The Pentagon made a statement on Thursday, revealing that there is no verifiable evidence of extraterrestrial beings, activity, or technology. This announcement comes after a former Pentagon official testified before Congress, claiming that there is evidence suggesting that “we are not alone in the cosmos.”
Deputy Pentagon press secretary, Sabrina Singh, addressed reporters during a press briefing, stating that the Department of Defense has submitted its annual report on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) to Congress for the fiscal year 2024. The report highlighted that the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) has received over 1,600 UAP reports since its establishment in July 2022.
Out of the 1,600 reports, 757 were received by AARO in the past year, with hundreds of cases being resolved. The identified UAPs were categorized as objects like balloons, birds, drones, satellites, and aircraft. Additionally, over 900 reports lacked sufficient data for analysis, but they remain in an active archive for future reference.
Singh emphasized that only a small percentage of reports to AARO are potentially anomalous, requiring significant time and resources for investigation. She reiterated that the department has not found any concrete evidence of extraterrestrial beings, activity, or technology in any of the cases resolved by AARO.
When questioned about the accusation of the Pentagon possessing remains of aliens or evidence of extraterrestrial life, Singh denied any knowledge of such claims. She maintained that the department has not discovered any verified evidence of extraterrestrial beings, activity, or technology.
Former head of the Defense Department’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), Luiz Elizondo, testified before Congress, accusing a select group within the government of concealing information about extraterrestrial phenomena. Elizondo called for legislation to protect whistleblowers who may have information about government operations related to UAPs.
The hearing aimed to investigate UAPs and determine if any government entities are unlawfully withholding evidence from Congress. Dr. Tim Gallaudet, a retired U.S. Navy rear admiral, also shared an incident involving UAPs during a military exercise aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier.
As the investigation into UAPs continues, lawmakers are striving to shed light on this mysterious phenomenon and ensure transparency in government operations related to extraterrestrial sightings. Stay tuned for more updates on this intriguing topic.
