Menzel, a Harvard astronomer, naval intelligence officer, and one of the most influential figures in shaping how UFOs would be publicly dismissed.This episode traces Menzel’s rise through academia, his World War II work in cryptography and radar, and how those skills placed him at the heart of Cold War intelligence at the exact moment UFOs entered the public consciousness.From early crash recovery timelines to the foundations of organised skepticism, Part 1 sets the historical groundwork for understanding why the UFO topic looks the way it does today.Check out Ryan's work - <a href="https://unquestionably.substack.com/">https://unquestionably.substack.com/</a>Patreon offer - <a href="https://www.patreon.com/thatufopodcast?coupon=4B0B8">https://www.patreon.com/thatufopodcast?coupon=4B0B8</a>🔥 Support the show & get bonus content:🛸 YouTube Memberships: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHw9Lru3EcpRQyM7AI5TlmA/join">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHw9Lru3EcpRQyM7AI5TlmA/join</a>🛸 Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/c/ThatUFOPodcast">https://www.patreon.com/c/ThatUFOPodcast</a>🛸 Apple Podcasts: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/that-ufo-podcast/id1511121397">https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/that-ufo-podcast/id1511121397</a>🛸 Spotify: <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/7wnXUAQ3vwdsX1BoyaEvjZ">https://open.spotify.com/show/7wnXUAQ3vwdsX1BoyaEvjZ</a>🛸 Buy Me a Coffee: <a href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ThatUFOPodcast">https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ThatUFOPodcast</a>📲 Connect with the show:Twitter: @UFOUAPAMFacebook, Instagram & YouTube: That UFO PodcastYouTube: <a href="https://youtube.com/c/ThatUFOPodcast">https://youtube.com/c/ThatUFOPodcast</a>Email: UFOUAPAM@gmail.comAll links: <a href="https://linktr.ee/ufouapam">https://linktr.ee/ufouapam</a>Official Website: <a href="https://ThatUFOPodcast.com">https://ThatUFOPodcast.com</a>👍 Don’t forget to subscribe, like & leave a review, it really helps!Thanks for listening,Andy</div>
