Four witnesses talked about seeing UFOs – or UAPs as they’re now known – in testimony given to the House Oversight Subcommittee on Sept. 9.The subcommittee heard their statements as part of an examination of a purportedly secret UFO retrieval program managed by the Pentagon. The hearing is the third in as many years since a fiery hearing in July 2023 reignited public fascination in mysterious airborne craft.
The government has rebranded UFOs with its preferred acronym of UAP – short for Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. Hours of compelling testimony about not just strange craft whizzing unchecked through U.S. airspace, but about a concerted effort of our government to capture and study those craft, does little to dispel those "X-Files"-esque associations. Especially in a nation where nearly half of Americans believe the U.S. government is concealing information about UFOs.
Between May 1, 2023, and June 1, 2024, 757 UAPs were reported. Though most sightings can be identified as planes, balloons, drones and weather events, the independent group says more sophisticated scientific research is needed, along with efforts to remove the stigma of reporting UFOs (sorry, UAP).
