WASHINGTON: US Intel Report On UFOs Inconclusive But Couldn’t Rule Out Aliens Existence

WASHINGTON: The conclusion of a classified US
intelligence report on the existence of alien UFOs is . . . inconclusive, US
media reported recently.

US
military and intelligence found no evidence that seemingly highly advanced unidentified
flying objects sighted by military pilots were alien spacecraft, the report
concludes, according to the New York Times and other media briefed on it.

But it
also could not explain dozens of phenomena and incidents, some filmed by the
pilots, and so could not rule out the existence of aliens.

According
to the New York Times, citing unnamed senior administration officials, the
report determined that most of some 120 incidents over the past 20 years had
nothing to do with unknown or secret US military or government technology.

Nor were
they related to objects like research balloons, which some postulated were
behind the reports.

But it
then could not explain what, for example, US Navy pilots saw when they recorded
objects travelling at seeming hypersonic speeds, spinning and mysteriously
disappearing.

Serious
defense concerns

While
speculation over alien life has long been a cottage industry for conspiracy
theorists, the sheer number of what the Pentagon terms unidentified aerial
phenomena (UAP) has made it a serious issue, amid worries that US adversaries
like China and Russia may be using unknown, highly advanced military and
surveillance technologies.

The
report, ordered last year, is to be submitted to Congress by the end of June by
the director of national intelligence.

The main
report will be unclassified and can be made public, but there will also be a
classified annex, the Times said, that will remain secret.

The
report, the Washington Post said, “will offer no firm conclusions about
what the objects . . . might be.”

Interest
was piqued in the possibility of highly intelligent extraterrestrial life after
the Pentagon released videos last year, in which Navy pilots express amazement
at the fast-moving objects they see.

Added to
that were comments by top officials with access to intelligence, including
former president Barack Obama, and a CBS 60 Minutes report in which pilots were
interviewed about what they saw.

“What
is true — and I’m actually being serious here– is that there’s footage and records
of objects in the skies that we don’t know exactly what they are,” former
president Barack Obama told “The Late Late Show” on May 17.

“There
are a lot more sightings than have been made public,” John Ratcliffe, who
was director of national intelligence for the last eight months of Donald
Trump’s administration, said on Fox News in March.

“There
are instances where we don’t have good explanations for some of the things that
we’ve seen.”

Luis
Elizondo, who had worked on the Pentagon’s UAP investigation and has urged it
to reveal what it knows, said some of the sightings suggest extremely advanced
technology unknown to humans.

“If
the New York Times reporting is accurate, the objects being witnessed by pilots
around the world are far more advanced than any earthly technologies known to
our intelligence services,” he said in a tweet.

“It’s
time to release the full report, videos & data that we’ve seen in the
Pentagon.”
