The truthisout there – and , for many , it is going to be dissatisfactory and mundane . After much speculation and expectancy , the US Defence Department has released its written report exploring whether the government has been covering up alien encounters , and whether they have entree to extra - planetary technology that they are reverse engineering . And the findings can be summed up pretty compactly : no .

The Pentagonreport , which exceeds 60 pages , was released on Friday , March 8 , and significantly wound , if not drink down , many claims that the US government have been involved in tenner old cover - up efforts .

The report was to begin with mandate by Congress and investigation was carried out by the All - Domain Anomaly Resolution Office ( AARO ) , an office that was set up in 2022 to handle “ Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena ( UAP ) using a rigorous scientific framework and a data - driven approach ” , so theirwebsitestates .

" AARO assesses that aver , hidden UAP programs either do not exist or were misidentified , authentic interior security programs unrelated to extraterrestrial applied science exploitation , " AARO playacting Director Tim Phillipssaidduring a briefing at the Pentagon .

It is easy to understand why this investigating was put together , give the sheer number of claims and conspiracies circulating aboutalienencounters . As the report state , a “ consistent theme in pop culture postulate a particularly persistent narrative that the [ US Government]—or a closelipped organization within it — recover several off - world spacecraft and extraterrestrial biological stiff , that it operate a political program or programs to annul engineer the recovered engineering , and that it has conspire since the forties to keep this movement hidden from the United States Congress and the American public . ”

In essence , the investigation collide with at the center of the alien belief framework held by many worshipper across the world , something that , the written report add , has been bolstered by the “ proliferation of idiot box programs , books , movies , and the Brobdingnagian amount of net and societal media capacity [ that has ] most likely [ … ] act upon the public conversation on this topic , and reinforced these beliefs within some section of the population . ”

During their probe , the AARO come up “ no grounds ” that any government investigation , pedantic research or official review has ever “ confirmed that any sighting of aUAPrepresented extraterrestrial applied science . "

or else , they reason that “ at all level of classification [ … ] most sightings were average object and phenomenon and the result of misidentification . ”

" I wish to emphasize that we believe most of the somebody repeat these claims did so without malice or any effort to mislead the public , " Phillips tell . " Many have sincerely misapprehend real effect or mistaken sore U.S. programs , for which they were not cleared , as having been connect to UAP or extraterrestrial victimisation . "

They also found no “ empirical evidence for title that the [ US government ] and private society have been rearward - engineering extraterrestrial technology . ”

So where have these approximation come from ? According to the AARO , the call around reverse - engineering alien tech are largely the products of “ circular reporting ” carried out by “ a group of person who believe this to be the showcase , despite the want of any grounds . ”

The results come from careful test of composition and US investigations carried out since the mid-1940s . The team examined classified and unclassified archive evidence , carried out around 30 consultation and “ partner with Intelligence Community ( IC ) and Department of Defense ( DoD ) officials responsible for controlled and special accession program oversight , respectively . ”

These results are bound to be encounter with dashing hopes and rejection by some believers , especially after last twelvemonth ’s patent revelation from a former US intelligence functionary stimulate excitement . The “ whistleblower”,David Grusch , lay claim that the US government had been involved in a “ multidecade ” secluded curriculum to reverse - engineer alien engineering science .

Despite these claims , the AARO reputation found no grounds that the US government or other US society “ ever possessed off - creation technology . ”

“ AARO has approached this task with the widest possible aperture , thoroughly investigate these assertions and claims without any peculiar pre - conceived conclusion or hypothesis . AARO is intrust to reaching conclusion establish on empirical grounds . ”

" AARO , as plan by Congress , had unprecedented admission to classified political program , " Phillips said . " Nobody occlude where we could go or the question we asked . Nobody in the government influenced the findings in the report . "

" As a career intelligence service policeman , I am just amazed at the accession we had to some of our nation ’s most sensitive program . Nobody said , ' No . ' "
