Very sad. He was a champion for UAP!
This news is actually almost two weeks old. But respect that they are covering it – Nick Pope is a legend and he really got me taking a serious look at the UFO phenomenon during the UFO Hunters days.
…also an outspoken skeptical, at times, whi was often mis-quoted based on the echo chamber using him.
Really nice guy beyond all that.
He died on April 6 of esophagus cancer fwiw
Solid, respectful treatment from NYT. Good to see.
He was quite a decent guy. Never made outrageous claims, never wore the tin foil. He was solid.
I’m sad that all these good guys are dying before disclosure.
