Another incredibly comprehensive read, Leon. The UFO thing is so interesting and Jason’s unquie experience with this phenomena is even more so.

Thanks for the read Michael! Just love sharing interesting tidbits that satiate my curiosity!

With the platypus as your symbol, aree you from Australia?

You nailed it Leon, I’m from Australia.

And just incase your feeling inclined, this is a piece I wrote, which at least partly covers why I picked the platypus as my symbol -

I lived in Kofu, Yamanashi for a few years, and the people there told me of a UFO sighting there in 1975. It is on Wikipedia, but only in Japanese: https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%94%B2%E5%BA%9C%E4%BA%8B%E4%BB%B6

Love this content. I post about niche alien content in my substack Out of this World, if this topic interests you ☺️

During the Second World War, the British Air Ministry claimed that the success of British pilots in the air war against Germany was because their pilots were eating carrots to give them exceptional night vision. However, while it is true that carrots are rich in vitamin A (which helps the eye convert light into a signal that is sent to the brain, helping to make us see in the dark), the claim was just propaganda, a misdirection to conceal the truth: the British had invented radar!

It’s a similar story with UFOs and aliens. While it may be true that ET UFOs and beings may have visited Earth and may be living among us, the vast majority of UFOs are in fact secretly man-made.

The Germans/Prussians were working on flying-saucer technology at least as far back as the nineteenth century. Have a look at the Sonora Aero Club in California and the work of Charles Dellschau, eg:

By the end of the Second World War, the NAZIs had almost perfected the flying saucer with their “Bell” (“Glocke”) project, based in Lower Silesia, Poland. It employed plasma technology generated by counter-rotating drums of red mercury at high speed, charged with high-voltage electricity:

After the war, the German NAZI Paperclip scientists continued the work in America. By October, 1956, they had perfected anti-gravity and anti-gravity propulsion. However, it seems fairly clear from Operation Highjump (1946-47), from Roswell (1947) and the 1952 Washington DC UFO incident that the German NAZI scientists who escaped to Argentina at the end of the war succeeded before the Americans.

The triangular-shaped UFO reported by former First Lady Hatoyama Miyuki was probably a Lockheed-Martin TR3B Aurora. These craft have been in service since the 1980s:

It is also worth mentioning that the man-made “UFOs” of today are probably based on ancient technology from earlier civilizations on Earth, technology which has been preserved over the millennia by various secret societies, eg, the vimana craft described in ancient Hindu texts and Sanskrit epics.

If there is a “UFO cluster” around Fukushima, then it is more than likely because the Americans have a “UFO” base underground or undersea in the area. Unlikely? Maybe not:

Thanks for the thorough background. It lays a very compelling case that the UFO’s seen around Japan are US air ships

Given the extraordinary account (perfected the flying saucer, employing plasma technology, really?) I'd have to go with giving credit to Wikipedia's report of Die Glocke as a conspiracy theory/ hoax, as well as with the understanding that Dellschau was an artist, not an engineer.

However, as I understand it, UFOs in the US do have something to do with governmental conspiracy, though it was not to "silence evidence" but quite the contrary, to promote it. Or, more exactly, to obfuscate it. The military were developing a new aircraft technology that they wanted to keep secret. You cannot really fly things without anyone seeing it (even if there's a base somewhere in the dessert, there's likely some kind of population in the vicinity), so government agents fabricated and fomented the notion of there being UFO sightings which the government hides... thereby creating dubious stories and thus discrediting future account/ reports of real sighting of their aircraft.
