True that it may be the case whatever the objects were using for propulsion could be explained entirely with known physics, and we just don’t have the explanation yet. However, whether the technology operates within or outside of known physics is not the point. The point is that discounting Pais’ work rules out the possibility that UAP is a classified human technology, which then the only options we are left with for UAP are it is either aliens or time machines. If we accept that the two events (Pais’ work and the UAP) are unrelated, then since UAP cannot be humans it must be something else. This is where the fun begins.

>The point is that discounting Pais’ work rules out the possibility that UAP is a classified human technology, which then the only options we are left with for UAP are it is either aliens or time machines. No it doesn't. The relationship between these patents and UFO footage is being made by web articles and HN posters who believe in the UFO narrative, it's simply inferred because the stories became viral at about the same time. Also, ruling out Pais doesn't rule out the entire rest of the American military industrial complex, which is quite capable of developing cutting edge technology on its own. If we assume for the sake of argument that UAPs are explained by advanced classified technology, Pais and his patent still aren't necessary for humans to be responsible.

Technically that would be possible for the sake of argument.
