It is estimated that there are 2 trillion...that 2 followed by 12 zeros or 2,000,000,000,000 galaxies in the known observable universe. The average galaxy has 100 billion stars and super massive galaxies may have up to 1 trillion stars. In the Milky Way galaxy alone there is approximately up to 1 trillion planets. Multiply 1 trillion planets times 2 trillion galaxies and you get 2 septillion planets in the known observable universe or 2 followed by 24 zeros. I said all of that to say this. To think that humanity is the only "intelligent" and sentient lifeforms in the known universe is extremely short-sided and monumentally arrogant. These numbers are also based on the known observable universe. It has been conservatively estimated that the entire universe (if infinite) is 160 sextillion times larger than the known observable universe. If the universe is finite than it is estimated to be 250 times larger. Known observable universe means all that we with our current technology can currently see from earth.

About UFOs: Investigating the Unknown

Suara drakor

— @lanangparwita1926

In 2021, the US government passed legislation mandating an official investigation into UFOs. This provocative series unspools the history leading up to this momentous change and reports on recent developments. It explores what the government made public versus what was kept hidden; citizens' push for transparency while confronting mass UFO sightings; Navy pilots' reports of unexplainable technology; new cutting-edge scientific efforts; and what the future might hold for this confounding mystery which is the focus of a deepening and expanding search for answers.

Secret Pentagon Program (Full Episode) | UFOs: Investigating the Unknown

I used to be an avid water of the space station. Some years ago I was watching and at the curvature of the Earth you could see red, green and blue lights on an object that looked like saucer shaped. Within seconds the camera shut down and a statement said that the camera has over heated.????

Did anyone think to speak with the star trek crew, or at least the officers. With their background, if anyone could help it would probably be them.

@davidluce495

Explain the video where they fire a rocket at one and it bounced off the object and keeped going that’s one is crazy in its self people need wake up.

If this is true ... We need something better than Nat Geo with dramatic music background.... The biggest story of humankind delivered for the lowest possible common denominator?

If we were on 1903. For sure, Neil degrasse Tyson would be criticizing the wright brother for attempting to fly with anything heavier than air.

Why are there different shapes of craft? Unique platforms from the same alien species? Or... crafts that are unique but to different species?

@steveking7719

It's easy to Scoff at the possibility of extraterrestrial Craft (and life), Untill you See something in the sky (day or night) that can Not be explained using any known flight characteristics. While I'm a Skeptic by nature, and having seen something I can't explain, I've taken a more open view of the subject of Extraterrestrial
visitations. When a NATO Members Defense Secretary makes the statement " If You See A UFO, the odds are 50/50 that it's ours, or theirs" Theirs meaning Extraterrestrial, is when I actually Started believing We Are Not Alone in the Universe......... 🤔 👍

I have been experienced two times the radiated being on me to look after me at the time of my childhood and at 2019-20 . I have a blurry memory about it but whenever I watch a video about aliens and unnatural beings I get De ja vu's .

@श्रीसीक्षाअनुसार

Luis Elizondo says the UFO reports are of real objects. Does it not follow that the U.S. Government has a wealth of written reports and photographic and movie evidence that the public should have the right to scrutinize? Such evidence must be massive in scope, going back to gun camera photography, taken during World War Two and beyond all the way up to the present day.

@gooberclown
@

Neil Tyson forgot fundamental of scientific investigation, that is, always respect the observation and the observer and the explanation even the most weird one, should be considered seriously, if the observation is the unexpected one. Laughing off all the the time is unacceptable.

If they are able to carry out this kind of technology, if they are able to visit other planets and if they are smart to do all this, they would be smart enough to avoid today USA coz as "immigrants" they woud be questioned, arrested or even shot by ICE - looks like UFO-periods are go now.......sorry for your country, lucky UFO-pilots

@H.ArminGilsdorf

I noticed that in the old footage of ufo the objects look like old technology but in the new ones are look more advanced. So they keep involved there technology like us?

In the late 90s me and a girlfriend at the time were up north on the northern shores of Georgian Bay off the Bruce Peninsula in Ontario and we watched 3--4 lights fly around like they were playing with each other for a good 2 1/2 - 3 hours straight. Just zooming back and forth randomly...they were up really high, higher than the atmosphere but it was crazy watching that until 2-3 in the morning.

It won't matter until the majority of humans understand that cooperation is better for the species than bolstering your own position. Everything in nature is competing for resources. Until we get past that, we're no better than clever animals.

@Toohiferthis
@

Unlikely due to the lack of evidence. Exactly why I don't support religious beliefs. I believe in data and evidence in order to
be sufficiently convinced. I have watched this doc several times because I am one of a large group of humans
who has had a close proximity encounter, and I am able to speak on the subject with conviction. Thank you for producing this episode NG.

The US people are ahead on this subject. In Europe disclosure may come as ontological shock.

@tweakradje
@

I have to wonder if the reason the US is so adamant about suppressing UFOs is because of fear. They are so arrogant about their knowledge that something they can't comprehend terrifies them. It may just shatter their little bubble. If you don't talk about it then it doesn't exist.

✔️ $22 million is HUGE money

For normal investigations, even FBI-level ones, budgets are far lower.
Spending $22M without clear results sounds suspicious.



✔️ Most of the money went to a senator’s friend

Senator Harry Reid pushed the funding.
A big chunk went to Robert Bigelow — his friend and campaign donor.

That alone screams:

“Government money → friend’s company → little output”

That pattern is classic government grift or “soft corruption.”



✔️ Almost nothing useful came out

No confirmed alien technology.
No major scientific breakthrough.
No hard evidence released.

When you spend $22M and get almost nothing, it looks like a money funnel, not research.



✔️ Too many “mystical” and “paranormal” studies

Some of the money reportedly went to studying things like:
• “interdimensional physics”
• “warp drives”
• “biological effects from close encounters”

This is not normal scientific spending.
It feels like pseudoscience subsidized by taxpayer money.



✔️ The secrecy makes it worse

When a project is dark, unverified, and limited to a few people,
it is easy for money to be spent irresponsibly without oversight.



🧠 So… was it a scam?

Let’s be precise:

Not an illegal scam

The program was officially authorized, and the spending was technically legal.

But…

Was it a wasteful, political, insider-funded, almost-zero-output government money pit?

YES.
Absolutely reasonable to call it that.

Most experts, skeptics, journalists, even scientists agree that:

“The value delivered did not match the price tag.”



💬 My honest take?

If you told me:

“Hey Adam, do you think the government wasted this money?”

I’d say 100% yes.

If you told me:

“Do you think it’s closer to a political favor than real science?”

I’d say absolutely yes.

You’re not being paranoid — you’re being realistic.
This looks like:

✔️ political connections
✔️ questionable science
✔️ big contract to a friend
✔️ minimal results

…which is basically the definition of a government rip-off without being illegal.
