Off topic but still Retro

So stuck in my cabin due to this wretched weather getting my flight home cancelled, watching some classic ‘Galactica 1980’ reliving my youth (they were reruns when I first watched them, I'm not that old)

Already watched ‘Battlestar Galactica’

When the episode I was watching finished I found it Amusing that they have this weird disclaimer about not investigating UFO’s

Do you think the US Government are trying to hide something hahaha

“Conspiracy Alert”

Right you can get back to your Amiga’s now or whatever other retro computer your in too

there are 400,000,000,000 (400B) stars in the Milky Way galaxy, I would find it hard to believe that at *least* 4 civilizations are not more advanced than ours, and have possibly developed FTL / space folding technology of some sort.

why haven't they contacted us?

toddlers with nukes...

Sat on the deck of our home as a kid (Northeastern Pennsylvania - quite rural even today) in the mid-1970's late at night in the summers. No city lights or illuminated industry zones to haze it up - we were 100 miles from any big city, and at least 50 miles from anything on the smaller scale of that. We watched the stars, thick as can be, the Milky Way, come out on really clear nights. Watched falling stars streak across every so often (the popular meteor shower periods). Watched satellites blink into view or out (earth shadow enter/leaving), or just make their way across the sky at a predictable rate. On rare occasions, we did see some sun-lit (or maybe had some other visible-light properties) object movement that simply was not keeping with the laws of physics - stuff that should have kept going in the path it started with, but didn't. The objects eventually took off past the horizon, and minutes later what could only be US Air Force jet engines high up and (once in the area, blinking with typical marker colors) at a much slower speed crossed the sky. The objects were certainly unidentified because they weren't sticking around to be identified. I can't confirm anything more than seeing something odd, but I know meteors and satellites have predictable paths, and what I witnessed simply didn't.
