    The whole point of an UFO is that it is unidentified. I don’t get how people instantly think that the aircraft is alien…

      Bingo. The people who are involved with this in Congress specifically have stated that they think the government is not in full control of US airspace. The investigation is to find out if that is true.

      Usually it’s just a spy plane. Sometimes from the same country. Or a weather balloon, falling satellite, or just instrument errors. It’s never been aliens. And if aliens can get all the way here, they aren’t doing some shifty shit like being detected by friggin RADAR! Can you imagine how embarrassing that’d be?

      “Hey Quizlock, we heard you did some recon of Earth and the humans caught you on their radio frequency detection and ranging devices! How’d you manage that? Blast visual data at them and not absorb anomalous spectra? What an amateur! Now get back to reconfiguring the new quasar drives!”

      The dude under oath talked about non-human remains. In this case I think that’s why. (Not that I think it’s true or anything, I’ll need more than hearsay in order to believe).

      The congress person asking why the whistleblowers didnt use the term extraterrestrial was so cringe. This was after the part where they explained they keep an open mind for other theories like interdimensional phenomenon. Really shows how uneducated some people that hold higher degrees really are.
