Still I would be willing to bet there are whole departments in government to specifically debunk when info leaks they go into action. If an top secret plane photo appears online a toy plane like it may appear I would expect this kind of covering up.
Their record of controlling leaks isn't the greatest.
You give them waaay too much credit. Maybe back in the Cold War days, but not now.
I think allowing CT'ers to speculate is the best and most cost effective form of obfuscation.

That man had ZERO signs or symptoms of dementia or Alzheimer's. And yes, I'm totally qualified to make that assessment.
Normal signs of aging when recalling certain memories? Yes. That's normal and you, or anyone for that matter, should be so lucky to have a mind like that when you're almost 80 years old.
Unless you know what your talking about, don't just offer up a terrible and life stealing disease to debunk a thread on ATS. It's very disheartening and insensitive to those who actually have a loved one with either, just FYI.
ahh...missed your post. I would be interested in hearing more about how you ruled that out. I mean that because I have no idea
All my years working in health care, caring for people with both Alzheimer's and dementia, makes me pretty well qualified to rule it out in this situation...
People with dementia or Alzheimer's couldn't put together a video and presentation like Bushman did in the OP.
Not even with a lot of coaching and cue cards...

This thing arrived from it's own planet in 45 minutes. That's a red flag from the off.
Lol I feel sorry for people who think like this, someday you are going to be shocked.
I am already shocked.
Shocked that people actually believe this rubbish.
If it weren't for a guy called Galileo Galilei, you would still believe that our planet is flat and that the Sun revolves around the Earth! ROFL So, who's simplistic and ignorant here?
I bet you would be shocked about it too...

Assuming that the alien had not died recently and rigor mortis had yet to set in, the eyes could still open and shut while people are moving the head around.
Forget the eyes.
A body such as that would be crushed in Earths atmosphere. Probably implode on itself.

There are some differences but also enough similarity to not just solely assume its a coincidence.
I still think its more reasonable to believe that someone took an alien prop and modified it a bit than that being an actual Alien.
Then you would have to assume that either this esteemed scientist is stupid or a liar correct?

I would have to first assume that he's an esteemed scientist.
Why the unqualified source accessed through the "wayback machine"?
Just added that because someone asked for it. I thought we had all agreed he is who he says he is.

Esteemed scientist.. mm. I fail to find any publications other than patents, so "scientist" is not the proper definition in my book.
If this is Boyd B. Bushman - an engineer that worked for Lockheed / Lockheed Martin, he has a number of patents on his name. However, that's nothing special either: many engineers that work for a large corporation have patents on their name, even for very elementary and simple things. Large corporations don't mind paying for the registration process even for trivial patents: they then can have others pay them license fees even if they never even make a product themselves.
I just browsed through a few of his patents and they aren't really impressive. Good stuff, proper engineering stuff, but not really ground-breaking. He had imagination and creativity and was a fine engineer. But surely not a 'scientist'. And absolutely not an "esteemed scientist".
He received a Bachelor of Science degree from Brigham Young University- majoring in both math and physics. Boyd also earned an MBA from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.
Bushman's career spanned over forty years and included work with defense contractors Hughes Aircraft, General Dynamics, Texas Instruments, and Lockheed Martin. Some of his accomplishments included being on the development team of the Stinger Missile, the F16 Fighter, as well as many other advanced weapons and propulsion systems. At the time of his retirement in 2000, Bushman had 28 patents in his name, many of which contained classified technologies.

We agree on his identity, place of employment, and that his name is on some patents, the only things that can be corroborated by an independent, objective source [U.S. Patent Office]. Your and others' characterization of him as an "esteemed scientist" and his own claimed credentials have yet to be established in the same way. He wouldn't be the first hyped former "scientist" employee of a defense contractor to be paraded around the UFOsphere.

Newton considered himself to be one of a select group of individuals who were specially chosen by God for the task of understanding Biblical scripture.[18] He was a strong believer in prophetic interpretation of the Bible, and like many of his contemporaries in Protestant England, he developed a strong affinity and deep admiration for the teachings and works of Joseph Mede. Though he never wrote a cohesive body of work on prophecy, Newton's belief led him to write several treatises on the subject, including an unpublished guide for prophetic interpretation entitled Rules for interpreting the words & language in Scripture. In this manuscript he details the necessary requirements for what he considered to be the proper interpretation of the Bible.
In addition, Newton would spend much of his life seeking and revealing what could be considered a Bible Code. He placed a great deal of emphasis upon the interpretation of the Book of Revelation, writing generously upon this book and authoring several manuscripts detailing his interpretations. Unlike a prophet in the true sense of the word, Newton relied upon existing Scripture to prophesy for him, believing his interpretations would set the record straight in the face of what he considered to be "so little understood".[19] In 1754, 27 years after his death, Isaac Newton's treatise, An Historical Account of Two Notable Corruptions of Scripture would be published, and though it does not argue any prophetic meaning, it does exemplify what Newton considered to be just one popular misunderstanding of Scripture.
Although Newton's approach to these studies could not be considered a scientific approach, he did write as if his findings were the result of evidence-based research.
