Do aliens exist?
The report examined multiple unexplained sightings from recent years that in some cases have been captured on video. However, it did not rule out the existence of aliens, as it could not explain several aerial sightings by pilots.
The New York Times said 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.
The findings are unlikely to settle the speculation over the existence of aliens, a topic that has intrigued many around the world for decades. It has invoked many conspiracy theories, and inspired representation in popular culture.
A task force will share data it collected on unusual flight phenomena with Congress. UFO enthusiasts rejoice. But a German expert with decades of research under his belt doesn't believe aliens have ever been to Earth.
Do aliens exist?
Why is the report coming now?
It s no coincidence that Congress members will get more info on UAPs this month. A detailed report from the UAP Task Force was a requirement in the $2.3 billion (€1.8 billion) spending package that Congress passed in December 2020. Within six months, the legislation stipulated, the Department of Defense and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence would have to present detailed analysis of unidentified aerial phenomena data and intelligence.
Democrats and Republicans requesting a report about unidentified flying objects, a topic that until not too long ago was the purview of sci-fi movie fans, conspiracy theorists and alien enthusiasts, shows that the possibility of extraterrestrial intelligence is a lot less absurd to high-level US officials now than it used to be.
