We live in an age where nearly everyone has a smartphone capable of recording video, satellites record the earth, and ground cameras record the sky. You either have to believe there is some massive conspiracy to cover the truth, or you are seeing some mundane phenomenon for which you just don't have the explanation available to you.

Ever take a picture of the beautiful moon with that snazzy phone ? Turns out like crap. I doubt even the best camera phone could catch meaningful video of an object at 20k ft

It's arguable that beings from another world actually exist although we now know that absent almost surely impossible ftl getting here would be a tremendous effort rendering the supposition that explorers are just popping in quite silly. Far from improving the situation positing other dimensions which we have no proof exist, and beings that we have no proof even can exist seems to make the theory much weaker not stro…

Our understanding of physics is still primitive compared to Type I, Type II, and Type III civilizations. Be humble.

There are way too many layers to unpack your statement here, but I will say that if you have an open mind, you'll find most Christians are very pro-science where it's observable and repeatable using empirical methods. Nuclear physics certainly falls in that realm and I have no doubt Quantum mechanics too. Edit: unless you mean it's beyond the scope of his degree, then I can agree with that. Although even though I don…

If you're going to call his use of those terms incorrect, can you explain a craft travelling supersonic without jets or rockets, leaving no emissions, utilizing no airfoils, consistent with our understanding of physics?

well, a meteor could fit your description. but more generally, what he's saying is that the sensors are not infallible, especially when dealing with advanced materials.
