Nowadays, the Unusual Aerial Phenomena have almost
disappeared from the skies; not a landing is mentioned, less a CE3. We the
investigators and experts are almost obliged to deal with videos and
photos
We have no longer real
UAPs, but cyber-UAPs!
This comprises the vast majority of UAP reports currently
done.
The subject in itself is agonizing, and what is left is a
small amount of fantasy prone people, ready to accept and devour web pages of
doubtful origin and worst purposes, that exploit credulity. The so-called
“contactees”, ready to repeat like a record the same story of their
“experience” making money through that activity, and those who have mounted a
real business based in the permanent production of bulletins, books, CDs, DVDs
about the UAP and supposedly “related” subjects as old civilizations,
crop-circles, orbs, rods, ghosts, men-in-black, and somber announcements of the
end of the World.
Confronting all these manifestations of ignorance, of the
will to believe almost in anything, and the sensationalistic media that sees in
the UAP subject a way to make profits, increase the rating, call the attention
or sell more newspapers, are the serious investigators; the people that without
any other financial resources that their own, and without any other engagement
that the one that comes from searching for the truth, feel themselves compelled
to investigate, analyze, study and come to a conclusion about a UAP report or
series of reports.
That is the core of the UAP subject. That is the correct
activity to be done. That is the difficult, sometimes tedious, never rewarded,
but honest, sincere, common sense approach to the problem in general and to
specific cases.
The best activity dealing with UAPs comes from this
search for the truth, from this effort to find a reasonable and plausible
explanation to something that apparently was strange or abnormal.
No doubt about it! The UAP subject is something that has
to be dealt scientifically, and when science, common sense, the Occam’s razor
principle and honesty are applied, an extremely limited amount of things remain
unexplained.
And even so, the lack of a valid explanation at a given
moment does not imply that the case couldn’t and shouldn’t be reviewed in the
future and that later, an explanation possibly could be found.
May these words be the proper introduction to an
excellent analytical job done by our colleague and friend Mr. Leopoldo Zambrano
Enríquez, (from Monterrey, México) and a UAPSG Member, about a notorious case of
a “strange object falling into the Popocatéptl volcano”, on October 25, 2012.
