Oh boy. It’s August already! Summer is flying by. This week is the final week for our?Frontier Development Lab (FDL)?team for this year, with their final presentations happening on Friday. I have it from a good source that they hit it out of the ballpark, so I’m looking forward to seeing what they have accomplished. If you missed?Bill Diamond’s?SETI Live interview with?Jason Talley?of the Department of Energy’s Artificial Intelligence and Technology Office, you can find it here.

We’ve got a couple of teams out in the field this month.?Laurance Doyle’s?team, studying humpback whale communication, is doing field research in Alaska. Meanwhile,?Pascal Lee?has just traveled up to Devon Island in the Arctic, where he’ll be testing equipment for potential use for planetary exploration. We hope to do a SETI Live with one or both of them in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!

Cheers to all you Earthlings,

Rebecca

The truth is out there. But this UFO ‘whistleblower’ likely doesn’t have it.

On Wednesday, David Grusch, a former military intelligence officer, told a House Oversight subcommittee that all those stories you’ve read on the internet are true: The government has debris collected from crashed alien spacecraft. He also told the assembled lawmakers that federal retrieval teams have collected biological remains from alien bodies.

"And why is it that the aliens at least seem to invariably set their navigation hardware to visit America and not some other country that might not feel the need to keep these visitors under wraps?"
