Now I'm a tenured full professor. I'm still a strict, grounded scientist, but I'm using my scientific background and understanding to ask questions that normally we can't ask without the protections of tenure. But yeah, it's funny because people are always like, how does a biological anthropologist get involved in this? But really, it was how did someone involved in this from age eight become a biological anthropologist? And that's sort of what brought me to this is the form of these beings. They just have a suite of characteristics that are not only consistent with the hominin lineage, what we are, they have a form consistent with what we'd expect to see in our evolutionary future. We would expect to see something that looks very similar to these beings. Welcome back to the transmission, my friends. For me, the UFO phenomenon is just such an irresistibly seductive rabbit hole. It is saucily novel, yet like anything that is dubious or unverifiable, it's really difficult to know what to make of each individual case, story, person involved.
