UFO (and other) information from books, TV programming, social media, blogs, et cetera
Copyright 2021, InterAmerica, Inc.
My former pal and ongoing nag, Parakletos [Shane Johns] contests the use of books for information, writing this in a comment: “any idiot can write a book! And many can get published. The fact that you throw book authors around is not impressive at all to me. Peer-reviewed articles in respectable Journals, on the other hand, may impress.”
The books I use, generally, are invariably by academics, from University presses: Harvard, Princeton, University of Chicago, et al.
Most are peer reviewed at Academia.edu and in literary magazines: The London Review of Books, TLS (Times Literary Supple- ment),The Paris Review, et cetera.
(Shane, er Parakletos, uses the internet for much that he imparts. Need I say more?)
P is unhappy with Professor Michael P. Masters’ (Professor of Biological Anthropology at Montana in Butte) erudite Identified Flying Objects [2019] used here as a primary source for the time-traveling hypothesis of UFOs.
And he’s not inclined to like renown physicist Lee Smolin, as you will see in his comment underneath the time-traveling posting here, right below this missive.
I’m using Smolin’s Einstein’s Unfinished Revolution: The Search for What Lies Beyond the Quantum [Penguin Books, 2019/2020] to augment my limited understanding of (space)time and quantum physics.
There is no substitute for academically approved books as far as I’m concerned. And while some may prove wanting – according to peer-reviews and intellectual criticism – such books rise well above the standards that P and others use to lambaste such offerings.
In order to get at the time-traveling UFO argument, one needs to consider the mechanisms of travel and the exquisite hypotheses about future humankind, not the details of Einstein’s spacetime theories which are interesting in themselves but only pertinent as fodder for a quasi-philosophical assessment of whether our past remains intact and could, thus, be visited by future humans.
The argument partly revolves around Dominick’s idea that time doesn’t move backward, a view that is disrupted by some quantum mechanical considerations.
Is the past intact so it can be visited? Is movement backward in time possible since time is emergent only, according to the formulae of classical physics?
I’ll press forward with Dr. Masters’ theses and Smolin’s elucidating ruminations, and try not to be recondite as P continues to insist I am.
If you have anything to add, please do. I need all the legitimate help I can get.
