Congressional Hearing Fuels Fresh Debate About UFOs
- An 11-page document that’s attributed to a Pentagon whistleblower has provided new cases in the controversy over unidentified aerial phenomena — also known as UAPs, unidentified flying objects or UFOs.
- The document claims that the Immaculate Constellation program has imagery and other data relating to encounters with a variety of anomalous objects.
- Over the past few years, the Department of Defense has become more open to discussing UAP reports publicly, while insisting that there have been no substantiated reports of alien visitations.
- During today’s hearing, lawmakers called on the Pentagon to be more transparent in its investigations.
- The witnesses and the lawmakers seemed unanimous in their support for greater transparency about UAP sightings.
- Congress is currently considering legislation that would strengthen current requirements for UAP disclosure and whistleblower protection.
- The document, released today in conjunction with a House subcommittee hearing on UAPs, lays out details about what’s said to be a special access program called Immaculate Constellation.
- Michael Shellenberger, an author and journalist who received the document from the purported whistleblower, said he verified the source’s credentials and assured lawmakers that the document was authentic.
- Mick West, a retired software engineer who specializes in analyzing UAP reports, was generally skeptical of the claims made during the hearing, which was conducted jointly by two subcommittees under the aegis of the House Oversight Committee.
- The witnesses at the UAP hearing included retired Navy Rear Adm. Tim Gallaudet, who served as the acting administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration during the Trump administration.
