What would you consider to be unequivocally convincing?If you have a propensity to be subjectively skeptical of anything even if I showed you a very convincing photo or video that passed the authenticity test, you can always come up with possible ways that you believe that someone might have made a fraudulent document.I personally think that it’s normal to think firstly if any unusual air craft or object that looks artificially constructed, is something that is a product of mankind’s making. I am totally ok with looking at all natural possibilities within reason. The problem that I have is when people’s minds are so closed, that they cannot open their imaginative scope to include all possibilities as opposed to only those that we know.This large flying disc was photograph in Greenbay, Wisconsin by Mr. Jack Nethering. UFO Over Green Bay, Wisconsin - The Black Vault Case Files Many will look at this image and get upset because they’d instantly assume that it’s an elaborate hoax. And yet, it may very well be the real thing.How about this portrait allegedly the real deal by a former government official? I believe that I read somewhere that someone believed that this was some sort of a hoax made with dead plucked chicken. That’s what I call a Pelicanist theory. Pelicanist dictionary definition | pelicanist definedAlledged leaked foreign government video that predate the digital era:It’s ok to be objectively skeptical and question what you’re looking at. But some organized skeptics and mainstream scientists take their theories to the realm of the absolutely insulting and ridiculous just because such theories are tangible.I’m not claiming that what I’ve presented to be absolutely factual and convincing to all. But there are intriguing documents out there. And to really answer this question, you’d have to do your in-depth due diligence in researching the wide range of UFO/alien photo and video evidence on the archives. Unless you’ve done this, you cannot make the statement that there’s never been even one unequivocally convincing photo/video of a UFO/alien taken.As an addendum, here’s a related answer to a somewhat similar question. Eli Elyzium's answer to Why are reports of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) sightings so rare today now that digital cameras are instantly available on smart phones?

I am going to try to get past the mythology and nonsense and get you the facts.Let’s begin with how the first oil well was constructed in 1848. Simply a steam powered drilling machine constructed a round hole about 60 feet deep. This machine was targeting a layer known to have oil. The oil seeped up into the creek nearby and the men estimated the slope of the rocks where the oil came up and they drilled deep inside the ground and when they intercepted the rocks they hit oil coming out in large quantities. The hole was basically a small round hole. The amount of the oil that could come out was limited by the surface were the oil leaked out and the size of the hole. Holes were drilled all over. Very soon the pressure of oil began to drop off and the drilling moved deeper and people began to look for better ways to get the oil.By the 1860’s men drilling oil wells had already begun dropping black powder bombs into the bottom of the wells to shatter up the rock and allow more oil to get out. This practice by the 1860’s to 1870’s found Nitroglycerin replacing black powder only because it was more powerful and dynamite was not likely damaged under water. This is written up in “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court” by Mark Twain in the 1870’s. It was a well known process by this time. His story discusses using such a bomb to open up a water well.By 1900 the blasting of oil wells was almost a universal practice. The bombs got very powerful weighing hundreds of pounds. Fancier explosives were developed in the 1930’s and 1940’s. By 1960’s in the “Atoms for Peace” program 4 natural gas wells were blasted with Atomic Bombs for fracturing the rock for collection of natural gas from “tight shale”.It was very successful in getting the gas but the radioactive features made use of the gas unsafe.When the oil business moved into the area of Mobile Bay and South Louisiana in a big way in the 1970’s and early 1980’s the wells they drilled became extremely long and amazingly large. A typical such well was somewhere between 5 and 7 miles long and also was 62 inches in diameter. They ran into a serious problem. The rocks were moving. The rocks were moving about 5′ every decade. A big well would get pinched off in just a decade. At this time they fell back on a discovery accidentally made in Texas in the 1900–1920 period. One oil man was drilling deeper and deeper he thought. Then his drill bit surfaced some distance away. This technology and been studied and become directional drilling. The oil industry in Mobile Bay used this technology to punch a well down and angle it through the moving rocks so much that this slide of 5′ a decade would not matter for 50 years or so. In doing so they learned that if they drilled along this slide they also got lots more gas and oil.What had happened was that they now had miles of surface area on their well. This was a bonanza. It was one of the biggest discoveries of oil and natural gas on earth. Then they started punching lots of holes along this geologic trend.Then the oil men about the same time began to experiment with a new method. They would take water under high pressure very high pressure to pry apart the rocks and make a well not only a mile long but maybe a quarter of a mile wide. This would allow the oil to flow more easily. Then they found the rocks resealed after the water so they tried adding sand and some chemicals. This relied on 3-D seismic studies of the rock and directional drilling. Today they can map out the rocks and drill very precisely were they want to go.By the 2005 time frame the basic processes for this were pretty well worked out. The chemical, sand, water mixes were pretty much figured out. I am sure there have been continual refinements. The big problem was that in order to bring the well into production they had to remove the water mixture from the well before the oil came out. There was oil in this mix now. They had to dispose of the water somewhere. Their solution was to drill a disposal well to bury this deep in the earth. These are injection wells. Today the oil or gas wells are even blasted with explosive shaped charges to guide the fracking fluids. It sort of has gone full circle.Now that you have the history and processes, here comes the problems and what has been found. The first problem was that these wells produced massive amounts of oil but fairly quickly the oil displaced the sand and the wells stopped producing and had to be fracked again. This was expensive. This problem remained until the oil industry had a major downturn about 2014. As this happened the owners of wells put in tiny restricting holes into the wells to keep the pressure up. This was simply to preserve the wells until the price came up. Instead it solved the problem with the wells dropping off and needing re-fracking. Now the wells stayed fixed.In the period of about 2008/2009 there began to be lots of reports of contamination in shallow water wells with natural gas and more.This mostly happened in the Pennsylvania oil/gas fields.The depth of the fracked wells was about 700 to 1900 feet deep. Now days much deeper wells are drilled. The water wells were typically less than 300 feet deep. Clearly in some locations the fracking had stressed the strata of the rock and cracked it making paths for the hydrocarbons to rise. The industry has made lots of efforts to call persons who complained liars but there is little doubt that the problems are real and the oil industry sort of quietly admitted the problem when they began supplying people trucked drinking water etc. These problems were at discrete locations. That is actually they were quite rare. These problems have appeared occasionally in other locations. Most companies have gotten the hint and are fixing their wells much better.In Arkansas in 2008 there began to appear another problem. In the region north and west of Little Rock in a natural gas development the people began to complain that there were earthquakes. Lots of earthquakes. While they were not very strong the whole place seemed to be shaking all the time. In one year there were recorded over 1,100 earthquakes and the State of Arkansas shut down further efforts and the earthquakes stopped. The industry denied any relationship but this had made it absolutely certain it was so. When you do something and get a problem and stop doing it and the problem goes away you sort of have the cause identified.As developments fanned out across the US in 2010 to 2014 these sites all began shaking with earthquakes. Typically these were minor events but they upset people and worried them. From 2009 to present there have been over 3,000 such earthquakes in oil/gas developments in Oklahoma. Similar numbers in ever such development anywhere they are done have been happening. Then the finger began to point not at the wells themselves but to the waste water disposal wells. In 2016 a massive earthquake occurred at depth and right near the site of an injection well.This was a 5.9 earthquake site. It shook down buildings. It was bad. This is the epicenter and you can see a pad for the injection well on this property that has been closed down by this filming at the pad side. The USGS late to the game finally admitted about 2013 that this was an earthquake risk and then it began to admit that the shaking was a danger to integrity of dams and public safety. At this time the most seismically active area in the US is related to this area where this 2016 earthquake happened. (Red Marker is Earthquake epicenter.)Shortly thereafter the location of nearly all of these earthquakes was identified as being related to injection wells. These waste disposal wells were shoving underground massive quantities of water and other mess. A typical fracking well shoves underground about enough water to cover 10 acres 1 foot deep. Imagine shoving 1,000 times that underground at one well.Now here are the problems with fracking. In order to do it you must clear a site about 420 feet square and bulldoze it very flat. On about 1/2 of the area you construct a pond with walls about 15 feet high and plastic lined. (no leaks) A massive rig is moved in with 2 approximately 8,000 hp diesel engines and a tall derrick. The remainder of the space is used for parking vehicles as water must be trucked in to fill the pond. This involves several hundreds of semi truck loads coming into the site which are amazingly heavy. Once on site they unload bits, pipe, casing, fuel tanks, and much water with sand etc. The holes are drilled cased fracked and the water is removed and trucked for disposal, The rig is moved away and the production equipment such as tanks, pumps, fuels etc are set up. Pipelines are laid to connect nearby wells and carry the oil or gas to market. The damage to the environment is not minor.Typical Fracking pads and production equipment of a producing field in Oklahoma northwest of Oklahoma City. You can see the large areas and the traces of the underground pipelines. In many areas the environment does not recover from these pad constructions for many decades.Otherwise the areas suffer during construction massive damage to roadways that were at best built for farm roads and suddenly are hauling traffic like an interstate Highway for these pads.The fracking industry has gotten much better over the years. Problems are reduced but not gone. Water consumption is another issue. The volumes of water required are simply massive. In many desert type areas this has sucked up large volumes of water for other uses.Down to the question details. Fracking was a problem early on but today most states have pretty much restricted this so that problems are getting rare now. Injection wells are seeing limits on their operations and seismic monitoring so that over injection is halted until the situation stabilizes. Fracking is used in most states. Some states prohibit it.Many other plays have been added since 2010. Fracking is now in nearly every state except New York and Maryland. Deposits in Alabama, Georgia, Missouri, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota are now in massive fracking. Fracking is in California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Oregon and Washington as well. Florida may have fracking but most areas in Florida are prohibited from oil/gas development. Alaska has fracking now as does much of the Coastal Waters of the US. Hawaii does not have any deposits.The map only shows some of the deposits. The Gulf of Mexico is full of this. The total number of fracked wells is probably in excess of a million.All oil and gas developments involve continual water withdrawals and typically it is salt water. It is also full of all sorts of oil related pollution.I am not trying to portray this practice as bad or good. It is very important and involves so many issues. I hope I have given you so much data on this process that now supplies more energy for the US and the world than ever thought possible.As I write this the US is at much tension with Iran. I hope it will be resolved without war. If it is, fracking will have been key to this peaceful resolve. Because it has made the US the worlds largest producer of oil and natural gas. The US is now the worlds largest exporter of natural gas and soon will be for oil as well. The safety and security of mankind depends on these energy supplies. It would be horridly unfair of me to tell you problems with this without telling you that it is also extremely important for the peace, safety and prosperity of all mankind.No process is without risk, hazard or cost. Nothing of so much gain is ever without many complications. In human affairs too many people don’t tell you the whole story. They leave you in fear and dread of only the the problems but do not tell you the benefits. From these wells comes most of the food, prosperity and security of free people in this world. This is expensive, dangerous, heroic and wonderful All are true of it. The men who develop these resources are the most heroic men in all history, daily handling dangers and risks you cannot imagine. Everything in your world depends on these men.The people who sell you on solar and wind power do not tell you that their industry would not even exist without these oil and gas men. They do not tell you the hazards of their industry as well. Before a solar field is even assembled to catch the sun, mountains have been blown apart. The rocks have been drenched with acid. Much pollution has been spread on the earth. NOTHING IS CLEAN. One of the dirtiest mines on earth is a copper mine. A silver/gold mine is even worse. The rare earth for doping solar cells is beyond dirty in processing. That is why it is in China not the USA. Solar cells have silver on them. Magnets for wind power are very dirty in their manufacture, mining and refining. Even aluminum mines and such are very dirty and polluting.

For good reasons, I am answering anonymously. I have lived and worked there for more than three years now, so I can indeed speak to the issue. I have in total spent 20 years working in international development, and by far North Korea is heads and shoulders above any of the ratholes I’ve had to work in The people are super-nice, well-organized, clean, well-groomed. There is zero crime to speak of - I lock neither my flat nor my car. Our children - and theirs - can roam the streets here without fear, day or night.There is zero homelessness. And that’s the deal. North Koreans are born into a cradle-to-grave system, wherein while salaries may be dismal, housing, schooling (through university), healthcare, and a quota of food is provided by government - in exchange for productive work. This work can be white- or blue-collar, depending on a person’s ability and choices as they pass through their school years. Many people - both men and women - opt for the military because (as their Western counterparts) they might not have fared well at school. There is conscription as well, but there are ways around it. However, the huge military the US chooses to talk about is only partly an army - most “soldiers” are construction workers. They may have had a modicum of military training, but they are engaged on a daily basis in building infrastructure and housing.There is NO CHILD LABOUR here, contrary to some bizarre reports I’ve read. There was one, for example, that claimed that children were clearing snow on the road to the country’s sole ski resort. Yeah, well. That road is 300 metres long, from the main highway between the capital, Pyongyang, and Wonsan, the east coast port. And as in every road in the country, workteams are assigned to clear specific stretches. But the main school holidays in the country are from December through February. We can expect kids to have cabin fever after confinement for this long, right? And who among us has not helped their parents with chores, in the house or garden? So why would it be that North Korean kids would not want to help their parents shovel snow? They’re not FORCED to do so, however. In fact, the government does not force anyone (who is not accused of criminality) to do anything - the government’s remit stops at people’s garden wall. When I tell Koreans of the Chinese imposition of spies in the homes of Uighur people in Xinjiang, they’re appalled - and say it could never happen here.Electricity is in short supply, but it’s not for lack of effort. Most is hydroelectric, but as is occurring currently, there are frequent dry spells. So power is limited - and what power there is, is supplied for domestic and industrial use. There is no wastage on street lighting, which is why the country seems dark from space. More and more people are buying their own solar systems for household lighting, which shows that there is money circulating, for private use.Koreans are not aliens. They do want to “fit” into the international system, but on their own terms. They have a historical memory of living in a hostile environment - they’ve been invaded and occupied by Mongolians, Chinese (more than once), and most recently the Japanese - which was an extraordinarily brutal era. They regard America as the latest occupiers of half the peninsula, and South Korea as a vassal state of the US.The country is the size of Wisconsin, with a population of just 25 million or so. It is, in many ways, the mouse that roared. Give it the space to navigate its own future, remove threats to its existence, and it will normalize. The current leader appears to be an innovator, a realistic reformer, but an adherent to his father’s and grandfather’s grand designs for a socialist paradise. Yes, there are labour camps for political prisoners - that’s not in question. But for most Koreans, all they care about is what everybody else around the world cares about - family, the next meal, health, friends, and a civil society.
