UFOs are in the news again. I have friends that are very excited about these reports saying they will be the gateway where we will discover limitless energy and never have an electric bill again.

I have a different take on them, pessimist that I am. I hear the Pentagon saying further study is required and images of Trump's new space department requiring trillions of dollars in investment for arming space against this new unknown possibility immediately come to mind. After all the Afghan and Iraq wars may no longer be around to support our defense industry and something must be done.
