For those who think the U.S. government has no interest in reports of flying saucers and UFOs, think again; a secret Defense Department program created in 2007 and supposedly closed in 2012 investigated reports of unidentified flying objects, even reporting footage from a Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet showing an aircraft surrounded by some kind of glowing aura traveling at high speed and rotating as it moved.

As The New York Times reports, $22 million was spent on the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, which was supervised by a military intelligence official, Luis Elizondo, from the fifth floor of the Pentagon’s C Ring.

Although the program was officially ended in 2012, the Times reports that backers of the program insist that officials are still investigating incidents reported to them by service members.

The Times adds that the program produced documents reporting aircraft seemingly racing with no visible signs of propulsion, or hovering with no identifiable means of lift.

The program collected video and audio recordings of reported U.F.O. incidents, including footage from a Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet showing an aircraft surrounded by some kind of glowing aura traveling at high speed and rotating as it moves. The Navy pilots can be heard trying to understand what they are seeing. “There’s a whole fleet of them,” one exclaims.

There are numerous unexplained sightings by Navy pilots and other observers of aircraft with capabilities that are currently considered aerodynamically impossible. He said the sightings were often reported near nuclear facilities, either ships at sea or power plants, adding, "We had never seen anything like it."

The program also stated that the United States could not defend itself against some of the technologies discovered.

What's you opinion about UFOs and ETs?

Initiated by then U.S. Senator Harry Reid (D-Nevada) to study unexplained aerial phenomena at the urging of Reid’s friend, Nevada businessman, UFO aficionado and governmental contractor Robert Bigelow

the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) was de-funded in 2012 after a run of just a few years.

This reason was given:


Politico published a statement by a former staff member that, “After a while the consensus was we really couldn’t find anything of substance,” ...“They produced reams of paperwork. After all of that there was really nothing there that we could find. It all pretty much dissolved from that reason alone—and the interest level was losing steam. We only did it a couple years.”

The article I posted says that the program is still very much alive and operating.

from Wikipedia:

The Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program (AATIP) was a secret investigatory effort funded by the United States government to study unidentified flying objects. It was first made public on 16 December 2017. The program began in 2007, with funding of $22 million over the five years until the available appropriations were ended in 2012.

There is a very well funded military program studying UFO's to this very day. It's off the books as are a bunch of secret programs.
