:09:48.000 --> 00:09:50.519
<v Speaker 2>Mmmmmm yeah. Yeah.

174
00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:53.879
<v Speaker 1>So so you your brother sort of got you and

175
00:09:53.919 --> 00:09:55.360
<v Speaker 1>you mentioned the Omni magazine.

176
00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:57.080
<v Speaker 2>I actually remember that.

177
00:09:57.759 --> 00:10:01.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, friend's family used to get that, and I remember

178
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:03.320
<v Speaker 1>being a kid and seeing that magazine.

179
00:10:03.840 --> 00:10:05.360
<v Speaker 2>And you know, I mentioned that.

180
00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:07.080
<v Speaker 1>To my friend who I'm still in touch with, a

181
00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:11.519
<v Speaker 1>childhood friend. He didn't remember it, but because I told him,

182
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:13.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, I broke the news to him. Look, I

183
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:15.679
<v Speaker 1>do a show in UFOs, and he's actually watched a

184
00:10:15.679 --> 00:10:16.080
<v Speaker 1>couple of them.

185
00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:18.120
<v Speaker 2>He's not picking on me too bad. He likes to

186
00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:18.519
<v Speaker 2>pick on me.

187
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but yeah, I remember that, and so you yourself.

188
00:10:25.320 --> 00:10:28.519
<v Speaker 1>I have never had a witness the UFO though, correct,

189
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:29.120
<v Speaker 1>because I.

190
00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:31.600
<v Speaker 3>Know that that's the crazy thing. Like I went to

191
00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:34.960
<v Speaker 3>Contact in the desert, and that has so many people

192
00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:37.799
<v Speaker 3>that I mean, I think I'm maybe the only one

193
00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:39.639
<v Speaker 3>that goes there who hasn't seen something.

194
00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:42.159
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, that's not true at all. It's not true

195
00:10:42.159 --> 00:10:42.440
<v Speaker 2>at all.

196
00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:45.240
<v Speaker 1>And you know, you look at Steve and Steve is

197
00:10:45.240 --> 00:10:48.360
<v Speaker 1>it you know, what's his name, Bassett?

198
00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:49.240
<v Speaker 2>Who am I thinking of?

199
00:10:49.720 --> 00:10:50.000
<v Speaker 3>Steve?

200
00:10:51.200 --> 00:10:52.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's never seen a UFO.

201
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:56.720
<v Speaker 1>Stanton Friedman, one of the greatest researchers ever, never saw

202
00:10:56.759 --> 00:10:59.279
<v Speaker 1>a UFO. So there's there's a number of them, and

203
00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:03.080
<v Speaker 1>they're you know, they're not exactly a unicorn. There's probably

204
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:07.279
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people that think they saw something and

205
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:10.919
<v Speaker 1>still go there because they got their curiosity up and.

206
00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:14.320
<v Speaker 3>It may you know. So for me, like I went

207
00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:16.799
<v Speaker 3>through that roller coaster for decades, you know, and sometimes

208
00:11:16.840 --> 00:11:20.200
<v Speaker 3>you're really excited about it because it's it's coming out,

209
00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:22.559
<v Speaker 3>you know, and then it goes dead, and then you're like,

210
00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:25.840
<v Speaker 3>why would I even care about this subject? You know,

211
00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:28.480
<v Speaker 3>like what's going on with it? You know? I mean

212
00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:31.679
<v Speaker 3>you just go through these really deep and high peaks,

213
00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:35.320
<v Speaker 3>you know. And for me, I was always looking for

214
00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:39.679
<v Speaker 3>because I'm background in science, I'm technical, and I can

215
00:11:39.720 --> 00:11:41.799
<v Speaker 3>look at a video and I can tell whether not

216
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:43.519
<v Speaker 3>that it's true or not, but I can tell whether

217
00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:46.879
<v Speaker 3>it means anything or not. Because so many videos of

218
00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:49.039
<v Speaker 3>just a dot and you can't tell if it's the

219
00:11:49.039 --> 00:11:52.360
<v Speaker 3>camera moving or the dot moving. It's meaningless, you know.

220
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:54.919
<v Speaker 3>There's a lot of stuff like that, or just a dot,

221
00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:58.159
<v Speaker 3>you know, could be any kind of light. And I've

222
00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:01.159
<v Speaker 3>always been looking for something that's you know, that would

223
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:04.519
<v Speaker 3>I would think, Okay, nothing this human made can do that,

224
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:08.000
<v Speaker 3>And there's really very little like that. There's actually a

225
00:12:08.080 --> 00:12:10.919
<v Speaker 3>couple videos like that, well for one of them. One

226
00:12:10.919 --> 00:12:12.559
<v Speaker 3>of them was the I don't know if you remember

227
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:17.080
<v Speaker 3>the Mexican UFO video. It's a UFO that was like

228
00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:20.360
<v Speaker 3>wobbling and it could clearly and then it went behind

229
00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:21.440
<v Speaker 3>a building that came.

230
00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:24.039
<v Speaker 1>Out over the top. Yeah, and I don't know if

231
00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:26.519
<v Speaker 1>that's real. I'm not sure if that's real. I've heard

232
00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:27.919
<v Speaker 1>controversy about that.

233
00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:30.759
<v Speaker 3>Right, Well, for me, that was like super interesting. I

234
00:12:30.799 --> 00:12:36.960
<v Speaker 3>actually communicated a little bit with that famous famous video

235
00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:39.960
<v Speaker 3>video guy. I can't remember his name right now, you.

236
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:45.080
<v Speaker 1>Know I talk about in Mexico, are you no, no, no, the.

237
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:48.200
<v Speaker 3>The guy that Bruce Beccaby that's it. Yeah, yeah him

238
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:50.120
<v Speaker 3>a little bit to kind of go through that, but

239
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:55.720
<v Speaker 3>you know that anyway, I think eventually I figured out

240
00:12:55.759 --> 00:13:01.320
<v Speaker 3>that's not real. Actually this was more recently actually froze.

241
00:13:02.080 --> 00:13:04.600
<v Speaker 3>You know, if I learned this technique where if you

242
00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:08.639
<v Speaker 3>can isolate the or you know, stabilize the thing you're

243
00:13:08.679 --> 00:13:11.039
<v Speaker 3>looking at, you can tell a lot because you can

244
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:14.720
<v Speaker 3>see what's going on with the background. So a lot

245
00:13:14.799 --> 00:13:18.679
<v Speaker 3>of times when people do you know, they impose, super

246
00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:23.120
<v Speaker 3>impose a fake UFO onto a video. It's not perfect.

247
00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:25.399
<v Speaker 3>They'll get something mixed up. And the main thing is

248
00:13:25.519 --> 00:13:29.840
<v Speaker 3>you have to get the stabilization right because and what

249
00:13:29.960 --> 00:13:32.240
<v Speaker 3>I noticed and when I did that is I noticed

250
00:13:32.279 --> 00:13:34.240
<v Speaker 3>that the UFO I had it stabilized, but then you'd

251
00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:38.120
<v Speaker 3>see the background do things that it shouldn't do. So

252
00:13:38.639 --> 00:13:40.840
<v Speaker 3>I didn't explain that very good, but I convinced my no,

253
00:13:40.919 --> 00:13:41.559
<v Speaker 3>I get.

254
00:13:42.200 --> 00:13:44.679
<v Speaker 1>I get exactly what you're saying. I know when I

255
00:13:44.720 --> 00:13:49.200
<v Speaker 1>first started looking into this topic, there was UFOs over Tahiti,

256
00:13:49.639 --> 00:13:54.480
<v Speaker 1>I believe, and as just crazy went right over a

257
00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:59.200
<v Speaker 1>palm trees and that video was so amazing and it

258
00:13:59.320 --> 00:14:02.440
<v Speaker 1>was like at the time they had like a billion views.

259
00:14:03.080 --> 00:14:04.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and that's CGI, you know.

260
00:14:04.799 --> 00:14:07.399
<v Speaker 1>They these people analyzed it enough to figure out that

261
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:09.440
<v Speaker 1>it was CGI, and that was early CGI.

262
00:14:10.080 --> 00:14:15.320
<v Speaker 3>So the trees were all identical, Yes, I remember that.

263
00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:16.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. Yeah.

264
00:14:16.519 --> 00:14:19.799
<v Speaker 1>So anyway, now we're in trouble because you can you

265
00:14:19.919 --> 00:14:23.279
<v Speaker 1>can create anything, you know, and anything can be created.

266
00:14:24.039 --> 00:14:25.039
<v Speaker 2>So the video.

267
00:14:24.759 --> 00:14:27.879
<v Speaker 3>Evidence right obviously took a big hit right now because

268
00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:30.200
<v Speaker 3>you can create anything. So you have to be so

269
00:14:30.399 --> 00:14:33.519
<v Speaker 3>careful now with any video evidence. But there was another

270
00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:36.759
<v Speaker 3>I was going to say, there was a guy in

271
00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:40.480
<v Speaker 3>Florida that was around the golf breeze time. And the

272
00:14:40.519 --> 00:14:44.799
<v Speaker 3>guy in Florida has what I consider I mean, I

273
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:47.200
<v Speaker 3>didn't I never heard anybody debunk it, and I can't

274
00:14:47.240 --> 00:14:50.639
<v Speaker 3>debunk it. But he's he's got his video camera trained

275
00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:53.399
<v Speaker 3>on a on a UFO and then it shoots off

276
00:14:54.480 --> 00:14:57.600
<v Speaker 3>and so that's really cool video. And I think, wow,

277
00:14:57.639 --> 00:15:01.000
<v Speaker 3>that's so that's one of my favorites. But what I

278
00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:03.399
<v Speaker 3>was going to say is, you know, for decades I've

279
00:15:03.399 --> 00:15:06.399
<v Speaker 3>been looking for that that smoking gun. Evidence that that

280
00:15:06.840 --> 00:15:09.279
<v Speaker 3>you know, with my own eyes looks to me like

281
00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:12.879
<v Speaker 3>it can't be fake and it can't be a human

282
00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:17.559
<v Speaker 3>you know. So and then at some point, you know,

283
00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:20.879
<v Speaker 3>after the twenty seventeen or twenty nineteen whenever Fraverer came

284
00:15:20.919 --> 00:15:26.480
<v Speaker 3>out with this sighting of the ticktac thing, yes, you know,

285
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:29.399
<v Speaker 3>at some point I thought, you know, I've been watching

286
00:15:29.440 --> 00:15:32.679
<v Speaker 3>this for forty years, how many years? It is right,

287
00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:35.919
<v Speaker 3>and there's so many credible people, and how could anybody

288
00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:39.279
<v Speaker 3>be more credible than David Fraverer. And he saw it

289
00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:41.320
<v Speaker 3>with his own eyes, and he saw it doing as

290
00:15:41.480 --> 00:15:45.519
<v Speaker 3>you know, non human technology kind of motions, right, And

291
00:15:45.559 --> 00:15:48.320
<v Speaker 3>so I just thought, why am I waiting for the

292
00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:50.559
<v Speaker 3>smoking gun? I'm you know, I don't care, I don't

293
00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:54.320
<v Speaker 3>care if I'm wrong. It looks to me. My best

294
00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:57.000
<v Speaker 3>guess is that this is real. That's what I would say.

295
00:15:57.039 --> 00:16:01.320
<v Speaker 3>So I finally decided like, okay, I'm on that. And so,

296
00:16:01.720 --> 00:16:03.919
<v Speaker 3>after decades of sitting on that fence, I kind of

297
00:16:03.960 --> 00:16:07.679
<v Speaker 3>jumped over and as soon as I jumped over, something

298
00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:11.360
<v Speaker 3>really crazy happened. I didn't expect. But when you're sitting

299
00:16:11.360 --> 00:16:14.440
<v Speaker 3>on the fence, you're trying to your real focus is

300
00:16:14.440 --> 00:16:16.919
<v Speaker 3>is this real or is this not real? When you

301
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:19.360
<v Speaker 3>jump over the fence and you think this is real,

302
00:16:20.519 --> 00:16:24.519
<v Speaker 3>that's when you realize every theory that is so wild,

303
00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:29.759
<v Speaker 3>every ridiculous theory, could now be true. And that sort

304
00:16:29.799 --> 00:16:33.639
<v Speaker 3>of shocked me because you can't really contemplate that, or

305
00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:36.159
<v Speaker 3>believe that, or really buy into that if you're sitting

306
00:16:36.200 --> 00:16:38.440
<v Speaker 3>on the fence. You have to jump over the fence

307
00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:40.840
<v Speaker 3>and land on the other side before you can really

308
00:16:40.879 --> 00:16:41.360
<v Speaker 3>feel that.

309
00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:44.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, I felt kind of the same when

310
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:45.399
<v Speaker 2>I first got into this.

311
00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Now, I did have a UFO sighting, and I'm only

312
00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:51.639
<v Speaker 1>saying that because that kind of already started me in

313
00:16:51.679 --> 00:16:54.159
<v Speaker 1>the door with you know, this is real type of thing,

314
00:16:54.200 --> 00:16:57.480
<v Speaker 1>because what I saw I can't figure even today. It

315
00:16:57.480 --> 00:17:00.440
<v Speaker 1>doesn't seem like anything that would be our technology any.

316
00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:00.840
<v Speaker 2>Type of way.

317
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:06.640
<v Speaker 1>But I felt that same way about the abductees and

318
00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:10.319
<v Speaker 1>you know experiences as they're called today. You know, like

319
00:17:10.359 --> 00:17:12.319
<v Speaker 1>I was having a really really hard time with that,

320
00:17:12.720 --> 00:17:14.640
<v Speaker 1>and then I started, you know, thinking more about it.

321
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:18.640
<v Speaker 1>And I totally believe Travis Walton's story for one.

322
00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:22.839
<v Speaker 2>And you know, and I wanted to make a point.

323
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:27.200
<v Speaker 1>This this weekend when I was talking about Travis Walton,

324
00:17:27.440 --> 00:17:32.119
<v Speaker 1>and that is that if let's just say that you

325
00:17:32.279 --> 00:17:34.519
<v Speaker 1>or I are just I'm just going to put myself there.

326
00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:38.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to fake a story that you know, I

327
00:17:38.240 --> 00:17:41.440
<v Speaker 1>was gone for five days and you know, and and

328
00:17:42.519 --> 00:17:46.519
<v Speaker 1>all this happened his You would make it much more

329
00:17:46.519 --> 00:17:49.640
<v Speaker 1>simple than his. You know, his is very very complicated,

330
00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:53.640
<v Speaker 1>and he's I listened to a on Aizon Cinema, which

331
00:17:53.680 --> 00:17:57.200
<v Speaker 1>is a great YouTube channel. I listened to his original

332
00:17:57.400 --> 00:18:02.880
<v Speaker 1>very first interview, and it's exact. His story has remained

333
00:18:03.039 --> 00:18:08.079
<v Speaker 1>exactly the same. There's not one iota of difference today

334
00:18:08.599 --> 00:18:11.039
<v Speaker 1>than it was back then of what happened to him,

335
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:13.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, And and you know, I've tried to like

336
00:18:13.559 --> 00:18:17.799
<v Speaker 1>ask him really interesting questions. Do you remember using the bathroom?

337
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:21.200
<v Speaker 1>You know, you know, because he was gone five days?

338
00:18:21.759 --> 00:18:24.799
<v Speaker 1>What did you eat? Were there any smells? And but

339
00:18:24.880 --> 00:18:27.319
<v Speaker 1>he always says it was really really hard to breathe,

340
00:18:27.319 --> 00:18:30.640
<v Speaker 1>which makes sense, you know, which does make sense. And

341
00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:33.720
<v Speaker 1>then you know, he you know, and then the beings

342
00:18:33.720 --> 00:18:36.880
<v Speaker 1>that came that look like us, you know, I mean,

343
00:18:37.079 --> 00:18:39.279
<v Speaker 1>you just can't. I mean, it doesn't make any sense.

344
00:18:39.359 --> 00:18:41.759
<v Speaker 1>Things don't make any sense and are complicated. Like he

345
00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:44.200
<v Speaker 1>walks out in this big hangar and you know, he

346
00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:47.400
<v Speaker 1>sees another room. He goes into it and there's other beings.

347
00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:50.880
<v Speaker 1>They don't have a fish bowl helmet on, and they look,

348
00:18:51.319 --> 00:18:53.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, very like very attractive humans.

349
00:18:53.480 --> 00:18:55.599
<v Speaker 2>That's what they look like to him. And they don't talk.

350
00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:58.400
<v Speaker 1>He's talking to them, they're not communicating with him, you know,

351
00:18:58.519 --> 00:18:59.440
<v Speaker 1>put a mask on him.

352
00:18:59.440 --> 00:18:59.759
<v Speaker 2>He's out.

353
00:18:59.799 --> 00:19:02.079
<v Speaker 1>And that's the last three members on the ship. You

354
00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:05.359
<v Speaker 1>know that that type of thing. All I'm getting at is,

355
00:19:05.440 --> 00:19:10.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, when you take that leap or whatever. I'm

356
00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:13.200
<v Speaker 1>not necessarily saying that everyone that says they're an experiencer

357
00:19:13.759 --> 00:19:19.359
<v Speaker 1>really did experience. I mean, they experienced something obviously, but

358
00:19:19.359 --> 00:19:22.440
<v Speaker 1>but there are cases like his that stand out to me.

359
00:19:22.880 --> 00:19:27.640
<v Speaker 1>In the Allegash incident and Pasca Goula incident, you know,

360
00:19:27.680 --> 00:19:30.400
<v Speaker 1>those those are the ones that really really stand out.

361
00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:32.680
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to say hi to everyone and chat, thank

362
00:19:32.680 --> 00:19:35.759
<v Speaker 1>you all for being here and good to see you all.

363
00:19:35.960 --> 00:19:38.279
<v Speaker 1>And you know, if you have questions as we go along,

364
00:19:38.359 --> 00:19:40.880
<v Speaker 1>just please, uh, you know, put them in all caps.

365
00:19:41.240 --> 00:19:45.720
<v Speaker 1>So so you're you have this interest and you're you

366
00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:49.599
<v Speaker 1>have such a you worked for you did some work

367
00:19:49.640 --> 00:19:54.319
<v Speaker 1>with NASA and uh and then Noah, all these different

368
00:19:54.440 --> 00:19:59.039
<v Speaker 1>organizations through radar or things that you built or what

369
00:19:59.640 --> 00:20:01.119
<v Speaker 1>can you I said a little.

370
00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:04.200
<v Speaker 3>I started working at the National Center for Atmospheric Research,

371
00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:08.559
<v Speaker 3>which is here in Boulder, Colorado, and it's, uh, you know,

372
00:20:08.559 --> 00:20:12.599
<v Speaker 3>we make weather research radars for weather research. So there

373
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:18.640
<v Speaker 3>they're high quality, scientific grade research weather radars and some

374
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:21.599
<v Speaker 3>of them, you know, forty five foot dish, some of

375
00:20:21.640 --> 00:20:25.359
<v Speaker 3>them are you know, a six foot dish. And also

376
00:20:25.400 --> 00:20:27.960
<v Speaker 3>did light ours, which is laser radar, same thing looking

377
00:20:28.000 --> 00:20:32.160
<v Speaker 3>for water vapor in that case. But you know, some

378
00:20:32.200 --> 00:20:35.079
<v Speaker 3>of the technologies I worked on went into NASA things.

379
00:20:35.119 --> 00:20:37.720
<v Speaker 3>I worked with NO groups to do some of their

380
00:20:37.920 --> 00:20:40.160
<v Speaker 3>research on the P threes that go to the hurricanes.

381
00:20:41.400 --> 00:20:43.920
<v Speaker 3>And I worked at NIST as well. So I've been

382
00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:46.279
<v Speaker 3>there's a lot of government labs around here, and I've

383
00:20:46.359 --> 00:20:47.720
<v Speaker 3>kind of been around some.

384
00:20:48.640 --> 00:20:51.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and so how did you all of a sudden

385
00:20:51.599 --> 00:20:55.200
<v Speaker 1>get this idea? How did it come to that if

386
00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:58.480
<v Speaker 1>we set up basically a network, a nationwide network of

387
00:20:58.559 --> 00:21:01.640
<v Speaker 1>passive radar, and at least explain to us what passive

388
00:21:01.759 --> 00:21:07.480
<v Speaker 1>radar compared to direct radar. What's the other radar active

389
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:08.599
<v Speaker 1>active radar?

390
00:21:08.680 --> 00:21:13.039
<v Speaker 2>That's it. Yeah, So what are the different Well, you know.

391
00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:15.599
<v Speaker 3>Active radar, which is what we mostly do at the

392
00:21:15.680 --> 00:21:18.759
<v Speaker 3>National Center for Atmosphere Search, but we do have passive

393
00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:21.079
<v Speaker 3>radars there too. But an active radar is what you

394
00:21:21.160 --> 00:21:23.680
<v Speaker 3>normally think of a radar. It's a dish with a

395
00:21:23.799 --> 00:21:27.720
<v Speaker 3>very narrow beam. It shoots, it transmits a pulse high

396
00:21:27.799 --> 00:21:30.960
<v Speaker 3>energy polls, goes out, it hits an airplane or something,

397
00:21:31.119 --> 00:21:33.680
<v Speaker 3>and comes back a little bit later, and you receive

398
00:21:33.799 --> 00:21:37.119
<v Speaker 3>that echo. That's what you call active radar. So passive

399
00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:40.519
<v Speaker 3>radar is more or less the same thing, except for

400
00:21:41.240 --> 00:21:44.559
<v Speaker 3>you're not transmitting. You're using somebody else's transmitter who will

401
00:21:44.599 --> 00:21:48.039
<v Speaker 3>either transmit it on purpose for your purpose, or maybe

402
00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:50.680
<v Speaker 3>they didn't. Maybe it's an FM radio station, maybe it's

403
00:21:50.680 --> 00:21:55.319
<v Speaker 3>a digital TV radio station. And you can still use

404
00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:58.880
<v Speaker 3>somebody's transmitting energy out there, and that energy is bouncing

405
00:21:58.920 --> 00:22:01.400
<v Speaker 3>off objects that are in the sky, and so you

406
00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:04.599
<v Speaker 3>can use a passive receiver. It's a receiver only, and

407
00:22:04.640 --> 00:22:11.279
<v Speaker 3>you can actually detect that echo. So yeah, there's they've

408
00:22:11.279 --> 00:22:13.920
<v Speaker 3>been using this since the thirties. In the thirties they

409
00:22:13.960 --> 00:22:20.519
<v Speaker 3>had to detect the England was using these receivers they had.

410
00:22:20.599 --> 00:22:23.119
<v Speaker 3>They had a receiver that was pointing out over the

411
00:22:23.200 --> 00:22:27.480
<v Speaker 3>channel where the German airplanes might be coming in where

412
00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:30.039
<v Speaker 3>it was the antenns were pointed in such a way

413
00:22:30.079 --> 00:22:33.440
<v Speaker 3>they couldn't pick up BBC, but if an airplane got

414
00:22:33.440 --> 00:22:36.279
<v Speaker 3>in there, it would reflect the BBC signal. They could

415
00:22:36.279 --> 00:22:37.920
<v Speaker 3>pick it up and they knew there was an airplane

416
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:39.880
<v Speaker 3>come in their way. So they were doing this in

417
00:22:39.920 --> 00:22:42.279
<v Speaker 3>the thirties, So you know it's not a new idea,

418
00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:46.200
<v Speaker 3>but you know it's a lot more sophisticated nowadays because

419
00:22:46.640 --> 00:22:49.400
<v Speaker 3>we can use correlation techniques to not only figure out

420
00:22:49.400 --> 00:22:52.359
<v Speaker 3>the presence of that signal, but get the time delay.

421
00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:55.519
<v Speaker 3>So the time delay you can do by by grabbing

422
00:22:55.519 --> 00:22:58.720
<v Speaker 3>a sample of the of the direct signal and comparing

423
00:22:58.759 --> 00:23:01.039
<v Speaker 3>it to the echo and you can measure that delay.

424
00:23:01.359 --> 00:23:03.559
<v Speaker 3>And the delay is you know, the path length of

425
00:23:03.640 --> 00:23:06.880
<v Speaker 3>the signal going out to the object and coming back.

426
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:09.799
<v Speaker 3>So just like in active radar, where you're measuring that

427
00:23:09.839 --> 00:23:12.400
<v Speaker 3>time delay and that tells you the distance. Same thing

428
00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:14.279
<v Speaker 3>that with passive radar too.

429
00:23:15.319 --> 00:23:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Now a lot, not a lot, but a number of

430
00:23:18.680 --> 00:23:22.039
<v Speaker 1>times I've heard over the years that a UFO doesn't

431
00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:24.039
<v Speaker 1>show up on radar. You don't know if it has

432
00:23:24.079 --> 00:23:27.680
<v Speaker 1>some type of stealth technology or whatever it is. That

433
00:23:27.720 --> 00:23:31.279
<v Speaker 1>would be discouraging if this all gets set in place

434
00:23:31.319 --> 00:23:35.559
<v Speaker 1>and then, But a lot of them do are seen

435
00:23:35.640 --> 00:23:37.960
<v Speaker 1>on radar. And I'm not sure if you're familiar with

436
00:23:38.359 --> 00:23:42.559
<v Speaker 1>the Jack Buschong case, the weather case in Michigan in

437
00:23:42.640 --> 00:23:46.799
<v Speaker 1>nineteen ninety four, not by name, okay, Jack Bouchong. He

438
00:23:46.920 --> 00:23:49.000
<v Speaker 1>was a weather It was a weather He was a

439
00:23:49.000 --> 00:23:52.680
<v Speaker 1>weather person and working with weather radar and looking at

440
00:23:52.759 --> 00:23:56.279
<v Speaker 1>something that ascended instantly to five thousand feet and then

441
00:23:56.319 --> 00:23:59.240
<v Speaker 1>up to ten thousand feet and was all over Lake Michigan,

442
00:23:59.400 --> 00:24:02.359
<v Speaker 1>I believe was Michigan. But I'll send you that information

443
00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:04.200
<v Speaker 1>because I just think for your own interest you may

444
00:24:04.240 --> 00:24:07.640
<v Speaker 1>really want to take a look at that one in particular.

445
00:24:08.079 --> 00:24:10.480
<v Speaker 1>But so we have a couple of questions in here.

446
00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Let me just pop them up and we'll get through

447
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:15.759
<v Speaker 1>them real quickly. Are you part of MOPAS study, m

448
00:24:15.880 --> 00:24:17.640
<v Speaker 1>up AS study.

449
00:24:17.720 --> 00:24:18.480
<v Speaker 2>Do you know what that is?

450
00:24:19.559 --> 00:24:21.000
<v Speaker 1>If you don't know what that is, you're not part

451
00:24:21.039 --> 00:24:26.319
<v Speaker 1>of it. Okay, all right, so that answers that there's

452
00:24:26.359 --> 00:24:30.640
<v Speaker 1>another one here. Are you incorporating the information you get

453
00:24:30.799 --> 00:24:35.640
<v Speaker 1>with passive r F radar data with UFO hunting. Yes,

454
00:24:35.680 --> 00:24:37.319
<v Speaker 1>that's what this is all about, right.

455
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:38.319
<v Speaker 2>Basically it is.

456
00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:40.319
<v Speaker 3>But I mean we're not quite there yet too.

457
00:24:40.200 --> 00:24:42.519
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I know. Yeah, Well we'll go as we go

458
00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:43.160
<v Speaker 2>along here.

459
00:24:43.079 --> 00:24:46.759
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I mean, yeah, that's what this is for the

460
00:24:46.920 --> 00:24:47.319
<v Speaker 3>whole Yeah.

461
00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:48.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

462
00:24:48.839 --> 00:24:51.240
<v Speaker 3>The real question is are we integrating on other data?

463
00:24:51.279 --> 00:24:54.920
<v Speaker 3>That's because our data that we collect is for UFOs.

464
00:24:55.039 --> 00:24:55.839
<v Speaker 3>That's the whole point.

465
00:24:56.359 --> 00:25:01.839
<v Speaker 1>M And how how exactly would this network? I know

466
00:25:01.880 --> 00:25:04.480
<v Speaker 1>you have a plan of like if you had so

467
00:25:04.599 --> 00:25:08.480
<v Speaker 1>many units throughout, saye, for instance, throughout the United States

468
00:25:08.880 --> 00:25:11.960
<v Speaker 1>in certain areas, can you kind of explain how that

469
00:25:12.000 --> 00:25:12.519
<v Speaker 1>would work?

470
00:25:14.319 --> 00:25:16.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean maybe it would help if I back

471
00:25:16.319 --> 00:25:19.279
<v Speaker 3>up a little bit and kind of paying a bigger picture. Sure,

472
00:25:19.319 --> 00:25:21.640
<v Speaker 3>maybe can drill down a little bit, but yeah, that

473
00:25:21.759 --> 00:25:25.960
<v Speaker 3>makes sense. Historically, it was about two thousand or so

474
00:25:26.079 --> 00:25:29.440
<v Speaker 3>I came across Peter Davenport's paper. Peter Davenport is the

475
00:25:29.480 --> 00:25:32.839
<v Speaker 3>director of the National UFO Reporting Center, and he published

476
00:25:32.880 --> 00:25:34.559
<v Speaker 3>a paper I think it was ninety.

477
00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:38.480
<v Speaker 2>Five someone just wrote about that right in chat here.

478
00:25:38.559 --> 00:25:41.440
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yeah, yeah, So it came out. I didn't see

479
00:25:41.440 --> 00:25:44.480
<v Speaker 3>it until about two thousand. It said, hey, I want

480
00:25:44.519 --> 00:25:47.759
<v Speaker 3>to use why don't we use passive radar for UFO detection. Well,

481
00:25:47.839 --> 00:25:50.400
<v Speaker 3>I had just built a bunch of passive radar receivers

482
00:25:50.400 --> 00:25:53.960
<v Speaker 3>for weather and knew everything about it. So I contacted

483
00:25:53.960 --> 00:25:58.079
<v Speaker 3>Peter and said, I can help you out here fast forward,

484
00:25:58.160 --> 00:26:02.319
<v Speaker 3>like it always turned doubt that all these things are

485
00:26:02.359 --> 00:26:04.839
<v Speaker 3>hobby projects, you know, And do I have time to

486
00:26:04.880 --> 00:26:07.759
<v Speaker 3>work on it? You know, it's always a question. I

487
00:26:07.799 --> 00:26:10.079
<v Speaker 3>would love to work on it, but whereas you know,

488
00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:12.160
<v Speaker 3>I have a full time job. So what do you do?

489
00:26:13.599 --> 00:26:17.640
<v Speaker 3>So around I don't know. It's like twenty eighteen or

490
00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:20.640
<v Speaker 3>so I realized, hey, wait a minute, they've come out

491
00:26:20.640 --> 00:26:23.920
<v Speaker 3>with these digital you know, software defined radios. Just a

492
00:26:23.920 --> 00:26:26.119
<v Speaker 3>little dongle that costs twenty five bucks that you can

493
00:26:26.119 --> 00:26:28.440
<v Speaker 3>plug into your computer, and all of a sudden you

494
00:26:28.440 --> 00:26:30.440
<v Speaker 3>have a receiver that you can tune to any channel.

495
00:26:31.319 --> 00:26:33.519
<v Speaker 3>And I thought, well this is great because you know,

496
00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:37.119
<v Speaker 3>the big you know, a really annoying part of making

497
00:26:37.160 --> 00:26:39.720
<v Speaker 3>a passive radars you have to make the receiver. That's

498
00:26:39.920 --> 00:26:42.559
<v Speaker 3>kind of what it is the receiver here. You already

499
00:26:42.599 --> 00:26:44.960
<v Speaker 3>have the receiver now, it's just the software that that

500
00:26:45.079 --> 00:26:48.640
<v Speaker 3>processes it. So I started messing around with passive radar.

501
00:26:49.240 --> 00:26:53.279
<v Speaker 3>Then I contacted Peter Davenport again, you know, kept up

502
00:26:53.319 --> 00:26:56.000
<v Speaker 3>with them about this new technology, and I'm playing with it,

503
00:26:56.039 --> 00:26:58.920
<v Speaker 3>et cetera, et cetera. And then you know, I'll get

504
00:26:58.960 --> 00:27:03.039
<v Speaker 3>the dates wrong. But was twenty twenty one where Avi

505
00:27:03.160 --> 00:27:07.119
<v Speaker 3>Lobe announced the start of the Galileo project, and I

506
00:27:07.160 --> 00:27:11.319
<v Speaker 3>remember reading about it. I remember the plan because I

507
00:27:11.319 --> 00:27:14.519
<v Speaker 3>saw the plan was he wanted to get these half

508
00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:19.480
<v Speaker 3>half meter telescopes one hundred of them or fifty I

509
00:27:19.480 --> 00:27:21.720
<v Speaker 3>think fifty one hundred, I don't know, and put them

510
00:27:21.720 --> 00:27:23.400
<v Speaker 3>all around the country. I looked at was there were

511
00:27:23.400 --> 00:27:26.920
<v Speaker 3>a million dollars apiece. So I thought, okay, fifty million dollars,

512
00:27:27.039 --> 00:27:30.279
<v Speaker 3>got it, and they're gonna look for UFOs. And the

513
00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:33.920
<v Speaker 3>first thing I thought is you can't really find a

514
00:27:34.039 --> 00:27:38.440
<v Speaker 3>UFO with the telescope that doesn't work. Telescope has this

515
00:27:38.880 --> 00:27:43.039
<v Speaker 3>super narrow, you know, rained field of view that you're

516
00:27:43.079 --> 00:27:46.279
<v Speaker 3>never gonna you're not going to detect the UFO if

517
00:27:46.319 --> 00:27:47.960
<v Speaker 3>there was, if he knew where one was you can

518
00:27:48.039 --> 00:27:49.759
<v Speaker 3>point at it, but you're not going to detect. So

519
00:27:49.799 --> 00:27:52.599
<v Speaker 3>I thought, I, you know, that group needs me. So

520
00:27:52.680 --> 00:27:57.039
<v Speaker 3>I contacted Avi Lobe and by the way, he he's

521
00:27:57.480 --> 00:28:01.480
<v Speaker 3>infamous or famous for he's really good at replying to emails.

522
00:28:01.599 --> 00:28:02.319
<v Speaker 2>I can't believe it.

523
00:28:02.559 --> 00:28:05.440
<v Speaker 3>So within fifteen minutes he had replied to me like, oh,

524
00:28:05.440 --> 00:28:07.880
<v Speaker 3>that's interesting, because I said, you know, you might need

525
00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:10.400
<v Speaker 3>a passive radar to tell you where to point your telescopes,

526
00:28:10.440 --> 00:28:14.440
<v Speaker 3>you know. So then I took me a little while

527
00:28:14.519 --> 00:28:16.960
<v Speaker 3>to kind of convince the Galileo project that I should

528
00:28:16.960 --> 00:28:18.880
<v Speaker 3>be a team member. And I got on and I

529
00:28:18.920 --> 00:28:22.000
<v Speaker 3>started to develop that you know, prototype, and I felt,

530
00:28:22.200 --> 00:28:25.640
<v Speaker 3>even though it's still hobby project, a little bit more motivated,

531
00:28:25.680 --> 00:28:27.359
<v Speaker 3>you know, because I'm working with a team of like,

532
00:28:27.440 --> 00:28:30.000
<v Speaker 3>this is a really impressive team. Their project is full

533
00:28:30.039 --> 00:28:34.839
<v Speaker 3>of really top notch scientists that have really great personalities

534
00:28:34.839 --> 00:28:38.680
<v Speaker 3>and everything. It's like a really nice group, and you know,

535
00:28:38.680 --> 00:28:42.279
<v Speaker 3>I worked with them and I did develop the first prototype.

536
00:28:42.319 --> 00:28:44.160
<v Speaker 3>And by the way, when I got the first prototype

537
00:28:44.160 --> 00:28:46.599
<v Speaker 3>to work, it kind of blew my mind because I

538
00:28:46.640 --> 00:28:49.920
<v Speaker 3>had worked on passive radar for weather research, but I

539
00:28:49.960 --> 00:28:54.000
<v Speaker 3>had never worked on it for you know, point target detection.

540
00:28:54.759 --> 00:28:57.880
<v Speaker 3>And when I got my first image, and this is

541
00:28:57.920 --> 00:29:01.640
<v Speaker 3>really cool, this passive radar, because you know, I'm using

542
00:29:01.799 --> 00:29:06.119
<v Speaker 3>FM radios, as they called the transmitter of opportunity, So

543
00:29:06.160 --> 00:29:09.920
<v Speaker 3>I'm taking advantage of FM transmitters that are around. They're

544
00:29:10.000 --> 00:29:13.200
<v Speaker 3>really actually transmitting a tremendous amount of power, like one

545
00:29:13.240 --> 00:29:18.440
<v Speaker 3>hundred thousand watts equivalent power. They're transmitting in all directions. Wow,

546
00:29:18.759 --> 00:29:21.799
<v Speaker 3>So you know I'm used to you know, when you

547
00:29:22.480 --> 00:29:25.160
<v Speaker 3>have weather radar, you're transmitting a beam, a pencil beam,

548
00:29:25.680 --> 00:29:28.440
<v Speaker 3>kind of just like a flashlight beam, right, it's just

549
00:29:28.480 --> 00:29:31.440
<v Speaker 3>in one direction. But here it's transmitting in all directions.

550
00:29:31.480 --> 00:29:34.759
<v Speaker 3>And then I'm using an antenna that's also omnidirectional that

551
00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:37.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm picking up in all directions. So when I get

552
00:29:37.279 --> 00:29:41.759
<v Speaker 3>the receiver signal the echoes, I'm actually seeing everything that's

553
00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:44.960
<v Speaker 3>in the sky within like one hundred mile radius. And

554
00:29:45.000 --> 00:29:47.759
<v Speaker 3>so my first time I saw detections, I saw like

555
00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:51.559
<v Speaker 3>fifty things. I'm like, WHOA. So it's really incredible what

556
00:29:51.640 --> 00:29:53.759
<v Speaker 3>you can do. It's all it is is a radar receiver,

557
00:29:53.839 --> 00:29:57.319
<v Speaker 3>but then some software on the back end to process

558
00:29:57.359 --> 00:30:00.559
<v Speaker 3>it and figure out those the correlations and the distances.

559
00:30:01.240 --> 00:30:03.359
<v Speaker 2>So how do you weed out like a.

560
00:30:03.319 --> 00:30:06.599
<v Speaker 1>Bird or how do you weed out things planes, birds

561
00:30:06.960 --> 00:30:09.519
<v Speaker 1>and other things that you typically can see in the sky.

562
00:30:10.720 --> 00:30:14.039
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean there's all sorts of things you have

563
00:30:14.119 --> 00:30:16.680
<v Speaker 3>to do to the data to kind of clean it

564
00:30:16.759 --> 00:30:20.240
<v Speaker 3>up like that A big thing you can do. You know,

565
00:30:20.279 --> 00:30:22.000
<v Speaker 3>the number one thing we would do if we were

566
00:30:22.119 --> 00:30:25.799
<v Speaker 3>installing this is you also have an ADSB receiver. So

567
00:30:26.119 --> 00:30:29.400
<v Speaker 3>if no one's heard of the ADSB all airplanes now

568
00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:32.759
<v Speaker 3>and more and more, it's may become a standard that's required,

569
00:30:32.839 --> 00:30:35.119
<v Speaker 3>but it's pretty much a ninety five percent of all

570
00:30:35.200 --> 00:30:40.200
<v Speaker 3>aircraft have a transponder and they're constantly sending out their

571
00:30:40.240 --> 00:30:43.480
<v Speaker 3>position and their velocity, you know, as measured by GPS,

572
00:30:43.599 --> 00:30:46.880
<v Speaker 3>so really accurate measure of their position velocity, and so

573
00:30:47.640 --> 00:30:50.599
<v Speaker 3>you can you can find out which dot corresponds to

574
00:30:50.640 --> 00:30:54.319
<v Speaker 3>which airplane like instantly and cancel out ninety five percent

575
00:30:54.359 --> 00:30:57.039
<v Speaker 3>of all airplanes I see, and then you're left with

576
00:30:58.039 --> 00:31:01.279
<v Speaker 3>you know, birds are kind of easy to cancel because

577
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:03.559
<v Speaker 3>because you can't really see them after a couple of kilometers.

578
00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:07.359
<v Speaker 3>After ten kilometers, you're not seeing any birds because they're

579
00:31:07.400 --> 00:31:10.200
<v Speaker 3>just too small. And you know, there's so there's a

580
00:31:10.200 --> 00:31:13.680
<v Speaker 3>lot of things like that where even just the ADSB

581
00:31:13.839 --> 00:31:18.599
<v Speaker 3>receiver would pretty much make you give you a blank

582
00:31:18.680 --> 00:31:22.039
<v Speaker 3>display except UFOs. So I'm exaggerating a little bit, but

583
00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:24.599
<v Speaker 3>you're You're off to a good start, That's what I'm saying.

584
00:31:26.839 --> 00:31:28.279
<v Speaker 3>But let me let me just go on a little

585
00:31:28.319 --> 00:31:29.799
<v Speaker 3>bit to kind of paint the big picture and we

586
00:31:29.839 --> 00:31:31.720
<v Speaker 3>can dive into some questions. But I just want to

587
00:31:31.880 --> 00:31:35.640
<v Speaker 3>say that the gal LEYO project didn't have the exact

588
00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:42.720
<v Speaker 3>same direction as I do. They have. Their idea is

589
00:31:42.759 --> 00:31:48.400
<v Speaker 3>to make a high quality you know station, multi instrument station,

590
00:31:49.359 --> 00:31:52.279
<v Speaker 3>and then if an object goes over that, they can

591
00:31:52.359 --> 00:31:55.279
<v Speaker 3>measure everything about it. Like they have emission detectors, they

592
00:31:55.319 --> 00:31:58.680
<v Speaker 3>have particle detectors, they have you know, optical telescopes. So

593
00:31:58.720 --> 00:32:01.079
<v Speaker 3>they have this radar, they have all these things that

594
00:32:01.079 --> 00:32:03.960
<v Speaker 3>would measure it all at once and get all these

595
00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:09.160
<v Speaker 3>parameters on it. To me, I have this experience with

596
00:32:09.240 --> 00:32:13.000
<v Speaker 3>the storm chasing radar trucks. You are you aware of those? Yes,

597
00:32:13.119 --> 00:32:15.039
<v Speaker 3>might have seen them on TV right. They there is

598
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:18.960
<v Speaker 3>a radar weather radar on a truck and the point

599
00:32:19.000 --> 00:32:22.559
<v Speaker 3>of them is they want to study tornadoes. We've always

600
00:32:22.599 --> 00:32:24.920
<v Speaker 3>been you know, whether research wanted to study tornados, but

601
00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:28.160
<v Speaker 3>they never come by our big thirty foot dish systems

602
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:30.960
<v Speaker 3>that are on a concrete pad. Right, how often does

603
00:32:31.000 --> 00:32:35.359
<v Speaker 3>a tornado fly by? So you know, in terms of

604
00:32:35.400 --> 00:32:38.160
<v Speaker 3>instrument design, we decided, well, we got to take the

605
00:32:38.200 --> 00:32:40.640
<v Speaker 3>instrument to the tornado. That's how you're going to get

606
00:32:40.640 --> 00:32:43.519
<v Speaker 3>tornado data. So we made a mobile truck that did that.

607
00:32:44.160 --> 00:32:49.160
<v Speaker 3>So you know that is burnt into my memory or

608
00:32:49.200 --> 00:32:52.640
<v Speaker 3>run to my you know DNA. That that's part of

609
00:32:52.720 --> 00:32:55.039
<v Speaker 3>instrument design. You don't want to just have a good

610
00:32:55.119 --> 00:32:58.039
<v Speaker 3>quality instrument, but you need to get data. And who

611
00:32:58.079 --> 00:32:59.839
<v Speaker 3>cares if you have a good instrument and never sees

612
00:32:59.880 --> 00:33:02.440
<v Speaker 3>a UFO And I've never seen one, so what are

613
00:33:02.519 --> 00:33:05.079
<v Speaker 3>you know, what are the chances of one person you know,

614
00:33:05.200 --> 00:33:07.960
<v Speaker 3>or one fixed sight having a UFO fly over it?

615
00:33:08.000 --> 00:33:08.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

616
00:33:09.079 --> 00:33:10.319
<v Speaker 2>That's always been the problem.

617
00:33:10.440 --> 00:33:13.160
<v Speaker 1>That's why science hasn't really taken this seriously in a

618
00:33:13.200 --> 00:33:17.720
<v Speaker 1>long time, because it's a bleeding situation. You know, it's right,

619
00:33:18.079 --> 00:33:19.279
<v Speaker 1>like something repeatable.

620
00:33:20.000 --> 00:33:22.119
<v Speaker 3>So, oh, I have so much to say about that.

621
00:33:22.160 --> 00:33:25.119
<v Speaker 3>In fact, it's I mean, that's such a stumbling block

622
00:33:25.200 --> 00:33:29.160
<v Speaker 3>for science. Science has a real problem with the experiments

623
00:33:29.200 --> 00:33:32.960
<v Speaker 3>that aren't repeatable, right, I think. I think I once

624
00:33:33.000 --> 00:33:36.680
<v Speaker 3>I tweeted a tweeted a thing where it said uf

625
00:33:36.680 --> 00:33:40.119
<v Speaker 3>A witness. I saw a UFO and scientists, can you

626
00:33:40.160 --> 00:33:41.440
<v Speaker 3>repeat it? Witness?

627
00:33:41.839 --> 00:33:41.880
<v Speaker 2>No?

628
00:33:42.839 --> 00:33:46.000
<v Speaker 3>Scientists? Okay, bye? You know, like, yeah, what do you do?

629
00:33:46.119 --> 00:33:46.279
<v Speaker 3>You know?

630
00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:48.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

631
00:33:48.359 --> 00:33:52.039
<v Speaker 3>But anyway, uh So my thought was, I need to

632
00:33:52.519 --> 00:33:56.240
<v Speaker 3>this needs to be all over the country because wherever

633
00:33:56.279 --> 00:33:59.160
<v Speaker 3>a UFO is, I want to have this radar receiving it.

634
00:33:59.799 --> 00:34:02.039
<v Speaker 3>And it's just since it's just a receiver. But then

635
00:34:02.079 --> 00:34:05.119
<v Speaker 3>with sophisticated software, no one cares if the software is

636
00:34:05.160 --> 00:34:09.159
<v Speaker 3>sophisticated because that doesn't cost anything, right, and the receiver

637
00:34:09.280 --> 00:34:11.920
<v Speaker 3>is not that costly either, So this could be something

638
00:34:11.920 --> 00:34:14.159
<v Speaker 3>that you could duplicate and put all over the place.

639
00:34:14.760 --> 00:34:17.079
<v Speaker 3>But then you have a problem. You know, you don't

640
00:34:17.079 --> 00:34:20.119
<v Speaker 3>want to staff that with scientists. You know, that's just

641
00:34:20.199 --> 00:34:22.880
<v Speaker 3>impractical to have those all over the country and have

642
00:34:23.320 --> 00:34:26.519
<v Speaker 3>a Galileo Project scientist on each one. You know, we

643
00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:29.079
<v Speaker 3>just there's just not enough people to do that. So

644
00:34:29.119 --> 00:34:31.199
<v Speaker 3>it has to be something more plug and play, more

645
00:34:31.280 --> 00:34:35.360
<v Speaker 3>like a consumer project product. So that's where this kind

646
00:34:35.400 --> 00:34:38.679
<v Speaker 3>of whole thing births from. It's like, wow, passive radar

647
00:34:38.760 --> 00:34:42.960
<v Speaker 3>is incredible, but also, you know, let's get it everywhere

648
00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:46.119
<v Speaker 3>so that our statistics get up, and then you know,

649
00:34:46.159 --> 00:34:49.159
<v Speaker 3>since we have it everywhere, it's got to be citizens science.

650
00:34:49.280 --> 00:34:51.519
<v Speaker 3>So you can see the logic progression there. It seems

651
00:34:51.559 --> 00:34:54.440
<v Speaker 3>like a pretty reasonable direction to go.

652
00:34:55.320 --> 00:34:57.360
<v Speaker 2>Before we go much further than that.

653
00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:01.159
<v Speaker 1>When you say plug and play, is there an aspect

654
00:35:01.199 --> 00:35:05.119
<v Speaker 1>of whatever the equipment is out of doors, like so

655
00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:09.079
<v Speaker 1>it can be out in the open and catch something

656
00:35:09.280 --> 00:35:11.519
<v Speaker 1>or is this something internal in a home?

657
00:35:13.119 --> 00:35:15.920
<v Speaker 3>I mean it would it would be like a modem

658
00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:18.400
<v Speaker 3>kind of a thing that's in your home, but there

659
00:35:18.400 --> 00:35:19.960
<v Speaker 3>would be a record that goes out to some kind

660
00:35:19.960 --> 00:35:21.000
<v Speaker 3>of antenna on the roof.

661
00:35:21.480 --> 00:35:21.880
<v Speaker 2>I see.

662
00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:25.880
<v Speaker 1>Okay, And that was a question here that was what

663
00:35:25.920 --> 00:35:28.719
<v Speaker 1>type of antenna and radius submitter are you using for

664
00:35:28.760 --> 00:35:29.559
<v Speaker 1>the passive radar?

665
00:35:29.679 --> 00:35:30.280
<v Speaker 2>That's a question.

666
00:35:31.320 --> 00:35:31.559
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

667
00:35:31.559 --> 00:35:34.960
<v Speaker 1>Well one thing is that remember there's no emitter, so okay,

668
00:35:35.000 --> 00:35:36.039
<v Speaker 1>it's only coming in.

669
00:35:36.400 --> 00:35:39.039
<v Speaker 2>So that's why it's called passive basically, right.

670
00:35:39.480 --> 00:35:41.920
<v Speaker 3>And by the way, some people have said, like I

671
00:35:41.920 --> 00:35:44.920
<v Speaker 3>don't want to be, you know, announcing to the aliens

672
00:35:44.920 --> 00:35:47.639
<v Speaker 3>that I'm looking for them. No, you're just receiving, So

673
00:35:47.719 --> 00:35:50.480
<v Speaker 3>you're totally delf. Nobody knows you're doing this.

674
00:35:51.039 --> 00:35:54.960
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmmm, yeah, only I see so.

675
00:35:55.519 --> 00:35:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Uh and and would it be all this information be

676
00:35:59.119 --> 00:36:01.320
<v Speaker 1>fed real time into some type of server.

677
00:36:02.960 --> 00:36:05.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so, so how it works. So, now, let's say

678
00:36:05.840 --> 00:36:09.880
<v Speaker 3>you have all these receivers all across the country, all

679
00:36:10.039 --> 00:36:12.760
<v Speaker 3>picking up all these echoes from all sorts of things

680
00:36:12.800 --> 00:36:16.400
<v Speaker 3>in the sky. That has to get combined in a

681
00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:19.679
<v Speaker 3>kind of a pyramid server kind of style. So you know,

682
00:36:20.480 --> 00:36:23.079
<v Speaker 3>there'd be a server local to several receivers that would

683
00:36:23.119 --> 00:36:25.280
<v Speaker 3>combine them, and then that information will go to the

684
00:36:25.320 --> 00:36:27.960
<v Speaker 3>second pyramid and part of the pyramid, and it would

685
00:36:27.960 --> 00:36:30.800
<v Speaker 3>all get combined into like a national database that could

686
00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:34.519
<v Speaker 3>be displayed just like you can go to you know,

687
00:36:34.679 --> 00:36:37.480
<v Speaker 3>flight Aware and you can see all the airplanes flying

688
00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:41.960
<v Speaker 3>over America I have. Yeah, you'd see a map that's

689
00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:47.760
<v Speaker 3>like here's all the UFOs over America. That's kind of idea.

690
00:36:49.400 --> 00:36:55.239
<v Speaker 3>And you know it does work. So one receiver, one receiver.

691
00:36:55.320 --> 00:37:00.280
<v Speaker 3>Since it's an omnidirectional antenna and omni ejectritional receiver, you

692
00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:02.679
<v Speaker 3>only know a delay, so you can you can't really

693
00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:06.760
<v Speaker 3>localize one of the points on a single receiver. It

694
00:37:06.800 --> 00:37:11.760
<v Speaker 3>has to be mixed with actually takes four to get

695
00:37:11.920 --> 00:37:15.440
<v Speaker 3>an exact position. So that's where the grid comes in

696
00:37:15.880 --> 00:37:17.880
<v Speaker 3>to make sure there's enough so that anything in the

697
00:37:17.920 --> 00:37:20.280
<v Speaker 3>sky would be measured by four receivers. And if you

698
00:37:20.320 --> 00:37:24.159
<v Speaker 3>work out those numbers, it's about about a thirty kilometer

699
00:37:25.239 --> 00:37:29.679
<v Speaker 3>grid mesh of receivers across the country, which is about

700
00:37:29.679 --> 00:37:33.199
<v Speaker 3>ten thousand receivers. So that's where the numbers come from.

701
00:37:33.440 --> 00:37:35.760
<v Speaker 3>But on the other hand, if you had four receivers

702
00:37:35.800 --> 00:37:38.079
<v Speaker 3>in one city, that'd be enough to see anything that

703
00:37:38.159 --> 00:37:40.519
<v Speaker 3>goes over that city because they can see out one

704
00:37:40.559 --> 00:37:44.199
<v Speaker 3>hundred kilometers, which is way bigger than a city.

705
00:37:44.320 --> 00:37:46.039
<v Speaker 2>How would this could this work?

706
00:37:46.400 --> 00:37:48.760
<v Speaker 1>And some And I'm getting a lot of questions also

707
00:37:48.880 --> 00:37:52.719
<v Speaker 1>even I didn't even do that.

708
00:37:52.760 --> 00:37:53.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know how that happened.

709
00:37:54.119 --> 00:37:59.159
<v Speaker 1>But I'm getting a lot of questions, even from you know, Bill,

710
00:37:59.239 --> 00:38:01.280
<v Speaker 1>who you talked to, you know before we went live.

711
00:38:01.440 --> 00:38:02.760
<v Speaker 2>He's got a couple of questions too.

712
00:38:03.119 --> 00:38:10.079
<v Speaker 1>So all right, say, first of all, is this something

713
00:38:10.119 --> 00:38:13.079
<v Speaker 1>that you you're working to get? This has to be

714
00:38:13.159 --> 00:38:17.639
<v Speaker 1>funded more, and I believe you're you're looking for a

715
00:38:17.679 --> 00:38:20.880
<v Speaker 1>philanthrothist or someone to help with this, because this is

716
00:38:20.920 --> 00:38:23.159
<v Speaker 1>a major amount of money to get this thing rolling.

717
00:38:24.039 --> 00:38:25.679
<v Speaker 2>Is that where it is at this point?

718
00:38:26.440 --> 00:38:29.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean just to let you know, so I'm

719
00:38:29.639 --> 00:38:32.840
<v Speaker 3>very familiar with these kind of project developments. This is

720
00:38:32.880 --> 00:38:37.079
<v Speaker 3>like a six million dollar project. So what I'm talking

721
00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:41.039
<v Speaker 3>about is the NRI the non recoverable engineering costs to

722
00:38:41.119 --> 00:38:45.920
<v Speaker 3>turn this into a consumer product with a you know,

723
00:38:46.000 --> 00:38:51.920
<v Speaker 3>a sales department, a you know, shipping and receiving, and

724
00:38:51.960 --> 00:38:56.519
<v Speaker 3>the infrastructure to support the customers and all that stuff. Manufacturing,

725
00:38:56.559 --> 00:39:01.079
<v Speaker 3>everything that goes into consumer product we're going to put

726
00:39:01.079 --> 00:39:04.880
<v Speaker 3>together and then that the you know, that's about a

727
00:39:04.920 --> 00:39:08.559
<v Speaker 3>twenty four month development cycle where we do prototypes, we

728
00:39:08.679 --> 00:39:13.559
<v Speaker 3>do some studies with universities, select universities work with us.

729
00:39:14.039 --> 00:39:15.880
<v Speaker 3>Until the end of twenty four months, we have a

730
00:39:15.920 --> 00:39:18.280
<v Speaker 3>product where you can then go on a website and

731
00:39:18.280 --> 00:39:20.800
<v Speaker 3>click and buy this thing and put it, you know,

732
00:39:21.039 --> 00:39:22.679
<v Speaker 3>set it up in your house and you plug the

733
00:39:22.719 --> 00:39:26.239
<v Speaker 3>Ethernet teable probably you tell it the Wi Fi address right,

734
00:39:26.760 --> 00:39:27.480
<v Speaker 3>and you're done.

735
00:39:28.000 --> 00:39:33.280
<v Speaker 2>So that then it just that's part of it. An idea.

736
00:39:33.400 --> 00:39:36.800
<v Speaker 2>Say say that you took.

737
00:39:38.840 --> 00:39:41.679
<v Speaker 1>Four of these, you can you set up like a

738
00:39:41.840 --> 00:39:46.400
<v Speaker 1>small part to begin with, just for testing, just so

739
00:39:46.480 --> 00:39:49.159
<v Speaker 1>you can pitch it like if, for instance, if you

740
00:39:49.280 --> 00:39:54.119
<v Speaker 1>actually caught something that was anomalous and unexplainable and all that,

741
00:39:54.440 --> 00:39:57.039
<v Speaker 1>then I think you could really pitch this thing to

742
00:39:57.280 --> 00:40:00.480
<v Speaker 1>get you know, the funding, because if it shows that

743
00:40:00.519 --> 00:40:04.000
<v Speaker 1>there could be a path forward, and then you know,

744
00:40:04.119 --> 00:40:05.320
<v Speaker 1>can you imagine.

745
00:40:04.920 --> 00:40:06.360
<v Speaker 2>How that could work out?

746
00:40:06.400 --> 00:40:09.480
<v Speaker 1>And could there ever be an aspect of being able

747
00:40:09.519 --> 00:40:13.800
<v Speaker 1>to get an image or video or anything of what

748
00:40:13.960 --> 00:40:16.360
<v Speaker 1>is being detected? You know, I know that you're saying

749
00:40:16.360 --> 00:40:18.559
<v Speaker 1>it can be what did you say, eighty kilometers away

750
00:40:18.840 --> 00:40:23.440
<v Speaker 1>or whatever? But is there a way that there could

751
00:40:23.440 --> 00:40:27.639
<v Speaker 1>be some type of other evidence besides just this passive radar?

752
00:40:30.280 --> 00:40:33.639
<v Speaker 3>Let's see are you asking? I thought I heard two questions.

753
00:40:33.679 --> 00:40:35.639
<v Speaker 3>One is can you make a little mini version of this?

754
00:40:35.719 --> 00:40:37.880
<v Speaker 3>And the second I thought I heard was can it

755
00:40:37.880 --> 00:40:39.840
<v Speaker 3>be combined with other instruments? Do you get that?

756
00:40:39.920 --> 00:40:41.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? There there is two questions.

757
00:40:42.159 --> 00:40:44.480
<v Speaker 1>But I'm just trying to think, you know, I'm thinking

758
00:40:44.519 --> 00:40:47.079
<v Speaker 1>about this the way the skeptic will look at this.

759
00:40:47.719 --> 00:40:50.920
<v Speaker 1>They're always trying to, you know, figure out you know,

760
00:40:51.519 --> 00:40:55.280
<v Speaker 1>an answer that's not obviously not like a UFO, And

761
00:40:55.320 --> 00:40:57.280
<v Speaker 1>one of them would be Okay, well we got this

762
00:40:57.400 --> 00:41:03.079
<v Speaker 1>passive radar we triangulated and we watched this thing, you know,

763
00:41:03.159 --> 00:41:06.440
<v Speaker 1>go like ten thousand miles an hour and make a

764
00:41:06.519 --> 00:41:06.960
<v Speaker 1>right turn.

765
00:41:07.159 --> 00:41:09.679
<v Speaker 2>That would be pretty very very convincing, right if you

766
00:41:09.719 --> 00:41:10.559
<v Speaker 2>have something like that.

767
00:41:10.840 --> 00:41:13.519
<v Speaker 1>But but they're also well, there was no video of it,

768
00:41:13.639 --> 00:41:15.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, you know what I mean, there was no

769
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:18.800
<v Speaker 1>witnesses there. You know that you get all those naysayers

770
00:41:19.039 --> 00:41:20.280
<v Speaker 1>and I'm just wondering if there was.

771
00:41:20.960 --> 00:41:22.639
<v Speaker 2>So that was two questions.

772
00:41:23.199 --> 00:41:25.760
<v Speaker 1>But do you ever foresee a time like if this

773
00:41:25.960 --> 00:41:29.400
<v Speaker 1>was built up, that there would be other added features,

774
00:41:29.559 --> 00:41:32.440
<v Speaker 1>for say the cooperation.

775
00:41:33.000 --> 00:41:35.920
<v Speaker 3>Sure, I didn't even you know, there's a lot to

776
00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:38.119
<v Speaker 3>this that I didn't even touch on because so far

777
00:41:38.159 --> 00:41:40.480
<v Speaker 3>we just talked about passive radar. This is actually like

778
00:41:41.039 --> 00:41:43.239
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if trifecta is too strong a word,

779
00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:47.280
<v Speaker 3>but we foresee, what we're trying to build is three

780
00:41:47.320 --> 00:41:50.960
<v Speaker 3>things in one, we want a human database, something like

781
00:41:51.000 --> 00:41:54.079
<v Speaker 3>the National UFO Reporting Center or some other database where

782
00:41:54.159 --> 00:41:56.679
<v Speaker 3>people call in and report what they've seen with their

783
00:41:56.719 --> 00:41:59.960
<v Speaker 3>own eyes. We want also we want the passive rate

784
00:42:00.480 --> 00:42:03.199
<v Speaker 3>that's detecting whatever objects in the sky. And the third

785
00:42:03.280 --> 00:42:06.239
<v Speaker 3>thing is a UFO app, and the idea behind the

786
00:42:06.360 --> 00:42:10.360
<v Speaker 3>UFO app is it's connected to the radar in a

787
00:42:10.400 --> 00:42:13.960
<v Speaker 3>way where I mean, we all know that there's all

788
00:42:14.000 --> 00:42:17.800
<v Speaker 3>sorts of UFOs. I think there's all sorts of UFOs

789
00:42:17.840 --> 00:42:21.239
<v Speaker 3>flying around that people never film. They say they witness something,

790
00:42:21.239 --> 00:42:24.559
<v Speaker 3>but they don't pull out their camera. Right here, you

791
00:42:24.599 --> 00:42:28.320
<v Speaker 3>could have the radar could see something coming, you know,

792
00:42:30.079 --> 00:42:32.360
<v Speaker 3>fifty miles before it's going to get to your house,

793
00:42:32.840 --> 00:42:34.800
<v Speaker 3>and it could send you an alert and said, run

794
00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:38.960
<v Speaker 3>outside and point your phone up into the sky to

795
00:42:39.000 --> 00:42:41.679
<v Speaker 3>the southwest because there's something on its way. So you

796
00:42:41.679 --> 00:42:44.880
<v Speaker 3>could be ready with your phone, ready to record objects

797
00:42:44.920 --> 00:42:47.400
<v Speaker 3>based on what the radar has predicted is going to

798
00:42:47.440 --> 00:42:48.039
<v Speaker 3>come your way.

799
00:42:48.519 --> 00:42:49.000
<v Speaker 2>And then.

800
00:42:50.800 --> 00:42:53.800
<v Speaker 3>You know, if you've ever had the stargazing apps, you

801
00:42:53.840 --> 00:42:57.039
<v Speaker 3>know that your phone knows exactly where the camera's looking. Yeah,

802
00:42:57.159 --> 00:43:00.920
<v Speaker 3>So that information is available to be recorded with the video.

803
00:43:01.119 --> 00:43:04.440
<v Speaker 3>So there's no reason that you can't take that IMU data,

804
00:43:04.920 --> 00:43:08.880
<v Speaker 3>the inertial measurement unit that's on your phone and attach

805
00:43:08.960 --> 00:43:12.840
<v Speaker 3>it to the video so that when researchers have your video,

806
00:43:12.920 --> 00:43:14.599
<v Speaker 3>they not only see the dot in the sky, but

807
00:43:14.639 --> 00:43:17.519
<v Speaker 3>they see how your phone is moving. And then if

808
00:43:17.639 --> 00:43:20.320
<v Speaker 3>multiple people can see that at once with their apps,

809
00:43:20.559 --> 00:43:22.519
<v Speaker 3>which they should be able to because now we're going

810
00:43:22.599 --> 00:43:25.440
<v Speaker 3>to give them advanced notice to run outside. Then you

811
00:43:25.440 --> 00:43:26.280
<v Speaker 3>can triangulate.

812
00:43:26.639 --> 00:43:27.159
<v Speaker 2>So that's a.

813
00:43:27.239 --> 00:43:31.159
<v Speaker 3>Completely independent measurement of the same phenomena that the radar

814
00:43:31.199 --> 00:43:33.880
<v Speaker 3>would be measuring. And plus, if you had an eyewitness,

815
00:43:34.079 --> 00:43:37.679
<v Speaker 3>there would be eyewitness that you might also have other eyewitnesses,

816
00:43:38.159 --> 00:43:40.440
<v Speaker 3>or you could even have an adduction or something like

817
00:43:40.480 --> 00:43:42.920
<v Speaker 3>that that somebody phoned in that has a radar sighting

818
00:43:42.960 --> 00:43:47.280
<v Speaker 3>over the top of it. So, to me, the holy

819
00:43:47.360 --> 00:43:50.280
<v Speaker 3>grail of a UFO report is that you have that

820
00:43:50.400 --> 00:43:54.000
<v Speaker 3>app as an independent measurement of some weird motion in

821
00:43:54.039 --> 00:43:56.320
<v Speaker 3>the sky from some object. Maybe you can even see

822
00:43:56.320 --> 00:43:58.960
<v Speaker 3>the shape of it. You have the radar data of it,

823
00:43:59.039 --> 00:44:03.199
<v Speaker 3>and you have eyewitness reporting of it. You know, let's

824
00:44:03.199 --> 00:44:05.840
<v Speaker 3>give that to some scientific group and see if they

825
00:44:06.159 --> 00:44:07.599
<v Speaker 3>can make any sense out of that.

826
00:44:08.480 --> 00:44:12.159
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no, that's that's all. That's all great. And so

827
00:44:12.199 --> 00:44:15.559
<v Speaker 1>the first part of the question, have you ever considered

828
00:44:15.840 --> 00:44:19.239
<v Speaker 1>like a small set of say four or is it

829
00:44:19.360 --> 00:44:22.039
<v Speaker 1>just so involved that you have to get into the

830
00:44:22.039 --> 00:44:24.639
<v Speaker 1>software and the server and all that I mean is

831
00:44:24.679 --> 00:44:27.159
<v Speaker 1>it would be difficult to test with say four of

832
00:44:27.199 --> 00:44:30.000
<v Speaker 1>them in a certain hotspot location or something.

833
00:44:30.880 --> 00:44:33.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. In fact, for the Galileo project, we set up

834
00:44:33.800 --> 00:44:38.400
<v Speaker 3>five and then and so we recorded data from five things,

835
00:44:38.440 --> 00:44:40.199
<v Speaker 3>and then it came you know, all the data came

836
00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:45.400
<v Speaker 3>to me and there's Mitch, I'll do everything with it. Well,

837
00:44:45.440 --> 00:44:47.920
<v Speaker 3>that's actually kind of a big job. And that's when

838
00:44:47.920 --> 00:44:50.280
<v Speaker 3>I you know, that's when I came up with this idea,

839
00:44:50.400 --> 00:44:53.920
<v Speaker 3>like I think this should be a national project. I

840
00:44:53.920 --> 00:44:55.920
<v Speaker 3>think it should have funding so that I can actually

841
00:44:56.000 --> 00:45:00.239
<v Speaker 3>work on it without losing my day job, you know,

842
00:45:00.280 --> 00:45:03.320
<v Speaker 3>for no pay. So you know, it came down to

843
00:45:03.400 --> 00:45:08.599
<v Speaker 3>kind of practicality, and it actually come for me. It

844
00:45:08.599 --> 00:45:12.320
<v Speaker 3>comes down to two things. One is practicality because actually

845
00:45:12.320 --> 00:45:15.199
<v Speaker 3>I would love to work on this, and I've found

846
00:45:15.239 --> 00:45:17.280
<v Speaker 3>that I have to be so careful to make sure

847
00:45:17.320 --> 00:45:20.880
<v Speaker 3>I don't work on this because it will totally consume

848
00:45:20.960 --> 00:45:24.599
<v Speaker 3>me and then I'll lose my day job. So I

849
00:45:24.639 --> 00:45:26.880
<v Speaker 3>have to It's a it sucks me right in because

850
00:45:26.920 --> 00:45:29.000
<v Speaker 3>I love it so much. So that's one thing. But

851
00:45:29.039 --> 00:45:33.679
<v Speaker 3>the second thing is, you know I've already shown actually

852
00:45:33.760 --> 00:45:36.840
<v Speaker 3>not only have I shown that I can detect those objects,

853
00:45:37.719 --> 00:45:40.280
<v Speaker 3>but you can buy a radar. You can buy like

854
00:45:40.320 --> 00:45:42.920
<v Speaker 3>there's like ten companies that make passive radars that will

855
00:45:42.920 --> 00:45:45.920
<v Speaker 3>show you what's in the sky. The problem is they

856
00:45:45.920 --> 00:45:48.719
<v Speaker 3>cost two and a half million dollars, three million dollars,

857
00:45:48.760 --> 00:45:50.880
<v Speaker 3>four million dollars, so you're not going to have ten

858
00:45:50.920 --> 00:45:55.000
<v Speaker 3>thousand of those around the country. That's not practical, and

859
00:45:55.119 --> 00:45:59.679
<v Speaker 3>probably you can't even buy one because it's you know,

860
00:45:59.679 --> 00:46:04.000
<v Speaker 3>a millilitary thing that you available to people. But they

861
00:46:04.000 --> 00:46:05.800
<v Speaker 3>have them. You can see them on the internet. You

862
00:46:05.840 --> 00:46:08.320
<v Speaker 3>can look up just look up passive radar on the

863
00:46:08.360 --> 00:46:10.480
<v Speaker 3>internet and you'll see, you know, you'll see video some

864
00:46:10.559 --> 00:46:12.960
<v Speaker 3>guide demoing the passive radar. You can see everything in

865
00:46:12.960 --> 00:46:17.119
<v Speaker 3>the sky to two hundred and fifty kilometers. So there's

866
00:46:17.159 --> 00:46:21.039
<v Speaker 3>no doubt that this technology works. In fact, I based

867
00:46:21.079 --> 00:46:23.679
<v Speaker 3>my first prototype off a paper that was written in

868
00:46:23.679 --> 00:46:27.039
<v Speaker 3>two thousand and five, you know whatever, almost twenty years

869
00:46:27.039 --> 00:46:34.639
<v Speaker 3>before I started working on it, that was contemplating whether

870
00:46:34.920 --> 00:46:37.920
<v Speaker 3>it was done by NATO, contemplating whether they should change

871
00:46:37.960 --> 00:46:41.960
<v Speaker 3>all the FAA, their their version of FAA in Europe

872
00:46:42.039 --> 00:46:45.480
<v Speaker 3>over to passive radars. You know that people are taking

873
00:46:45.519 --> 00:46:51.000
<v Speaker 3>it very seriously. It's very mature technology. You know. It's

874
00:46:52.239 --> 00:46:55.880
<v Speaker 3>maybe another another way to prove that it's valuable is

875
00:46:55.920 --> 00:47:01.519
<v Speaker 3>to know that it's it's regular by ITAR, so the

876
00:47:01.639 --> 00:47:06.280
<v Speaker 3>international Trade and Arms regulations. So you can't just build

877
00:47:06.280 --> 00:47:08.320
<v Speaker 3>a if you're not careful. You can't just build one

878
00:47:08.360 --> 00:47:11.079
<v Speaker 3>of these radars and get away and sell it without

879
00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:13.760
<v Speaker 3>violating a law. Because they're so valuable. They can be

880
00:47:13.800 --> 00:47:15.400
<v Speaker 3>used for targeting and for war.

881
00:47:16.280 --> 00:47:20.760
<v Speaker 1>So you know, so what would So so you're you're

882
00:47:20.800 --> 00:47:24.000
<v Speaker 1>talking about a major cost, but you have another idea

883
00:47:24.119 --> 00:47:25.679
<v Speaker 1>for you know, this is going.

884
00:47:25.679 --> 00:47:28.199
<v Speaker 2>To be your your.

885
00:47:28.119 --> 00:47:30.440
<v Speaker 1>Dream here is for this to be more of a

886
00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:34.760
<v Speaker 1>grassroots type of situation. And so where can a price

887
00:47:34.960 --> 00:47:39.360
<v Speaker 1>level go where someone can afford to have some plug

888
00:47:39.400 --> 00:47:40.639
<v Speaker 1>and play type of situation.

889
00:47:41.000 --> 00:47:43.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well, once we do what was called I told

890
00:47:43.320 --> 00:47:46.159
<v Speaker 3>you that non recoverable engineering is like this six million

891
00:47:46.199 --> 00:47:48.760
<v Speaker 3>dollar kind of number where we build this all out,

892
00:47:49.079 --> 00:47:51.760
<v Speaker 3>build all the touoeling the molding, get the infrastructure all

893
00:47:51.800 --> 00:47:56.119
<v Speaker 3>set up to sell all that stuff, and then once

894
00:47:56.159 --> 00:47:59.719
<v Speaker 3>it's for sale, it's like five hundred bucks. So you know,

895
00:47:59.719 --> 00:48:01.679
<v Speaker 3>if you for forty five years, we can find ten

896
00:48:01.719 --> 00:48:04.320
<v Speaker 3>thousand people across the country that can afford five hundred

897
00:48:04.360 --> 00:48:08.039
<v Speaker 3>dollars to answer the question of are we alone? And

898
00:48:08.079 --> 00:48:10.800
<v Speaker 3>I think we can because I'm inundated, by the way,

899
00:48:10.960 --> 00:48:12.239
<v Speaker 3>with people who want to buy it.

900
00:48:12.800 --> 00:48:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I've had a you know, someone already asked me.

901
00:48:17.639 --> 00:48:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah through a text. Yeah, so yeah, that's

902
00:48:21.840 --> 00:48:23.880
<v Speaker 1>that's really something. So we have a couple of questions.

903
00:48:23.880 --> 00:48:27.840
<v Speaker 1>I know, we unfortunately, I have something extremely early in

904
00:48:27.840 --> 00:48:29.960
<v Speaker 1>the morning, and we can't go longer than the regular

905
00:48:30.000 --> 00:48:32.760
<v Speaker 1>time tonight. I mean, I'd love to talk for but

906
00:48:32.840 --> 00:48:36.159
<v Speaker 1>we've got you know, like less than ten minutes left here,

907
00:48:36.760 --> 00:48:39.679
<v Speaker 1>So maybe we can answer some of these questions here.

908
00:48:39.840 --> 00:48:43.440
<v Speaker 1>Could plasma reflections be a reason for why some of

909
00:48:43.440 --> 00:48:47.400
<v Speaker 1>these objects are being detected? I feel that usos underwater

910
00:48:47.440 --> 00:48:51.000
<v Speaker 1>would be more likely detected because of the loss of electrons.

911
00:48:52.119 --> 00:48:56.559
<v Speaker 3>Well, I mean, we get reflections off of any metal objects,

912
00:48:56.559 --> 00:49:00.800
<v Speaker 3>anything are conductive or plasma which is conductive, so we

913
00:49:00.840 --> 00:49:04.719
<v Speaker 3>can see reflections off that stuff. We're not measuring emissions,

914
00:49:04.880 --> 00:49:07.039
<v Speaker 3>so if it, you know, that's not what we're measuring.

915
00:49:08.199 --> 00:49:11.079
<v Speaker 3>And like you touched on this earlier, some people, you know,

916
00:49:11.159 --> 00:49:14.480
<v Speaker 3>maybe these some of these things are stealth mode, you know,

917
00:49:14.519 --> 00:49:18.519
<v Speaker 3>and they're trying to the block radiation. Who knows, But

918
00:49:18.599 --> 00:49:22.440
<v Speaker 3>that's okay because over the history of UFOs, plenty of

919
00:49:22.519 --> 00:49:25.400
<v Speaker 3>UFOs have been seen on radar. That's you know, so

920
00:49:25.960 --> 00:49:28.400
<v Speaker 3>that's fine. You know, people have told me. In fact,

921
00:49:28.400 --> 00:49:31.239
<v Speaker 3>once I was presenting this to a group and I said,

922
00:49:31.440 --> 00:49:33.599
<v Speaker 3>I think we'll see a UFO every week if we

923
00:49:33.679 --> 00:49:35.360
<v Speaker 3>have this setup. Because if by the way, if you

924
00:49:35.360 --> 00:49:38.400
<v Speaker 3>ever had followed the National UFO Reporting Center, I remember

925
00:49:38.480 --> 00:49:41.159
<v Speaker 3>Peter Davenport back in the nineties said, hey, if you

926
00:49:41.159 --> 00:49:45.159
<v Speaker 3>don't believe in UFO, sit with me one night, and

927
00:49:45.199 --> 00:49:47.039
<v Speaker 3>then you know that you can see him fly over

928
00:49:47.119 --> 00:49:49.400
<v Speaker 3>Wyoming and then it goes over to Nebraska. You know,

929
00:49:49.440 --> 00:49:53.440
<v Speaker 3>you can just watch the whole thing. And so, you know,

930
00:49:53.800 --> 00:49:55.559
<v Speaker 3>I said that to this group. I said, I think

931
00:49:55.599 --> 00:49:58.880
<v Speaker 3>we'll you know, we'll see like every week. We'll have

932
00:49:59.159 --> 00:50:01.599
<v Speaker 3>a case that we could prove UFOs are real every week.

933
00:50:01.639 --> 00:50:05.400
<v Speaker 3>And he said. Some guys said, oh no, probably maybe

934
00:50:05.440 --> 00:50:07.559
<v Speaker 3>once a month, and I go, okay, I'll take it

935
00:50:07.679 --> 00:50:09.360
<v Speaker 3>once a month, that's fine.

936
00:50:09.760 --> 00:50:13.400
<v Speaker 2>How about one just one exactly. Yeah.

937
00:50:13.440 --> 00:50:16.400
<v Speaker 1>So it was great meeting up. I met Peter Davin

938
00:50:16.480 --> 00:50:18.599
<v Speaker 1>what I'm sure you did. You saw him there at

939
00:50:18.639 --> 00:50:21.599
<v Speaker 1>the contact of the desert. That was really great to

940
00:50:21.599 --> 00:50:22.039
<v Speaker 1>meet him.

941
00:50:22.199 --> 00:50:22.559
<v Speaker 2>There.

942
00:50:23.239 --> 00:50:27.239
<v Speaker 1>Here's another question here is my understanding was that there

943
00:50:27.280 --> 00:50:31.599
<v Speaker 1>are strict FCC guidelines on using passive our refeerrator.

944
00:50:31.599 --> 00:50:34.239
<v Speaker 2>How does your program work with those restrictions.

945
00:50:34.599 --> 00:50:37.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, the restrictions are I tire the International Trade and

946
00:50:37.360 --> 00:50:41.000
<v Speaker 3>Arms for regulations, and we just make sure that we're

947
00:50:41.039 --> 00:50:44.159
<v Speaker 3>not within their jurisdiction by changing our parameters, so they

948
00:50:44.159 --> 00:50:47.400
<v Speaker 3>were just out of their bounds. So we're fine, and

949
00:50:47.440 --> 00:50:51.559
<v Speaker 3>we're you know, we're receive only so yeah, you know,

950
00:50:51.559 --> 00:50:54.639
<v Speaker 3>you would even question why there's even any regulations that

951
00:50:54.679 --> 00:50:57.119
<v Speaker 3>could affect it because they're my signals.

952
00:50:58.760 --> 00:51:01.280
<v Speaker 2>But anyway, Yeah, another one here.

953
00:51:01.840 --> 00:51:06.320
<v Speaker 1>If such passive radiar array gets reflections from a drone swarm,

954
00:51:06.719 --> 00:51:09.719
<v Speaker 1>how much information are they getting about the individual drones

955
00:51:09.800 --> 00:51:10.679
<v Speaker 1>in that swarm.

956
00:51:12.000 --> 00:51:15.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you always have this issue of whether there's always

957
00:51:15.320 --> 00:51:18.639
<v Speaker 3>a range gate size issue, so you have a minimum

958
00:51:18.719 --> 00:51:21.480
<v Speaker 3>resolution where you can define, you know, what's one thing

959
00:51:21.559 --> 00:51:24.559
<v Speaker 3>versus what's two things. And you know, as far as

960
00:51:24.639 --> 00:51:28.599
<v Speaker 3>like I'll tell you any little swarm of drones that's

961
00:51:28.840 --> 00:51:31.639
<v Speaker 3>near you, you're going to have a hard time, you know,

962
00:51:31.760 --> 00:51:35.360
<v Speaker 3>counting all the drones. And where this thing really excels

963
00:51:35.400 --> 00:51:38.480
<v Speaker 3>the stuff in the atmosphere that's pretty far up and

964
00:51:38.559 --> 00:51:41.599
<v Speaker 3>that's where it's prime. That's where the sweet spot really is.

965
00:51:42.239 --> 00:51:43.840
<v Speaker 3>But I mean, I would love to have these set

966
00:51:43.920 --> 00:51:46.000
<v Speaker 3>up during all that New Jersey stuff because one thing,

967
00:51:46.079 --> 00:51:48.840
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, even if you can't count the drones, we

968
00:51:48.880 --> 00:51:51.039
<v Speaker 3>could have seen where they were going, where they came,

969
00:51:51.360 --> 00:51:52.159
<v Speaker 3>where are they going to?

970
00:51:52.360 --> 00:51:54.880
<v Speaker 1>Like that's a big question. Where'd they come from? Where

971
00:51:54.880 --> 00:51:55.760
<v Speaker 1>they where did they go?

972
00:51:56.199 --> 00:51:58.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? You know if they go straight up into space,

973
00:51:58.960 --> 00:52:00.920
<v Speaker 3>we'd see it and it and you know the cool

974
00:52:00.920 --> 00:52:04.079
<v Speaker 3>thing about passive radar. It could be raining, it could

975
00:52:04.119 --> 00:52:07.039
<v Speaker 3>be snowing, it could be wow, complete fog. It could

976
00:52:07.079 --> 00:52:10.039
<v Speaker 3>be a night, the dead and knight. I mean, we

977
00:52:10.199 --> 00:52:13.840
<v Speaker 3>always talk about lights in the sky only because we

978
00:52:13.920 --> 00:52:16.199
<v Speaker 3>don't see the UFOs that aren't lit up. We only

979
00:52:16.199 --> 00:52:18.039
<v Speaker 3>see the ones that are lit up. There could be

980
00:52:18.119 --> 00:52:21.280
<v Speaker 3>UFOs flying over all the time that don't have self illumination.

981
00:52:22.119 --> 00:52:24.039
<v Speaker 3>This thing will see them. You know.

982
00:52:24.119 --> 00:52:27.639
<v Speaker 1>There was someone I talked to one time that said

983
00:52:27.679 --> 00:52:30.519
<v Speaker 1>they were basically laying on a blanket on their back,

984
00:52:30.639 --> 00:52:33.119
<v Speaker 1>just looking up at a meteor shower, and all of

985
00:52:33.159 --> 00:52:37.000
<v Speaker 1>a sudden they saw a triangular black stars, a shape

986
00:52:37.000 --> 00:52:40.440
<v Speaker 1>of black stars being blacked out in a triangular moving.

987
00:52:40.199 --> 00:52:41.719
<v Speaker 2>Over the sky. No lights.

988
00:52:42.159 --> 00:52:45.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean that that was remarkable. That would be really

989
00:52:45.400 --> 00:52:48.440
<v Speaker 1>something else. Let's see, if I'm going to catch all

990
00:52:48.480 --> 00:52:52.599
<v Speaker 1>these questions, here's a what about tornadoes? This question is

991
00:52:52.599 --> 00:52:57.840
<v Speaker 1>about tornadoes probability and prediction. Right, my remembered experience includes

992
00:52:57.920 --> 00:53:01.760
<v Speaker 1>being warned by NHI about tornadoes five minutes later. Can

993
00:53:01.800 --> 00:53:07.039
<v Speaker 1>you imagine a predictive AI that precise?

994
00:53:07.199 --> 00:53:09.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean, we really haven't had much time to talk.

995
00:53:09.719 --> 00:53:13.960
<v Speaker 1>About AI, but would there be AI involved in any

996
00:53:14.199 --> 00:53:14.800
<v Speaker 1>of this?

997
00:53:16.239 --> 00:53:19.800
<v Speaker 3>Well, to answer that question specifically, I mean, if if

998
00:53:19.840 --> 00:53:23.320
<v Speaker 3>we had a system that would reliably detect UFOs, because,

999
00:53:23.360 --> 00:53:25.960
<v Speaker 3>by the way, this would be so much more reliable

1000
00:53:26.039 --> 00:53:29.320
<v Speaker 3>than witness eyewitnesses because of what we were talking about,

1001
00:53:29.480 --> 00:53:32.800
<v Speaker 3>especially in severe weather, Like in severe weather, it's all

1002
00:53:32.800 --> 00:53:35.800
<v Speaker 3>full of cloud there's clouds, there's hail, there's everything wind blowing,

1003
00:53:35.840 --> 00:53:39.800
<v Speaker 3>and you're probably inside hiding, you know. But if we

1004
00:53:39.880 --> 00:53:42.199
<v Speaker 3>had that data, we could make those correlations. And I'm

1005
00:53:42.199 --> 00:53:44.480
<v Speaker 3>not aware of any you know, I didn't hear that

1006
00:53:44.639 --> 00:53:47.880
<v Speaker 3>correlation between tornadoes and UFO sighting, so I'm not aware

1007
00:53:47.880 --> 00:53:50.400
<v Speaker 3>of that at all, but certainly this data would help

1008
00:53:50.440 --> 00:53:52.639
<v Speaker 3>and could go into somebody's database and they could figure

1009
00:53:52.639 --> 00:53:56.119
<v Speaker 3>out those statistics and then as far as AI. Of

1010
00:53:56.119 --> 00:53:59.119
<v Speaker 3>course this is ripe to throw AI on to look

1011
00:53:59.159 --> 00:54:03.199
<v Speaker 3>for patterns. Still for different things. It's not required because

1012
00:54:03.280 --> 00:54:08.199
<v Speaker 3>the equations to do triangulation don't require AI, so that's

1013
00:54:08.239 --> 00:54:13.320
<v Speaker 3>not a prerequisite to this. But certainly like maybe flagging

1014
00:54:13.400 --> 00:54:15.840
<v Speaker 3>things that look weird, you know that that could be

1015
00:54:15.880 --> 00:54:19.320
<v Speaker 3>an AI, you know, alarms or whatever. But we're going

1016
00:54:19.360 --> 00:54:23.039
<v Speaker 3>to record all the data so that you know, if

1017
00:54:23.480 --> 00:54:25.880
<v Speaker 3>maybe you don't even know anything happened until two weeks

1018
00:54:25.960 --> 00:54:29.599
<v Speaker 3>later someone says they saw something in the sky, you

1019
00:54:29.599 --> 00:54:32.039
<v Speaker 3>could go back two weeks ago and then look at

1020
00:54:32.039 --> 00:54:34.079
<v Speaker 3>the data there and see if there was a reflection

1021
00:54:34.199 --> 00:54:35.159
<v Speaker 3>that was overlooked.

1022
00:54:36.000 --> 00:54:38.239
<v Speaker 1>Now this antenna, would this be something like on a

1023
00:54:38.320 --> 00:54:41.639
<v Speaker 1>rooftop or something where they get a broad view of

1024
00:54:41.800 --> 00:54:42.559
<v Speaker 1>open space?

1025
00:54:44.039 --> 00:54:46.719
<v Speaker 3>Yep, yeah, I mean be very much like a TV antenna,

1026
00:54:47.400 --> 00:54:51.199
<v Speaker 3>you know, And I know that there's hoa rules nowadays,

1027
00:54:51.280 --> 00:54:54.360
<v Speaker 3>you know whatever, But all we need is ten thousand sites, right,

1028
00:54:54.440 --> 00:54:57.480
<v Speaker 3>and ten thousand people who are able to put up

1029
00:54:57.719 --> 00:55:00.679
<v Speaker 3>a TV antenna and you know, maybe or a TV

1030
00:55:00.760 --> 00:55:03.960
<v Speaker 3>intent a looking thing and you know, maybe it doesn't

1031
00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:07.440
<v Speaker 3>fit every single scenario. You know, maybe you have an

1032
00:55:07.440 --> 00:55:10.360
<v Speaker 3>apartment in the on the tenth floor of a twenty

1033
00:55:10.400 --> 00:55:12.719
<v Speaker 3>store story building, and you can't really even get your

1034
00:55:12.719 --> 00:55:18.000
<v Speaker 3>antenna anywhere, you know, So there's definitely a use case

1035
00:55:18.039 --> 00:55:20.400
<v Speaker 3>that makes sense here. But we're just going to do

1036
00:55:20.440 --> 00:55:21.400
<v Speaker 3>the best we can, you know.

1037
00:55:22.079 --> 00:55:24.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I've had a lot of weird thoughts, you know,

1038
00:55:24.679 --> 00:55:27.239
<v Speaker 1>in my mind over the years. But one of the

1039
00:55:27.239 --> 00:55:29.159
<v Speaker 1>things I was thinking one time, I was talking about

1040
00:55:29.159 --> 00:55:32.039
<v Speaker 1>this person that laid out on the grass and looked

1041
00:55:32.079 --> 00:55:34.239
<v Speaker 1>up at the sky, which I've done a lot, and

1042
00:55:34.280 --> 00:55:37.239
<v Speaker 1>whether it's a hot tub or whatever, I love looking

1043
00:55:37.320 --> 00:55:40.480
<v Speaker 1>up at this the night sky. And I've always wondered, like,

1044
00:55:40.559 --> 00:55:43.440
<v Speaker 1>if you had a camera in one location looking right

1045
00:55:43.519 --> 00:55:47.480
<v Speaker 1>up wherever you're at for a hundred years, I imagined

1046
00:55:47.480 --> 00:55:54.480
<v Speaker 1>you'd see amazing, amazing things, you know, UFOs and you know.

1047
00:55:54.519 --> 00:55:57.039
<v Speaker 1>I mean I saw a fireball one time. That's just

1048
00:55:57.519 --> 00:56:01.199
<v Speaker 1>it was such an astonishing thing because as it was round.

1049
00:56:01.199 --> 00:56:02.920
<v Speaker 1>I've to explained this a couple of times, but.

1050
00:56:05.599 --> 00:56:09.159
<v Speaker 2>It was so weird. The fireball I saw was perfectly round,

1051
00:56:09.199 --> 00:56:12.280
<v Speaker 2>it was rotating, It had cracks that looked like lava,

1052
00:56:12.320 --> 00:56:14.800
<v Speaker 2>and the cracks and sparks flying out of it.

1053
00:56:14.920 --> 00:56:17.239
<v Speaker 1>I Mean, the weirdest thing this is in the eighties

1054
00:56:18.039 --> 00:56:21.199
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, I mean the weird things you see when

1055
00:56:21.199 --> 00:56:22.920
<v Speaker 1>you're here outside, I mean.

1056
00:56:22.760 --> 00:56:24.320
<v Speaker 2>They have forever.

1057
00:56:25.239 --> 00:56:27.320
<v Speaker 3>So so you know, when you when you talk about

1058
00:56:27.320 --> 00:56:29.400
<v Speaker 3>putting a camera up, it's a great idea, but there's

1059
00:56:29.440 --> 00:56:32.119
<v Speaker 3>a couple issues about it. One is, you have a

1060
00:56:32.119 --> 00:56:34.239
<v Speaker 3>lot of video that you're never going to look through,

1061
00:56:34.679 --> 00:56:37.840
<v Speaker 3>so you definitely you need some kind of automated system

1062
00:56:37.880 --> 00:56:40.840
<v Speaker 3>that's going to detect weird things. Yeah, and then it

1063
00:56:40.840 --> 00:56:42.599
<v Speaker 3>would be a great idea, but you know, it's not

1064
00:56:42.679 --> 00:56:46.480
<v Speaker 3>as great as is the radar. For one thing, if

1065
00:56:46.519 --> 00:56:48.440
<v Speaker 3>you just put it, Let's say you put ten cameras

1066
00:56:48.440 --> 00:56:50.639
<v Speaker 3>pointing in ten different directions on your roof, so you're

1067
00:56:50.679 --> 00:56:55.239
<v Speaker 3>getting like full sky coverage. Cameras can only see, you know,

1068
00:56:55.320 --> 00:56:58.320
<v Speaker 3>if something is ten kilometers away, it's a dot or

1069
00:56:58.480 --> 00:57:01.199
<v Speaker 3>invisible on a camera. That's kind of like the limit

1070
00:57:01.239 --> 00:57:05.159
<v Speaker 3>of a camera unless it's super bright, you know, but

1071
00:57:05.760 --> 00:57:08.440
<v Speaker 3>how many we don't know anything about. You know what

1072
00:57:08.519 --> 00:57:13.079
<v Speaker 3>if it's not super bright, and then you know, here

1073
00:57:13.480 --> 00:57:15.480
<v Speaker 3>in contrast, you know, the radar can see out one

1074
00:57:15.519 --> 00:57:18.559
<v Speaker 3>hundred kilometers and it also is measuring velocity at the

1075
00:57:18.559 --> 00:57:22.880
<v Speaker 3>same time, so there's a very big difference between a

1076
00:57:23.000 --> 00:57:27.400
<v Speaker 3>radar and a and a camera. Sure, in fact, the

1077
00:57:27.559 --> 00:57:30.360
<v Speaker 3>likelihood are we running out of time?

1078
00:57:30.880 --> 00:57:35.440
<v Speaker 2>We are unfortunately? Yes, okay, against it?

1079
00:57:35.800 --> 00:57:38.599
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, go ahead to get it one, you know, thirty

1080
00:57:38.639 --> 00:57:42.519
<v Speaker 3>second sentence or ten seconds. Yeah, I guess the chance

1081
00:57:42.559 --> 00:57:45.119
<v Speaker 3>of seeing something in the sky is proportional to the

1082
00:57:45.199 --> 00:57:48.159
<v Speaker 3>volume you're seeing, the volume you're looking at, and the

1083
00:57:48.239 --> 00:57:51.239
<v Speaker 3>volume is the cube of the radius. So if you

1084
00:57:51.280 --> 00:57:55.079
<v Speaker 3>can see ten kilometers, let's call that. Let's just normalize

1085
00:57:55.119 --> 00:57:57.480
<v Speaker 3>that and say that's a one. If you could see

1086
00:57:57.480 --> 00:58:02.440
<v Speaker 3>a hundred kilometers, that's like whatever. Ten thousand times more volume,

1087
00:58:02.480 --> 00:58:05.119
<v Speaker 3>ten thousand more chance times have a chance that you're

1088
00:58:05.119 --> 00:58:05.920
<v Speaker 3>going to see something.

1089
00:58:07.280 --> 00:58:10.239
<v Speaker 1>Makes a great point. Yes, all right, Well, thank you

1090
00:58:10.280 --> 00:58:12.440
<v Speaker 1>so much. It's been a real pleasure. I really enjoyed

1091
00:58:12.480 --> 00:58:14.960
<v Speaker 1>talking and I wish you could have been longer. But

1092
00:58:15.119 --> 00:58:17.360
<v Speaker 1>I hope to have you back on, especially if you

1093
00:58:17.360 --> 00:58:19.840
<v Speaker 1>get this thing rolling, and i'd like to if you do,

1094
00:58:19.920 --> 00:58:21.800
<v Speaker 1>I'd like to help out with that any way I can,

1095
00:58:21.960 --> 00:58:23.480
<v Speaker 1>So thanks so much.

1096
00:58:23.719 --> 00:58:25.679
<v Speaker 3>Thank you for having me on. I appreciate it.

1097
00:58:26.039 --> 00:58:30.000
<v Speaker 2>All right, SkyWatch, can someone find you SkyWatch?

1098
00:58:30.079 --> 00:58:35.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, send an Ai dot slash SkyWatch send at ai

1099
00:58:35.239 --> 00:58:39.679
<v Speaker 3>dot com. Slash SkyWatch very good. Okay, take care yep,

1100
00:58:39.719 --> 00:58:41.480
<v Speaker 3>thank you, bye bye, thanks bye.

1101
00:58:41.840 --> 00:58:44.400
<v Speaker 1>All right everyone, so we'll be back this Thursday at

1102
00:58:44.440 --> 00:58:48.840
<v Speaker 1>a pm Eastern with Stacey Wright, and next week as

1103
00:58:48.840 --> 00:58:49.920
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned, with Don Schmid.

1104
00:58:50.000 --> 00:58:50.599
<v Speaker 2>Thanks so much.

1105
00:58:51.000 --> 00:59:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Remember to keep your eyes to the sky. They
