Government Finds No Evidence That Aerial Sightings Were Alien Spacecraft

The strange objects witnessed by Navy pilots remain unexplained, but officials briefed on a new study say they are not secret technology from a classified American program.

WASHINGTON — American intelligence officials have found no evidence that aerial phenomena witnessed by Navy pilots in recent years are alien spacecraft, but they still cannot explain the unusual movements that have mystified scientists and the military, according to senior administration officials briefed on the findings of a highly anticipated government report.

The report determines that the vast majority of more than 120 incidents over the past two decades did not originate from any American military or other advanced U.S. government technology, the officials said. That determination would appear to eliminate the possibility that Navy pilots who reported seeing unexplained aircraft might have encountered programs the government meant to keep secret.

But that is about the only conclusive finding in the classified intelligence report, the officials said. And while a forthcoming unclassified version, expected to be released to Congress by June 25, will present few other firm conclusions, senior officials briefed on the intelligence conceded that the very ambiguity of the findings meant the government could not definitively rule out theories that the phenomenon observed by military pilots might be alien spacecraft.

Soooo they aren’t ours. Can’t prove they’re off world. So are they China or Russia? No way China and Russia have 600G tech. So what are they?

The space aliens found no evidence of intelligent life on Earth. But that didn’t stop us from setting up Congress and the news media.

A lot of recent videos from Mars also shows lots of swamp gas objects flying around.

I love the ‘no evidence’ answer, just like I loved it after the election. It’s their way of thumbing their collective noses at us and saying, “then prove it.”

It’s a ‘success’ when Russia can put a ship to sea or launch a plane and it doesn’t catch fire...or worse. The Chinese haven’t engineered an original design maybe ever. Just about everything they build is stolen tech, usually from us.

It’s laughable to believe the Russians or the Chinese could engineer, build and put into operation aircraft that are, as you say, scores if not hundreds of generations beyond what we’re using.

Draw your own conclusions.

I for one need more proof. Why is it the defense department that’s hiding everything? You mean those spacecraft don’t get the attention of commercial/private pilots? I’ll go with the government on this. A Soros plot to get the public to think we’re all tin foil hat types.

What? Airline pilots spot these things all the time. They don't officially report them for obvious reasons, but they will tell you over a few beers.

Ok so why are the aliens keeping such a LOW profile? What do they have to hide from us? Maybe we’re just a spec in the universe, not worth discovering.

China is still trying to reverse engineer the Ford F-150. I don't think they are ready to build drones that can fly 15,000 mph and stop on a dime.

Of course, I could be wrong.

They’d rather spend money fighting man-made global change that trying to be able to shoot down “UFOs” or prevent them from approaching missile silos and flying planes.
