Experts testify at UFO hearing in Congress

During a recent congressional hearing titled "Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena: Exposing the Truth," experts testified about the U.S. government's involvement in secret UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) programs. The hearing followed a Pentagon report that found no evidence of extraterrestrial spacecraft. Notable testimonies included retired Navy Admiral Tim Gallaudet, who recounted an encounter with an unidentified object during a naval exercise, and Luis Elizondo, a former Department of Defense official, who claimed that advanced technologies not made by any government are monitoring military installations. Elizondo confirmed the existence of secret UAP crash retrieval programs aimed at reverse-engineering alien craft. Michael Gold, a former NASA official, emphasized the need for scientific dialogue on UAPs, while Michael Shellenberger called for transparency legislation regarding UAP programs. The hearing highlighted the importance of overcoming stigma associated with UAP research and the need for more transparency from the government. The establishment of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) was noted as a step towards centralizing UAP reporting. Despite historical investigations like Project Blue Book, many sightings remain unexplained, with experts urging for further study and openness in addressing UAP phenomena.

I still yet to hear anything close to a plausible explanation of the situation. We have super advanced alien species who can travel across the galaxy, or even the universe, and they have found us. They watch over us and even though their technology is beyond our comprehension, they're lazy enough to get caught a few times here and there. Why would they just watch? Are they really that lazy that they get caught? Surely they know and understand our capabilities. It just doesn't make sense.

People are seeing things that they can't explain. That warrants investigation. Definitive statements about how these are not human seem motivated by ideology instead of evidence. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. If that evidence is presented I'm happy to change my mind here, but none of this ever adds up.

> "Let me be clear: UAP are real," he writes. "Advanced technologies not made by our Government — or any other government — are monitoring sensitive military installations around the globe

That's very specific: not made by any government.

We know it's not aliens. It's never aliens. So, it's some sort of private party, probably a company.

Fake news: someone built a new thing and was testing it in a Navy training range or was using it to spy on the test range and some Navy aircraft entering or exiting the range managed to take video footage of it.

The truth: an advanced intelligence capable of interstellar flight traveled dozens if not millions of light years to visit Earth and chose to fly perpendicular to a bunch of F/A-18s in a Navy training range and then disappear, never to be seen again by man or machine. They ignored all of the locations of industrial activity, all of the people, the land, the animals, the unique geologic features, the vast expanses of earth covered by multiple overlapping forms of radar and cameras pointed at the sky, and flew over an empty-ass stretch of ocean COINCIDENTALLY when some F/A-18s were there.

This is so embarrassing.

What's next, a hearing on whether ghosts are real?

Usurping the powers of Congress is the real issue here. If the military did things and hid them from Congress and the President, then they are in big trouble. Air safety is a secondary issue. National security is a concern, but given how long no one has been able to figure out definitive answers maybe it doesn't matter. On the other hand, drones are real and have also been buzzing military installations; that seems like a real national security threat that has been largely ignored.

It's always been mainly a cover story for experimental aircraft. That's why there are so many "UFO sightings" near the military base where they test the most experimental aircraft. Obviously.

In some cases it's just dirt on a lens or similar. Extremely occasionally there are aircraft they can't identify but in no cases is it ever clear that these are extraterrestrial.

This is the 2nd stupidest shit ever. Only after blasting off to live on Mars 8-/

No wonder the US political situation is such a disaster (and I don't just mean the election of the cheato).

With this much of the population, and this much of the representative legislature so far off the rails of reality, it's almost a miracle that anything gets done at all.

No matter how sophisticated the vast numbers of cameras are in our world nothing can ever get a clear picture ….. ever.

Military bases and equipment with presumably the most sophisticated camera systems.

Says it all.

"Immaculate Constellation"

Is a hoax. There are no "other world" aliens or spacecrafts. Everything is earth-based.

When Ms. Boebert open her mouth, she immediately claims the earth was flat. Additionally, this wasn't just "UAP" but really a way to drum up various conspiracy theories. She keeps goes on about non-human genetic materials and creating of hybrids, and alien hideouts in the oceans.

This is a waste of my tax payer money. Republicans voted down Biden's Cancer Moonshot, but find this trash to be completely legit?
