Ufology seems fractured

The UFO discussion is all over the place, with many newbies joining the conversation, inserting stuff that is really irrelevant, and I think everything is connected, as many of you know.

(I find the attacks on Nick Pope particularly egregious: his work at MoD tamped down by people who seem jealous of Nick’s omnipresence in UFO programming, trying to demote him in the UFO community.)

And reading this book, which I was drawn to because it exploits the time-travel hypothesis.

But unfortunately, the author, Michael Masters opens his tome renaming UFOs as IFOs and the things piloting them, allegedly, extratempestrials (persons from our future).

His opening pages irk for some reason but I’m hoping the later pages make his case and they do seem to be flush with scientific argument.

Then I have this book by Ryan Sprague.

I enjoyed the opening pages, written with humility and graciousness.

But so far his use of personal reflections on UFO experiences puts me off; the insertions petty:
