Early UFO Disc Reports.

Sure, but first, allow me to say I truly believe in extra-terrestrial life.  I honestly do.  I just don't believe many of the observations made by people concerning the same.  And, I think a lot of it is what I would call "confirmation bias".  In other words, people trying to prove what they believe a UFO would really look like

As you likely know, I work in aviation and electronic systems.  Over my long career I've seen many things which I cannot explain, but most of them don't have some sort of a shape or predictable action.  Many of these things are just what I would call very "weird" phenomenon.  Things which don't make sense to this pilot and physicist (by education).  I have long studied the reported "UFO" phenomenon in hopes it would explain some of the things I've seen, but it never has.

Direct to your question, I have studied "radar" technology from my first learning of it from my father's experiences at the end of WW2.  He flew in B-17's with the USAAF.  Radar technology in those days was in its infancy, and I was fascinated with it from day one.  Many of the early UFO reports which cite radar tracking reports are notoriously inaccurate, primarily because the radar technology, even up into the mid 50's, was fairly primitive (in the Stone Age, compared to today).  Much of the early technology was based on the concept of radio direction finding which is an exercise in geometry and mathematical triangulation.  The same principles work today, but the technology is far more advanced.

In the same breath, I have also worked with the NTSB on crash investigations.  I know from this that upwards of 90+ percent of eyewitness reports are totally erroneous.  These reports are often helpful for other reasons, but things like direction, altitude, speed and orientation are often completely wrong.  Some of the useful reasons are things like observed fire, falling debris and sounds.  To me, this discounts many of the early reports in the 50's and 60's.  I am especially adverse to the classic "flying saucer" reports.  This is not how E.T. will visit us (for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is mass, drag and propulsion...not to mention aerodynamics).

I could make a list a mile long, and bore you to tears with it, but the bottom line for me is...I believe E.T.'s exist, and I even further believe they have visited Earth.  But, as I have stated many, many, times...I think we are looking in all the wrong places for E.T.  Candidly, E.T. could, and likely IS, living among us every day, we just don't realize it.  It could be microscopic...it could be macroscopic...it could be imperceptible to the human senses.  E.T. could exist as a state of energy without physical form, it could live in a hostile environment which doesn't support human life (like the oceans); the possibilities are endless.

When people see a "flying saucer", or a humanoid looking figure (with a head, 2 arms and 2 legs), we can rule these things out almost automatically.  This isn't how E.T. will look, IF we can even "see" him/it.  Humans are selfish.  We think everything will be like us.  The chances of E.T. being anything at all like us are next to zero.  Just the distances involved are so great as to preclude E.T. from being a human-like form.  In fact, it is our human physiologic form which 'prevents' us from ever being able to explore the stars beyond.

When we see grainy,, out of focus, pictures of some apparent craft, we must think to ourselves...okay, how did this craft with mass and obvious propulsion travel from light years away to Earth?  This quickly rules out most of these grainy and out of focus pictures.  That's not how E.T. will arrive here (if he/she/it chooses to do so).  They will be far more sophisticated than to have craft like this.  Why?  Because such craft defy the laws of physics, frankly.  That is...unless these beings are timeless and can exist for tens of thousands of years and never have a need to "phone home" regarding their travels.

Some of the things I've seen are strange radio, radar and RF anomalies which don't 'compute'.  Some examples are things which should work perfectly fine, and then suddenly stop for no explainable reason, only to resume again a few seconds or minutes later.  Weird things like where light appears to interfere with RF signals in some unexplainable way.  I've seen examples of where radio signals (radar in particular) create what appears to be visual light (on a repeatable basis) with absolutely no explanation in physics (this, BTW, is one of my weirder discoveries).  There are clearly things afoot which we do not yet understand.  There are so many of these things that there are countless opportunities for things like real E.T.'s to be sitting there chuckling at us silly humans.  I could write a book on this subject (probably several in fact), but with people's 15 second attention spans anymore, I doubt they would be of much interest.  Even my radar example noted above would take several pages of text just to set up the environment, all the angles, reflections, air densities and other physical characteristics that most people's eyes would glaze over and roll back in their head's before I even got to the point.

Anyway, hopefully this responds to your question(s).

Best!
