A gigantic new ICBM will take US nuclear missiles out of the Cold War-era but add 21st-century risks::A new nuclear missile is coming, a gigantic ICBM called the Sentinel. It marks the largest cultural shift in 60 years in the land leg of the Air Force’s nuclear missile mission.

    I read through the link, both the details on the air forces vehicle plans and the ‘encounter’ later.

    This one is odd but I do still wonder what the feasible explanations of this may be.

    The smell of sulphur can be cause by many things, including burning vulcanised rubber or geological activety. The radiation might be explainable, but I have no indication of what the readings were (background and of the area/objects/burns), which makes it more hard to make any suggestions. Though his injuries did immediately make me think radiation exposure…

    Lastly, the molten metal recovered from the site.

    What is the composition of the metal? And if they say they pried it from a crack in the rock, the shape that it has taken is too perfect… The angle on each bend is near identical, and the length of each straight is once again identical (something screams not pulled from a natural crack in rock to me).

    Nothing concrete can be explained by this, but it is intriguing…

      The metal from the rock in the Falcon Lake incident was a piece of scrap metal that was already on the rock when the alleged craft landed on it, and partially melted it into some cracks in the rock.

      The scrap metal was definitely human scrap metal, nothing special. But it was partially melted into the rock and irradiated.

      I also find it intriguing that the Falcon Lake craft was apparently very hot, whereas we have modern thermal readings indicating modern UAP are very cold. The UAP of the Nimitz Event is one such example.
