Tom DeLonge's Warped UFO Tour - The New Republic

A puzzling aspect of the UFO phenomenon is the role of To The Stars...Academy of Arts & Science in the dissemination of UFO information and excitement. Aided by controversial blockbuster articles in the notoriously, historically staid New York Times, the cadre of scientists, engineers, ex-government intelligence officials--and a rock star--lobbied Congress to mandate yet another UFO studies program and has produced in Unidentified a creditable tv series arguing to take UFOs seriously. Matt Farwell ponders what this all means, providing context and failing to penetrate the conundrum. Jason Colavito unsurprisingly looks with jaundiced eyes both at Farwell's attempt and its subject in "The New Republic" Runs Lengthy Piece Puzzling Over "To the Stars". The article views the organization in the context of possibly misguided but serial efforts to achieve something regarding, or with the assistance of, UFOs. James Carrion employs a Tolkien/Monty Python moment for his UFO Gatekeepers: You Shall Not Pass. Carrion's "multi-decade" informed view: "what truly lies at the core of the UFO phenomenon cannot be equivocally ascertained until the role of those ["run-of-the-mill" government] agencies" that have studied and to an extent mediated the subject is understood. Others of us with "multi-decade experience" may confess humble uncertainty at just what's going on. (WM)
