YES. Brilliant last line summing up all you wrote here. I think fear is certainly stopping many people from daring to consider that ETs are real and that they've been here at all, never mind for centuries. Any decision based on fear will never have a good outcome, and we've been making loads of those decisions with regard to ETs - beginning with government people who have gone to great lengths to hide the truth.

It was fascinating to watch those navy clips that were finally released by the government, and to see documents that are now public. Heaven only knows how many thousands of other documents and bits of photographic evidence remain "in the vault."

Thanks for another interesting read! And there is another excellent Netflix series, by the way, it's called Top Secret UFO Projects: Declassified. If you haven't already seen it, I'm sure you'd enjoy that one, too!
