Colonel Philip Corso roswell ufo crash

[capthelm]

all true ..imo alien races have visted earth for eons. been covered up for decades..

listen to this man very highly credible .
alien roswell crash in 47 , lead to microchip technology , fibre optic cables
night vision goggles.


thx to our little space brothers they gave us a helping hand in our evolution.

............is he a nut? i think not.

anyone thats intrested in this subject.... read his book the day after roswell.

Things that make you go hmmm.

I'd believe in the Easter Bunny before this story. Those technologies evolved in a progressive fashion certainly within the human mind to accomplish. I think he's looking for cash with a story.

Wasn't night vision technology first developed during WWII?

Wasn't night vision technology first developed during WWII?

Yes and no.

They had active infra-red systems like "vampire" and the tank equivalents.

These work by shining a bright, invisible, infra-red light at what you want
to see and turning the resulting image into visible light.
The drawback for military use is that the bright IR light you need to
shine will give away your position to the enemy if they have a method of
seeing IR light also.

You can't always see very far just by shining IR either; like you can't
see that far in the dark with a torch.

This is still the most common form of night vision for civilian use.

Modern military night vision also works, in part, with IR light, but it is
sensitive enough to pick up the very low levels of light (inc. IR light)
that are about at night. It does not need it's own light source.

This does, however, illustrate the steady progression of technology.
No aliens needed.

I have not changed my opinions since we adressed this theme the last time here:

What I said there, I still say today, here.

[Buddahaid]

To clarify my "belief", I welcome the thought, and indeed find it hard to out-rule, of other intelligence. I just don't believe this guys claim that we owe current technology to outside influence.

[Torplexed]

Just another charlatan cashing in on the gullible.

I think it is incredibly insulting to the scientists and engineers who did develop those technologies to suggest that they lied and obtained it all from reverse engineering. And that they were shown how to do this by an unqualified Army lieutenant colonel. Anyone who has studied the history of engineering realizes that Corso's claims run directly afoul of mountains of documented development history. Things like the transistor did not just spring up out of thin air. They were developed according to the normal methods of materials and electrical engineering, and that process has a trail both on paper and in the minds of the people who participated.

Sorry but if you are sucked in by his story I've got a bridge you can have for a real steal.

Oh? How much?
