    I’ll play.

    Either McMurdo or Palmer stations in Antarctica. Would fit lots of threads that have been planted out there (looking at you Fox Maulder and John Carpenter).

    And would definitely cause an international incident given its international legal status.

      I did work with an astrophysics PhD (not in this field, more like a data analyst) who had worked there (Antarctica).

      I jokingly (well, not really!) asked him if he knew where the UFOs were and he said they would put ufo stuff in log entries “as a joke”.

      The response was not "UFOs? What?’ he was well aware of the various beliefs and so on. He changed the subject after that.

      I want to stress we were in a workplace just chatting before getting down to business. I am not implying in any way he was hiding anything but he was definitely aware of this stuff and dismissed it with a joke. Found that interesting.

    …the UFO was a 30-foot saucer, stuck in the ground partway, but it felt like the inside was the size of a football stadium. When officials tried to pull it out of the ground, a shape started to pull off almost like a slice of pie, so they stopped.

    “They had a guy go into it,” Sheehan told Daily Mail. “He got in there, and it was as big as a football stadium. It was freaking him out and started making him feel nauseous, he was so disoriented because it was so gigantic inside… He staggered back out after being in there a couple of minutes, and outside it was four hours later.”

    Assume this is true and real for the sake of argument: what would this actually mean? I dont know much about space-time, but this sounds to me as though the UFO in question is merely a portal another another dimension or, (more likely?) a planet/location in a different part of our universe, and that location is closer to a black hole, so time passes more slowly.

    I dunno. I’m high AF RN

    I love all of the suggestions people are coming up with for the potential site. Speculation is a fun aspect of the phenomenon that helps fuel interest while we push for disclosure. And this is a fairly harmless theory to get wrapped up in.
