That's the tagline of a famous internet meme based on Giorgio Tsoukalos' History channel show, " Ancient Aliens ." But now it seems to be the official United States government line, too.
Just this past week came the latest slow-roll disclosure about UFOs and aliens in The New York Times , which, in the words of tech blog Gizmodo , "casually drops another story about how aliens are probably real."
There are even reports that the Pentagon has obtained vehicles or parts of vehicles "not made on this Earth," though former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid was either misquoted confirming the story or walked back his comments to that effect later.

OK. To everyone still here, why is Bob Lazar on my mind? Because I just read a New York Times story — “No Longer in Shadows, Pentagon’s U.F.O. Unit Will Make Some Findings Public” — that includes a buried nugget about how astrophysicist and Pentagon contractor Eric W. Davis gave a classified briefing to government officials in March about retrieved “off-world vehicles not made on this earth.”
Canadian UFO sightings down in 2019, but expected to rise amid coronavirus pandemic |
UFO sightings in Canada hit a 10-year low in 2019, but the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and exciting new celestial phenomena lead experts to suspect numbers will take off.
Since 1989, Winnipeg-based Ufology Research has compiled sightings of unexplained flying objects. Last year, there were 849 UFO sightings in Canada.
"Most of the cases that we receive are things like airplanes and planets and stars or, perhaps, a fireball or a satellite," said Canadian UFO Survey research co-ordinator Chris Rutkowski.
The alien in the woods: how an unsolved UFO mystery inspired Amazon's sci-fi hit The Vast of Night
After Arnold spoke to the media, the term "flying saucer" became au courant. (It first appeared in print two days after the sighting, on June 26.) The Air Force appeared, and interviewed the pilot; eventually, they judged that he'd seen a "mirage". At the same time, they were launching a series of classified probes that would last for decades to come. And meanwhile, among the American public, the sightings began to grow.
The Vast of Night, the debut film by Andrew Patterson, has arrived on Amazon Prime; on its appearance at Sundance last year, it won acclaim from the likes of Steven Soderbergh. It's saturated with a love of UFO lore, and of the post-war era where the tales began. The film has a small budget (under $1 million), a small-town setting (New Mexico) and a smallish cast (two leads, and a few others with sizeable roles). The conceit is small as well, with a single plotline to the end.
This may worth something:
Does Hangar 18, Legendary Alien Warehouse, Exist? - HISTORY
Many of the rumors surrounding Wright-Patt, as it’s known for short, involve what might have gone on inside a particular building, known as Hangar 18. UFO enthusiasts believe the government hid physical evidence from their investigations—including flying saucer debris, extraterrestrial remains and even captured aliens—in this mysterious warehouse, specifically inside a sealed, highly guarded location dubbed “the Blue Room.”
Big Tech Hearings, Germany, Vietnam Outbreak: Your Thursday Briefing - The New York Times
We're covering tech moguls getting grilled in Congress, the U.S. pulling 12,000 troops from Germany and a surprising virus surge in Vietnam .
The chief executives of Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon appeared before Congress on Wednesday , grilled for more than five hours by a House of Representatives antitrust panel about the tactics that led to their dominance of the digital economy.
Appearing via videoconference, the executives — Jeff Bezos of Amazon, Tim Cook of Apple, Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook and Sundar Pichai of Google — were asked whether their companies had harmed the economy, stifled rivals and left consumers with few choices. All denied those claims.
How to See a UFO with David J. Halperin - INDY Week
In 2018, Halperin fictionalized his personal story of family trauma and cosmic awe in Journal of a UFO Investigator . Set in 1966, the novel tells the story of teenager Danny Shapiro, a brainy kid caring for his terminally ill mother while exploring the nascent world of ufology.
Now, he's back on the bookshelves with Intimate Alien: The Hidden Story of the UFO (Stanford University Press). A nonfiction exploration of UFO sightings as mythical and psychological phenomena, it's a mid-air collision of rigorous academic writing, vivid storytelling, historical detail, and some delightfully strange conjecture.
