Something extraordinary happened at the Republican Party primaries debate. Fox News anchor Martha MacCallum asked former NJ Governor Chris Christie if he would ‘level with the American people on what the government knows about UFOs’. Christie seemed stunned and laughed it off. She didn’t budge, commenting that it has been discussed publicly in Congress and that reports of UFO sightings ‘seem to have increased’ of late. He fumbled through his answer and guaranteed that he ‘would level with the American people on all issues’.
Harvard physicist criticised by peers for ‘over-hyped’ claims of interstellar spacecraft though some find his ideas ‘credible’
It would be among the most extraordinary discoveries in scientific history: fragments of an alien spacecraft from another Solar System that landed on Earth.
This week Harvard astrophysicist Professor Avi Loeb said he may have made just such a find after retrieving metallic objects from the seabed where a meteorite crashed into the Pacific Ocean near Papua New Guinea in 2014.
His claim has been met with disbelief from other scientists who have offered alternative yet still extraordinary explanations for the metal spherules.

The Defense Department on Thursday unveiled a website that’s intended to serve as a clearinghouse for declassified information about unidentified aerial phenomena.
The site, which is being billed as a “one-stop shop” for publicly available records about UFOs, is expected to shed light on the work of an office Congress created last year that coordinates efforts across federal agencies to detect and identify what the Pentagon officially refers to as unidentified anomalous phenomena, or UAPs.
Professor Avi Loeb says unusual meteoroid, named IM1, left interstellar metals in the Pacific Ocean
A controversial Harvard astrophysicist claims to have found material that “originated from outside the solar system” for the first time in history.
Professor Avi Loeb recovered fragments from the Pacific Ocean in June to determine whether they could prove an extraterrestrial artefact crashed there in 2014.
He has now provoked condemnation from peers for claiming that an early analysis suggests the deep sea discovery may have an “extraterrestrial” origin and could be proof of higher intelligence.
On Oct. 19, 2017, a telescope in Maui detected something that had entered our solar system from elsewhere in the galaxy. Astronomers named it Oumuamua, Hawaiian for “scout” or “messenger,” because it was the first interstellar object they had ever recorded — the only known traveler to have crossed the vast distance between another star system and our own. Where it came from was only part of its mystery. Oumuamua fit none of the well-understood astronomical categories. If it was a rock — an asteroid — it was an extremely strange one. Researchers estimated that it was at least the length of a football field; its shape was hard to determine, but it seemed to be long and thin, like a cigar. “No known objects in the Solar System have such extreme dimensions,” wrote the group of astronomers who discovered the object.
The bipartisan group of representatives pushing for public information on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) is having difficulty continuing their effort after a blockbuster committee hearing last month.
The Hill hosted an event Thursday, The Truth Is Out There: UFOs & National Security, which was moderated by congressional reporter Mychael Schnell and featured three of the four members of Congress who have pushed for UAP transparency.
The military types who recently testified before a congressional hearing about their close encounters with UFOs were not the usual suspects associated with such reports. Retired naval commander David Fravor said that he, his weapons service officer and their counterparts in another jet had seen a mysterious “Tic-Tac” shaped “object” while both planes were flying off San Diego in 2004. Speaking to a House of Representatives Oversight subcommittee at the end of last month, he detailed how the object’s dramatic maneuvers — caught on video by the next flight crew to take off — were beyond the capabilities of the known.
Americans on the whole have remained largely unmoved by the testimony given at a special hearing of the House Oversight Committee on whether the government was covertly aware or in possession of alien technology and alien life.
According to two polls of 1,500 U.S. adults, conducted on behalf of Newsweek by Redfield & Wilton Strategies before and after the UFO hearing in late July, fewer Americans are now as sure about the claim that the federal government is in possession of an alien craft, and slightly more people now believe that the government knows more than it is letting on.
There’s no phone number. No email address. Not even a website.
More than a year since the Pentagon launched an office to investigate UFO sightings, there is still no hotline for pilots and others to report mysterious objects directly to the investigators.
“We recently looked at the latest House committee hearing on UFOs and what the Pentagon knows about them, including the bombshell testimony from whistleblower and former top intelligence community official David Grusch. It was obvious that plenty of people inside the Pentagon were going to be unhappy about their secrets being revealed, and the members of Congress investigating the matter have had numerous roadblocks thrown up in their way. But someone’s anger at Grusch’s candid testimony has obviously crossed a very serious line.”
My interview with @ChrisCuomo this evening on @NewsNation. Why this sensitive personal mental health information re Mr Grusch’s PTSD was released is now under investigation by the Police. Moreover why print such a snide story when the PTSD was no issue to @DeptofDefense security? https://t.co/606uL6ZKg8
Totally agree with @RogueUAPTF here. It’s admitted by @theintercept journalist himself now that he was told where to look by sources inside IC & @DeptofDefense who were trying to smear David Grusch. Their tip could only have come from Grusch’s highly classified security files. https://t.co/WsJvm13OjA
The late Stanton Friedman, the engaging and entrepreneurial researcher who played such an important part in the evolution of the Roswell myth, used to refer to the supposed cover-up of a spacecraft crash not too far (in New Mexico miles) from Roswell as a “cosmic Watergate.” The label reflected the times — the late 1970s — when the long-forgotten story of the unfortunate UFO was first exhumed. It was later elaborated upon with the addition of the discovery of undersized alien corpses and, even, accounts of a second crash.
While a small community of enthusiasts has been investigating unidentified flying objects for decades, in recent years, they largely flew under the radar.
Until a compelling 2017 report by the New York Times that paired cockpit videos of what looked like a darting Tic Tac mint with the firsthand account of the Navy pilots who saw them.
“Those articles opened the door for the government and public that cannot be closed,” retired Cmdr. David Fravor, a former F-18 pilot, testified before a congressional committee on July 26. “It removed the stigma on the topic of UFOs, which is why we’re here today.”
The decades-long saga of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) is barreling headlong toward one of two stunning conclusions.
Either the U.S. government has mounted an extraordinary, decades-long coverup of UFO retrieval and reverse-engineering activities, or elements of the defense and intelligence establishment are engaging in a staggeringly brazen psychological disinformation campaign.
Either possibility would have profound implications for democracy, the role of government and perhaps also humanity’s place in the cosmos.
Three UFO Witnesses DROPPED OUT Of Hearing Last Minute After Phone Call From PENTAGON: Rep. Burchett
Starting in WW II the US has had a formal Crash Retrieval program designed to scoop up “enemy” tech that as far as I know operates to this day. I see no reason why this program would have been discontinued and no reason why its mandate would not have included suspected UFO’s. During WW II the US recovered an intact Japanese Zero fighter in the Aleutians. They patched it up and discovered its weaknesses during flight testing which assisted in the design of the Hellcat fighter.
Ward Carrol a retired Navy pilot has a video discussing the Navy UFO videos, he flew Soviet aircraft acquired by hook or by crook in a secret school for American pilots.
Last week, I had a front-row seat at the hearing of the House Oversight and Accountability Committee’s Subcommittee on National Security, the Border, and Foreign Affairs on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), also known as UFOs. The three witnesses provided extraordinary testimony on their observations of aerial craft with performance characteristics far beyond those of modern aircraft, as well as knowledge of a hidden U.S. government crash retrieval program of such vehicles and their nonhuman operators.
