What if we were told we're not alone, and the sky stayed exactly as quiet as it was before? Settle in for a relaxing ufology documentary, an atmospheric sleep story, and a journey through the paradox of disclosure. Imagining a world after acknowledgement, we'll revisit the Fermi paradox, count our possible neighbours with the Drake equation, and ask how a universe full of life could stay so politely out of sight. Along the way, we'll consider the zoo hypothesis, Martyn Fogg's interdict, the dark forest and the monoculture fallacy, wonder how anyone could stop us seeing what must be all around us, and ask why they wouldn't simply talk to us. From John Keel's superspectrum and Jacques Vallée's control system to David Grusch's claims, alleged treaties, the abduction phenomenon and Lue Elizondo's claims about the Moon, we'll follow the possibilities while asking how much any of these ideas actually explains. And all the while, we'll walk alongside Truman Burbank, a man who lived his whole life beneath a painted sky. Whether you're here to relax, fall asleep, study the strange corners of ufology, or simply wonder who might be watching, I hope you enjoy your stay.
Check in. Tune Out.
