The places where our models break down are the places where we learn the most about what those models actually are.
And right now, it feels like the entire world is standing at the edge of that kind of breakdown—without a clear map for what comes next.
The goal isn’t to replace one certainty with another. It’s to build something more durable: tools for navigating uncertainty, for distinguishing signal from noise, and for asking better questions.

🌓 We all think we know the Moon. But what if that familiarity is an illusion?
Too big. Too close. Too perfect. Scientists can’t fully explain where it came from—or why it’s so essential to life.
This isn’t just fringe conspiracy talk. Once you start digging into the science, the strangeness becomes undeniable.

In many ways, our trip down the rabbit hole has been leading us, inevitably, to this episode. It’s in this episode that we reach a decisive inflection point. Nothing will be the same after this—maybe not even you.
Over the previous 18 episodes, I have done my best to make the case, not only that the UFO phenomenon is real, but that the complexity, ubiquity, and unintelligibility of the phenomenon are so great as to suggest that many of our most fundamental assumptions about the nature of reality itself may be incorrect.
This episode is my closing argument in the case of The Phenomenon vs. Consensus Reality. And when it’s done, I hope that you’ll agree with me that it’s time to burn it all down. Or at the very least, I hope you’ll agree that perhaps it’s time to consider some new models of reality that have the potential to reintroduce meaning and intelligibility into our broken world where impossible things won’t stop happening.
In this episode, we’ll begin by talking about what’s broken with our current models including the Big Bang, the hard problem of consciousness, quantum mechanics, and space-time. And we begin to ask, what do our broken models suggest about the nature of the cave that we find ourselves in? And what does all of this have to do with UFOs?

In this episode, we pick up with Tom Delonge where we left off in Part 1 — with the stunning and unlikely events that led to the formation of the To The Stars Academy of Arts & Sciences and the ultimately to the Pentagon’s admission that UFOs are real.
So what happened to TTSA? What are the original TTSA members (including Lou Elizondo, Chris Mellon, Jim Semivan, Hal Puthoff, and Steve Justice) doing now? In this episode we’ll get an update.
We’ll also explore why it is, that despite his astonishing success and ultimate vindication that Tom Delonge continues to be a controversial figure in the UFO community.
And finally, we’ll get to the part that everyone has been waiting for — what does Tom Delonge believe about the UFO phenomenon? It’s been confirmed that Delonge’s advisors within the government weren’t just real, but they are the very people who would know what secrets the government might be hiding about UFOs. So with this insider knowledge and guidance, one has to assume that what Delonge says publicly about his beliefs surrounding the phenomena has been shaped significantly by his exposure to and briefings by these individuals.
Which is exactly why what Tom Delonge has to say about UFOs is so shocking. You won’t want to miss this one.

🌗 Some scientists argue it doesn’t meet the definition. It’s too big relative to Earth. Its gravitational pull is strong enough to tug back on us.
And its orbital path? It doesn’t neatly circle Earth—it moves in near-perfect synchrony with us around the Sun.
Isaac Asimov even called it more of a co-planet than a satellite. Maybe it’s time to rethink what the Moon really is.

Today I’m bringing you something really special. A few weeks ago, Dr. Diana Walsh Pasulka reached out to connect me with someone she thought I might be interested in interviewing for the podcast. Her name is Dr. Iya Whiteley and she is a space psychologist who is featured in Diana’s upcoming book due out in November entitled, Encounters: Experiences with Nonhuman Intelligences.
Given the respect that I have for Diana and her work, her recommendation alone would have been enough for me to say yes. But the more she shared with me about Dr. Whiteley and her work, it became clear to me that this was an interview that I absolutely had to do.
This conversation touched me deeply, and I hope it speaks to you the way that it spoke to me.
MEET DR. IYA WHITELEY
Dr. Iya Whiteley is a training developer for Astronauts with a background in Clinical Psychology and Cognitive Engineering. She leverages her skills and expertise, combined with her own insights and experiences as a pilot, skydiver, and scuba diver, to design both equipment and training programmes to improve the performance of highly trained professionals in extreme environments, including military pilots and astronauts.
Iya has also worked at the European Astronaut Centre (European Space Agency) in Cologne, Germany and now collaborates with NASA and the Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Centre in Star City, Russia.
Since having her own children, Iya has been using her unique skillset to work on laying the groundwork for a universal “Earth language”. To this end, she has designed high contrast black and white visual books for newborns to tap into their full developmental potential and give them the best possible start on our unique planet Earth.
MEET DR. DIANA WALSH PASULKA
Dr. Diana Walsh Pasulka is a professor of religious studies and Chair of the Department of Philosophy and Religion at the University of North Carolina, Wilmington. She holds a bachelor’s from UC Davis, a master’s from Berkeley, and a Ph.D. from Syracuse University. She is the author of Heaven Can Wait: Purgatory in Catholic Devotional and Popular Culture and American Cosmic: UFOs, Religion, Technology, which we will be discussing in this interview.

![[Cosmosis] UFO Narrative Wars: Weaponized Belief in the Age of Disclosure](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/SF80nv1l32I/mqdefault.jpg "[Cosmosis] UFO Narrative Wars: Weaponized Belief in the Age of Disclosure
In this special episode of Cosmosis, Kelly Chase presents an updated version of her 2025 Contact in the Desert keynote, “UFO Narrative Wars: Weaponized Belief in the Age of Disclosure.” This talk goes beyond the surface of the UFO phenomenon to explore the hidden architecture of secrecy and the sophisticated mechanics of narrative control.
Drawing from deep research into intelligence tradecraft, counterintelligence, and disinformation—along with firsthand interactions with members of the intelligence community—Kelly unpacks how belief itself becomes a weapon in the battle for truth. From psychological operations to perception management, from limited hangouts to the “secret onion” model of secrecy, this episode reveals how our search for answers is being actively shaped, steered, and contained.
But this isn’t a story about villains. It’s a call to responsibility. Kelly challenges listeners to reclaim their intellectual sovereignty, resist easy answers, and build discernment in an information landscape designed to confuse. Whether youre a skeptic, experiencer, journalist, or just UFO-curious, this talk will change how you see not just the phenomenon—but the stories we tell about it.
