Hearing on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena

Congress holds hearing on UFOs for first time in 50 years

Experts testify about strange objects in the sky and the need for further investigation

A congressional hearing on unidentified anomalous phenomena, commonly known as UFOs, was held on Tuesday, May 17, 2022. This was the first such hearing in over 50 years.

The hearing was held by the House Intelligence Subcommittee on Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence, and Counterproliferation. The subcommittee is chaired by Rep. André Carson (D-IN).

The hearing featured testimony from several experts on UFOs, including:

• Ronald Moultrie, Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security
• Scott Bray, Deputy Director of Naval Intelligence
• Sue Gough, Scientist and UFO Researcher
• Christopher Mellon, Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence

The experts discussed the increasing number of UFO sightings in recent years, as well as the challenges of investigating these sightings. They also called for further investigation into UFOs, including the creation of a new government agency to study the phenomenon.

The hearing was a significant event in the history of UFO research. It was the first time that Congress had held a hearing on UFOs in over 50 years, and it reflected the growing interest in the phenomenon from both the public and the government.

The hearing is likely to lead to further investigation into UFOs, and it could potentially lead to the creation of a new government agency to study the phenomenon. This would be a major step forward in the search for answers about UFOs.
