U S Congress Discusses U F O Sightings By Military

[naomi24]

//Retired US Navy commander David Fravor …. recounted his encounter with a "tic-tac" shaped UAP in 2004 that moved in a way that baffled aviators, footage of which was released in 2017 and publicly verified by the US Navy two years later.

"The technology that we faced was far superior than anything that we had, have today, or are looking to develop in the next 10+ years," Mr Fravor said.

David Grusch, an ex-Air Force intelligence officer, hinted that government officials had suppressed information and punished whistleblowers, but claimed he could not elaborate further in public due to classification laws.

In one notable exchange, Nancy Mace, a South Carolina Republican, asked Mr Grusch elaborate on what he knew about non-terrestrial bodies.

She asked him if "biologics" were recovered from any crafts retrieved by the government.
Referencing his previous media interviews, Mr Grusch responded that "biologics came with some of these recoveries".

Were they human or non-human? Ms Mace asked.

"Non-human, and that was the assessment of people with direct knowledge on the programme I talked to," Mr Grusch responded. During a different line of questioning, he confirmed he had never personally seen an alien body.//

What say you?

[Old_Geezer]

Flying objects that are unidentified clearly exist. But just about everything to do with them is speculation and opinion. Hopefully clarity will come in time.

[Peter Pedant]

madder than the maddest on AB !
wow!
he said this under oath and so must believe it

what do I say: only in America

[ToraToraTora]

Load of old pony, Aliens definitely exist, we will never see or contact them in any way. End of.

[naomi24]

TTT, neither the US nor the British military know what they are. What do you think they are and where do you think they come from?

[ToraToraTora]

I just don't believe their assessment. There will be a rational explanation. This is "alien autopsy" country.

[royfromaus]

And what were the pilots...hedgehogs?

[naomi24]

Do you not think they've considered rational assessments?

[Ken4155]

I just hope that when they do 'get in touch' with us, there'll be someone on hand to offer them a cuppa.

[ClareTG0ld]

You aren't going to get to the truth of whether aliens exist, or have visited Earth, from a US Congressional Hearing. That much at least is clear.

[naomi24]

ClareTG0ld, I don't expect to.

[sandyRoe]

Has Mr Grusch a book in the pipeline?
I remember the publicity surrounding 'Chariot of the Gods'. It was a load of nonsense but made its author a lot of money on

[Zacs-Master]

Yes, it does rather smack of a publicity exercise prior to the launch of a pension enhancing publication.

[Khandro]

Stephen Hawking warned that if extra-terrestrials do exist we should give the a wide berth in consideration of the fact of the outcomes of all inter- ethic contacts made here on this planet have been disasters for the indigenous populations.

[ClareTG0ld]

Naomi 11:30 -- well, good, as long as we're clear on that point.

I am not sure that I can endorse TTT earlier, though: "never" is a long time in science.

[naomi24]

ClareTG0ld, //as long as we're clear on that point. //

I'm not sure what you mean. There's been no suggestion that an answer will come from the US Congress so being clear with you on that particular point is neither here nor there.

[ClareTG0ld]

I'm not interested in trying to manufacture a conflict where none exists.

[naomi24]

Pardon?

[naomi24]

Another mystery going back decades.

Can't remember who said this, but he said that when you have discounted all the hoaxes, fake photos of hub caps, cgi etc, then what you have left is the American Military.

Just after lockdown started, I went into the garden to look for the Lyreid meteor shower. Saw one or two, very nice. Then I saw what I would describe as a bright star that streaked accross the sky, SW to NE, in two seconds. Two seconds folks! No flaming engine. No sound. No breaking up, like meteors do. Just a bright star. What could that have been? I dunno. Any ideas folks?

[naomi24]

Perhaps it WAS a meteor.
