UAP as NHI: Probability vs. Certainty

In Part 4 of the NHI Origins miniseries, I examine the Interdimensional Hypothesis (IDH) as a possible contender for explaining the UAP phenomenon. From Jacques Vallée’s groundbreaking work connecting modern sightings with ancient folklore, to modern debates about high strangeness, simulation theory, and the role of consciousness, this episode unpacks the many ways the phenomenon may originate from realities beyond our own. The dis...

In Part 3 of the NHI Origins miniseries, I explore the Extraterrestrial Hypothesis (ETH), long considered the default explanation for the UAP phenomenon. Despite recent shifts in favor of alternative models, the ETH remains compelling, particularly when considering the abundance of reported craft, the variety of non-human intelligences (NHI) described by eyewitnesses, and the historical consistency of abduction and contact experien...

In Part 2 of the NHI Origins miniseries, I explore the Extratempestrial Model (ETM), a hypothesis developed by Dr. Michael P. Masters which proposes that at least some UAP-related phenomena may be the result of time-traveling future humans. Drawing from evolutionary anthropology, theoretical physics, and high-quality case studies, Masters suggests that the beings frequently described in abduction and encounter narratives—large-brai...

In the first installment of the Origins miniseries, I continue with Part 2 of The Cryptoterrestrial / Ultraterrestrial Hypothesis, focusing on hypothetical evolutionary timelines for potential non-human intelligences—species that may have evolved underground in vast subterranean domains. The aim here is to explore how a parallel civilization could have reached intelligence deep in Earth’s past.

This episode features multiple evoluti...

Cryptoterrestrial/Ultraterrestrial Hypothesis is the first installment of an "Origins" mini-series that tackles the 4 main possibilities of potential NHI origin as it relates to the UAP phenomenon. This is Part 1 of 2 for this particular origin possibility.

Part 1 includes all the major arguments in support of Earth being the original point of origin for NHI, whether as a separate species that evolved to intelligence milli...

Here I'm offering a reading of an academic paper by Tim Lomas, Brendan Case, and Michael P. Masters titled, "The Cryptoterrestrial Hypothesis: A Case for Scientific Openness to a Concealed Earthly Explanation for UAP." It appeared in the June 2024 issue of Philosophy and Cosmology. This is the third and final of such readings surrounding this topic as a lead-up to the next full episode, "The Ultraterrestrial / Cr...

Here I'm offering a reading of an academic paper by Tim Lomas, titled "The Ultraterrestrial Hypothesis: A Case for Scientific Openness to an Interdimensional Explanation for UAP," that appeared in the Journal of Transpersonal Psychology in November 2023. This is the second of 3 such readings surrounding this topic as a lead-up to the next full episode, "The Ultraterrestrial / Cryptoterrestrial Hypothesis," w...

Here I'm offering a reading of an academic paper by Hal Puthoff, titled "Ultraterrestrial Models," that appeared in the Journal of Cosmology in September 2022. This will be the first of 3 such readings surrounding this topic as a lead-up to the next full episode, "The Ultraterrestrial / Cryptoterrestrial Hypothesis," which will be the first in a 5-part, NHI-origin miniseries. Dr. Puthoff proposes that the or...

The UAP as NHI Probability worksheet is a 2-page form designed to provide a probability value for non-human involvement regarding any UFO case in history. It basically grades each case on the merits of the available evidence and highlights which ones are more or less likely to feature an NHI connection. Below are links to the site and forms.UFO | UAP as NHI: Probability vs. Science

We resume with Part 2 of Science is Wrong About UAP. This episode continues with highlighting errors in the scientific approach to the UAP topic. Errors in scientific reasoning and logical fallacies are the main focus. An overview of the 1973 encounter of Lt. Col. Lawrence Coyne and his crew in a Bell Huey helicopter with an unknown object near Mansfield, Ohio is provided as one of the best examples where skeptics would have a d...

Are skeptics approaching the UAP topic fairly when they demand physical proof or hard evidence of non-human involvement, as though that should be a prerequisite for even considering the possibility? Is that lack of extraordinary evidence grounds to ignore or dismiss the thousands of highly credible accounts that actually DO exist? Is that really how science operates: start with concrete proof and work backwards? Or perhaps the s...

Episode 2 features 10 basic steps to help standardize ufology and get everyone on the same page. 1. Avoid convictions 2. Suspend judgment 3. Abstain from ridicule or personal attacks 4. Avoid claiming absolute certainty 5. Remove all emotion from the equation 6. Acknowledge there exists no substantiated physical evidence 7. Apply truth-seeking methods of SPECIAL 8. Utilize NHI Probability Worksheet 9. Run Bayesian statistical mode...

Episode 1 highlights most of the topics that will be covered on the program. UAP as NHI: Probability vs. Certainty is a podcast dedicated to promoting a uniquely combined philosophical, scientific, and historical approach to the UFO enigma. The primary goal is to assess a non-human intelligence probability value of the phenomenon without the need for claims of scientific fact or absolute truth.

Unidentified Anomalous Phenomenon a...
