Just when you think you’re the first to ever have a new idea, someone else has beat you to it. When I have one of those thoughts I’ll check the internet and see if anyone has preceded me, no different this time. Perhaps there’s more than just one with similar idea so I’ll give the person in this instance kudos. Besides he could be as wrong as people saying the Titanic was unsinkable. Makes it easier to admit having also thought along same lines.

Got the idea when I was moving my cursor around on the computer monitor screen. Noticed I could easily move it anywhere on the 2D screen and very quickly. Realizing it can be maneuvered so, my thought turned to the theory of our universe being a computer simulation and why couldn’t UFOs simply be cursors, from another dimension of course. Anyways, found this on Quora….

UFO Cursor Theory

Discussion
So I have an idea / theory for what I believe UFOs / UAPs might be. This is just something I've been mulling over recently while reading all your amazing posts.

My idea is based on the behaviour of things like Tic Tacs and the most common thing said about UFO/UAP - and that is - they defied the laws of physics

Now the laws of physics are hard wired to our universe, so to break them makes no sense, unless you exist OUTSIDE of that space time. Now this may feel adjacent to simulation theory, but what if UFOs are not extraterrestrials, but a higher dimensional being, maybe even future humans, who want to understand specific moments in our development. The way to do it would be to exist in a higher dimension and then view any moment in space time using a probe. Maybe those probes, due to how they exist outside our universe and its laws, can move in any way shape or form, without being tied to it.

So just like we go on the Internet and interact with a 2D space using a cursor, even though we are 3D, I can imagine UAPs could be 4D and higher beings interacting with our 3D space.

In this era, any [legit] supernatural or paranormal belief slash event (that doesn't deceptively involve extraterrestrial gadgetry) pretty much does have to entail simulation theory in order to be possible.

But this doesn't mean the world consists of information processing residing in a computer or other intelligence-developed technology. For instance, the dreams of a brain arise from the operations of a naturally evolved substrate. The "prior-in-rank" level generating what we experience as this world could consist of ontological affairs that we can't even imagine in our space/time constrained cognitive system. Inhabited by similarly incomprehensible entities.

But if we or AI ever do engineer a satisfactorily successful artificial reality, then that "proof" and ensuing technological reproduction of such consequently explodes the statistical possibility of ourselves residing in one. And if it's an "ancestor simulation", then we may indeed be a repeat of the nature of that higher stratum that is generating us. Rather than the radically different, original inconceivable or transcendent first provenance above.

Departing into the traditional idea of higher dimensions (sans the simulation territory)...

It could also be like the legs of a chair entering the space of a 2D world, where the chair is tilted so that a slice of only one leg enters and appears to be a UFO at a specific location. But then the chair is tilted again so that a slice of a different leg suddenly appears a considerable distance away. It illusorily appears that the same 2D UFO rapidly moved or teleported to a new spot, but it's actually separate parts of the same higher dimensional object.

Of course, in our 3D version, the 4D intruder would not be something equivalent to a mundane chair... But a complex configuration that has distantly separated multiple appendages or features of itself that resemble each other and appear to be the same speedy or teleporting object, to human observers.

A problem, however, is that it would seem unlikely that the 4D intruder would be constituted of the same kind of matter as in our universe. IOW, light or electromagnetic radiation would not interact with it, so that various parts of it could be seen/detected in a "separated" and any other manner slash appearance.

Thus, rewinding back to "simulation" (whether involving higher dimensional relationships or not) being more feasible. Since the rules of how this world works could be bypassed by the programming level (i.e., making "magic" possible, as in fantasy video games).

I like the plasma UFO theory, myself.

Interesting article SS! 3D space or actually air acting like the "screen" on which the 3D plasma images are projected via laser. This explains not only the seeming massless property and incredible speed of uaps but also the fact that they are almost always silent, even when breaking the sound barrier. A plasma pixeled phantom image could also morph into different shapes and vanish and reappear somewhere else just as uaps are observed to do. The only difference with uaps though is the lack of any projector or laser beam creating that image in space. Where for instance was the projector for the tic tac uaps? These "phantoms" seem to be discrete free-floating objects in themselves, untethered to any projecting beam. They are also, sometimes, detected on radar, suggesting they have reflective solidity unlike the 3D plasma images.

There's a patent filed by the US Department of Navy. It would explain some of the unusual characteristics of the sightings. For example, the sudden appearance and disappearance of the UFOs could be explained by the laser system being turned on and off, and the lack of visible means of propulsion could be explained by the fact that the plasma filaments were being generated by the laser rather than by a traditional engine.
