In April, the director of the Pentagon’s new program for studying UFOs said he had seen no evidence of alien spacecraft. “I should also state clearly for the record,” said Sean Kirkpatrick, the Director of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), “that in our research, AARO has found no credible evidence thus far of extraterrestrial activity, off-world technology, or objects that defy the known laws of physics.”
The statement, which was part of a hearing on the topic, generated headlines around the world. “UFO sightings are up,” noted Politico, “but no proof of aliens yet, Pentagon official says.” Wrote News Nation, “UFO Chief: No ‘credible evidence’ of extraterrestrial activity.”
But on Monday, an Air Force whistleblower contradicted the Pentagon’s claim, telling The Debrief and News Nation that the U.S. government is in possession of “quite a number” of alien spacecraft. “I thought it was totally nuts,” David Grusch said. “I thought at first I was being deceived.”
