...“For a long time, historical societies kind of shunned this work,” Lewis said. “It's history, whether it's true or not.”...
Well, not really.
If it didn't happen it is mythology at best. If the mythology is not based on any actual provable facts then it is mere fiction.
No problem with that. Until people start believing it to be true; and act upon it as if it were.
We have plenty of experience of that.

Good morning lovely people,
Mysterious Universe
Nimitz UFO Indie Doc Sheds Light in the Darkness
by MJ Banias November 21, 2018
When filmmaker Dave Beaty heard about the strange encounter in November of 2004 between dozens of ‘Tic-Tac’ shaped UFOs, several Naval fighter jets, and the USS Nimitz battle group, he was captivated. Much like the rest of the tireless researchers, filmmakers, and writers who forge the Ufological narrative, Beaty stayed up late, spending countless hours of his personal time to tell a story.
The film uses a mix of stock Navy footage and digitally rendered animations to provide a detailed yet quick recap of the now famous 2004 Nimitz UFO Incident. While much of the documentation of that event is still classified or hidden away by various other interests, the film tells the story with as much accuracy as possible.
Beaty explained in an interview,
“I am using the primary witness accounts available to the public. I have interviewed several of the USS Princeton Air Controllers and radar techs. CDR. David Fravor was interviewed by dozens of journalists, as were CDR. Slaight, and Senior Chief Day. The “Female Pilot” gave a detailed briefing to the AATIP program. These primary witnesses to the event, the radar screens, the cockpits, and the close up visual observations of some of the world’s most highly trained observers leads me to believe what they say is very accurate. So in making this re-creation, I used all those details. Location, time, date, weather, seas, jets, altitudes, speeds, distances, directions. These things are known for the most part. The part that is fiction is what the pilots said to each other – the dialog is fiction.”
As was reported in August of 2018, an unredacted Nimitz report was leaked on Chris Mellon’s website. Mellon, a previous intelligence advisor to the Clinton administration, and To The Star’s Academy’s National Security Affairs Advisor, has made no official comment concerning the leak, but rumors circulating within the UFO community are pointing to a hack. The unredacted report contained the names and personal information of the various pilots involved, including the mystery female pilot who has yet to publicly come forward. Unfortunately, some unsavory profiteering and opportunistic UFO enthusiasts seem to have already released her name publicly on the internet. Beaty, who undoubtedly has seen the unredacted report, has taken the high road, as many other researchers have, and kept her name out of the video.
Beaty explained that creating CGI renderings and making films is his day job. He expressed that this project was different.
“It’s one of the most satisfying things to do, to create stories with total freedom, with no deadline and with no one reviewing proofs endlessly and changing my work.”
With over 18,000 views to date, interest has allegedly been expressed by some mainstream networks such as A&E. Whether this documentary becomes a funded full feature project or not, the true importance of it lies in its desire to seek out more witnesses to the incident.
Beaty explained that those witnesses are out there, he’s been contacted by some.
“In the film I provide an email of anon@thenimitzencounters.com for people to contact me if they have had sightings from military ships or planes. So far I have had several vets reach out to relate their sightings. We are working with a group to help organize military witnesses of UAP. We also hope to convince some of the USS Roosevelt sailors from 2015 to come forward. We believe that the Gimbal video shown by the NYT article was filmed on January 26th, 2015, off the coast of Florida by the Red Rippers squadron.”
The Nimitz event is still shrouded in a lot of mystery. While there is little doubt that the incident occurred, the UFO myth-making machine has been at work spinning various tales which are often sold as knowledge but fundamentally hinges purely on speculation and belief. Moreover, if more information is available, it is being held by very few people with various agendas. Whether Beaty knows it or not, this project of his is an attempt to democratize the knowledge surrounding this incredible event.
UFO research has never been perfect and it is haunted by a lot of ghosts in its historical and ideological past. However, the UFO community, much the phenomenon it chases, always works at a grassroots level. With every attempt to gain more ‘official’ insight, it slips the proverbial leash and becomes something else entirely.
At the end of the film, any people with information concerning the Nimitz event, or other military UFO sightings, are asked to e-mail Beaty, and that their anonymity can be maintained. While checks and balances will obviously need to be put into place to ensure misinformation and disinformation isn’t disseminated as fact, the testimony of witnesses concerning this event becomes much more difficult to control. This is, curiously, one of the greatest aspects of the UFO community. No one owns the UFO narrative or discourse; some try to corner the market to ensure their ideological interpretation is popularized, but it isn’t long before rifts and tears eat away at them.
This indie UFO documentary is incredibly necessary, not just because it tells a good story and highlights the events which occurred in 2004, but because it attempts to bring much-needed information, data, and testimony out of the darkness and into the light.

We have plenty of experience of that. HAL. That does not undercut the importance of his work and its use in perception. It's not merely a collection of fanciful tales but can be used to establish baselines and why things as simple as memes have persistence in the face of you might deem rational thought. Even the Romans feared going into the Germanic woods.
.Losing a decisive battle to the barbarians led by Arminius a barbarian prince captured annd raised in Roman ways..not just in fighting..he learned their fears and weak points..and used them to destroy legions of Roman Soldiers advantage. Not many are doing these immersive studies at such a detailed level I find quite interesting and of value.

"This fear factor, this war driver is a very strong one and it's been with the species ever since the beginning and it motivated the Great Wall of China. War can be aggressive or defensive, right? So it motivated the Great Wall of China. Our space program was reactive to Russia" ~ Neil deGrasse Tyson SHALOM...Z

Aussie brain-mapper discovers part of brain that lets you play piano
By Liam Mannix 22 November 2018 — 7:01pm
With its 86 billion neurons, the human brain is the most complex thing we know of. And it does not give up its secrets without a fight. That makes achievements like Thursday’s important.
Australian scientists have just announced the discovery of an until-now-unknown region of the brain: an unexplored land, living just under our skulls.
The newly-charted region, which so far has not been seen in other animals, may be responsible for extremely fine motor control – our unique ability to play piano or perform surgery.
It's about the size of a pea and sits at the back of the skull, right at the base of the brain. Its discoverer, NeuRA's brain cartographer Professor George Paxinos, has christened it the Endorestiform Nucleus.
“It found me. It was staring me in the face for 30 years,” he says. Professor Paxinos has spent more than 40 years using a 4B pencil to hand-draw extraordinarily detailed maps of the human brain.
He is one of Australia’s most important scientists and his brain atlases are among the most-cited publications in neuroscience and are used in surgery.
His newly-found region is embedded in a major neural highway that links the spinal cord and the brain. This part of the brain is known to be involved in how we control the movement of our limbs and body.
Generally, human brains look a lot like monkey brains – just bigger. But when Professor Paxinos went looking for his new region in other animals, he couldn’t find it. It seems to be a unique part of the human brain involved in movement control.
What movements can we make that monkeys cannot? Perhaps the Endorestiform Nucleus is linked to our unique ability to move our fingers with great precision, Professor Paxinos speculates.
“Monkeys, you don’t see them playing pianos, do you?” he says.
But Professor Paxinos is just the map-maker – now that he’s found the new region, it is up to other scientists to work out what it does.
He’s found many regions before but this discovery is particularly special, because it brings him full circle. Twenty-eight years ago when he published his first atlas of the brain stem, “I saw something unusual in this area. Some cells that were very striking”.
“But I wasn’t bold enough to say this was a separate structure.”
For the new edition, out soon, he decided to go back to this curious spot and study it intensely for a couple of days. Almost immediately he noticed it really was different – an island of separate cells, with their own unique connections and chemistry.
“If anything I would say how silly I was not to have looked at this in more detail 30 years ago,” he laughs.
To start a new atlas, the team cuts a sample brain horizontally into about 200 ultra-thin slices.
These are then photographed in extremely high resolution, and blown up to 1 metre x 1 metre prints before being placed on tables around a space the size of a lecture hall.
Professor Paxinos can then walk through a giant representation of the brain and trace its neuron highways and backroads.
