Reality Check Rewind: Jacques Vallée on Forbidden Science 7, 'Gilbert' and Haynesville

Ross Coulthart interviews Jacques Vallée about Forbidden Science 7, the final volume of his diaries (2020 to 2025). Vallée says he is joining a re-established French government advisory board, that the Capella data warehouse of about 260,000 cases was left with up to 95% false positives when BAASS funding stopped, and that he was never debriefed from his BAASS clearance. He relays an account from a remote viewer he calls Gilbert of hours of light-based communication with a living, volunteer non-human entity in a lab inside a small mountain about 20 years ago, and says he once came face to face with a similar entity himself. He accepts recovered non-human craft, relays Eric Davis on a waived unacknowledged SAP, says an Academy member told him the National Academy of Sciences was warned off UFOs, and is reopening the 1966 Haynesville case with bark samples he holds.
