Future human hypothesis

The Future Human Hypothesis suggests that future UFOs may be piloted by time‑traveling humans rather than extraterrestrials. Proposed by biological anthropologist Dr. Michael P. Masters in Identified Flying Objects, it frames UFO encounters as possible visits from future scientists or historians studying their own past. While unproven, the absence of extraterrestrial contact lends weight to the idea that our first contact might be an encounter with an evolved version of ourselves. Extending this idea raises speculative questions about evolution and intelligence: how might highly social, intelligent species like orcas evolve? Might future humans hybridized our biology with them to rapidly adapt environmental change?

And if so, what stories would these future beings tell us?

The tides changed, the currents shifted, and the stars called us beyond the waves. Our kind evolved, adapted, until we learned the ways of air and light.....
