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.”

Whistleblower former intelligence official says government posseses ‘intact and partially intact’ craft of non-human origin

NASA has held its first public meeting on the long-awaited report into UFOs. Last year, this new study was launched to investigate reports of UAP (unexplained anomalous phenomena) and for the first time the space agency has made the latest findings public.

An Air Force veteran and former member of the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency is coming forward with information on what he claims are extraterrestrial craft recovered and kept secret by the U.S. government. Blurry videos of unidentified flying objects have long been a staple of those looking for evidence that stories of UFOs may not be conspiracy theories.

It was out of this world, y’all.

A Pentagon official who heads up a secretive unit studying unidentified flying objects has speculated that recent sightings in US airspace could actually be alien probes from a mothership sent to study Earth.

Something else is going on.

A Harvard University astronomer and the head of the Pentagon’s UFO office teamed up to release a draft paper saying that interstellar objects detected in space could be signs of extraterrestrial life, but current sky-mapping technology could miss such objects. NBC News’ Gadi Schwartz has the story.

Ryan Graves is a former Navy fighter pilot and Chair of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) UAP Integration & Outreach Committee (UAPIOC). The following commentary is in response to a series of recent Op-Eds published in the Wall Street Journal by columnist Holman Jenkins, who named Ryan directly in his November critique.

Last June, NASA announced that it would convene a panel to study "unidentified aerial phenomena" (UAP), aka UFOs — while saying it doesn't believe they're "extraterrestrial in origin." Now, the space agency has unveiled the 16-member panel that will focus on "unclassified sightings and other data collected from civilian government and commercial sectors."

The agency says it was a mistake, but how did this flying saucer logo get uploaded in the first place?

NASA isn't taking its coming UFO investigation lightly. The agency announced in June that it will open a scientific study into UFOs (short for "unidentified flying objects"), or, as they've recently been rebranded, UAP ("unidentified aerial phenomena"). The main goals, NASA officials said at the time, will be to identify and characterize the available UFO data, lay out the best ways to collect observations in the future and determine how the agency can use such data to advance our understanding of these puzzling sky sights.

A Harvard professor thinks very seriously that a meteor that fell to Earth in 2014 could contain alien technology – which would explain its surprising resistance… In the United States, doing serious research on extraterrestrials no longer seems taboo. Researcher Avi Loeb, a well-respected man in Harvard’s astronomy department, has just announced plans to mount a mission to retrieve fragments from a meteor that crashed into the Pacific Ocean in 2014.

Although modest in scope, a NASA research project reflects shifting attitudes toward the formerly taboo subject of UFOs

A British tech entrepreneur posted on Reddit looking for help getting a Cold War era nuclear early warning radar dish to spin again. British tech entrepreneur William Sachiti had been living and working in the abandoned Royal Air Force (RAF) air defense radar station for about three months when he posted a thread on Reddit looking for help.

Today, NASA announced that it is putting together an independent team of researchers this fall to study sightings of unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAPs, the updated term now used to refer to UFOs. The space agency says it plans to study these sightings from a scientific perspective but also stressed that “there is no evidence UAPs are extra-terrestrial in origin.”

The proceedings begin at 9 a.m. EDT (1300 GMT).

A House committee will hold a public hearing on UFOs next Tuesday for the first time in decades, as Congress presses the Pentagon and other national security agencies for more answers on reports of mysterious aircraft violating protected airspace.

Lawmakers receiving the latest secret briefings on UFOs say national security agencies still aren’t taking seriously the reports of highly advanced aircraft of unknown origin violating protected airspace.
