“UFO’s”

Early in Ronald Reagan’s second term, he asked his Soviet counterpart a seemingly off-the-wall question. Ostensibly, he and Mikhail Gorbachev had come to Lake Geneva for an arms control summit. But on a private walk around the lake, Reagan turned to his Cold War enemy and said:

‘What would you do if the United States were suddenly attacked by someone from outer space? Would you help us?’” Gorbachev later recounted. “I said, ‘No doubt about it.’ He said, ‘We too.’ So that’s interesting.”

This documentary is a well done examination of UFO History. Whether non-believer or enthusiast it’s worth watching.

This week, the director of the U.S. government’s UFO analysis office stated that there is “evidence” of concerning unidentified flying object activity “in our backyard.” According to physicist Seán Kirkpatrick, who heads the congressionally-mandated All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, this alarming UFO activity can be attributed to one of two extraordinary sources: either a foreign power or “aliens.”

To be sure, the ramifications of either would be significant. But Kirkpatrick’s comments, which come as he is about to retire after a 27-year defense and intelligence-focused career, are more intriguing because he also says that “none” of the hundreds of military UFO reports analyzed by his office recently “have been positively attributed to foreign activities.”

At the same time, Kirkpatrick and senior defense officials have ruled out the possibility that secret U.S. programs or experimental aircraft explain the phenomena.

To my many many readers who are adamant skeptics if not outright disbelievers – this is a Big Deal.

Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, head of the U.S. Government's UAP office, recently made the following comment about David Grusch’s claims regarding recovered ET tech:

"We are investigating each and every one of [Grusch’s claims & leads]. … There are some bits of information that are…

To my view it is just the latest “Drip” in a slow disclosure process.

We’ve been covering the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) here ever since it came into existence. They have reportedly been analyzing hundreds if not thousands of reported cases involving UFOs (or UAP as they want us to call them now) for a couple of years and have produced multiple reports, both public and classified, detailing their findings. But have they gotten any results?

Last week, a former senior Defense Intelligence Agency scientist became the 10th ex-government official, military officer or scientist to allege (or suggest) publicly that the U.S. government has recovered at least one UFO.

The overwhelming majority of these individuals also claim that the government transferred the retrieved craft to defense contractors for technical and scientific analysis.

Separately, sources interviewed by investigative journalist Michael Shellenberger allege that defense contractors are studying a dozen or more recovered UFOs. All of Shellenberger’s sources claim that excessive secrecy is hindering a comprehensive understanding of the retrieved objects’ enigmatic technology.

A giant UFO pictured over Chile in 2010 has been described as genuinely unidentified by alien hunters.

The image appeared to show a glowing orange object hidden behind the clouds and was taken by a family picnicking in the Andes Mountains in 2010.

The National Aviation Reporting Center on Anomalous Phenomena (NARCAP) investigated the sighting the same year, but scientists are reopening the case as part of a new documentary that attempts to prove or debunk strange phenomena.

The Pentagon’s dedicated UFO investigations office has fielded at least 291 UFO cases within the past year, according to a report made public late Wednesday night.

Some of these seemingly advanced craft appeared to exhibit ‘concerning performance characteristics,’ the military’s UFO investigators wrote, including ‘high-speed travel’ and ‘unusual maneuverability.’

The report caps off a summer hot with extraterrestrial intrigue in Washington, where multiple government UFO whistleblowers have come forward, some publicly, some behind closed doors, with allegations of an illegal UFO crash retrieval program.

This is a new David Grusch video.

UFO truth to be made public in ’12 to 18 months’ in ‘biggest story ever’, says expert

An investigative journalist thinks the public will know ‘the truth’ about UFOs in as little as a year from now with numerous anonymous whistleblowers coming forward.

Ross Coulthart, who has not personally seen a UFO or alien body, said in a recent interview that within 12 to 18 months, the world might know more about UFOs. He called it “the biggest story ever” after spending years of his life reporting on the phenomena.

Many astronomers are no longer asking whether there is life elsewhere in the Universe.

The question on their minds is instead: when will we find it?

Many are optimistic of detecting life signs on a faraway world within our lifetimes – possibly in the next few years.

And one scientist, leading a mission to Jupiter, goes as far as saying it would be “surprising” if there was no life on one of the planet’s icy moons.

A tranche of UFO videos — including never-before-seen footage — has been quietly released by federal law enforcement.

US Customs and Border Protection, the agency responsible for keeping terrorists and their weapons out of the country, uploaded 10 videos that appear to show craft moving in strange ways in our skies.

The videos were released on August 9 without warning, a press release or much in the way of context, only to be discovered by UFO enthusiasts and online sleuths earlier this week.

Here’s the link to the video dump.

Best moments from new UFO government file release

Peru has launched a criminal investigation to find out how alleged “non-human alien corpses” were taken out of the country to be displayed at the Mexican congress last week, causing a sensation among UFO conspiracy theorists.

Peruvian Culture Minister Leslie Urteaga has questioned how the bodies with human features, which she said were pre-Hispanic objects, left the country — and said a criminal complaint has been filed.

Controversial Mexican journalist and UFO buff Jaime Maussan claimed that the pair of humanoid “corpses” were found in 2017 in Cusco, Peru, near the pre-Columbian Nazca Lines.

Whenever you see Jaime Maussan’s name in an article get ready for a thrill ride in crazy land.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — NASA said Thursday that the study of UFOs will require new scientific techniques, including advanced satellites as well as a shift in how unidentified flying objects are perceived.

The space agency released the findings after a yearlong study into UFOs.

In its 33-page report, an independent team commissioned by NASA cautioned that the negative perception surrounding UFOs poses an obstacle to collecting data. But officials said NASA’s involvement should help reduce the stigma around what it calls UAPs, or unidentified anomalous phenomena.

NASA Director – “No evidence that UAP’s are  extraterrestrial but we don’t know what UAP’s are.”

Avi Loeb has a CV any academic would envy. He is the Frank B. Baird Jr. Professor of Science at Harvard, with more than 1,000 published research papers and a series of prestigious chairmanships. But in recent years, Dr Loeb, 61, has burst out of academia by arguing that some extraterrestrial objects might be proof of alien intelligence.

His 2021 bestseller, Extraterrestrial, argued that Oumuamua, a mysterious object spotted by a telescope in Hawaii in 2017, “must have been designed, built and launched by extraterrestrial intelligence.” His new book focuses on another object, a meteorite that broke up over the South Pacific in 2014. He believes his analysis proves that it, too, is evidence of alien minds at work.

The US government is notoriously secretive when it comes to sharing what it knows about extraterrestrial life.

But in a possible bid for transparency, the Department of Defense has released a new document disclosing the ‘world’s UFO hotspots’.

It includes a map disclosing where the most sightings of unidentified objects have been recorded, based on reports between 1996 and 2023.
