UFOs are the story of the century — wake up, America! (thehill.com)

The author argues that the recent Congressional hearing on UFOs featured credible testimony from military witnesses that UFOs exist and the government has covered up information about them for decades. The author, a retired Navy admiral, vouches for the integrity of the witnesses. He believes society should demand that the government disclose what it knows about UFOs. This could lead to scientific advances that transform our understanding of physics and the universe. Studying UFOs could also improve international security and cooperation. The author contends that failing to study UFOs would be arrogant given how little we understand about the universe.

But there are honestly a shit ton of assumptions in this statement. Who says they are traveling themselves? This might just be "scouts" or drones doing basic survey and mapping of the universe and might be automates.

Don't get me wrong, i beleive this is BS. But assuming they actually want to land, or that they need to, is a bit of a fallacy the we tend to get stuck on

I was under the impression that there were passengers. I recall from the testimony something about non-human-biologics being inside, or something like that.

These hearings and there witnesses doesn't really seem to cover one event just, but a continuous effort and knowledge from the military to keep it under wraps. Just 3 people with knowledge of talking to people that know about multiple events (sounds legit hrm). One event they have talked about is about an alleged landing with alleged biologics, but they are also referencing other video releases over the past few years from fighter jets
