LIVE: US Congress Holds Second Hearing on UFOs in Exposing Truth with ‘Expert Witnesses’ | NASA LIVE | CNBC TV18
he Pentagon’s latest report on UFOs has revealed hundreds of new reports of unidentified and unexplained aerial phenomena but no indications suggesting an extraterrestrial origin.
The review includes hundreds of cases of misidentified balloons, birds and satellites as well as some that defy easy explanation, such as a near-miss between a commercial airliner and a mysterious object off the coast of New York.
While it isn’t likely to settle any debates over the existence of alien life, the report reflects heightened public interest in the topic and the government’s efforts to provide some answers. Its publication comes a day after House lawmakers called for greater government transparency during a hearing on unidentified anomalous phenomena, or UAPs — the government’s term for UFOs.
Journalist Michael Shellenberger tells members of the House of Representatives the orb was "joined by another orb that briefly comes into the frame from the left before rapidly moving again out of the frame".
A video showing a "white orb" UFO coming out of the ocean off Kuwait has been found on the US Department of Defense's own network, a congressional hearing has heard. Mr Shellenberger, the founder of the Public news service, said the 13-minute-long high-definition, colour video was of the "orb" 20 miles off the Kuwait coast and was filmed from a helicopter.
Giving evidence to House representatives on unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs), the now-preferred term for UFOs, journalist Michael Shellenberger said he had been told of the footage by a source in recent weeks.
U.S. House Oversight Committee holds a hearing on reports of “unidentified anomalous phenomena” (UFOs), with former Department of Defense, NASA and others.
The United States Congress will hold a hearing on Wednesday to discuss the topic of UFOs that some lawmakers are hopeful will lead to new information on a subject that is the focus of many conspiracy theorists but has also recently attracted serious attention from government officials.
The House oversight committee’s hearing will be titled Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena: Exposing the Truth. The title refers to UAPs, the new preferred acronym for UFOs, which has become an increasingly popular term among believers – and US officials – to describe mysterious airborne objects.
The hearing will be the second congressional hearing the US Congress has put together in order to “further pull back the curtain on secret UAP research programs conducted by the US government, and undisclosed findings they have yielded”, according to a House statement.
Wednesday’s hearing comes more than a year after the Pentagon was accused of running a secret UFO retrieval program by whistleblower David Grusch, though no evidence has ever emerged to back up these claims.
The hearing will be led by Republican representatives Nancy Mace and Glenn Grothman. The representatives argue in the House’s statement that Americans are frustrated with the lack of transparency by the US government on the topic of UAPs.
