What is the 'Don't Foul the Nest' hypothesis regarding the visitors' intentions?
They are helping us solve technological problems to ensure a better Earth for their own future.
What is the 'Impending Catastrophe Hypothesis' regarding why future humans don't make formal contact?
They may know of an unavoidable disaster, like a polar magnetic shift, and believe it is more humane to keep us in the dark.
Which top advisor to four US presidents stated that UFOs are a top national security concern?
Dr. Harald Malmgren.
What atmospheric nuclear test resulted in UFO debris that Dr. Harald Malmgren personally handled?
Bluegill Triple Prime.
In what type of environment do 'the others' show a strong affinity for operating to remain hidden?
Water or the oceans.
How can the size and mission of a UFO craft be determined according to engineering theories in the text?
By the shape of the craft, which corresponds to the number and arrangement of power sources.
What shape is predicted for a craft generating a single electro-gravitic power field?
A saucer shape.
According to the text, a 'tic tac' shaped craft likely contains how many power sources?
