[ RadSafe ] Fission???

I am sorry if you don't trust me: I strive to be as truthful as I can when I am not making an obvious joke.
I know with certainty that there are "Unidentified Flying Objects", as all that is needed is for something flying to not be identified. I also happen to believe that the mounting evidence as our understanding of the universe increases supports the idea of life elsewhere in the universe, and quite reasonably in our galaxy. Sentience seems more problematic, given how long life existed on Earth before it popped up, but it clearly can happen. Although our understanding of physics at this moment seems to preclude travel between stars, I know that we don't know everything yet, and I admit to a hope, even expectation, that we will find a work-around to the speed of light limit.
I don't, however, believe in the Prime Directive, or any alien equivalent. I don't believe that alien visitors would be both as subtle and as clumsy as the stories require. I believe the almost completely uncritical acceptance of any "it must have been aliens" explanation for everything from the Great Pyramids to Wal-Mart decreases the credibility of those who look for aliens, and see them everywhere. I believe the ground-state explanation for technological breakthroughs is really clever people at play with adequate resources, and not back-engineered alien artifacts.
It is among my fondest desires that in my lifetime we will make contact with intelligent aliens, but my training is to be even more critical in my evaluation of the things I want to be true than the things I do not.

Admiral Brennan,
Some of this stuff is serious, some of it is not. You are a UFO skeptic and I understand that. You also were in the Nuclear Navy, No???? You clearly know things you can't talk about. I find many of your postings to be interesting. But I don't really trust you fundamentally.
My radiation career is separate from the UFO stuff. Believe what you will. Many of the observed UFO's are USA and other government test aircraft/spacecraft. Some UFO's can probably dead lift-off from a USA or other aircraft carrier. If a Harrier can do it, so can a UFO. The UFO over Arizona was clearly a flying wing of some sort --- you can see a German WWII
flying wing plane in the Air and Space Museum. Stealth USA flying jets and
bombers resemble flying wings also.
Be a skeptic. It is your right. I understand it totally.

Joe, if you mean to be humorous, throw an emoticon or two our way. If you are serious, I have to admit that citing Ancient Alien and UFO shows does not enhance your credibility (NOTE: I watch them sometimes, too, but not
because I think they are providing a sound evaluation of the "evidence").
In my household the phrase, "Even 'aliens did it' makes more sense than that" is the ultimate dismissive.

Hmmmmm,
Interesting. According to the UFO and Ancient Alien shows, there was
some attempt by the WWII Germans to create some sort of spacecraft base in
Antarctica. Then I also hear stories of some raid by the Allies on this
Spacecraft Base.

Dear Radsafe:
Ancient Alien and UFO shows describe a crash of a spaceship in the
Black Forest (Germany) in 1936.
The Germans are said to have collected the crash debris (and bodies???)
and then proceeded to reverse engineer what they found in the parts of
the spaceship.
Such reverse engineering may??? have yielded:
an advanced propulsion system
blocks/pieces of enriched Uranium and/or Plutonium
the fact that fission does occur????
Interestingly enough, Hahn and Strassmann (and Meitner) discovered
fission in 1938 in Germany.
Were they involved in the German reverse engineering effort????
Have a good week...
Regards, Joe Preisig
