Following along with some of the comments and Loeb's decision to ignore past events leads me to believe maybe the Phenomena is leading us all down a rabbit hole. I don't necessarily buy the ET hypothesis. If they're from some other reality or can traverse time as well perhaps this is a long game effort to further muddy the waters and the collective human position. Maybe It decided to show itself in order to gain more public attention. Now that there's a spotlight on the issue and prominent scientist involved it'll just disappear for a decade or two. They'll be all these studies that show nothing. It may also decide to manifest itself in other, less tangible (or believable) ways leading to more confusion. Just a thought......

Hi Billy, thanks for heads up. Re health effects, this was recommended for study by a panel of scientists and UFO researchers organized by Prof. Peter Sturrock of Stanford Uni. in 1998 (I guess you'll know of this anyway!). Nothing developed from this officially AFAIK but I guess now it is. He wrote "The UFO Enigma" from this meeting. Great read. Press release here.

I think it's right Avi Loeb does things with a clean break, focusing solely on measured data from his team's brand new instruments. He's aiming for peer-reviewed and published work but I'm guessing will have a nod to historical issues in any intro. to a paper (or papers). It'll be a tough enough sell to get through the refereeing process, to say the least, and he knows this.
