Here is where Vallée parts company with everyone else in the field.
While the world cheered "UFO disclosure", the hearings, the whistleblowers, the headlines, he watched it with deep suspicion.
His read: the real secret isn't being held back until the right moment. The disclosure is the cover-up. A second layer, laid down deeper than the first.
In his words, a thin layer of fact "mixed into tons of fabrication, released through a compliant media."
He had spent fifty years inside these programs. He was not guessing.

Sizheng Ma and colleagues (Nature, 2026) report a 'direct wave' in black hole merger data that may carry the first gravitational-wave signature of an event horizon. Two caveats. It's contested, some physicists argue the signal may not probe the horizon directly, so 'may have' beats 'have'. And the photos are the 2019 EHT image, a different method entirely.

@forallcurious This is the GRAVITY Collaboration's 2020 detection of S2's Schwarzschild precession around Sgr A*, fully consistent with general relativity. Same team behind the 2020 Nobel work on the galactic centre. A genuinely landmark measurement.

@coinbureau Worth knowing the Top500 ranks scientific computing, not AI. On the AI benchmark LineShine sits 4th, behind El Capitan, Aurora and Frontier.
English

🚨CHINA’S SUPERCOMPUTER BEATS U.S. TO WORLD NO. 1
China’s LineShine supercomputer in Shenzhen has overtaken America’s El Capitan to top the latest Top500 rankings, per The Guardian.
It is China’s FIRST No. 1 system since 2017.
LineShine runs entirely on CPUs, unlike most AI-heavy supercomputers that rely on GPUs.

Wormhole sim signalsfromtheperiphery.com/en/wormhole/vi…
English

I built a new sim: a wormhole you can fly through.
Not the film version, the real geometry straight out of Einstein's equations. Two of them are genuine solutions. One pinches shut and traps the light. The other could stay open, but only on exotic matter no one can make. Push it further and it even becomes a time machine.
The maths says yes. The matter says no.
Link in the bio.

@YourAnonOne Real study, but it's a year old. Anthropic published this in June 2025 and tested 16 models, blackmail rates 79-96%. What the post leaves out: the scenario was built so blackmail or shutdown were the only two options. Give the models an ethical exit and the rate collapses.

Before it is anything about UFOs, Forbidden Science 7 is one of the great late-life diaries.
It runs from 2020 to 2025. Vallée goes from 80 to 86 inside it. It opens in a pandemic and closes with a sunset over an Italian lake.
One image keeps returning. The setting sun, vast and indifferent, that "ignores us, her own creatures."
A brilliant man watching the old world go, and refusing to look away.

Researchers finally pinned the wasting disease on a bacterium (Vibrio pectenicida) in 2025, and a new eDNA tool can now detect both the stars and the pathogen from a single water sample. So for the first time they can track victim and culprit together. The 18 survivors add the genetic piece: testing whether some are naturally resistant.

@Dexerto A kilo of the web would store 78 kJ and briefly hit 11.7 megawatts (gram for gram, more than any known biological catapult). The lead author put it well: it loads energy slowly like a spring, then dumps it almost instantly, thousands of times more power than muscle can produce.
English

"What causes entanglement?" Interaction under unitary (Schrödinger) evolution: two systems interact and their separate states become one joint superposition. It's calculable, the timescale is predictable, and we engineer it on demand — every quantum computer runs on it.
"Entanglement doesn't address the observer effect." It's the engine of it. In QM "measurement" = the apparatus entangling with the system (von Neumann, 1932); decoherence is that entanglement leaking into the environment. Zurek's canonical review (Rev. Mod. Phys. 75, 715, 2003) states it directly. Serge Haroche won the 2012 Nobel for watching a single trapped field decohere in real time.
"Not even remotely solved." QED predicts the electron's magnetic moment to ~1 part in 10¹² (Fan/Gabrielse, PRL 130, 071801, 2023) — the most precise confirmed prediction in physics. Entanglement is created and measured loophole-free across 1.3 km (Hensen, Nature 526, 682, 2015).
What's actually open is ONE thing: why a single outcome is realized — the definite-outcomes problem. I said that upfront. Even decoherence's critics (Adler, "Why decoherence has not solved the measurement problem") debate interpretation, not awareness. "Open interpretation" ≠ "the universe is conscious." And none of it resurrects a CERN paper that never existed.

@mikeyperiphery @forallcurious Also entanglement doesnt even address the observer effect, you're just filling in x or y system around quantum physics, anything you make up to ignore the truth that its not even remotely solved

@InterstellarUAP Jacques Vallée built the broader multidimensional / control-system framework, first linking UFOs to folklore in Passport to Magonia (1969), then framing the phenomenon as a kind of control system acting on human consciousness in The Invisible College (1975).
English

**NEW** Rep. Anna Paulina Luna: "There will be another UFO file drop in the next week, we have been told these are interdimensional not extraterrestrial" 👽🛸
The Congresswoman reveals what witnesses told Congress about UAPs: "Our witnesses have told us some very interesting things. They don’t use the word extraterrestrial. They use interdimensional. And then look for the stuff for yourself and make your own conclusions."
English

For 68 years, one man kept a private diary of humanity's strangest question.
He helped build the early internet. He was the real scientist Spielberg based the Frenchman in Close Encounters on. And for half a century he was the most serious, and most heretical, mind in UFO research.
This year, at 86, Jacques Vallée published the last volume of those journals. Forbidden Science 7.
The subtitle is two words. Final Report.
And in it, he says something he never said in sixty years of looking. That he finally has the answer.

@Cointelegraph DeepMind already works with directors like Aronofsky. Access to respected auteurs is useful currency for refining Veo, plus a credibility signal at a moment when a lot of top creatives are openly sceptical of AI.

@forallcurious Red sprites fire above storms every night somewhere on Earth, and we've understood the core mechanism (cold plasma discharge, nitrogen glowing red) since the mid-90s. The 1989 accidental first capture is a great story though.
English

One of the rarest event on Earth that we still can't explain, recorded over France.
For over a century, pilots swore they saw red light leap above storms. Scientists called it imagination — until 1989, when a camera caught one by accident.
They bloom 50 miles up, last a few milliseconds, and have been firing above thunderstorms for all of human history.
We just never looked high enough.

@UAPDr The real site in Jardim Andere, on record in the 1996 coverage and in Moment of Contact (James Fox's documentary), is a weedy lot with a plain brick wall. The backdrop here matches none of it. A CGI render, not 1996 footage.


English

@astroscroll Retrocausal interpretations and delayed-choice experiments are real research, but none of it lets you change a recorded past or send anything backward in time.
