NASA mysteriously trying to pull world’s fastest plane, SR-71 Blackbird, out of retirement — and won’t say why

Seeing Blackbird fly again after all these years would be incredible. I’d love to know what NASA has planned for it.

I guess we can put to rest the idea that the US government has successfully reverse engineered UFOs. Because if they had, there would be absolutely no need to do this if we could fly anywhere in the world in minutes or seconds and invisibly.

UFOs are most likely manmade, otherwise probably something other-dimensional like angels or demons. The distances in space are too vast for visitors, the idea breaks down in more than one way once you dig into it.

We have no way of knowing if they’ve overcome the obstacle of traveling long distances in space.

Yeah but why would they do it to come here? I mean, gestures vaguely at everything

Also, if they were billions of light years away and they looked at our planet from afar, they would see our planet billions of years ago. No reason to visit. What are the chances of a random visit?

Also why does increased activity in that sphere always correspond with batshit political times. Also why are all the UFO celebs obvious fucking grifters. Also…

If we know that, so do they. If intergalactic travel is no different to them than driving across town is to you and me, why wouldn’t they?

Teleportation or something like that happens multiple times in the Bible, even if fiction it could contain nuggets of truth
