Tom DeLonge launched To the Stars in 2017 with respected scientists, engineers, and researchers. Logically, many questions arise: Who are flying these objects? Where do they come from? Why are they here? Instead of chasing endless guesses, AATIP sought to answer one question: Are they a threat? In short, no, they do not appear to be a threat. All of this information yields credence to the idea that “We may not be alone,” as Luis Elizondo, former director of AATIP, stated during a December 2017 interview with CNN. AATIP collected and analyzed electro-optical data, radar returns, signature reduction, thrust vectoring, and many other types of data. All of these phrases describe something that cannot accurately be explained but is real nonetheless.įrom 2007 to 2012, the Pentagon operated the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program (AATIP) for gathering quantifiable information about these exotic flying machines to assess the possibility of a threat. Many people have heard the terminology: unidentified aerial phenomenon, advanced aviation vehicles, flying saucers, etc. There exists a worldwide occurrence that defies our understanding and appears as seemingly magically as it disappears. Science, Aerospace, Entertainment, Analysis My curiosity about this topic led me to talk with one such individual, and after our conversation, well, I don’t think we should be laughing. But there are serious people in serious organizations willing to investigate the unexplainable rather than explaining what remains largely uninvestigated. This includes anything from a luminous orb to a flying disc, and any serious inquiry of the matter could get you ostracized from intellectual circles. So what technologies from the future would appear magical to us today? More specifically, what are we observing today that seems magical, unexplainable, or elusive?įor decades, many people around the world have reported seeing unexplained aerial phenomena. The ideas of Democritus and Dalton paved the way for futuristic technologies like plastic polymers and DNA tests. For example, bats are not blind, deoxygenated blood is not blue, nor do humans use only 10 percent of their brains. What’s more, there are things once thought to be true that are now known to be false thanks to scientific advancements. That’s because we did not know then what we do now. IBM’s film would have seemed magical to Democritus, but even if it were shown only 30 years ago, surely many would deem it a hoax. Technology of this magnitude came from efforts in many scientific fields. While it didn’t win any Oscars, the 2013 video does hold the Guinness World Record for the smallest stop-motion film. The atom first appears as a ball and interacts with the boy in various forms. The one-and-a-half-minute video features animated carbon monoxide molecules taking the shape of a stick figure boy who befriends an atom. Today, thanks to the imaginative researchers at IBM, not only can we see atoms, but we can watch them perform in a short film available online, A Boy and His Atom. But still, it would be more than another century before anyone actually saw an atom through a microscope. Then in the early 19th century, English scientist John Dalton greatly improved the atomic model, ushering the relationship between matter and energy into the discipline and tying it to chemistry. By the 17th century and the time of Isaac Newton, atomism was largely accepted in the Western scientific community as fact. Around 400 BCE he used the term ?τοµος (atomos), meaning “indivisible,” to describe the smallest element of matter. While most scientists have not seen an actual atom, there is an overwhelming body of evidence suggesting our basic understandings of atoms and subatomic particles are correct.ĭemocritus, the Socrates-era Greek philosopher-scientist, is credited as the first to introduce an atomic model of the universe. “I don’t believe in atoms,” said no physicist ever, because it is a fact that atoms exist.
