Since AARO was established, I have referred four witnesses to them who claim to have knowledge of a secret U.S. government program involving the analysis and exploitation of materials recovered from off-world craft. Other sources who, rightly or wrongly do not trust AARO’s leadership, have also contacted me with additional details and information about an alleged secret U.S. government reverse engineering program. Some have supplied information to the intelligence community’s inspector general, others directly to staff of the congressional oversight committees. As this process has progressed, and the credibility of these claims has grown, so too have my concerns. What if I’m helping to pry open a genuine Pandora’s box, releasing information that might prove destructive, destabilizing or for many simply terrifying? I’ve repeatedly had to ask myself: “Is disclosure in the best interest of the public? Am I doing the right thing working to bring what could be America’s most deeply buried secret to light?”
The most refreshingly clear guidance I have received came from Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.), who is chair of the Senate Armed Services Emerging Threats and Capabilities Subcommittee and member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. When the opportunity presented itself during a meeting in the Senate, I asked, “You’ve launched an investigation that could prove aliens are visiting earth. What if the answer proves to be yes? Would you support sharing that information with the American people?” After all, AARO is not required to share its findings with the public, only Congress. Without hesitating she replied, “Of course! Why not?” I thought it was a great answer because I’ve always believed the public has a right to know the truth. However, after much reflection, I’ve also concluded the public needs to know the truth. I say this for the following reasons:
[...]
In conclusion, I believe it is in our interest to follow the facts of the UAP issue wherever they lead. All living things, all nations and corporations, can only survive by continuing to adapt to changing circumstances. But to do so we must know the facts. We can’t adapt to what we don’t perceive. Concealing such vital information, if indeed we are not alone, poses a huge barrier to understanding and successfully adapting to the world around us. Lies and disinformation are already polluting public discourse. We can’t have meaningful debates on policy if we cannot even agree on the basic facts.
Admittedly, disclosure would initially be shocking and disorienting, but we would of necessity modify our beliefs to accommodate a new understanding of the universe and our place within it. What is deemed possible technologically would certainly change, but if our government can reveal the truth of such a deep secret it will demonstrate that government can change as well. Maybe we can build on that, perhaps even mitigating the dynamic of our current, frighteningly polarized political process.
As Arthur C. Clarke, the brilliant author and inventor of modern communications satellites once said, commenting on the possibility of extraterrestrial contact: “Strangeness, wonder, mystery and magic — these things that not long ago seemed lost forever, will soon return to the world.” Some people will be afraid of change, as always, but change is inevitable and as always those who recognize and embrace it are the most likely to benefit. Thankfully, there are many reasons to believe that if UAP are manifestations of extraterrestrial intelligence, this stunning revelation can work to humanity’s advantage.

Trump should promise to relese ALL UFO files if he’s re-elected. Along with the Kennedy files, report from the Las Vegas massacre, all Epstein information, and who killed Seth Rich.
Even the democrats would vote for him.
Now duck and run.
Squirrel
He’d damn sure get the sci-fi vote.
They fail a working with ATC!
Yeah, but whose squirrel?
President Trump already had a chance to release all the JFK files.
He refused to do so.
I have explained why in many posts here (JFK nonproliferation policy sprung Mossad/CIA alliance into action so Israel could become a nuclear power).
The full unredacted JFK files will never be released for that reason.
UFO’s are One big joke.
Stop this nonsense.⁵
They don’t.
There are no UFOs.
We are not being visited.
However, if you need a common threat to rally people to give up their rights and their property so you can become all powerful and enslave those idiots, then yes UFOs exist.
Note: This is not a repeat from 75 years ago.
When one can’t handle the notion of we are alone invent a UFO or as the feds invent one for a new shake down agency for money laundering for dark operations.
“The most refreshingly clear guidance I have received came from Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.)..”
Destroyed credibility right there.
Elon says there are no UFO’s.
“Elon says there are no UFO’s.”
If a UFO smashes into one of Elon’s rockets I am going to have a good laugh.
you are such a pistol..lol.
yea but the periodic table has been banned. It’s racist don’t ya know.
Haha!
To be clear Elon actually said there are no aliens. He said it on a Joe Rogan podcast.
I like Elon, but he's just human like everyone else.
