UAP as NHI: Probability vs. Certainty

Science EN ↓ 22 episodes

Unidentified Anomalous Phenomenon as Non-Human Intelligence is a site dedicated to promoting a uniquely combined philosophical, scientific, and logical approach to the UFO enigma. The primary goal is to assess a non-human-intelligence probability value of the phenomenon without the need for claims of scientific fact or absolute truth. The aim is to offer a fresh approach that eliminates the need for "opinion" or "belief" in public discussions about the topic. Instead, a neutral position that fosters non-biased interpretation and pluralistic discourse is encouraged.

Ep 021: A Full Reading of the MJ-12 Special Operations Manual SOM1-01 22.02.2026

In this episode, I present a full reading of the MJ-12 Special Operations Manual (SOM1-01), one of the most detailed and controversial documents associated with the Majestic-12 narrative. Allegedly produced in the early 1950s, the manual claims to outline procedures for UFO crash recovery, containment, and the handling of non-human biological entities. Unlike the earlier MJ-12 documents, SOM1-01 s...

Ep 020: A Full Reading of the MJ-12 Eisenhower Briefing Document 02.02.2026

In this episode, I present a full, chronological reading of the three most widely discussed MJ-12 documents: the Eisenhower Briefing Document, the Truman Memo to Forrestal, and the Cutler/Twining Memo. Allegedly created between 1947 and 1954, these papers claim to outline a secret government effort to manage UFO crash recoveries and non-human intelligence, spanning the administrations of Harry S....

Ep 019: The 10 Degrees of Disclosure 17.01.2026

In this episode of UAP as NHI, we explore the many ways “disclosure” is defined within the UAP community and why the conversation has become so fragmented. To bring clarity to the topic, the episode introduces a simplified 10 Degrees of Disclosure framework that organizes everything from early civilian sightings to direct non-human contact into a clear, evidence-based progression. Each level is ex...

Ep 018: NHI Origin Likelihood Chart 23.11.2025

This episode marks the conclusion of the NHI Origins Mini-Series, where I present the NHI Origin Likelihood Chart—a structured tool designed to estimate the most probable source of non-human intelligences associated with the UAP phenomenon. By examining sixty-five distinct points of evidence and evaluating how well each aligns with the four major origin hypotheses, the chart offers a logical, orga...

Moving Delay 31.10.2025

Episode 18 will be delayed until next month since I'm still in the process of unpacking from the move to my new home. I also have to finish setting up my studio. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.

Ep 017: The Interdimensional Hypothesis 25.09.2025

In Part 4 of the NHI Origins miniseries, I examine the Interdimensional Hypothesis (IDH) as a possible contender for explaining the UAP phenomenon. From Jacques Vallée’s groundbreaking work connecting modern sightings with ancient folklore, to modern debates about high strangeness, simulation theory, and the role of consciousness, this episode unpacks the many ways the phenomenon may originate fro...

EP 016: The Extraterrestrial Hypothesis 15.08.2025

In Part 3 of the NHI Origins miniseries, I explore the Extraterrestrial Hypothesis (ETH), long considered the default explanation for the UAP phenomenon. Despite recent shifts in favor of alternative models, the ETH remains compelling, particularly when considering the abundance of reported craft, the variety of non-human intelligences (NHI) described by eyewitnesses, and the historical consistenc...

EP 015: The Extratempestrial Model 19.07.2025

In Part 2 of the NHI Origins miniseries, I explore the Extratempestrial Model (ETM), a hypothesis developed by Dr. Michael P. Masters which proposes that at least some UAP-related phenomena may be the result of time-traveling future humans. Drawing from evolutionary anthropology, theoretical physics, and high-quality case studies, Masters suggests that the beings frequently described in abduction...

Ep 014: Cryptoterrestrial Evolutionary Timelines (Part 2) 15.06.2025

In the first installment of the Origins miniseries, I continue with Part 2 of The Cryptoterrestrial / Ultraterrestrial Hypothesis , focusing on hypothetical evolutionary timelines for potential non-human intelligences—species that may have evolved underground in vast subterranean domains. The aim here is to explore how a parallel civilization could have reached intelligence deep in Earth’s past. T...

Ep 013: The Cryptoterrestrial / Ultraterrestrial Hypothesis (Part 1) 26.05.2025

Cryptoterrestrial/Ultraterrestrial Hypothesis is the first installment of an "Origins" mini-series that tackles the 4 main possibilities of potential NHI origin as it relates to the UAP phenomenon. This is Part 1 of 2 for this particular origin possibility. Part 1 includes all the major arguments in support of Earth being the original point of origin for NHI, whether as a separate specie...

Ep 012: A Reading of "The Cryptoterrestrial Hypothesis" by Lomas, Masters, Case 30.04.2025

Here I'm offering a reading of an academic paper by Tim Lomas, Brendan Case, and Michael P. Masters titled, "The Cryptoterrestrial Hypothesis: A Case for Scientific Openness to a Concealed Earthly Explanation for UAP." It appeared in the June 2024 issue of Philosophy and Cosmology. This is the third and final of such readings surrounding this topic as a lead-up to the next full episo...

Ep 011: A Reading of "The Ultraterrestrial Hypothesis" by Tim Lomas 21.04.2025

Here I'm offering a reading of an academic paper by Tim Lomas, titled "The Ultraterrestrial Hypothesis: A Case for Scientific Openness to an Interdimensional Explanation for UAP," that appeared in the Journal of Transpersonal Psychology in November 2023. This is the second of 3 such readings surrounding this topic as a lead-up to the next full episode, "The Ultraterrestrial / Cr...

Ep 010: A Reading of "Ultraterrestrial Models" by Hal Puthoff 12.04.2025

Here I'm offering a reading of an academic paper by Hal Puthoff, titled "Ultraterrestrial Models," that appeared in the Journal of Cosmology in September 2022. This will be the first of 3 such readings surrounding this topic as a lead-up to the next full episode, "The Ultraterrestrial / Cryptoterrestrial Hypothesis," which will be the first in a 5-part, NHI-origin miniserie...

Ep 009: UAP as NHI Probability Worksheet --- Grade any UFO Case 03.03.2025

The UAP as NHI Probability worksheet is a 2-page form designed to provide a probability value for non-human involvement regarding any UFO case in history. It basically grades each case on the merits of the available evidence and highlights which ones are more or less likely to feature an NHI connection. Below are links to the site and forms.

In my very first interview episode, I'm joined by Executive Director of the Paradigm Research Group, Stephen Bassett, to discuss the most recent congressional UAP hearing that took place this past Wednesday, November 13, 2024. We discuss some of the highlights of the hearing, as well as many other topics. https://paradigmresearchgroup.org/ https://www.hollywooddisclosurealliance.org/founder-st...

EP 004: Science is Wrong About UAP (Part 2) 28.10.2024

We resume with Part 2 of Science is Wrong About UAP. This episode continues with highlighting errors in the scientific approach to the UAP topic. Errors in scientific reasoning and logical fallacies are the main focus. An overview of the 1973 encounter of Lt. Col. Lawrence Coyne and his crew in a Bell Huey helicopter with an unknown object near Mansfield, Ohio is provided as one of the best exampl...

EP 003: Science is Wrong About UAP (Part 1) 29.09.2024

Are skeptics approaching the UAP topic fairly when they demand physical proof or hard evidence of non-human involvement, as though that should be a prerequisite for even considering the possibility? Is that lack of extraordinary evidence grounds to ignore or dismiss the thousands of highly credible accounts that actually DO exist? Is that really how science operates: start with concrete proof and...
