UFO investigator and filmmaker Darcy Weir is back with yet another in a series of thought-provoking productions. This time out it's the absorbing documentary "Secret Space UFOs: NASA's First Missions".
Rife with rapid-fire editing, spectacular astronaut-cultivated images presented both on video and in still photography (and for decades almost entirely unshared with the media or the public) and credible commentary courtesy of Ufology experts running throughout, you're going to be inspired to, at the very least, consider the possibilities of extraterrestrial craft and other unexplained outer space phenomena. If not be persuaded to become a full-blown believer.
The simple fact remains that what our eyes may be seeing, or perceiving that we are seeing, remains speculation. We don't know what the hell we're looking at.
And, to various degrees, this reality touches on dismissive perhaps every bit as much as it does disconcerting.
Pick a path, Galileo.
My father worked as an aerospace engineer for NASA during most of the years covered in this film. He worked with a driving commitment. With heartfelt pride. With a sense that he was part of something far bigger than him.
He worked his ass off. For the U. S. Space program. And for the future of this country he loves with all his might.
My father is my hero.
When he tells me that for humankind to believe that we are the only intelligent lifeform in the entire universe is incredibly arrogant, paraphrasing the public position of current NASA Administrator Bill Nelson in so doing, I side with him.
We may not invest full faith in all of our American administrative and governmental agencies. And by and large for good reason.
But this I know...
In Dad I trust.
