Point of Convergence

046 - UFOs & Timeline Factions


Listen Later

Ever since the dawn of the modern era of flying saucers people have been speculating as to where these apparent visitors were coming from. For decades the leading candidate, in terms of explanations, was of course the ETH: the Extraterrestrial Hypothesis, which postulated that the beings piloting these sophisticated craft were from some far-flung star system, perhaps here not so much to conquer us, but rather to study us, in the spirit of an ambitious intergalactic scientific expedition.

However, as the decades moved along and as detailed data was gathered for the first time, the ubiquitousness of the ETH began to be questioned. Some of the leading experts in the field, such as Jacques Vallee and his own time colleague J.Allen Hynek, early proponents of the ETH, later came to conclude that something like the interdimensional hypothesis was a more likely explanation for what was being observed. This notion postulated that these Others were slipping into our reality via some kind of portal from a parallel reality. Vallee suggested these may even be the same creatures that humans were encountering in distant lore.

While these and other, even more outlandish hypotheses are bandied about on social media, deep pockets of secretive government programs, and certain corners of obscure academia, there is another hypothesis that many seemingly overlook. For those who champion this alternate hypothesis, it is claimed that this hypothesis is in many ways simpler, and exists without violating any known notions of physics, and is thus a stronger candidate than its competitors.

Here I speak of the so-called Future Human Hypothesis: the notion that these Others, or at least some of them, represent a group of our very own descendants who, with their more sophisticated technological understanding, have mastered time travel, allowing them to temporally relocate to our time period. Now, for long periods of time the common assumption was that these future humans were basically nothing more than spectators, peering in on our existence the same way we might take in a period piece at our local cinema.

However, recent details have emerged that call this common assumption into question. In fact new revelations suggest that perhaps these future humans are not here as mere sight seers, but rather as active agents in some plan to alter the historical timeline. What’s even more startling is that these notions appear not to be emerging from some dubious corner of social media, but directly from within the U.S. and other nation’s intelligence communities.

Could this be disinformation? The long historical record of government involvement in this area suggests we should always be wary of this possibility. Is this a distraction meant to throw enthusiasts off the true scent? Or is there something to this? Something to the notion that not just one, but perhaps multiple different factions of future humans – some who look like us, and some who appear to resemble the so-called greys of ufological lore – are here, as competing parties, each trying to manipulate the trajectory of our civilization’s history?

What is the evidence for this? And what relationship do these purported attempts at timeline interference have to do with a purported cataclysmic event that lies somewhere in our near future? These are the very matters we’ll seek to make sense of in this, the 46th episode of the Point of Convergence podcast.
