Contact: Learning from Outer Space, Psychological and socio-cultural assumptions and preconceptions constrain us to a large extent, and shape our views of the universe so that we are inclined to find what we are looking for, and fail to see what we are not. Using knowledge gained from research in the fields of Ufology and the search for extraterrestrial life, what might we possibly learn about hindrances to innovation in other areas of inquiry?

Today , I want you to open your mind, open your mind to the possibility that one day we make contact with an intelligent civilization in outer space that could be thousands, millions of years ahead of us in technology
Let me make a prediction, and that is sometime by mid century we might make contact with an intelligent civilization in outer space.

over the last 43 years I given more than seven hundred presentations of an illustrated lecture of flying saucers are real.
I can give you my conclusions; the first one is that the evidence is overwhelming that planet earth is being visited by intelligent controlled Extraterrestrial spacecraft.

professor kaku wrote a book on the physics of the impossible that has been really an inspiration to me and I think the UFO phenomenon gives us examples of some things that today are impossible in physics but might be possible in the next few years or decades.
For a civilization to rank as Type-I, it has to be capable of harnessing the entire power of a planet, and dominate its processes, including its weather, geothermal energy, etc. It should be able to construct facilities anywhere it wants to on the planet.
For a civilization to rank as Type-II, it has to be capable of harnessing the power of its local star, and subsidiary planets.
For a civilization to rank as Type-III, it has to become inter-stellar/multi-stellar, capable of expanding across multiple star systems, and eventually the entire galaxy.

JOHN LEAR - HUMAN MUTILATION FROM ALIENS UFO
I tend to think that at a certain point, civilizations no longer feel the need to physically travel in cold, old space to get their exploration thrills, and they start to fold in on themselves. They focus their energies and efforts into exploring what's in their consciousnesses and imaginations, which as we all know is generally much more interesting and exciting than boring reality, which is bound by all kinds of silly laws and limits. Virtuality takes over for actuality.
Should the Martians have colonized the moon without discovering nuclear energy, then they represent no real problem, and our current national policy would be made to order for the situation.
I believe that it is possible with what we now know about nuclear energy to envision ships driven at half to three-quarters of the speed of light. This, since the galaxy is 100,000 light-years across, still does not make a search of the entire galaxy feasible within the life span of the average man. But suppose some race under pressure of population explosion were expanding as fast as technically feasible from star to star throughout the galaxy. If their ships averaged half the speed of light, and if, on the average, they stopped every 10 light-years for a twenty-year stay at a stellar system to deposit colonists, refuel, and build extra ships, they would only take two hundred thousand years, starting at the center of the galaxy, to spread throughout the whole system.
The third possibility, scientifically abhorrent, is that the Einstein theory may only be an approximation, and an alien race which actually travels faster than light exists. If we were to meet such a race, our policy had better be to negotiate fast, because the implications of their far better understanding and control of the fundamental forces of nature would be obvious.
Even if we only found tame chemical Martians, or merely the debris from some intragalactic survey mission, it would be a good idea to proceed on the assumption that the human race would finally have found a bigger problem than the ones it has created for itself. There likely is nothing to be done at the moment to prepare for these possibilities (the only body of writing on the subject available in an emergency is science fiction), because no one of consequence is going to take this rubbish seriously unless it happens. At that point, our policy will be determined in the traditional manner of grand panic.

According to Corso, they determined that the craft was a biological spaceship, functioning in conjunction with a crew of EBE’s (Extraterrestrial Biological Entities). They were biological robots created through advanced genetic engineering, clones designed to withstand the extreme conditions of space travel. These EBE’s were able to drive their starship through a particular neural interface, whereby they could connect with the craft, becoming an almost integrated part of it.

So whether that is a Type-III or Type-IV, past that point, we aren't going to be seeing or hearing from these civilizations, because they no longer interact with our brand of reality.
I personally think also that some if not many of those civilizations do not need to physically travel anymore, but that counts in my opinion only for those extremely advanced civilizations.
Are UFOs/UAPs crafts belonging to a civilization or civilizations which Michio Kaku named Type-III?

His summary shows that although he thought talk of saucers was likely 'rubbish,' it was in the interests of US foreign policy to plan ahead...
He beat Kaku by almost 50 years!
SUBJECT; Thoughts on the Space Alien Race Question
The flying saucer advocates claim, of course, that the scientific viewpoint is nonsense, and that there is overwhelming evidence of such beings.
In my own mind, I find it difficult to side with the flying saucer advocates, but the almost total impossibility envisioned by most scientists also is disturbing.

I think I understand what you are saying here.

They can control these part biological robots with their mind so to speak without physically being in this reality or position in Space. Am I close?

on another note , as far as disclosure goes and the numerous post i have read recently regarding an impending full disclosure i have a thought. i was watching a documentry about the first private company's attempt to send a man into space. i think it was an american company called scaled composites but anyways it acieved this goal in 2001/2004??? and it got me thinking that if goverments could no longer control who could and couldn't go into space then maby time for disclosure would happen soon as we would find out the truth sooner or later when civillians start flying into space.

No. We are only a Type-0 civilization, and we could build anti-gravity saucer ships - if we tried. But first we have to shake our addiction to rockets.

Hi little_green_man, thanks for your reply.
I do personally not expect disclosure very soon and it are no doubt already exciting times in my opinion.
Regarding that you hope these civilizations are all friendly; here is how I think about that.
On one hand, I get the strong impression that not all of our visitors are so friendly, because look for instance to this thread of Kandinsky.
Hostile UFO Encounters: Colares, 1977
www.abovetopsecret.com...
And there are more examples of unfriendly behavior, listen for instance what John Lear said about it.

But on the other hand, I am absolutely convinced that most of them are definitely benevolent to us for some reason.
And it seems pretty clear to me that the ones that are benevolent to us are in the majority and/or far out the most powerful, because otherwise we did not have come as far as we are now.
