Hello and welcome to the program UFO Warning.
In this episode we're talking about the crypto terrestrial
hypothesis. That's correct, the crypto
terrestrial hypothesis. Now if you haven't heard of
this, that's fine because we're early on the bandwagon as this
is just a hypothesis right now and not even a theory.
Now this comes out of Harvard predominantly if you go to
theresearchgate.net publication and I will have a link over at
the Kofi site. Thanks to all the people that
support there. It does really help.
It looks like the authors of this are a Tim Lomas from
Harvard University, a Brendan Case from Harvard University,
and a Michael Paul Masters from Montana Tech of the University
of Montana. It says June 2024 Philosophy and
Cosmology 33 The crypto terrestrial hypothesis a case
for scientific openness to a concealed earthly explanation
for unidentified anomalous phenomena.
Well, I would have given them a dollar if they would have just
called them UFOs in the abstract of this paper says.
Recent years have seen increasing public attention and
indeed concern regarding unidentified anomalous
phenomena. Uap hypothesis for such
phenomena tend to fall into two classes, a conventional
terrestrial explanation, EG human made technology, or an
extraterrestrial explanation, IE advanced civilization from
elsewhere in the cosmos. However, there's also a third
minority class of hypothesis and unconventional terrestrial
explanation outside the prevailing consensus view of the
universe. This is the ultraterrestrial
hypothesis, which includes as a subset the crypto terrestrial
hypothesis, namely the notion that UAP may reflect the
activities of intelligent beings concealed in stealth here on
Earth, EG underground or it's near environs, EG the moon and
or even walking among us, quote UN quote, passing as human.
Although this idea is likely to be regarded skeptically by most
scientists, such are the nature of some UAP that we argue this
possibility should not be similarly dismissed and instead
deserves genuine consideration and a spirit of epistemic
humility and openness. Well that's interesting.
But they completely forgot the 4th theory that these things are
interdimensional, as in maybe possibly what we even call
spiritual beings. That's OK though.
And it has a public texture that you can go to, it looks like and
look very interesting, has a title, fairly long paper.
I won't read through the entire paper.
Then if you look down a little further, it has the actual study
written here. We can look at some of the
highlights. It says their crypto terrestrial
hypothesis, the case for scientific openness to a
concealed earthly explanation for unidentified anonymous
phenomena. Then it has the folks that wrote
it. It begins by saying it talks.
It gives the introduction that we just read there.
Then, it says, this paper explores a hypothesis concerning
unidentified anomalous phenomena and follows another by the same
first author focusing on a related hypothesis recently
published in the Journal of Transpersonal Psychology.
Essentially, the discourse around UAP is dominated by two
main classes of explanation, the conventional terrestrial origin
or extraterrestrial origin. It goes on here.
Then it finally says one is an interdimensional hypothesis,
which was the focus of the previous paper.
This suggests UAP may involve beings from dimensions that
coexist alongside the four dimensions of space-time, as we
usually perceive and or that UAP occupants are extra Tempest
real, traveling through the 4th dimension to visit different
people of Earth's history, which may involve our descendants
returning to study their own the hominem evolutionary past.
In writing that paper, though, the author became increasingly
aware of the depth of evidence and theory that also attentively
supports another ultra terrestrial explanation, the
crypto terrestrial hypothesis. Our focus here which holds that
UAP may reflect activities of NHI, it's non human intelligence
concealed here on Earth, and it's envrons.
Indeed, the philosopher Bernardo Castro recently argued that a
version of Cth was, despite its seemingly outlandish, unlikely
and far out nature, the most reasonable superior scenario for
UAP and NHI. As such, a paper which explored
the Cth in depth seemed a logical step and furthermore a
useful counterpart to the interdimensional paper.
Here's the part of my have of this as much I appreciate these
guys taking the time right at this paper, as they said, they
started out with this notion that these things are
interdimensional. Well, you can't get very far
into the conversation about interdimensional UFOs before
somebody brings up the subject of demons and angels.
And if you've got demons and angels, you've probably got God
in there somewhere. Now, there is a rich tradition
among, I think pretty much all religions of the earth, at least
all the old religions, especially what they call, I
suppose, what the Muslims call the, the religions of the book,
the Old Testament. You know, whether it's Hebrew,
you know, the, the Hebrew writings, Islamic writings or
Christian, Judea or Christian, there's a lot of stuff going on
in there that a person could say, well, this looks
interdimensional to me. So that opens up a whole new
conversation, or I suppose if you're a hardened atheist, it
opens up a whole new can of worms.
And this can of worms is particularly smelly because it
hasn't been open for a long time and people don't want to deal
with it. So what I see happening here,
right at the top, why not the introduction?
This saying is, well, we don't really want to get to the big
questions in life, so let's just talk about these things as if
they've been here the whole time.
Let's just not talk about Genesis 6.
Let's not talk about all the spiritual entities that are
talked about in Buddhism or the Jinn and Islam or any of this
other stuff. Let's just extract the spiritual
component out of all this stuff so that we can't even have a
conversation about it. That's what I see here.
Many decades ago in one of my in one of my classes where we were
talking about animal behavior and I asked the old professor, I
think he was 78 at the time, can you explain birdsong?
Can you explain inherited memory as the monarch butterfly has?
And how does that fit in with the theory of evolution?
Oh, we're not going to talk about that here.
We'll leave the real hard questions to last, and then
we'll make up a paper that totally distracts us from those
real hard questions. Anyway, the paper goes on here.
It says for centuries people worldwide have observed aerial
phenomena that seemed anomalous in some way, some of which,
crucially, we today, even with our more advanced technologies
and scientific understanding, might still regard as
extraordinary. And then it caused Valet Lomas
in case During the 20th century these attracted the label
Unidentified Flying Object and more recently Unidentified
Aerial Phenomena, which with the latter now expanding even
further by changing the A to simply denote anomalous.
Given the some UAP are not only airborne but capable of
traveling underwater, a capacity which is central to the
hypothesis considered here. However, although there have
been many sightings over the years, with the Mutual UFO
Network receiving over 200,000 reports since 1969, quotes
Mellon 2022, these have generally not been taken
seriously by the authorities, at least in public.
However, there was a dramatic shift in 2017 when the footage
of three USO, when the footage of three U.S. military
encounters with UAP was published online.
Now they're doing what a lot of these guys do.
They're taking the pivot to make it seem like all the serious
research started to happen in 2017.
Nobody really believed these things until the government
brought these videos out, and I have a little bit of an issue
with that. It goes on and says it has
subsequently published 3 main reports.
Office of the Director of National Intelligence 212323.
We know how valuable those were not.
And even though these had a very limited scope, mainly events
since 2019 and focusing on US airspace and waters, the number
of cases under consideration is over 800.
At a presentation in May 2023, Doctor Kirkpatrick, then
director of AAR, having since left the post, he argued the
majority probably did have a conventional explanation and
currently remain unidentified only through a lack of good data
that would allow conclusive identification.
Well, then, what was he doing if his job was to identify these
things? I guess you just never got
finished doing that. He goes on, talks about Arrow a
little bit more. I'm not super impressed.
And then it says. Moreover, many critics suspect
that Arrow may be deliberately downplaying the topic and
concealing or at least obfuscating the extraordinary
nature of many UAP related events.
Yeah, no kidding indeed. If the if so, this would follow
a pattern set by predecessors like Project Blue Book, which
overall have served to minimize the significance of UAP and even
to deny the reality at all. This prerogative was admitted as
such by Rear Admiral Hill Encoder, first director of the
CIA from 1947 to 1950, who was quoted by The New York Times in
1960 as saying behind the scenes, high-ranking Air Force
officers are soberly concerned about UFOs, but through official
secrecy and ridicule, many citizens are led to believe the
unknown flying objects are nonsense.
Crucially, though, as Helen Cocker admits, authorities may
have privately long had concerns about UAP, and indeed appear to
still do. In August 2023, for instance,
General Mark Miley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said
the military can explain a lot of UAP.
But there's some that's really kind of weird and unexplainable.
You know, you wonder how much these guys that that come in and
out here know about this stuff. It says in June 2023, explosive
whistle blowing claims made public by Doctor Gresh, talks
about those a little bit that goes on down and talks about
Colonel Carl O'Neill, some of the stuff he said.
We've talked about him recently with the underwater stuff going
on. It says that.
Moreover, these allegations seem to have been taken seriously by
intelligence, military, political communities.
In July 2023, Chuck Schumer, Majority Leader of the Senate,
introduced bipartisan proposals for an unidentified anomalous
Phenomenal Disclosure Act. Yeah, nothing's really come of
this to me. It just looks like another
limited hangout, it continues, saying.
Evidently, political compilations aside, authorities
are perplexed and more of a concern about UAP, which are a
real empirical mystery that science is surely obligated to
investigate is indeed is already happening in some quarters.
They're assuming here that our government, that the people in
the bowels of the deep state really do care about us and
really do want to solve this UFO phenomena.
I don't see that. I I see something probably a lot
darker. It goes on.
It says, in essence, as per all ultra, as per all
ultraterrestrial hypothesis, the the Cth suggest the NIJ
responsible for UAP may already be present in Earth's
environment in some cases, as opposed to having
extraterrestrial explanation. However, rather than existing in
other dimensions per the interdimensional hypothesis, or
other times per the standard space-time dimension, but are
nevertheless hidden in some way as with altered telestical
hypothesis, we should state outright that we consider this
unlikely. Crucially though, we do not
regard it as impossible. Indeed, emerging observations
seem to suggest it may well have some validity.
It could also help to assign some probability weightings.
For instance, before the past few years, we personally have
rated the possibility of Cth having some basis in truth as
low as 1%. Now, in light of recent data
discussed shortly, we would put it around 10%.
This still, of course means we view the Cth as nine times more
unlikely as likely. Wow, what a mouthful.
It just seems like they've gone to a tremendous amount of work
to create this limited hangout. Now here's they bring up a
couple examples here. This first one says the starting
point for taking Cth seriously is perplexity over two
interrelated empirical mysteries.
First, it is increasingly apparent that UAP are not only
aerial, but can also move underwater in ways that further
airborne counterparts counterparts defy explanation.
The importance and indeed urgency of paying attention to
such phenomena has been outlined in a white paper by retired
Admiral Tim Galidant. Now this was a guy, he was an
Admiral, but he was in charge of like weather forecasting.
OK, cited above, submersible objects USO acting in ways that
surpass human technology and even challenge scientific
understanding of what is possible underwater.
They go ahead and talk a little bit about this one that he saw
that said was eight, 800 feet long, had a top speed of 29180
mile per hour. These things are unexplainable
and it's hard to believe that they can even do the things they
do. And it's hard if we take this
story at face value. What we have to think then is
that these creatures, entities, wherever they are, have been
here since the beginning and from their viewpoint have been
evolving alongside humans. And this parallel this, this
parallel trajectory where they're way ahead of us.
Now, maybe they were here before us and for some reason or
another, they've tolerated us as a competitor species.
You know, it's usually not often that in one ecosystem or one
environment, you'll have two apex predators.
I mean, they will they will tend to hunt each other.
It's hard to believe these things would tolerate us.
It goes on until the end of the article.
It says. In the 1920s, for instance,
British and Indian archaeologists discovered the
remains of an ancient civilization along the Indus
River at the sites at Herpa and Emotion Dara.
This site was contemporary with other early urban centers along
the Nile, the Tigers and Euphrates, and the Yangtze, but
had been lost to history for 92,000 years, and its script and
the language it encodes remain undeciphered.
Likewise, most much has been made of a settlement in Turkey
called Goblet Teke, discovered by Claus Smith's in 1994,
described by the BBC as an immense mystery older than
Stonehenge. There Smith found more than 20
circular stone enclosures, the largest 20 meters across,
featuring a circle of stone with two 5 1/2 meter tall pillars as
at its core and grade, with eerie stylized human figures
with folded hands and fox belt belts.
Significantly, the structures are at least 11,000 years old,
making them humanity's oldest known monumental structures,
possibly being a site of worship, hence it being called
the world's first temple. Even more crucially, the
discovery pushes back our understanding of when humans
were capable and interested in creating these kinds of
elaborate monuments and practices by at least several
thousand years. Hence Curie described the site
is reshaping previous ideas on the story of civilization.
Similarly striking was a discover of 2000 of a Stonehenge
like structure and Lake MI that is thought to be at least 10,000
years old. A figure partially derived from
the analysis of the rock use, but also from potential carving
on one stone in the outer circle resembling a Mastodon.
A large proboscidian. A large proboscidian mammal that
roamed across North America during the Pleistocene epoch,
which ended 11,700 years ago. Yet even these discoveries may
now have been superseded by claims of not a wataji that the
Gunang Pengdang site in Java features human megalithic
constructions dating to between 25 and 14,000 BC.
Although their analysis has been fiercely disputed by other
archaeologists, and indeed pressure from such scholars even
LED the journalist to retract the article, as discussed in in
No 20. Nevertheless, the point remains
that even our relative history is somewhat generally not
disputed to be undiscovered and or underappreciated for their
significance. Now it's nice to have brought
this stuff up. I'm not really sure what it has
to do with the price of tea in China.
You can see they're going back. And I'm talking about how
archaeologists have overlooked some of these ancient
civilizations, apparently, and maybe in the same way they
overlooked these early terrestrial creatures, whatever
these entities are that have been here perhaps before mankind
and alongside mankind ever since.
It's an interesting abstract. And it's it's fun to see these
guys doing work on it. I mean, I think I looked up that
Harvard has an endowment of $49.495 billion, OK?
They're only allowed to spend like 2.2 billion of that a year.
I don't know why they're saving the other 47 billion.
I guess they figure they might need the money at some point.
If you look on Google, it'll tell you that it's like 50,
nine, $57,000 a year to go to college there.
But if you figure in books, tuition, all other expenses,
they tell us that for your degree at Harvard's going to
cost you around $334,000, OK. So these are people with a lot
of money. Sometimes when you get a lot of
money, you start to think that because you know how to make
money or how hold on the money that you know everything else.
I'm not sure these guys are on to the right track here.
We'll just finish up with this quick little newspaper article.
This is from New York post.com. It says aliens might be living
among us disguised as humans are in a base inside the moon.
According to new Harvard study published June 12th 927.
Of course, we just write the study in parts of the state
there, says the researchers, have investigated so-called
crypto terrestrials. These could be disguising
themselves as humans to fit in, may have come to from Earth's
future, or might have disted from intelligent dinosaurs.
The study was created to offer an alternate unconventional
explanation for UAP sightings and to hypothesize what they
might mean and the possibility that UAP may involve forms of
non human intelligence that are already present in nurse
environment in some sense that exists alongside with distinct
stealth, the paper reads. The author became more
increasingly aware of the depth of evidence and theory that also
tentatively supports another ultra terrestrial explanation,
the crypto terrestrial hypothesis.
Cth. And then they talked a little
bit. What just went over there?
It says. The first are human crypto
terrestrials, a technologically advanced ancient human
civilization that was largely destroyed.
The second are hominid or theropod crypto terrestrials, a
technologically advanced non human civilization consisting of
some terrestrial animal which evolved to live in stealth
underground. The paper suggest these could be
an ape like hominid descendant or descendants of unknown
intelligent dinosaurs. The third crypto terrestrials
are former extraterrestrial or extratempsterial crypto
terrestrials. Those would have arrived on
Earth from elsewhere in the corners or from the human future
respectively and concealed themselves.
And stealth, such as in the moon and the 4th are magical crypto
terrestrials, entities which are less like home grown aliens and
more like earthbound angels. The paper says these relate to
the world inhabited by humans in ways that are less technological
than magical. Giving these examples fairies,
elves and nymphs. I think they forgot Bigfoot.
The academics do conclude that their theories, especially the
elves suggestion, might be hard to take.
By many people, they add, the principal weakness of Cth 4 by
contrast, is this utter strangeness, particularly for
readers school to limit themselves to modes of
explanation within the balance of, say, the standard model of
physics. While belief in
extraterrestrials is tenable, belief in something else,
fairies is simply not a live option for many scientists.
The paper Crypto Terrestrial hypothesis, the case for a
scientific openness to a concealed earthly explanation
for unidentified anomalous phenomena, is not yet peer
reviewed. Well, I put the links.
You can go over there and take a look at this paper yourself and
see what you think. I know it was kind of wordy,
kind of dense, and might have really had to pay attention to
listen to it, but it's something and I think it's something worth
looking at. Until next time, this is UFO
warning over now.
