Down a rabbit hole:
Warp Drive:
1990 NASA paper by A.C. Holt (major co-authors of his other papers are Eric Davis and Puthoff). Describes a warp drive capable craft using all of the juicy SDI tech such as:
high temperature superconductors, micro-engineered materials, compact superconducting magnets, free-electron lasers, high power, tunable microwave systems (masers), quasicrystals, plasmoid generators.
Author tries to invoke string theory and Higgs particles, but says there’s not enough data about them yet. He calls the warping “Space Time Field Disengagement with Field Bias” (Table 1). The only reference he provides on this is for the fusion reactor needed. That fusion paper looks really interesting from the players involved, here.
As far as I understand these warp drives from the SDI era, they were dealing with altering the virtual particle density by polarizing the vacuum. Get yourself a very strong E/B field, and you’ve now biased space so that the virtual electron-positrons are more likely to pop into existence with greater lifetimes before annihilating. By affecting this lifetime, you can then push off of this biased field by directing the electrons one way and the positrons the other way. Julian Schwinger was key to the development of this SDI era warp tech. I gave an APEC presentation on it here and then a more recent updated version with a bit less jargon here.
Let’s just look at a few of those words in context of when this paper was written.
Quasicrystals were only first created in ’84, with the nobel awarded to those researchers in 2011. Also, Ed Fouche described the use of quasicrystals in the TR-3B. Masers were investigated during the antigravity research craze in the 50s. FELs precipitated the nuclear detonation version of the Excalibur laser, and were used extensively in Friedwardt Winterberg’s SDI fusion designs. Compact superconducting magnets were designed during SDI for energy storage (SMES). These were designed in the SDI program to be able to handle [initially] 0.5GW, only to then surpass the GW barrier in the last year of SDI.
I highly recommend any serious alternative propulsion researchers thoroughly investigate what was achieved by the US during the 80s. This was a time for unlimited spending in R&D and SDI resulted in over 5000 patents made publicly available for the betterment of medicine/computation/optics etc..
It’s worth mentioning the hypothesis that these technologies like nuclear lasers on flying TR-3B spacecraft were being developed to fight outside threats, rather than the Russians.
Author lists some very precise details therein. He mentions only two stars in this paper, Alpha Centari and Epsilon Bootes (114LY away, pg14). So of course I had to look up why he calls out Bootes. He [weakly] claims that star is similar to Sol. So I did some digging on what makes this star special and kept coming up with Reptilians, but the earliest source I could find was 1995.
Aliens:
Then I found a book from 2011 that talks about Tesla noticing radio signals from Epsilon Bootes. Cross-referenced that with a NASA(-ish) paper saying similar ‘off-world signals’ discovered by Tesla that he thought were coming from Mars.
Lastly, here’s a TIME magazine article for an off-world signal that was discovered in 1973. Signal was claiming to be coming from an alien satellite from Epsilon Bootes that was orbiting the moon and was saying that the satellite was 11,000yrs old. A much better written version told by the guy who found the signal (2nd link) where he specifically states it wasn’t coming from the ‘Black Knight’ satellite and that he’d been directed where to look for these signals by a Stanford Professor. Here’s a 1hr long interview with the guy who discovered the message, Duncan Lunan, lots more info there:

I noticed Arcturus (Tall Whites star from Charles Hall) mentioned whenever I tried looking up Bootes, but that star is only 37LY away and Holt specifically mentions the Epsilon Bootes star at 114LY. From the different Alien docs I could find, it sounds like a bunch of different species might be located in that cluster, reptilians/tall whites/nordics.
Additionally, a bit more digging today reveals that Epsilon Bootes is actually about 200LY away, not 114LY, and it’s a binary system that’s quite different than Sol. So Holt may have been way off (either accidently or on purpose?)
The star which happens to be most similar to Sol in the Bootes cluster is Muphrid (Eta Bootes) at 37LY away, which is imperceptibly close to Arcturus. As far as I recall, Charles Hall’s description of pointing at Arcturus for the Tall White’s star resulted in the Teacher saying that it wasn’t their star but it was very close. This makes it sound like the Tall White’s star is more likely Eta Bootes.

And NASA-ish paper saying similar off-world signals noted by Tesla:

And lastly, one of the sources I found saying the Reptilians are from Bootes (less legit looking though tbh):
