A Pentagon study released Friday that reviewed nearly a century of reported UFO sightings found no evidence of aliens or extraterrestrial intelligence, a conclusion that contradicts U.S. government assessments that have attracted public attention over the past several decades. Efforts to ensure accuracy of claims are consistent.
The study by the Department of Defense’s Office of Domainwide Anomaly Resolution analyzed U.S. government investigations since 1945 into sightings of unidentified anomalies, commonly known as UFOs. It found no evidence that they were signs of extraterrestrial life, or that the U.S. government and private companies reverse-engineered alien technology and hid it.
“Investigative efforts at all levels have concluded that most sightings are of ordinary objects and phenomena and are the result of misidentification,” said the congressionally mandated report. Another volume of the report focuses on recent research, Will be released later.
U.S. officials have been trying to find answers to numerous reports of UFO sightings for years, but so far have not found any actual evidence of extraterrestrial life.
A 2021 government report examining 144 sightings of aircraft or other devices apparently flying at mysterious speeds or trajectories found no extraterrestrial links, but it concluded little else and called for better data collect.
The issue came into focus again last summer after a retired Air Force intelligence officer testified to Congress that the United States was concealing a long-standing program to retrieve and reverse-engineer UFOs. The Pentagon denied his claims and said in late 2022 that a new Pentagon office set up to track UFO reports – the same report released on Friday – had received “hundreds” of new reports but had found none so far. Any evidence of extraterrestrial life.
The authors of Friday’s report said its purpose was to provide a rigorous scientific analysis of a subject that has long captured the imagination of the American public.
The report states: “AARO recognizes that many people sincerely hold these beliefs based on their perceptions of past experiences, the experiences of others they trust, or media and online channels they believe to be reliable and verifiable sources of information .”
“The proliferation of television shows, books, movies, and a wealth of Internet and social media content centered on UAP-related topics has likely influenced the public conversation about the topic and reinforced these beliefs among certain groups of people,” added.
