En résumé (grâce à un LLM libre auto-hébergé)

  • The author talks about his magazine Ciel et Espace and his interest in scientific topics.
  • He tells about a personal experience with a researcher who refused to meet him because of his work on UFOs.
  • The author mentions meetings with scientists and rejections from them, notably from Blanchard.

Astrophysical Cosmology UFOs Big Bang

I really like the magazine

Ciel et Espace

, which I have subscribed to, because it keeps you informed about non-scientific events. I remember, for example, a sensational cover title: "Gamma Ray Bursts: The Mystery Finally Solved!". I rushed to read it, breathless. In fact, they had just linked a source to one of these famous bursts, in the style of "we don't know what it is, but at least we know where it is". In our time, perhaps we shouldn't be too demanding. In the April 1999 issue, the magazine had consulted some researchers about the Big Bang. I had drawn the chart on the right from that.

Omont

is an old acquaintance. Two or three years ago I had approached him (he was director of the Institute of Astrophysics in Paris) with the aim of giving a seminar there. The answer was negative, very abrupt:

  • Impossible, you have been interested in UFOs.

  • I don't see the connection. It's not about that that I want to talk to you, but about astrophysics.

  • For us, there is a link. It's no.

Well, I insisted. Souriau had written to Omont: "you are looking for new ideas. Petit has some, listen to him". So I was able to give a presentation in front of a collection of faces as closed as oysters. I don't know Spiro or Fayet and I have never had the pleasure of meeting

Blanchard,

a cosmology specialist. It's not for lack of trying. I wrote to him many times (very politely, I must emphasize) proposing that he come give a lecture in his stronghold of Strasbourg, but he never had the courtesy to answer me.

Asked publicly, in front of a full audience, at the Marseille Observatory where he had come to give a lecture on November 6, 2000, Blanchard simply backed down in front of my colleagues, who couldn't believe their ears. Blanchard's written response:

  • Personally, I will not invite you to my lab in Toulouse to give a seminar on your work in cosmology and astrophysics.

Then he gathered his transparencies and packed up, quite calmly.
