I'd seriously like to know,
If the shuttle, travelling at 18,000 miles per minute, emitted a beam of light energy at the highest end of the spectrum, would it or would it not travel at (speed of light + 18,000 miles per minute)?

" But what makes you so sure about faster than light speed capability being impossible. What are you basing that opinion on? Where's your evidence to provide such certainty?"

Ummm..Little Hawk, old boy..do you READ my posts in detail? Or do you just skim them, note a few lines, remember that I am likely to not be a 'believer' and POUNCE? I said nothing about being sure of impossibility!
   My exact quote was "...and I will withhold opinion on FTL drives."
Meaning, I don't see any scientists explaining HOW FTL might happen.

My earlier quote was ""FTL drives" and "wormholes" are great fun for Sci-fi, but like all notions of interstellar travel, the power sources are just as vague."

That is the way skeptics talk! And when you ask ME to provide 'evidence' of MY certainty, you have it backwards. I am very carefully uncertain! I am not making a claim..YOU are. I am **doubtful** of your claim that "aliens are here", and by implication, that FTL must exist.

Geez...I seem to spend as much time correcting the form of the argument as debating the points!

What didja think? LOL!

Yeah, sure, I understand your point. I also am uncertain about the FTL thing. I don't know if there is a FTL form of space travel, but I wonder if there might be. I also wonder if "speed" even has anything to do with it, as it may be a form of travel that would better be termed "instantaneous"...therefore speed would not apply.

Many interesting possibilities are out there, all of which remain merely hypothetical.

Scientists at present are still working their way through Einstein's statement that E=mc^2. This implies that "c" is a boundary limit because as speed approaches "c" for a particle with any mass, it's mass will increase. The amount of energy needed to accelerate it closer to C approaches infinity.

Yes. The question is, was Einstein's work the final word that we will ever hear on the matter?

When I look at the progress of science over the past 1,000 years or so, let alone the past 300, I would have to say....I doubt it.

I feel reasonably sure that Einstein's theories will presently be modified and changed by further theories. We cannot long rest on our laurels. There will always be further developments and surprises waiting.

Witten and Green are doing what they can to look deeper than Einstein's contribution on the relativeity of time and the qualities of energy and matter. Green is attempting to unify our understanding of mass and energy, wave and particle, dimensions and space with String Theory.

He is by far not the only way in quest of a Unified TOE (Theory of Everything).

LH, no-one is asserting EInstein is the "final" anything. It would be anti-scientific. WHat I said was that the issues he raises are still being worked through.

One of the kedge anchors on this whole process is that we are not very good, in the West, at erecting conceptual frameworks that break away from the habit-patterns of perception defined by the body's effort-band perceptions. We're used to Newtonian spacetime, because that is how our bodies perceive and survive, and it becomes a very hard habit to break. I think this is what makes relatavistic frames of reference, and quantum phenomena, so hard for most folks to wrap their wits around (including me).

"the shuttle, travelling at 18,000 miles per minute"

.........
"The shuttle must attain an eventual speed of 0.7*(orbital velocity) or roughly 4.5 km/sec. at a height of about 226 Km above the surface of the Earth.
After a two-minute burn, the SRBs (Solid Rocket Boosters) are discarded, and the remaining climb to 7.75 Km/sec at 250 Km is done by hand using the Shuttle engines"

7.75 km/sec x 60 sec/min x 1.6 km/ mile = 744 miles per minute

It's called 'Doppler Shift' - the frequency of the light is shifted. That's where the term 'Red Shift' of far away galaxies speeding away from us comes from.

I understand Doppler shift, and the speed of the shuttle was just a number pulled out of wherever. I just hadn't thought of the actions of light being relative to the actions of sound (with an object moving fater than the speed of sound). I guess if travel at faster than the speed of light were possible. An object would suddenly appear as it dropped below FTL. But would it be followed by a trail of it's image like the roar of a jet following seconds behind the jet travelling at Mach 2?

Cheif Chaos , your observation is very intuitive and full of excellent imagery of a jet's roar lagging behind yet physicists claim that the light from a speeding craft will stay below the speed of light to both the shuttle and a relative stationary observer.

Amos , I saw several turns by different debris/objects that all seem to have a small slice cut out of them. Notice how the camera makes them pulse with an optical illusion when they pan away.

Anyway the many ufo fakes on you tube are accented by a few very real phenomenon.

and they're in thye news again. It's 30 years after young Australian pilot Frederick Valentich disappeared while flying over Bass Strait (between the Australian mainland and Tasmania..)

30 years on: UFO mystery still vivid
Mark Russell; October 12, 2008, The Age

It was Victoria's very own X-File: a world-famous mystery that remains unsolved 30 years after a young pilot disappeared over Bass Strait. Steve Robey remembers it like it was yesterday. The now-retired air traffic controller was working the night shift at the Melbourne Flight Service Unit on Saturday, October 21, 1978, when the call came in at 7.06pm.

Pilot Frederick Valentich, flying from Moorabbin Airport to King Island to pick up some crayfish, reported that a strange aircraft was "playing a game with him" and he wanted to know if any military planes were in the area. Both men were puzzled as there was no known air traffic in the vicinity apart from the 20-year-old RAAF air training corp instructor's plane.

Mr Valentich reported that the unknown aircraft had four bright lights and had buzzed him a number of times at great speed. He told Mr Robey the object was orbiting on top of him and "it's got a green light and is sort of metallic, like it's all shiny on the outside".

Then it vanished.

Mr Valentich, who had had his pilot's licence for two years, said his plane's engines began rough idling and coughing when the object reappeared. He told Mr Robey he planned to continue flying to King Island. Then came the message that the object had suddenly reappeared above him. "That strange aircraft is hovering on top of me again … it is hovering and it's not an aircraft."

They were Mr Valentich's last words. A still unidentified metallic noise came over the radio during the next 17 seconds, then the transmission ended abruptly. Mr Valentich and his single-engine Cessna 182L were never seen again, despite an exhaustive seven-day land and sea search. A Department of Transport investigation concluded that the disappearance could not be explained.

Mr Robey, now 61, told The Sunday Age that Mr Valentich was obviously distressed. While not prepared to say he believed Mr Valentich had been abducted by aliens, Mr Robey said he still could not explain the incident.

Asked if he believed in UFOs, Mr Robey said: "Yes, I suppose I do, but not in the definition of spaceships and little green men. I mean, you've got to have an open mind about these things."

On the night Mr Valentich disappeared, there were hundreds of UFO sightings reported from Geelong, Frankston, Cape Otway and Brighton. Some people described the object as brilliantly lit, oblong in shape, and moving quickly. A woman at Queenscliff said she saw what appeared to be a ferris wheel spinning in the sky less than two hours after Mr Valentich's plane disappeared.

The Valentich case became world news and the pilot's family - father Guido, mother Alberta, brother Richard (12 at the time) and twin sisters Olivia and Lara (aged 4) - were thrust into a media frenzy.

Mr Robey, who befriended Guido, said the incident devastated the family.

"Losing your son in such strange, controversial circumstances was just unbelievable. Alberta pined for the loss of her son but Guido was the one who really wanted to find out what had happened to him," Mr Robey said. Mr Valentich snr, who died in 2000, joined the Victorian UFO Research Centre and never gave up hope that his son was alive and had been abducted by aliens. He conducted a vigil at Cape Otway every year on the anniversary of his disappearance and erected a memorial plaque there in 1998.

Ric Wilson, an aviation consultant with the Australian UFO Research Network, urged the State Government to conduct a new search for the Valentich plane off Cape Otway to try to solve the mystery.

Suppose a civilization discovered the technology of a craft capable of near relativistic speed. Suppose they did this 100 or 1000 million years ago. All they need do is park their craft near a black hole and allow time to race past them while they reamined in a slow orbit near a black hole horizon. They leave orbit after a year and ZOOM the rest of the universe is a million or more years into the future.

My point is...

The craft we see could be from an extreme antiquity while they seem quite futuristic to us.

"Coincidentally, in 2006, a UFO was sighted over Chicago's O'Hare International Airport. Unlike the Chinese authorities, the US Federal Aviation Administration declined to conduct an investigation into that incident and airport workers were ordered to refrain from speaking with the media.

According to The Chicago Tribune:

A flying saucerlike object hovered low over O'Hare International Airport for several minutes before bolting through thick clouds with such intense energy that it left an eerie hole in overcast skies, said some United Airlines employees who observed the phenomenon. Was it an alien spaceship? A weather balloon lost in the airspace over the world's second-busiest airport? A top-secret military craft? Or simply a reflection from lights that played a trick on the eyes?

… "To fly 7 million light years to O'Hare and then have to turn around and go home because your gate was occupied is simply unacceptable," said O'Hare controller and union official Craig Burzych.

Renowned astrophysicist Stephen Hawking suggested in April that it's likely aliens exist, given the vastness of the universe, and they're probably hostile.

"We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldn't want to meet. I imagine they might exist in massive ships, having used up all the resources from their home planet. Such advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads, looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they can reach," he said. "If aliens ever visit us, I think the outcome would be much as when Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn't turn out very well for the native Americans."

I've recounted this on the Mudcat before- I am still bemused by the experience.

In Dayton, Oregon (this would have been in the late 70s or early 80s, I no longer remember), one evening about 10 o'clock there was the roar of fast but low-flying jets overhead.

This was not totally unusual - the Air Force base at Tillamook on the Oregon Coast is not that far away by air, and fighter jets on occasion do training exercises. The unusual thing about this night was that I felt fear. Fear that did not appear to be coming from me but from outside. Enough fear that it made my knees weak.

The next paper (McMinnville's News Register) said that there had been unidentified flying objects in the sky and the jets were deployed to investigate.

I dunno.

Cortez did not decimate the Maya, it was the Aztec. They did not think he was a god, he merely stated it in his letter to the crown that they thus regarded him. There is no evidence that they did. In fact, Moctezuma II did not like him and sought to learn the weaknesses of the Spaniards and crush them. But the Spaniard's committed a massacre in Cortez's absence and now there was a rebellion. Cortez returned and tried to stop it by allying with Moctezuma who was promptly killed by his own people and Cortez and his party were chased out and many of them killed. The only thing that saved him was getting reinforcements from Cuba whereupon he choked off supply lines to the Aztec and eventually destroyed their empire.

So this whole line of reasoning about how so-called aliens regard us is BS.

U.S. Nuclear Weapons Have Been Compromised by Unidentified Aerial Objects
PR Newswire

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15

Ex-military men say unknown intruders have monitored and even tampered with American nuclear missiles

Group to call on U.S. Government to reveal the facts

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Witness testimony from more than 120 former or retired military personnel points to an ongoing and alarming intervention by unidentified aerial objects at nuclear weapons sites, as recently as 2003. In some cases, several nuclear missiles simultaneously and inexplicably malfunctioned while a disc-shaped object silently hovered nearby. Six former U.S. Air Force officers and one former enlisted man will break their silence about these events at the National Press Club and urge the government to publicly confirm their reality.

One of them, ICBM launch officer Captain Robert Salas, was on duty during one missile disruption incident at Malmstrom Air Force Base and was ordered to never discuss it. Another participant, retired Col. Charles Halt, observed a disc-shaped object directing beams of light down into the RAF Bentwaters airbase in England and heard on the radio that they landed in the nuclear weapons storage area. Both men will provide stunning details about these events, and reveal how the U.S. military responded.

Captain Salas notes, "The U.S. Air Force is lying about the national security implications of unidentified aerial objects at nuclear bases and we can prove it." Col. Halt adds, "I believe that the security services of both the United States and the United Kingdom have attemptedÑboth then and nowÑto subvert the significance of what occurred at RAF Bentwaters by the use of well-practiced methods of disinformation."

The group of witnesses and a leading researcher, who has brought them together for the first time, will discuss the national security implications of these and other alarmingly similar incidents and will urge the government to reveal all information about them. This is a public-awareness issue.

Declassified U.S. government documents, to be distributed at the event, now substantiate the reality of UFO activity at nuclear weapons sites extending back to 1948. The press conference will also address present-day concerns about the abuse of government secrecy as well as the ongoing threat of nuclear weapons.

I suppose that messing with nuclear weapons is a slightly more plausible activity for aliens than anally probing inhabitants of the American Mid-West.

But, to change, the drift of this posting a bit. All speculation on aliens seems to assume that there is just one species of alien 'out there'. Given the sheer scale of the galaxy (not to mention the wider universe) there could be millions of different species - all with different dispositions and motivations (which, I suppose, could include a desire to mess with nuclear weapons or even to anally probe inhabitants of the American Mid-West). Some might be benign and some might be extremely aggressive and war-like. I would guess, though, that most would find interstellar travel extremely difficult (it might actually turn out to be impossible). There might not be many nearby species with interstellar travel capabilities at this particular stage of galactic evolution. We had better hope that, if they exist, our local spacefarers are of the benign variety.

One recent hypothesis is that once a species discovers radio it is on the road to creating artificial intelligence - and once it does so the artificial 'species' replaces the biological one. These super-intelligent, self-reproducing, immortal 'robots' then head off for an energy rich area of the universe like the centre of a galaxy and pass beyond the ken of mere biological intelligence.

I'm watching a YouTube presentation at the National Press Club from November 12, 2007, where I think the event took place. It is moderated by Fife Symington a familiar family name in American politics. Symington mentioned each attendee had a copy of a letter - signed by all of the speakers- requesting that the investigation into UFOs be re-opened.

The first man, Wilfred de Browier, recounted his experience in Belgium where for more than a year UFOs were frequently sighted. He held up a clear enhanced photo of one of them- it was triangular, rather than saucer or cigar shaped.

Parviz Jafari, retired general of the Iranian Air Force also spoke. He was squadron commander at the time in 1978 when a UFO was seen above Tehran. The first pilot sent up returned when his communications failed. Then Jafari was sent up. The object looked like a star but bigger and brighter. Four objects, differently shaped from the first one, separated from the main one. Once when one came at him, he thought it was a missile, and tried to activate his (waponry, I think) but his equipment failed. Sometimes the light was so bright he couldn't make out the body. The lights were red, green, orange and blue, as bright as strobe lights. Whenever they came too close his communications systems were garbled. One followed him down when he descended. This went on for a couple of days in several parts of Iran. One landed and the lights were so big and bright they could see the sand beneath the object.

I'm bookmarking this website and will listen to all of them later.

I agree, Amos. The conference in 2007 is, I think, what this article refers to as "120 credible witnesses' telling their stories. This particular conference has a subset aim: UFOs that appear to target military facilities.

I think it - the surveillance - may be heartening. It may develop that there are beings that are vested in seeing to it that we don't destroy each other.

There is also the possibility that these same beings will impose their own order on Earth- which may or may not be benign.
