🛸 Unfinished Objects & Unanswered Questions

The last breath of May settled strangely over McMinnville, Oregon—a town that doesn’t just believe in UFOs, it hosts them like honored guests. While tourists and locals had already toasted the 1950 Trent photos at the annual UFO Festival weeks earlier, a quieter, more cerebral encounter unfolded just days later: the Unfinished Object Challenge Retreat.

Held from May 27 through May 31, this wasn’t your usual tinfoil-hat gathering. Instead, it drew a different breed—engineers with gear bags, UFOlogists with laptops, and dreamers who had swapped conspiracy rants for custom sky-mapping arrays. Think less campfire stories, more dry-erase boards and laser levels. 🛰️

Attendees field-tested homemade electromagnetic sensors, traded infrared footage like baseball cards, and ran simulations to decode everything from propulsion anomalies to consciousness-linked aerial phenomena. One guy swore his detection rig could hear “time folding.” No one laughed. In fact, a few people asked for his schematics.

There were no mass sightings, no orbs, no tractor beams—only strange readings, radio quiet spots, and plenty of midnight glances upward. The phrase unfinished object wasn’t a glitch—it was the mission. A reminder that this thing we call UFO research is still in alpha. Raw. Ongoing. Undecoded.

🌀 Ghosts of the Discs
You could still feel them here—the Trents’ legendary photos hovering like invisible guests. Out near the fields where that saucer was snapped 75 years ago, attendees wandered out with flashlights and notebooks. Not to summon anything, but to listen. To remember that in McMinnville, the sky always keeps a secret or two in reserve.
