I will do in the subject unearthing.
This weekend, at my parents' house, I came across a book by Jean-Claude Bourret! Yeah anyway! Me too when I saw the name of the author, I said to myself "Force to look at what is inside !!!".
If I'm not mistaken, the title must be "The New UFO Challenge", it came out in 1976!
I went through the book very quickly to see how the thing was done. And despite all the prejudices that I could have, it seemed rather well done to me.
There is a first part which lists various events and testimonies related to UFOs, police reports, articles, etc ...
The whole thing seemed to me treated like a journalist, that is to say just a collection of facts (no orientation of speech to say, UFOs exist blablabla ...).
The last part deals, in a (more or less) scientific way, with the fabrication of a UFO by starting from the testimonies and by trying to validate them scientifically.
What is the ideal shape? how to make fly the machine, how to make move the machine, etc ...
Looking at the conclusion of the book, I come across the signature of the author of the last part: Jean Pierre PETIT !!!!
There I was stupid !!
1976 !!! All the bullshit I've read on this forum (that nobody feels targeted, bullshit here has no pejorative purpose) were detailed with graphs, formulas, etc ... in this book from 1976 !!!!
After the conclusion, there follows 80 annex pages from Jean Pierre Petit with various calculations!
Those who are interested in MHD and possibly UFOs can try to get this book.
It seems to be a good reference.
After browsing this book in large diagonals, I made a few reflections (to which I do not necessarily expect an answer):
- Why does everyone (including me) care so much about the mouth of Jean-Claude Bourret?
- Why were there so many testimonies on UFOs at the time (around 1976) and that there are none today (am I wrong?)? Don't extra-terrestrials come to see us anymore? Did they find techniques of absolute invisibility that they didn't have at the time? Were these military land experiences not yet developed? Collective mythomania?
