AI Thread Summary
Secret files on UFO sightings from the Ministry of Defence have been released for the first time, covering incidents from 1978 to 1987. These documents, now available for download on the National Archives website, include reports of strange lights and unidentified objects observed by the public, military personnel, and police. Eight files have been released initially, with nearly 200 more expected to be made available over the next four years. For the first month, these documents can be downloaded for free. Some accounts, such as a report of a "round glowing craft" landing on an airway, raise skepticism regarding their authenticity, particularly in light of security measures like runway cameras.

I saw that earlier. The "round glowing craft" that supposedly landed on an airway before immediately taking off was unusual. I thought they had security cameras covering runways, no?

You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
Thread 'My experience as a hostage'
I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay.
