How to Interpret the Latest Government UFO Report
The long-awaited government report on UFOs has finally been released. What did we learn? And what does it say about the future of ufology?
As we’ve previously reported, the Intelligence Authorization Act for 2021 called on the Director of National Intelligence, as well as the heads of other intelligence agencies, to submit a report and detailed analysis of all unidentified aerial phenomena held by the U.S. government. That report has just been released.
Nick Pope, who worked for the U.K.’s Ministry of Defense investigating UFOs, said, “The bottom line in this nine-page report is ‘yes, these things are real, yes they interact with our military jets, our aircraft carriers (and) destroyers, our pilots see them, our radar operators track them, but no, we don’t have the faintest idea of what we’re dealing with.'”

New Legislation Could Open Floodgates of Government UFO Reports
The US government just made it easier to report UFOs, possibly releasing people from non-disclosure agreements. Will this open the floodgates of information?
As part of the annual defense spending bill, within the National Defense Authorization Act for 2023, the House just approved an amendment that would make it easier for current or former members of the military, government-employed civilians, and contractors to report UFOs or UAPs as the government now calls them.
The measure was sponsored by Reps. Mike Gallagher of Wisconsin and Ruben Gallego of Arizona, who have been among those in Congress calling for more transparency into UFOs.
The amendment would create a secure system for reporting any UFO phenomena and protect those who come forward from any repercussions.
Gallagher told Politico, “I believe it’s possible that folks may be precluded from being fully transparent with congress due to their being bound by non-disclosure agreements… if that’s true, I want to make sure that there’s no technical reason preventing them from speaking to us.”
