I've just finished watching a small-time movie for real UFO buffoons. He he, I know. I know. It's obvious to think: look here, this guy is going nuts. Or: yeah, yeah, I also saw a fire-breathing dragon. However, I've been thinking about this story for a long time. And with every book, little movie, testimony on the subject, I wait for it to reveal the Truth to me. And now you're thinking: "nooo damn, he's serious!" Well, I wouldn't say so. I'm not serious, in reality, I let myself be slightly carried away by these adult fairy tales. I very well know that it’s all nonsense, sloppiness, inventions, rubbish, hallucinations, fantasies. I am a serious person, eh! With a serious profession, immersed in a serious society, surrounded by serious people. And I think seriously. Even though at 6 years old, from the back seat of my dad's Fiat 128 with faux leather seats, I saw a big red thing a few hundred meters away in a black moonless night, in absolute silence above a motionless forest, in an uninhabited area. While we were coming home from a dinner with friends. I clearly remember when I placed my face between the two headrests of the seats, near my mom and dad who seemed absolutely calm, and my heart was steady, I believe. I remember as if it were yesterday, lying in bed with eyes wide open towards the ceiling of my room, wondering what the hell I had seen. Boh. In the end, I gave up and never said anything to my parents.
So, apart from this little digression, UFOs are evidently nonsense for paranoid people like Giacobbo and conspiracy-loving directors like Mazzucco. The crazy idea it proposes is that for sixty years, especially the American government, have been doing everything to cover up sightings, ridicule or threaten those who report sightings. Ha ha ha… How can he hope to make me believe in such a big bullshit? He adds direct testimonies from generals, army colonels, radar controllers, policemen, airline pilots, common people. And also acts, documents, and little films. In short, you can't talk about these buffooneries. Aren't we rational people? And have you ever seen ufologists? All people with small eyes staring behind thick glasses, brrrr. How is it ever possible to believe in little green men coming to watch us from metallic discs with domes and flashing colored lights? Boh, maybe, I answer myself, sometimes that little bit of child that remains in us wants to soar high and meet someone who flies high with him. Up, in the blue. Where there are no noises. Above the clouds. In dark nights above swaying wheat fields. Sometimes, I must be honest, this science, which seems to have become a kind of New Dogma, oppresses me. It confines me too much within narrow bounds which we are evidently not made to respect. Sometimes, hearing certain big scientists makes me short of breath. They say everything is explained and if it’s not, it will be. Oh my, it’s like hearing some pope during the period of obscurantism.
Why all this confidence in one's own means? It cannot be denied. There is a tension towards something different from the texts of Physics, Mathematics, Science. Is it possible that everything is written there? Is it possible that we were “put” here on this little colorful planet only to stay the time of a breath and die here to make new sprouts grow on our ashes? Possible that, possible… And yes, you’ll say again. It’s possible. That’s all. Man wants to explain everything. Everything must fit within scientific laws. And if it doesn’t, they force it in. Is the universe infinite? What are you saying! It’s finite, think… “It wraps around” itself. Is there someone in cosmic space? Probabilities say yes but it’s impossible for someone to have come here, it would take light years to reach us from the nearest star. The various scientific theories don’t match? Here’s the fascinating String Theory. The Theory of… Everything. Even. But how, how can they be so sure? I would add to all the Laws of man this little phrase “...as far as we know at this moment in history.” There, it would already be better. Now we think it is this way, but a few hundred years ago we thought the Earth was flat. In summary, don’t let yourselves be tricked: UFOs don’t exist.

- “Imagination is more important than knowledge.”
- “Anyone who can no longer feel wonder and amazement is as good as dead and his eyes are blinded.”
- “The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all true science.”
