In my previous post, Wild Bill Maher Goes All-In on UFOs, I wrote about Maher’s epic transformation from sneering debunker into Disclosure advocate- after he saw the new documentary (released on Nov. 21, 2025), The Age of Disclosure, directed by Dan Farah, who was his guest on Real Time on Halloween.
Maher, the well-known, politically incorrect contrarian, was practically giddy that UFOs had the ability to turn off our nukes (Capt. Robert Salas of the Malmstrom incident, is featured in The Age of Disclosure), which must’ve chapped the hide of those trying to promote UFOs as a national security threat. Maher said, “If they can turn off our nuclear weapons- I say they can’t get here soon enough. That to me looks like they’re saving us from ourselves- possibly?” (Rare occasion where Maher’s instincts are correct- in my opinion)
On the other hand, Maher fell into the national security narrative when he and Farah speculated that “they” may not have been a threat before, but “they” could be now because “they” may see our technological development as an existential threat to them.
That’s one way to look at it.
That premise fits the national security threat narrative that seems to be the only way to get congress to pay attention. But it’s ridiculous to think that “they” wouldn’t know where technological development would lead us, especially given the distinct possibility that “they’ve” been guiding us towards techno-nirvana as Maher and Farah speculated when discussing the eyewitness testimony that some UFO crashes appear to have been staged for the purpose of seeding their technology into our civilization.
It’s not the first time someone had the thought (in this case, a military intelligence analyst) that ETs were attempting to assist our development through the seeding of advanced technology. Way back in 1962, Colonel Philip J. Corso made exactly the same assessment, according to The Day After Roswell, published on the 50th anniversary of the Roswell Incident by Simon & Schuster.
The real question is: Why would they do that? There is an assumption in the UFO community that can best be called the Space Brother hypothesis. In this scenario, they’re happy to find us and help us out because it’s nice not to be alone in the Cosmos. Spielberg’s Close Encounters of the Third Kind is the embodiment of the Space Brothers meme.
But that’s not it.
The flipside is the Evil-Alien-Invader scenario, where aliens are here to take our planet from us, because, you know, they need the natural resources, real estate, etc., and we might just be the Palestinians of the local interstellar neighborhood.
That’s not it either.
The ubiquitous extraterrestrial presence is a sign – not of extraterrestrial visitation, or invasion – but of extraterrestrial proliferation. The type of which that we aspire (see: Kurzweil, The Singularity is Nearer), that has already been achieved by someone else- long before us.
We need only look at the advancement of our own civilization to understand what they are. According to futurists like Ray Kurzweil, we are on the verge of our own Technological Singularity – when Artificial Intelligence surpasses human intelligence – thus enabling the spread humanity throughout the Cosmos, “at the speed of light or greater.”
That they exist shows they’ve already been there, done that.
What’s really frustrating about the current fascination with Comet 3I/atlas, which dominates space science headlines, is that Harvard professor Avi Loeb has been promoting the idea that it might actually be an extraterrestrial spacecraft, sent to our solar system to observe Earth and/or possibly invade.
There’s only one major problem with this theory- 3I/Atlas is only travelling at only 137,000 miles an hour. According to the mainstream press, this is “blistering” fast, which is true if you’re street racing, but painfully slow if you’re an interstellar invader.
“The tragedy here is that you have an astrophysicist at Harvard who seems to have all the credentials and yet what he is saying about this object is so unscientific,” said Dr. Steven Greer recently, continuing, “So let me do some math and science for you. It’s very simple. The object is moving at 137,000 miles per hour. Now that sounds really fast and for a comet, it is fast. However, as an interstellar object, it’s incredibly slow…
So, when you look at this the closest star system to earth is Proxima Centauri. It’s 4.2 light years… So even at the speed of light, 186,000 miles per second, which is unbelievably faster than 137,000 miles per hour. Right? That what you have is a 66,500 year time to get from the closest red dwarf Proxima Centauri to here.
So the idea that it picked up our early electromagnetic radio signals and radio waves emanation from earth in the late 1800s and 1900s (which is what Avi Loeb said) and that it launched and finally got here is the biggest gaslighting scientifically and absurdity,” said Greer in a recent email blast.
The most relevant thing to know about the comet 3I/Atlas as a possible extraterrestrial craft is that it represents something mainstream scientists can sort of make sense of. Faster-than-light travel just doesn’t compute in the Einsteinian Paradigm in which they live – no matter the theoretical possibilities, whistleblower testimony, etc. – so they see something that looks a little like 20th century Earth technology on steroids and they imagine it might’ve been deployed by some other Earth-type planet.
Avi Loeb’s case for artificiality is based in large part on 31/Atlas traveling in the so-called “ecliptic plane” of our solar system, just as he assumes an earthlike alien probe interested in studying us would.
The post-Singularity civilization, even as it’s happening in real time, is still pure science fiction to this crowd- and so what they are able to do is wrap their collective mind around the possibility that 3I/Atlas might be some sort of alien Apollo Program. Like we would do.
Reality is stranger than fiction.
Funny thing is 31/Atlas could still be ET technology, just not the ridiculously slow interstellar invasion force we backward types imagine, but a form of Directed Panspermia the kinds of which astrophysicist Chandra Wickramadinge and his colleagues have researched and written about.
Such sub-light-speed comets and meteors could’ve been used and might still be in use today to spread the seeds of life (on the molecular level) throughout the Galaxy, ensuring that it takes hold on any planet capable of supporting it. Such a program would take place over millions or even billions of years, based on the Enrico Fermi/von Neumann probe model…
So, you never know…
More to come, stay tuned…
