Dr. Kevin Knuth - Relativistic Space Travel - Radio Misterioso

Of the presentations at last month's Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies conference in Huntsville Alabama, the talk that may have made the most people think differently than before was Dr. Kevin Knuth's Constraints on Societies Engaged in Relativistic Interstellar Travel. It certainly impressed Greg Bishop, whose conversation with Dr. Knuth launched even further into informed speculation upon what a relativistic space-traveling society would look like, how nomadic interstellar study groups could arrange meetups, and why it might be pointless for such itinerant scholars to "make friends" with the locals of a given planet. A particularly interesting possibility would be observing evolutionary processes on planets--for example the Earth--by periodic assessments. Some will make the leap that "Ancient Astronauts" could conduct active "experiments"--even fiddling with certain progressing species' mental makeups, or "seeding" a few technological advancements and returning a few thousand or more years later to see the results. Jason Colavito attacks the tv series that may have helped popularize those notions in Taking Stock of "Ancient Aliens" After Ten Years. Jason thinks the series has "shaped the public understanding of archaeology" and "remade the world in its own image with 'truths' that exist independent of facts." We're not so sure the Ancient Aliens tv series is the main factor, particularly when Jason's article cites somewhat contradictory and suspect data. (WM)
