UFO's- Please help me process

@tizman,
How many times do we need to point out that an ‘incomplete understanding of physics’ (whatever that means) does not preclude scientists from making a considered statement that alien visitations are highly, highly improbable.

Oh, that new breakthrough is just right around the corner! Your pseudoskepticism blinds you to the fact that yadda yadda.....

Further, if your assertion is correct, ie scientists are in no position to postulate on anything, since their knowledge is incomplete, where does that leave all the progress made over the last 300 years?

I already let the cat out of the bag! Engineers are really wizards. All that "science" is just a front for the sheeple.

Further, in what way are you qualified to make such a statement? Are you a physicist? An astrobiologist? A planetary scientist? A mathematician? These are the people who have weighed in on the alien question but you presume to discard their considered opinion with a ‘well you can’t explain gravity so your opinion does not count’.

Tide comes in, tide goes out. Nobody can explain that.
 
Round and round it goes... meanwhile many top rich people are buying tickets to get a glimpse of space, that's plain stupid and should be illegal, all that fuel for lift off , cant even imagine how many tons co2 they will be emmitting just for their personal fun.

In the grand scheme, it’s not much and they could buy offsetting credits with the spend level involved. What is interesting is that the privatization of space will lead to more investment, more adventure etc. It is the way in which humans will harness their competitive nature develop new technology and sort out how best to prioritize their capital as we become a space faring species.

(Two tides per day is a classic physics question, easy to answer if you know the answer)

"I'm curious as to what degree the recent UAP upsurge may serve as publicity for the benefit of "commercial space flight."

Now that sounds like a conspiracy theory to me. :whazzat::shutup::$:
Then you can ignore it. My curiosity is not diminished by your superficial response.

I'm also curious as to the benefits the classified weapons industry may or may not derive from the government's handling of "the UFO phenomenon."

BTW, the part you didn't quote was context important to the part you did quote.

I'm being sarcastic. I'm on your team.

Everything in the US is about money.
 
What I wanna know is since the ocean is exerting the same counteractive force as the Earth against the gravitational pull of the Moon and Sun, why should there even be a rising tide? Makes no sense whatsoever! 😡
Does my weight change with the tide? Can I jump higher with a rising tide? Would my squirt gun shoot higher?? Sheesh.
 
Yup. Not many of us know the "truth."

And now we've driven the final nail in the coffin! Gravity is fake.
There are different levels of understanding on physics. We have far higher level of understanding on air pressure, to a point of manipulating it (to make 640 tonnes of cargo airborne for hours and land in one piece) than gravity. Big difference between that and levitating a frog in an isolated setting for a few seconds.

That's true to a certain extent, but isn't the reality that we know enough of both to calculate the forces of both air pressure and gravity, and ensure the former is greater than the latter?

The irony of the matter is that there would be no air pressure in the atmosphere without gravity. In fact, there would be no atmosphere.

So we're really right back to square one. We don't know anything about air pressure. 😱 ZING!

That's the reality as the plane I linked flies and lands in one piece. What's your point?

If you stated, that plane can fly and land fully loaded by manipulating gravity without wings (air pressure manipulation), then you may have an important point.
