The Lunar Eclipse, Seen From the International Space Station

If you were able to witness the lunar eclipse on May 15-16, 2022, the view of the dark red Moon was stunning. But what would such an eclipse look like from space?

Wonder no longer. ESA/Italian astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti captured a series of photos of the lunar eclipse from her unique vantage point aboard the International Space Station (ISS).

ESA posted the photos on Flickr, and Cristoforetti tweeted the images out after the eclipse.

“A partially eclipsed Moon playing hide-and-seek with our solar panel,” she wrote.

Veteran astronaut Cristoforetti has now served on ISS twice. In 2014-2015 she set a record for the longest space mission by a female astronaut, at 200 days, which has since been ‘eclipsed,’ twice. In 2017, NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson was on the ISS for 289 days, and then NASA’s Christina Koch (USA) spent 328 days on the space station in 2019-2022.

A NASA astronaut took this image of the Moon near the beginning of the eclipse. You can see more images of the Moon taken by ISS astronauts at this Flickr page.

I Found A Face Looking At Taiwan On Weather Map, May 19, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: May 19, 2022

Location of discovery: Taiwan

 

Hey all I was looking at a weather map for anomalies and found a big one. I found a face, a human-like angelic face looking down at Taiwan as if assuring it that Taiwan is being looked after by angelic beings. Now last month we had 50 confirmed covid cases per day, today we had 90,000 confirmed cases. Also the threat of China taking over Taiwan is a daily threat over here. But the face, has a look of confidence and happiness as if everything is being dealt with by them. Angels or aliens...its clear that they are a far superior species who are very large, but care about little us. Also did you notice how the air is being exhaled out of the nose of the person and spread across Taiwan? A cleansing, to rid us of covid.

 

Sure feels good to get a sign from them.

Guys I was looking over this gigipan Mars photo when I noticed that not only was there one doorway in it, but there are more than six doorways all around it, and all about the same hight and width. That simple fact makes this a mountain of proof about a small alien species existing about 6 inches tall. There is also a bull sphinx in the far left of the photo. The bull has wings folded up. There is also a long object which has colors like a coral snake. Very odd day indeed. Scott C.

UFO hearing: Pentagon Insists That All Further Talks Are Behind Closed Doors (No Public Allowed) UFO Sightings Daily.

As I have said before, no matter how many hearings the public demands of the US gov, the Pentagon will never allow the truth to get into the hands of the public. Watch this video, and she states exactly the same thing I have said a thousand times before to other on this site and in my videos...UFO tech and alien intelligence is a matter of US national security. What I mean is these things can make a tiny nation like Taiwan suddenly become world dominate over all other countries if we in Taiwan had a trade agreement with alines or had crashed UFOs or aliens working with us. Its a huge security risk to military worldwide, but to the normal people...its just a an excuse to avoid telling the truth for a few more decades.

Five Glowing Lights Over Norman, Oklahoma May 12, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: May 12, 2022

Location of sighting: Norman, Oklahoma, USA

Email report

 

Guys, this is awesome! This raw footage just came and and it shows five glowing objects passing over an eyewitnesses yard. He said the objects move away and then suddenly disappear in the distance. These objects are allowing him to see them. The UFOs want to be seen! They are very close to the power lines and may be trying to tap into our communication networks to learn more about humanity. 

Scott C. Waring - Taiwan 

 

Eyewitness states: 

My wife and I saw an orange in color object flying from the south and disappeared as it traveled north. I have four different videos of four different objects. I was not able to get the first one on video since I did not have my phone. We chalked it up to a shooting star until another one appreard follow by three more objects. It made not sound at all.

Here in this video we have compared Webb's image with an similar image of Hubble telescope. 

Images captured by Webb telescope shows most distant stars and galaxies in the large Magellanic Cloud. In the image below we can see a ring shaped object in the stars forming region of large Magellanic Cloud. 

Previously one such object was seen by the Hubble Telescope and when zooming into a rich star-birth region of the large Magellanic Cloud, we can see in the image below a similar ring shaped object which is the remnant of a supernova named Supernova 1987A captured by Hubble. 

May be the ring shaped object seen in the Webb's image would be something else.

Extraterrestrial discoveries were scarce at a US Congress briefing on UFOs

On Tuesday, the Congress from the US had its first open meeting regarding UFOs after about 50 years, but those who were looking for answers to the frequent sightings from the military of strange objects were disappointed because the defense officials opted to reserve their most juicy material for closed-door sessions.

The leak of 2 new recordings depicting unusual aircraft phenomena was the highlight of the 90-minute briefing in Washington, though one of those recordings was quickly discredited by, the deputy director of navy intelligence, Scott Bray.

The meeting (the previous similar meeting was held back in 1966) comes on the heels of a banner time for UFO believers. The US intelligence issued a seminal study in 2021, that discovered 144 instances of unusual airborne phenomena, just one of those can be clarified.

The story came after US naval pilots openly discussed the encounters, they had with UAPs when one lieutenant, who was now retired, was claiming to have seen unidentified objects every single day for a couple of years above the east coast’s sky.

Bray attempted to explain the government’s probe of UAPs on that Tuesday, following criticism that the Pentagon isn’t treating the matter with enough seriousness, but he also provided the members of an intelligence subcommittee videos of aerial objects.

On one of those videos, shot during the day, there was an object flying by a military plane. The object’s brief presence — it flashed on the screen for a split of a second – confirmed the difficulties in obtaining information on some UAPs, according to Bray.

Another video shot at night from a military jet in 2019, shows triangular forms hovering in the sky. Bray then showed another video displaying the same phenomenon, but with a more conventional explanation that those objects were actually drones, with a triangular shape and otherworldly in motion due to a flaw in the way video was acquired using equipment for night-vision.

The refutation did nothing to dispel claims – including one imposed by committee head Andre Carson – that the Pentagon is uninterested in examining the unexplainable.

Carson, a Democrat from Indiana said that one of Congress’s worries is that the administration, the executive branch, and the two parties have swept fears about UAPs under the brush by concentrating on occurrences that can be clarified and disregarding those that cannot.

He asked Congress what will they say to reassure the US people that they are not just focused on matters that are not complicated and have simple explanations. Although the Pentagon has created a UAP unit – the bureaucratically named Airborne Object Identification and Management Synchronization Group – explore in this sector is yet far from a high priority.

Bray said that the intelligence community simply had to be less open with information at times, and added that they don’t want probable enemies to know precisely what they are able to observe or comprehend or how we get to that conclusion.

The response displayed an arrogance that has irritated for long time those wanting greater transparency – and has sparked a slew of conspiracy theories concerning what the administration may be covering.

Once asked if the Pentagon had any underwater sensors to spot on submerged UAPs – whatever that is in the seas or the oceans, Bray and Ronald Moultrie, the military undersecretary for intelligence and security, showed that resistance to sharing mentioned above.

Moultrie believes it would be better handled in a secret session.

UAP videos shown during 2022 UFO hearing

Although new info remained annoyingly rare, Bray disclosed that the intelligence community has noticed an increase in the number of unregistered and/or unidentifiable aircraft or objects, which he attributes to the de-stigmatization of military encounter reporting and the usage of new systems for detection.

The assessment from 2021 recognized observations of UAPs that seemed to remain motionless in winds above, move counter to the wind, do sudden maneuvers, or travel at high speed, without obvious methods of propulsion, and Bray ruled out a foreign enemy with such technology on that same Tuesday.

Several politicians have publicly voiced displeasure with the novel UAP office’s progress – which has yet to name a director just under a month after its formation — with Kirsten Gillibrand’s assistance. The US senator in NY, told Politico back in May that senator Gillibrand trusts that the department of defense must take this subject a lot more seriousness and get it moving.

The discontent contrasts sharply with the euphoria that greeted the government’s report in 2021. At the period, amateur UAP associations thought that the Pentagon may be more willing to provide its own information and more eager to evaluate amateur investigators’ films and photographs.

However, Moultrie had made it obvious that this would not be the case after he stated that certain people are putting out material that may be regarded as rather egotistic.

As the session came to a conclusion, Carson told his Republican and Democratic colleagues that the issue of UAPs and UFOs is an occasion when they can display some level of cooperation.

For the audience, it was evident that the meeting had created more queries and fury rather than answers. Humans are still far from discovering whether extraterrestrial life exists.

“The hearing was essentially a pleasant chat about how awesome AIMSOG will be one day,” tweeted Alejandro Rojas, a researcher at Enigma Labs, an analytics and community platform for UFOs, and a board member of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies. The public got some answers, but Rojas is not as confident in AIMSOG now as he was before that meeting happened.

A new species called 'stalkers' will supposedly be discovered this year as a so-called time traveller has warned the ground will split open in the US and millions of people around the world will vanish

By Kirsty Card - Video News Reporter

A TikToker who claims to have 'leaked' information from a self-proclaimed time traveller has issued a chilling warning for apocalyptic events that are set to begin this summer.

Kawhi Leonard, also known as 'thehiddengod1', claims in his video taht the ground across the US will split just months before a deadly new species are discovered and millions of people are declared missing.

The terrifying prophecies are said to take place on specific dates between July and October, which TikTok users have been urged to remember.

The clip, which has received over 450,000 likes said: "WARNING: A leaked document from a time traveller has warned us to remember these dates for 2022.

• "July 14th 2022 - 'The great split' America's biggest earthquake.
• "August 9th 2022 - Over 2 million people around the world mysteriously disappear.
• "October 3rd 2022 - Creatures known as stalkers will appear around the globe."

It is unclear whether the spine-chilling warnings are linked but some of Leonard's fans wasted no time, leaving prayers of hope for the future of humanity in the comments.

One wrote: "Only Allah knows what will happen please protect us."

Another commented: "The comment section is now a church."

"God will make sure we're safe," a third replied.

However, other TikTok users didn't seem convinced as they claimed the user had been watching Marvel's Infinity War too much and others said they would only believe it if it was seen on an episode of The Simpsons.

One user said: "Me not believing it. *Writes it down just in case*."

Another wrote: "Bro after watching infinity war."

The news comes after another so-called time traveller "from the year 2236" told their followers a dead celebrity who "faked his death" is going to return in September 2022.

In the clip, watched more than 14 million times since it was uploaded on March 10, the person claims they are going to "prove" their powers with another prediction.

They write: "Some people don't believe I'm a real-time traveller so here are some pretty big events that will happen in 2022."

The TikToker made several claims but added that on "September 16th a very popular musician will come out and admit he faked his own death".

Navy pilot who witnessed infamous declassified 'UFO' sighting said the Tic Tac-shaped phenomena committed an 'act of war' by jamming their radars when they tried to track it

• Former US Navy pilot Commander David Fravor along with three others reported a potential UFO sighting off the coast of California in 2004

• They saw a Tic Tac-shaped object flying in the sky, hurtle down to hover over the Pacific ocean then zoom back into the sky

• He along with others were sent out to track the object, but when they neared it it accelerated and disappeared in 'less than a second'  

• Fravor said the object committed an 'act of war' by jamming Navy radars when they tried to track the object 

By MARLENE LENTHANG FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

A former US Navy pilot is opening up about his infamous alleged ufo sighting off the coast of California in 2004.

Commander David Fravor said he witnessed a Tic Tac-shaped object in the sky in November 10, 2004 performing extraordinary aerial maneuvers that he said no modern human technology was capable of.

'This is not like we saw it and it was gone or I saw lights in the sky and it's gone – we watched this thing on a crystal clear day with four trained observers,' Fravor said in a sit-down interview with Russian-American YouTuber and MIT researcher Lex Fridman on September 8. 

He said the phenomena committed an 'act of war' by jamming the military's radar when they tried to trace it.

Former US Navy pilot Commander David Fravor along with three others reported a potential UFO sighting off the coast of California in 2004. He said on the sighting: 'I don't like to get into little green men but I don't think we've developed it ... I think you can hide things for a while. This is a giant leap in technology'

Video of what the Navy was able to trace of the object was leaked in 2017 and the case was declassified by the Pentagon earlier this year

Electronic jamming is a form of electronic warfare and is illegal in all 50 states. While it’s not always considered an act of war, it is interpreted as hostile.

Video of what the Navy was able to trace of the object was leaked in 2017 and the case was declassified by the Pentagon earlier this year. 

Fravor and others were conducting a routine training mission when the radio operator asked them to check out a mysterious aircraft they had been tracking for two weeks.

The operator said the object would suddenly appear at 80,000 feet, hurtle toward the sea, hover at about 20,000 feet, then shoot back up into the sky. 

Fravor and Commander Jim Slaight and two others were sent out in fighter jets to observe the shape. 

'We see this little white Tic Tac because we’re about 20 feet above it and its going north, south, north, south, and it's abrupt,' he said.

He explained that it didn’t move like helicopters or other aircraft he was familiar with.

The operator said the object would suddenly appear at 80,000 feet, hurtle towards the sea, hover at about 20,000 feet, then shoot back up into the sky

'By this time we’re driving around and we’re just watching this thing and I go, "hey I’m gonna check it out,"' Fravor recalled. 

'It’s aware of us and it goes bloop and start coming up, so it knows that we’re there. This is like five minutes,' he added. 

'I’m going to meet it and I’m probably a half mile away and it’s coming across my nose …and it just accelerates and disappears at about 12,000 feet in less than a half second and it’s gone,' Fravor said.  

'I remember telling the guy in my back sat, "Dude, I dunno about you but I’m pretty weirded out,"' he said in the interview.

Fravor said he and the other jets went down towards the water to see what the object was potentially hovering around as they noticed white water when the object was over it, but it was 'clear blue' when they reached it.

Fravor said the object committed an 'act of war' by jamming Navy radars when they tried to track the object. The 18-year Navy pilot pictured above

After landing Fravor mentioned the UFO to colleague Chad Underwood who successfully located the unidentified object to get video on his radar. But when he attempted to trace the shape, the flying object jammed the radar.  

'When he first sees [the object] he gets an energy lock on it. When he goes to lock it up, now he’s putting a bunch of energy on it. He’s telling the radar, "Stare down the line of sight, whatever is there I want you to grab it and build a trace file on it," which will tell you where it is, how fast it is and the direction that it’s going,' Fravor said. 

'The radar is smart enough that when the signal comes back if it's been messed with, it will tell you - it will give you indications that it's being jammed .... It's being jammed into about every mode you can see ... You can tell it's being jammed.

'When you actively jam another platform, yes it’s technically an act of war,' he added.

When asked if he believes that Tic Tac shape could've been from another planet, Fravor said it could be possible. 

'I don't like to get into little green men but I don't think we've developed it ... I think you can hide things for a while. This is a giant leap in technology,' he said.

Long UFO Observing Nasa Rover May 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighitng: May 2022

Location of sighting: Mars

 

Now this is a head scratcher. This long arm like UFO was seen in the most recent Mars rover photos. I opened an email and someone had found this unique craft. At first I mistakenly thought it might be the rover drone, but on closer inspection I realized it was nothing like it. Similar long arm UFOs have been seen around the world, one was even said have been seen by Buzz Aldrin himself who said he saw a long white arm like object flying past him in space. 100% proof that UFOs are watching the Mars rover.

Five White Orbs Over Bronx, New York May 10, 2022, Video, UFO Sighting News.

Date of sighting: May 10, 2022

Location of sighting: Bronx, New York, USA

Email report: scwaring@yahoo.com 

 

Hey this raw footage is mind blowing. An eyewitness on May 10th caught sight of five glowing orbs for a few minutes and sent in some footage to me today. These objects are visible for a little bit, but then fade off and disappear at different times. For a sighting like this to happen I would think a lot more videos of this would be appearing on the Internet, but this seems to be the first of them. Hopefully, more will follow. There are 1.47 million people living in the Bronx, so there has to be more footage on the way. If so, then this is 100% proof that aliens are trying to wake the world up to their existence.

Ancient Reptilian Face Reveals New Alien Species Exists On Mars! UFO Sighting News.

Date of discovery: May 18, 2022

Location of discovery: Mars

Source photo:

Hey guys, I like to search over Mars photos and this is one of the most recent ones that came out just a few days ago. This Mars rover photo has an object which is a sculpture of a face. Archeologists in Egypt live to find a sculpture of a face, because it tells them what that person looked like, who they were, the status of the individual in the society and so much more. This face here also tells me a lot. The face is that of a reptilian. The reptilian more closely resembles the face of a frog than a lizard. Most people assume reptilian species will always be lizard-like, but this is proof that other reptilian species exist too. 

 

I have a masters degree in counseling education, I understand that many people try to claim seeing a face is pareidolia. I have to say that the CIA has been spreading that word for decades to try to hide the truth from the public. Also the word pareidolia allows a person to feel secure, like a blanket to hold onto. This is not imagination, it is solid fact. If you can't believe your own eyes, then you can't believe yourself...due to lack of self confidence.

In a an open hearing on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) before the House Intelligence Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence, and Counterproliferation Subcommittee on May 17, 2022, Deputy Director of Naval Intelligence Mr. Scott Bray shared this video of a US. Naval aviator encounter with an unknown object (UAP) in a fleeting pass. 

This video, captured by the pilot in the cockpit of a Navy fighter jet, demonstrates the typical speed at which military aircraft may approach an unknown object.

   

Furthermore, for those interested in Congress' big hearing on UFOs regarding the open portion of the hearing, see the video link below, which by the way is not interesting at all, since the real deal on the UFO/UAP phenomenon is kept secret from the public as the subcommittee will hold a closed, classified briefing on this issue. 

On Tuesday, May 17, 2022, at 9:00 a.m. ET, the House Intelligence Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence, and Counterproliferation Subcommittee, chaired by Congressman André Carson (D-Ind.) will hold an open hearing on unidentified aerial phenomena.

Location of sighting: Venice Beach, Florida, USA

Email Report

 

Now I use to work on B1 Lancer Bombers, B-1 and KC-135s back in the Air Force, I know I've been out of the military for 25 years, but I have never seen such a craft as this one here. This is in the same location where Dr Steven Greer saw several glowing orange UFOs over the ocean about 5 years ago. Strange also, a military plane passed incredibly close to this craft, and as it did, the UFO moved into a small cloud for cover. Absolute fantastic catch. 100% proof that aliens are over Florida.

Congress will hold its first public UFO hearing in 50 YEARS today: Two top intelligence officials will testify on 'unidentified aerial phenomena' and their potential national security risks

• On May 17 at 10 a.m.,  a House subcommittee will hear from two top defense officials on reports of 'unidentified aerial phenomena'

• Last June, Congress requested a report on 'unidentified aerial phenomena,' and DNI offered an assessment focusing on 144 incidents dating back to 2004 

• The report said data was 'largely inconclusive' but most of the incidents definitely involved 'physical objects'

•  In 18 of the incidents, spotters 'reported unusual UAP movement patterns or flight characteristics'

By MORGAN PHILLIPS, POLITICS REPORTER FOR DAILYMAIL.COM 

A House subcommittee is prepping to hold its first hearing open to the public on UFOs in more than 50 years on Tuesday, with two top intelligence officials set to testify. 

On Tuesday at 9 a.m. the House Intelligence Committee's Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence, and Counterproliferation Subcommittee will delve into details on reports of 'unidentified aerial phenomena.' Such high-level conversations have for the past half century been reserved for closed-door meetings among high-ranking military officials. 

'The American people expect and deserve their leaders in government and intelligence to seriously evaluate and respond to any potential national security risks — especially those we do not fully understand,' the panel chair, Rep. André Carson, said in a statement on Tuesday.

Ronald Moultrie, the Pentagon's top intelligence official, and Scott Bray, the deputy director of naval intelligence, will testify before the panel. 

Last June, Congress requested a report on 'unidentified aerial phenomena,' another term for UFO, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) offered a preliminary assessment focusing on 144 incidents dating back to 2004. DNI was only able to explain one. 

The report said data was 'largely inconclusive' but most of the incidents definitely involved 'physical objects.'  Many of the sightings were reported by military pilots. 

'The American people expect and deserve their leaders in government and intelligence to seriously evaluate and respond to any potential national security risks — especially those we do not fully understand,' the panel chair, Rep. André Carson, said in a statement

In 18 of the incidents, spotters 'reported unusual UAP movement patterns or flight characteristics,' including objects that seemed to be flying 'without discernible means of propulsion.'

'Some UAP appeared to remain stationary in winds aloft, move against the wind, maneuver abruptly, or move at considerable speed, without discernible means of propulsion,' the report said. 'In a small number of cases, military aircraft systems processed radio frequency energy associated with UAP sightings.'

After the woefully insufficient report, the Pentagon created a new office to study such incidents - the Airborne Object Identification and Management Synchronization Group (AOIMSG). 

While such unidentified objects could be foreign military aircraft or possibly secret domestic aircraft, today's hearing suggests that the phenomena has become so big that U.S. defense officials can no longer keep it from the public. 

Pentagon press secretary John Kirby, asked about the hearing last week, said:  'We are absolutely committed to being as transparent as we can with the American people and with members of Congress about our perspectives on this and what we're going to try to do to make sure we have a better process for identifying these phenomena, analyzing that information in a more proactive, coordinated way than it's been done in the past, and that we also are doing what we need to do to mitigate any safety issues as many of these phenomena have been sighted in training ranges and in training environments.'

Asked if there was any concern the UAPs could be foreign adversaries, he said: 'We don't have a view on that,' but added that the Pentagon was working to form a more organized reporting system. 

'It's been sort of ad hoc in the past, in terms of a pilot here and a pilot there seeing something and the reporting procedures haven't been consistent,' he added. 

Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who chairs the House Intelligence Committee, said the purpose of the hearing was to shed light on 'one of the great mysteries of our time and to break the cycle of excessive secrecy and speculation with truth and transparency.' 

This file video grab image obtained April 28, 2020 courtesy of the US Department of Defense shows part of an unclassified video taken by Navy pilots that have circulated for years showing interactions with 'unidentified aerial phenomena'.

In 2017, Lue Elizondo, a senior staffer at the Pentagon, rose to fame after he helped leak to the New York Times extraordinary videos from US fighter jets of tic tac-shaped UFOs moving with incredible speed and agility near aircraft carriers off the East and West coasts in 2004 and 2015

The last time Congress had such a hearing was in 1970, when the Air Force closed down Project Blue Book, a public investigation into UFOs spearheaded by then-House Republican minority leader Gerald Ford. 

In 2017, Lue Elizondo, a senior staffer at the Pentagon, rose to fame after he helped leak to the New York Times extraordinary videos from US fighter jets of tic tac-shaped UFOs moving with incredible speed and agility near aircraft carriers off the East and West coasts in 2004 and 2015. 

Elizondo ran a secret government UFO monitoring program in Reid's department until 2017, but left the $22million government program after what he has termed excessive secrecy and internal opposition to the project.

Elizondo, a former UFO secret program chief in the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security (OUSD), has said he quit the Pentagon and helped leak the 'tic tac' videos because his military bosses refused to acknowledge his severe security concerns over these powerful 'craft' violating US airspace. 

Elizondo said last June when the report detailing 144 incidents was released to Congress that it was just the tip of the iceberg, that it was important to consider all possibilities, including extraterrestrial or trans-dimensional origin. 

'This is something that could involve outer space, interspace, or the space in between, and that's why we've always said keep all options on the table,' he said on Fox News last June.

'The more we learn about this remarkable universe we live in, the more we realize our current understanding of the construct of the cosmos is constantly changing and evolving with new information and new knowledge that we get,' added Elizondo.

'People jump to speculation that it's from the Pleiades or something like that, when in fact one of the hypothesis when I was in AATIP was this could be as natural to Earth as we are, but we are just at a point where technologically we aren't advanced enough we can collect information on it and begin to try to figure out what it is,' he said.

'There's been another hypothesis that these things are possibly from underwater and as outlandish as it may seem, there is some anecdotal evidence that supports all of these observations, so what we want to do is try to get as much data on the table as we can before we start eliminating,' said Elizondo.

Concerns that UFOs have never-before-seen capabilities that can outmaneuver and outperform the US's most advanced military technology prompted Congress to call a historic UFO hearing, reports TheSun. 

The House Intelligence Subcommittee will host the first congressional hearings on UFOs in more than 50 years Tuesday., May 17, 2022, Chaired by Rep. André Carson (D-Ind.), the hearing will include testimony from top U.S. intelligence and defense officials and follows last year's key government report on unidentified aerial phenomena.

  

Jeremy Corbell says Tuesday's congressional hearing on UFOs could confirm decades-old theories on mysterious sightings.

 

Ben Hansen, host of "UFO Witness" on Discovery + and UFO expert Nick Pope believe the US government knows more than it is letting on, and the truth could be revealed at Tuesday's congressional hearing.
