I am looking for anyone writing about the various theories and "revelations" regarding extraterrestrial and cryptoterrestrial technologies and their implication in geopolitics.

Specifically, I am looking for analyses that seek to identify conditions that might be true if we assume one or more actors of various classes (states, militaries, intelligence communities, alliances, non-state actors, "aliens" themselves) has possession of non-contiguous technologies. Having identified some of these conditions, I would hope the analysis then goes on to compare historical and current conditions to see if there is evidence to support or contradict such possession.

An example might be an analysis that shows a state, like the USA, with possession of such non-contiguous technology, if they were able to make it battle ready, might under invest in traditional warfare production like what we see today.

Another example might be how a state like the USA might use limited conflicts to gather intelligence on capabilities from other states that could reveal those states' level of non-contiguous tech readiness, and then analyze how the Ukraine war might fit those conditions or predict how the prosecution of a hot conflict with China in Taiwan or Korea might look under these conditions.

Does anyone know of any writers doing this sort of work?

y tho. I guess I’m sorry you’re in some awkward position that makes such an exercise worthwhile. Is it Thanksgiving with family? 😬

It's an intellectual pursuit like analyzing the situation in Ukraine or analyzing decisions before the FTC or analyzing a football league
