    A New Front in the Fight for Our Planet:

    Why Environmental Organizations Should Pursue UAP Disclosure

    Submitted t0 the Montana Environmental Information Center

    By Richard O’Connor, M.D.

    For decades, organizations like the Montana Environmental Information Center (MEIC) have waged courageous legal and legislative battles against the coal and petroleum industries. MEIC’s attorneys have walked into courtrooms in Helena, MT and Washington, D.C., armed with scientific data, public trust doctrine arguments, and an abiding love for Montana’s rivers, skies, and communities. Those battles have mattered enormously, and the people who fought them deserve every ounce of credit we can give them.

    But I want to ask a harder question — one that I believe every serious environmentalist needs to sit with: What if we are now spending our finite time, money, and political energy fighting the wrong war?

    What if, while we are in court battling over the margins of coal ash regulations and natural gas pipeline permits, the key to ending the fossil fuel era entirely is locked away in a classified government vault — and has been for decades?

    I am not speaking in metaphor. I am speaking about Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (aka UFOs), and about the extraordinary physics that a team of credentialed scientists has now published in a peer-reviewed journal. The numbers they have produced should stop every environmentalist cold.

    The Day the Physics Changed

    On November 14, 2004, the USS Princeton — a Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser equipped with one of the most sophisticated radar systems in the world, the SPY-1B — was conducting routine training exercises off the coast of Southern California with Carrier Strike Group Eleven, which included the nuclear aircraft carrier USS Nimitz. Over the preceding two weeks, Princeton’s radar operators had been tracking objects behaving in ways that defied any known explanation: objects appearing at altitudes of 80,000 feet or higher, then dropping to near sea level in seconds, with no sonic booms, no heat signatures, and no exhaust.

    On that November morning, the objects returned. The Princeton’s radar tracked one of them drop from 28,000 feet to sea level — approximately five miles of altitude — in 0.78 seconds. That’s an average velocity of 24,475 mph. The ship’s captain ordered an intercept. Commander David Fravor and Lieutenant Commander Alex Dietrich of the U.S. Navy, both experienced combat aviators, were dispatched in F/A-18F Super Hornets. What they found hovering above a churning disturbance on the ocean surface was a smooth, white, wingless, cylindrical object roughly 40 feet long — approximately the size of an F/A-18 itself — with no visible flight control surfaces, no exhaust ports, no wings, and no discernible means of propulsion. The object accelerated away at a speed that Commander Fravor, with decades of military aviation experience, described as unlike anything he had ever seen.

    A second pilot, Lieutenant Chad Underwood, captured a similar encounter on his aircraft’s Advanced Targeting Forward-Looking Infrared (ATFLIR) pod — footage that the U.S. Department of Defense officially declassified and authenticated in 2020. That video, which shows the object moving against the wind with no heat trail and no propulsion signature before abruptly departing the frame, is now part of the public record.

    The incident would likely have remained a classified curiosity except for what came next: a group of credentialed scientists decided to do what scientists do. They ran the numbers.

    The Physics No One Is Talking About

    In 2019, Dr. Kevin H. Knuth, a professor of physics at the University at Albany (State University of New York) and former NASA research scientist, together with Robert M. Powell and Peter A. Reali of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies, published a paper titled “Estimating Flight Characteristics of Anomalous Unidentified Aerial Vehicles” in the peer-reviewed journal Entropy (Vol. 21, No. 10, 939). The paper is open access and freely available through the U.S. National Library of Medicine’s PubMed Central database.

    Dr. Knuth and his colleagues did not speculate. They used established physics, conservative assumptions, and standard kinematic equations to calculate what the observed maneuvers of these objects would require in terms of acceleration and energy. The results are staggering.

    The Tic Tac object tracked by the USS Princeton’s radar during its 0.78-second descent from 28,000 feet was calculated to have undergone an acceleration of approximately 5,880 times the force of Earth’s gravity — written as 5,880 g. For perspective, the human body begins to lose consciousness at approximately 5 g. The airframe of an advanced military fighter jet is stressed to withstand perhaps 9 g briefly. A conventional aircraft or missile subjected to 5,880 g would be reduced to fragments in an instant. The Tic Tac exhibited no such structural failure. It left no sonic boom. It left no heat signature commensurate with the energy its movement implied. It simply moved.

    The authors of the paper went further. They estimated the peak power output required to execute maneuvers of this nature. Their calculations, accounting for a craft of the observed size, produced an estimated power output of approximately 1,100 billion watts for specific maneuvers — with other maneuver sequences requiring estimates that reach into the tens of thousands of billions of watts.

    To grasp what that number means, consider this: a single household incandescent light bulb consumes 60 watts. A typical American home uses roughly 1,200 watts on average. The entire nuclear power generating capacity of the United States — every nuclear plant operating in this country — produces approximately 100 billion watts of electricity in total. But the comparison that should truly stop you cold is this: according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the total electricity-generating capacity of the United States from every source combined — every natural gas plant, every coal plant, every nuclear reactor, every wind turbine, every solar panel, every hydroelectric dam — amounts to approximately 1,190 billion watts. The power estimated for a single maneuver of a single craft the size of a fighter jet is nearly equal to the entire generating capacity of the United States of America. All of it. At once.

    The paper’s conclusions are characteristically restrained in the way that good science demands. The authors write that the extreme estimated flight characteristics reveal that these observations are either fabricated or seriously in error, or that these craft exhibit technology far more advanced than any known craft on Earth. Given the weight of the witness testimony — which we will examine next — the authors favor the latter conclusion.

    The Witnesses Are Not Cranks

    Environmental advocates are accustomed to dealing with the credibility wars that industry wages against scientific witnesses. We know what it looks like when fossil fuel companies try to discredit researchers, and we know how important witness credibility is to every argument we make in court and in the legislature.

    By any standard we would apply to testimony in an environmental proceeding, the witnesses to the 2004 Nimitz encounters are exceptionally credible.

    Commander David Fravor retired from the U.S. Navy after 18 years of service, including combat deployments. He has spoken publicly and repeatedly about what he witnessed on November 14, 2004, describing an object that appeared to react to his aircraft, mirroring his movements before departing at a speed he described as instantaneous compared to anything in his experience. Lieutenant Commander Alex Dietrich, his wingman that day, has provided independent corroborating testimony. Lieutenant Chad Underwood, who captured the FLIR video, has spoken in detail about the object’s failure to produce any heat signature in the infrared spectrum consistent with any known form of propulsion.

    The radar operators aboard the USS Princeton had been tracking anomalous objects for approximately two weeks before the November 14 intercept. Senior Chief Operations Specialist Kevin Day, who has spoken publicly about his experience, tracked the objects on the Princeton’s SPY-1B radar over that extended period, watching them behave in ways that he could not reconcile with any known aircraft. The SPY-1B is not a consumer product. It is one of the most sophisticated phased-array radar systems in the U.S. military arsenal, designed specifically to discriminate real targets from noise and electronic countermeasures.

    The encounter was cross-corroborated by multiple sensor platforms simultaneously: the Princeton’s surface radar, the airborne radar of an E-2C Hawkeye early warning aircraft, the F/A-18s’ onboard radar, and the ATFLIR infrared imaging system. Dr. Knuth and his colleagues note explicitly in their paper that they selected cases for analysis specifically because they involved multiple professional witnesses observing the UAV in multiple modalities — sight, radar, and infrared imaging simultaneously — making fabrication or simple misperception extraordinarily unlikely.

    In December 2017, the New York Times broke the story of a classified Defense Department program called the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), which had been studying UAP encounters in secret. This was followed in 2020 by the Pentagon’s official authentication of three UAP videos, including the Nimitz FLIR footage. In 2022, Congress established the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) specifically to investigate UAP incidents. In 2023 and 2024, multiple members of Congress held public hearings at which former military and intelligence officials testified under oath about the existence of UAP programs and, in the case of former intelligence official David Grusch, about alleged government possession of non-human craft, alien bodies (“biologics”), and materials.

    We are not talking about fringe claims. We are talking about a subject that has moved into the domain of serious congressional oversight, peer-reviewed scientific literature, and authenticated Department of Defense documentation.

    What This Means for the Planet

    Now let us return to the question that ought to matter most to every person who reads this magazine.

    The climate crisis is, at its foundation, an energy crisis. Everything we burn — coal, natural gas, oil — we burn because we need energy. We need energy to heat our homes, power our factories, run our transportation systems, and sustain our food supply. The fossil fuel industry does not survive because people love carbon emissions. It survives because it has, for over a century, offered the most energy-dense, transportable, and economically accessible fuel source humanity has possessed.

    Everything MEIC does — every lawsuit, every legislative intervention, every public comment against a new mine or pipeline — is, at its core, an attempt to make fossil fuels more expensive and more difficult to develop, in the hope that we can hold back the tide long enough for alternatives to become economically viable. It is important work. It is necessary work.

    But it is also, increasingly, a rearguard action. The fossil fuel industry has resources that dwarf those of every environmental organization in Montana combined. Every courtroom victory we achieve is met by industry with an appeal, a regulatory workaround, or a lobbying campaign in the next legislative session. We win battles. The planet keeps warming.

    Now consider the possibility — seriously, soberly, as the scientists are beginning to do — that there are craft flying through our skies that are generating power on the order of 1,100 billion watts from a propulsion system that leaves no exhaust, no heat dump, and no sonic boom. Whatever is powering those objects, it is clearly not combustion. It is not nuclear fission in any configuration we understand. It is, based on the physics, something categorically beyond our current technological vocabulary.

    If that technology could be (or currently is) understood — even partially — it would represent the most significant scientific and engineering development in the history of our species. A propulsion and energy system that can produce thousands of billions of watts from an object the size of a small aircraft, with zero detectable emissions, would make every coal plant, every gas well, every oil pipeline as obsolete as the horse and buggy. Not marginally cleaner. Not incrementally more efficient. Obsolete.

    The fossil fuel industry would not survive contact with such technology. MEIC would not need to fight any more pipeline battles. Montana’s rivers and skies would not need defending from extraction industries that would simply have no customers.

    The Argument for a Strategic Pivot

    I am not suggesting that MEIC shut down its legal operations tomorrow. I am suggesting that the organization, and the broader environmental movement, needs to begin treating UAP disclosure as an environmental issue — because it is, potentially, the most consequential environmental issue of our time.

    What would that look like in practice?

    It would mean demanding, in MEIC’s public communications and legislative advocacy, that the U.S. government fully disclose what it knows about UAP propulsion systems. It would mean joining the growing chorus of voices — including members of Congress from both parties — calling for the release of classified materials related to UAP technology. It would mean funding or supporting scientific research, like the work of Dr. Knuth and his colleagues, that takes this subject seriously as a matter of physics rather than folklore.

    It would mean recognizing that the peer-reviewed science already exists. Dr. Knuth’s paper is not a speculative document. It is a careful application of Newtonian mechanics to observed data, published in a legitimate scientific journal, indexed in the National Library of Medicine, and freely available for anyone to read. The paper concludes that these craft exhibit technology far more advanced than anything on Earth, and it invites the scientific community to take that conclusion seriously.

    It would mean having the intellectual courage to say, publicly, what the physics implies: that somewhere — whether in classified government archives, in the hands of private defense contractors, or in the materials that witnesses like David Grusch have described under oath — there may exist evidence of energy and propulsion technology that could, if disclosed and made available to scientists, end the fossil fuel era within a generation.

    Environmental organizations are not strangers to courage. MEIC has taken on coal companies, oil pipelines, and hostile state legislatures with limited resources and enormous tenacity. That same tenacity, directed at the question of what our government knows about non-human technology and energy systems, could open a door that no amount of courtroom litigation has ever been able to open.

    A Word About Credibility

    I anticipate the objection. It goes like this: If MEIC starts talking about UFOs, we will lose credibility with the policymakers, judges, and journalists we need to take us seriously on climate and environmental issues.

    This objection deserves a direct answer.

    Fifteen years ago, the suggestion that UAP should be taken seriously as a scientific subject would have been professionally risky for any credentialed researcher. Today, a professor of physics at a State University of New York campus has published peer-reviewed work on the subject. The House Committee on Oversight has held multiple hearings. The Pentagon has authenticated video footage. Former senior intelligence officials have testified under oath. The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics has begun issuing statements acknowledging the scientific significance of the data.

    The credibility risk has changed. What would have seemed eccentric in 2005 is, in 2026, a matter of active congressional investigation and published scientific literature. The question is no longer whether UAP are real. The Pentagon has told us they are real. The question is what they are and — critically — what they can teach us.

    An environmental organization that says, clearly and soberly, “We believe that the peer-reviewed scientific evidence regarding UAP flight characteristics demands that our government disclose what it knows about these propulsion systems, because that knowledge may be the key to ending the fossil fuel era” is not making a fringe argument. It is making a logical argument, grounded in published physics, from a position of principled advocacy for the planet.

    That is exactly what MEIC has always done.

    Montana Is Already in the Crosshairs — And the Government Knows It

    There is one more dimension of this story that belongs in any honest conversation about Montana’s environment, and it is perhaps the most sobering of all.

    Malmstrom Air Force Base, located just outside Great Falls, is home to the 341st Missile Wing, which operates and maintains approximately 150 Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missiles dispersed in silos across a vast swath of the Montana plains — in Cascade, Fergus, Judith Basin, Meagher, Wheatland, Golden Valley, and Musselshell counties, among others. These weapons, each carrying a nuclear warhead of enormous destructive power, make Montana one of the most strategically significant — and strategically targeted — pieces of real estate on the planet. If the United States and Russia or China were ever to exchange nuclear strikes, Montana would not be a bystander. It would be among the first places on Earth to be hit, and hit repeatedly.

    Every river MEIC has defended, every wilderness it has protected, every community it has helped shield from toxic contamination — all of it exists within the blast and fallout radius of what would happen to this state in a nuclear exchange. Environmental law, however well crafted, offers no protection against a 300-kiloton warhead. This is the ultimate threat to Montana’s environment, and it is one that almost no environmental organization in the country is talking about in connection with UAP.

    They should be. Because UAP have a documented history of showing up at Malmstrom — and they have not been friendly to the missiles.

    In March 1967, then-Lieutenant Robert Salas was on duty as a deputy missile combat crew commander, stationed 60 feet underground in a launch control facility at Malmstrom AFB. In the early morning hours, his flight security controller called from the surface, reporting strange lights in the sky making maneuvers no known aircraft could perform — stopping on a dime, reversing course, moving in total silence. Salas told him to keep watch. Minutes later, the controller called again, his voice frantic: a large, glowing, pulsating red oval-shaped object, roughly 30 to 40 feet in diameter, was hovering directly over the facility’s front gate. Guards had drawn their weapons. Salas woke his commanding officer. And then, one by one, alarms began flashing on the launch control console. All ten of the nuclear-armed Minuteman ICBMs under the facility’s control went to a “no-go” status — unable to launch.

    Eight days earlier, on March 16, an almost identical event had occurred at another Malmstrom launch control facility — Echo Flight — where ten more missiles had simultaneously gone offline while security personnel reported a UAP hovering directly above one of the launch sites. In total, at least twenty nuclear-armed missiles under Malmstrom’s control were disabled during a roughly two-week period in March 1967, coinciding directly with documented UAP sightings at the facilities.

    The Air Force investigated. The Boeing company, which manufactured the Minuteman systems, was brought in to determine what had caused the shutdowns. Their conclusion, according to subsequent accounts, was that the guidance and control systems (“logic couplers”) had been disrupted by an external electromagnetic signal — one that had penetrated deep underground through jamming systems designed to prevent exactly that kind of intrusion. No official report was published , nor was any conventional explanation ever publicly confirmed. Salas and other personnel were ordered by Air Force investigators to sign non-disclosure agreements and never speak of the incidents. Salas honored that silence for nearly thirty years, finally breaking it in 1996 after discovering a published reference to the incidents in a UFO research book. He has since testified publicly before Congress, signed sworn affidavits, and written three books on the subject.

    Salas is not alone. Captain David Schindele was a Minuteman ICBM launch crew commander and deputy commander stationed at Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota in September 1966 — just months before the Malmstrom incidents. On his very first duty shift at a launch control facility near Mohall, he was met by security personnel who described an object, estimated to be 80 to 100 feet wide, with bright flashing lights, that had hovered just outside the perimeter fence during the night. Every one of the ten nuclear missiles at that facility had been taken offline while the object was present. Schindele and everyone who witnessed the event were told, in no uncertain terms, that it had never happened — that they were never to speak of it. He carried that secret for nearly forty years. He has since written a book titled It Never Happened, Volume 1: U.S. Air Force UFO Cover-up Revealed and has testified at public forums including the Citizens Hearing on UFO Disclosure held at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.

    Former nuclear missile targeting officer Captain Robert Jamison, also stationed at Malmstrom in that period, independently corroborated the pattern. He was dispatched on one occasion to re-target missiles at the Oscar Flight launch facility that had inexplicably gone offline, only to learn upon arrival that the county sheriff had reported a UFO in the area at the same time the missiles failed. Jamison’s summary, offered at the 2021 National Press Club press conference alongside Salas and Schindele, was blunt: “Even though I never saw a flying saucer or a UFO, I do know they exist because they knocked down our missiles. That just doesn’t happen every day.”

    The pattern of UAP incidents at nuclear weapons facilities is not limited to Montana and North Dakota in the 1960s. It stretches across decades and continents. Dr. James Lacatski, the Defense Intelligence Agency rocket scientist and intelligence analyst who designed and managed the U.S. government’s largest acknowledged UAP investigation program — the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program, or AAWSAP — has stated publicly that UAP interventions at nuclear weapons facilities have occurred not once or twice, but “dozens of times”. He made that statement during an appearance on Weaponized, the investigative podcast hosted by filmmaker Jeremy Corbell and award-winning investigative journalist George Knapp. Almost none of these incidents have ever been officially disclosed to the public, precisely because they are classified. The men and women who witnessed them were ordered to silence.

    What is the message in all of this? Captain Salas, who has thought about little else for thirty years, believes he knows. When asked at a congressional hearing what he thought the disabling of nuclear missiles was meant to communicate, he was direct: the visitors, in his view, were sending a message about nuclear weapons — a message that our most destructive technology is known to others, that it is being watched, and that its continued existence is, at minimum, a matter of concern to intelligences beyond our own.

    Whether one accepts that interpretation or not, the environmental implications are stark, and they are entirely separate from any question about the origin of these craft. Montana’s Minuteman missiles are, today, primary targets for any adversary contemplating a first strike against U.S. nuclear capabilities. If those missiles were ever to become the aiming targets for Russian or Chinese ICBMs — and military planners on all sides agree that they would be — the environmental devastation visited upon Montana would be devastating and permanent. The rivers, the wilderness areas, the air quality, the human communities that MEIC has spent decades protecting: all of it would cease to exist in any meaningful sense.

    This threat is not on the radar of environmental organizations. It is not the subject of any lawsuit MEIC has filed, any legislative testimony it has delivered, or any public comment it has submitted. It is invisible to the environmental movement not because it is unreal, but because it is classified — because the government that controls these weapons has, for sixty years, refused to tell the public what it knows about the craft that have already demonstrated the ability to neutralize U.S. nuclear weapons.

    That is the final argument for UAP disclosure as an environmental cause. It is not merely about clean energy, though the energy implications alone are transformative. It is about the survival of the place we are trying to protect. You cannot save Montana’s environment after it has been incinerated and made radioactive. And the only path to ensuring that it is not incinerated runs through a full, honest accounting of what our government knows — about the weapons pointed at this state, about the craft that have already visited those weapons, and about the technology that may offer humanity a way out of the nuclear trap it has built for itself.

    What You Can Do Right Now: Join the Fight for Disclosure

    None of this will change on its own. Classified programs do not declassify themselves. Secret keepers do not voluntarily open their vaults. The history of every major government transparency movement — from the Pentagon Papers to the Church Committee hearings to the declassification of CIA programs that once seemed permanently buried — tells the same story: secrets yield to sustained, organized, public pressure. Nothing else has ever worked. Nothing else will work here.

    The good news is that the organizational infrastructure for that pressure already exists, and it is gaining momentum in Congress right now. We must let the secret keepers know that we are ready to officially receive the truths recently expressed by Col. Karl Nell:


      “So, non-human intelligence exists, non-human intelligence has been interacting with humanity. This interaction is not new, and it’s been ongoing, and unelected people in the government are aware of that.”


    The New Paradigm Institute and its grassroots campaign Citizens for Disclosure, led by legendary civil rights and environmental attorney Daniel Sheehan — a man who has spent more than fifty years taking on the hidden architecture of government power, from the Pentagon Papers case to the Iran-Contra investigation — is working directly with members of Congress to draft and pass a bipartisan, standalone UAP Disclosure Act. Sheehan is co-drafting the legislation alongside Representatives Eric Burlison of Missouri, Anna Paulina Luna of Florida, and Tim Burchett of Tennessee — a bipartisan group (https://uapcaucus.com) that has become the most persistent and vocal UAP transparency coalition in Congress. The bill would establish a UAP Records Collection at the National Archives, create an independent review board with real subpoena authority, mandate the release of UAP records more than 25 years old, provide legal immunity for Legacy Program whistleblowers who come forward, and ensure that disclosure is conducted responsibly while safeguarding legitimate national security concerns. As Representative Burlison has stated plainly: “I’m asking you to act and push on members of Congress, because otherwise they won’t do anything about it.”

    This is not a fringe effort. It is a bipartisan, constitutionally grounded legislative campaign, backed by former senior intelligence officials, military officers, and credentialed scientists, working through the normal channels of democratic government. It is exactly the kind of effort that a broad public coalition can push over the finish line — if enough people show up.

    That is where you come in. And that is where MEIC, the Sierra Club, the Nature Conservancy, and every other environmental organization in this country come in.

    Environmental groups have something the UAP disclosure movement urgently needs: organized, passionate constituencies that know how to apply political pressure, how to contact legislators, how to show up at hearings, how to generate media attention, and how to sustain a campaign over years. The UAP disclosure movement, in turn, has something the environmental movement urgently needs: a potential path to the most transformative clean energy breakthrough in human history, and a new argument for why the existential threat of nuclear war — and Montana’s place at the center of it — demands a level of government transparency that has never yet been achieved.

    These two movements belong together. An alliance between NPI and environmental organizations like MEIC would represent exactly the kind of unexpected, broad-based coalition that changes political calculations in Washington. When the people demanding disclosure are not only UAP researchers and retired military officers, but also the hunters and fly fishermen who care about the Blackfoot River, the ranchers who worry about what a nuclear exchange would do to Montana’s vast grazing lands, the parents who want their children to inherit a living planet rather than an irradiated one — that is when the secret keepers have to start paying attention.

    Learn more about NPI and the UAP Disclosure Act. Visit newparadigminstitute.org to read the legislation, understand the arguments, and sign up for action alerts. NPI’s Citizens for Disclosure initiative exists specifically to mobilize ordinary citizens into this campaign. There is a chapter in Montana.

    Contact your elected representatives. Montana’s U.S. Senators and House Representatives need to hear from their constituents on this issue. Tell them you support the UAP Disclosure Act. Tell them you believe government transparency about UAP technology is an environmental issue, an energy issue, a national security issue, and a fundamental question of democratic accountability. Ask for their pledge to support the UAPDA. Tell them the people of Montana — who live next door to 150 nuclear-armed missiles and who have spent decades fighting to protect one of the most beautiful environments on Earth — deserve to know what their government knows.

    Urge MEIC and other environmental organizations to engage. Ask MEIC to formally express support for the UAP Disclosure Act and to explore a working alliance with NPI. Ask the Sierra Club’s Montana chapter to do the same. Ask every conservation and environmental organization you belong to why UAP disclosure is not yet on their policy agenda — and make the case that it should be.

    Share this conversation. The most powerful thing any citizen can do in the early stages of a movement is expand the circle of people who are paying attention. Share this article. Talk to your neighbors, your colleagues, your hunting and fishing partners, your fellow hikers. The conversation about UAP has been confined too long to a small community of specialists and enthusiasts. It belongs to all of us — because the implications of what is already in the public record touch every one of us, and every living thing on this planet.

    The secret keepers have held their ground for eighty years by relying on one simple advantage: most people were not paying attention. That advantage is shrinking. Congress is paying attention. Scientists are paying attention. Former intelligence officials are paying attention. The question is whether the broader public — and the organizations that claim to speak for the future of this planet — will pay attention before the window closes.

    Conclusion: The Bigger Fight

    The coal companies and the oil industry have benefited enormously from the public’s willingness to accept the premise that there is no alternative — that hydrocarbon combustion is the best we can do, that the transition to clean energy must be agonizingly slow, that each new pipeline and each new mine is a regrettable necessity.

    What if that premise is false? What if the alternative is not solar panels and wind turbines alone, but a form of energy generation so far beyond our current technology that it operates without any of the physical signatures we associate with power production? What if it has been observed, documented, tracked on military radar, and filmed on military cameras — and what if governments have kept that knowledge classified for reasons that have nothing to do with the good of the planet?

    Dr. Knuth and his colleagues have given us the physics. The witnesses have given us their testimony. The Pentagon has given us authenticated footage. Congress has given us hearings. Captains Salas and Schindele have given us their sworn accounts, at great personal cost, of what happened beneath the Montana and North Dakota plains sixty years ago. What remains is for the environmental movement — which has always been, at its best, a movement willing to speak uncomfortable truths to powerful interests — to demand the transparent UFO Disclosure that could change everything.

    MEIC has spent decades defending Montana’s environment against the destructive power of the fossil fuel industry, battle by battle and courtroom by courtroom. That work is honorable and it matters.

    But the biggest battle may not be in the next courtroom. It may be in demanding that our government tell us what it knows about the craft that left no exhaust over the Pacific Ocean in November 2004 — what is powering them, what they were doing over the missile fields of central Montana in 1967, and what their presence among us means for the future of this planet and every living thing on it. Once we know the truth, we can take it from there.

  • Nuclear Weapons Are No Longer a Trump Card!

    Nuclear Weapons Are No Longer a Trump Card!

    The National Nuclear Safety Administration (NNSA) is taking public comments (through July 14, 2025) on a Department of Defense (DoD) initiative to begin manufacturing a new generation of “nuclear pits”. Nuclear pits are an integral part of a nuclear warhead. The nuclear pit serves as the plutonium “trigger” that initiates the nuclear chain reaction inside the warhead of a nuclear weapon.

    What is the National Nuclear Security Administration?

    “The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) is a United States federal agency responsible for safeguarding national security through the military application of nuclear science. NNSA maintains and enhances the safety, security, and effectiveness of the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile; works to reduce the global danger from weapons of mass destruction; provides the United States Navy with safe and effective nuclear propulsion; and responds to nuclear and radiological emergencies in the United States and abroad.

    This was my comment during yesterday’s NNSA hearing on its PEIS (Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement) concerning the manufacturing of new nuclear pits:

    Dear NNSA,

    I’m Dr. Richard O’Connor, a retired physician, a longtime member of Physicians for Social Responsibility (PSR), and Montana’s Director for New Paradigm Institute’s (NPI) initiative called Citizens for Disclosure. NPI is currently working with Congress, and especially with members of the Congressional UAP Caucus, to pass the UAP Disclosure Act that was first introduced in 2023 and was unanimously passed by the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI). The UAP Disclosure Act was introduced by Senators Chuck Schumer and Michael Rounds and is a bipartisan act intended to establish, by law, a Congressional mandate requiring the DoD, DoE, and IC to submit all data they have collected since 1945 that is relevant to UAP (UFOs) and the Non-Human Intelligence (NHI) behind them. This information is to be funneled to a National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) review board appointed by the President. It is remarkable that the UAP Disclosure Act mentions NHI 22 times.

    Why is this relevant to nuclear pits or nuclear weapons? Researcher Robert Hastings interviewed over 150 previous USAF Officers who performed as missileers at various U.S. nuclear weapons installations situated in our homeland. Each of these individuals testified to their personal knowledge of and involvement in events during which U.S. nuclear weapons were suddenly rendered completely inoperable at times during which UFOs of non-human origin were visually sighted by base security personnel while silently hovering over the involved nuclear missile installations. Mr. Hastings book, UFOs and Nukes: Extraordinary Encounters at Nuclear Weapons Sites details these events, as does a documentary he produced titled UFOs and Nukes: The Secret Link Revealed.

    Both previous USAF Officers Capt. Robert Salas and Capt. David Schindele have testified before members of the SSCI concerning their direct involvement in these incidents. Luis Elizondo, a previous Director of the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), has publicly acknowledged the truth of these events, both in an open hearing before Congress and in his (DOPSR-reviewed) book titled Imminent. Jay Stratton, previous Director of the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program (AAWSAP) program, has publicly stated that his team was tasked with overseeing the reverse engineering of recovered NHI/ET/alien spacecraft as part of the AAWSAP agenda. Stratton has plainly stated that he has “seen with his own eyes alien bodies and alien craft”. Because the U.S. DoD and IC have never seen fit to rightfully inform the American people about these events does not mean they have not happened. Plenty of firsthand eyewitness evidence now informs us that they have.    

    This is all to say that there is apparently a neglected, or rather deliberately ignored third party involved in mankind’s nuclear weapons controversy. They are here, they are evidently highly intelligent and very technologically advanced, and they seem to be deeply concerned about mankind’s nuclear weapons. They appear to be weighing in on the question of whether our human family should continue to be trifling with nuclear weapons. I concur with their apparent sentiments. I think these NHI/ET interventions involving nuclear weapons must be considered as a relevant factor as we address the question of whether it is wise, or even appropriate, for the U.S. DoD to consider spending $946 billion USD over the coming decade to produce more nuclear weapons of mass destruction. The NHI/ETs have proven, on multiple occasions, that they can disable these weapons at will. I firmly believe that, if we continue down this nuclear path, there are going to be serious and perhaps devastating consequences in response. We should be doing everything possible to avoid going there. Manufacturing new nuclear pits isn’t that.

    If you think all of this is nonsense, please watch the trailer of a new documentary titled The Age of Disclosure. In it, you will hear from 34 individuals presently holding or who previously held USG security clearances who all assure us there is at least one NHI/ET species engaging with this planet and with our people. If you don’t think this is nonsense, then please join in supporting the efforts of New Paradigm Institute. NPI is firmly aligned against nuclear weapons. So am I.

    Sincerely,

    Richard O’Connor, M.D.

    A remarkable irony: the U.S. is now held hostage to nuclear weapons.

    From the day it began, Putin’s invasion of Ukraine has been accompanied by numerous threats from Putin referencing an escalation to WWIII if the U.S. dares to intervene in the war in Ukraine. President Biden took that warning seriously. He pressed U.S. military involvement in Ukraine right up to that red line. Since taking office, President Trump has almost entirely backed away almost entirely from any U.S. military involvement in Ukraine. There can be no doubt that Putin has found President Trump’s stance on Ukraine entirely satisfactory – until recently.

    Yesterday, Russia (Putin) voiced yet another reference to WWIII after President Trump, for the first time through a “Tweet”, criticized Putin for his indiscriminate bombing of Ukraine’s cities and private citizens. News Nation (our only reliable mainstream media source for news related to UFOs, the Non-Human Intelligence (NHI) behind them, and the U.S. government’s decades-long UFO/NHI cover-up) reported on Putin’s response to Trump’s criticism HERE.

    What would WWIII look like? Would either the U.S. or Russia initiate a nuclear first strike against the other? Has the fear of an escalation to a full blown nuclear war influenced the U.S. DoD’s response to the war in Ukraine? It is difficult to imagine otherwise. The nuclear weapons that the U.S. developed and then championed during WWII are now severely restricting any latitude the U.S. might have otherwise had in determining how it can respond to Russian aggression in Ukraine.

    How would the Non-Human Intelligence (NHI/ET) engaging with this planet respond to a nuclear war?

    We don’t know, but X’s AI Grok thinks that previous NHI/ET interventions at both U.S. and Russian nuclear weapons installations may be influencing U.S. policies regarding the use of nuclear weapons. We should hope so. After all, the NHI/ETs have made it abundantly clear that they disapprove of nuclear weapons of mass destruction. If you don’t know about these incidents, you should read these books:

  • NASA Director Bill Nelson: “The NASA UAP Study Team did not find any evidence that UAP have an extraterrestrial origin.”

    NASA Director Bill Nelson: “The NASA UAP Study Team did not find any evidence that UAP have an extraterrestrial origin.”

    Premise: What we are currently witnessing in the ebb and flow of UFO Disclosure is an internecine struggle between the Executive and Legislative branches of our government that concerns which of those branches will control the UFO/UAP narrative during peacetime and, eventually, which will primarily manage our evolving relationship, diplomatic or otherwise, with the non-human intelligence (NHI) responsible for decades of UFO/UAP sightings and close encounters.

    It is unwise and even dangerous to have either of these two branches of our government maintain an exclusive prerogative to manage our evolving relationship with the NHI behind the UFO/UAP.


    More than hypothetical.

    Recently, a new Disclosure Project witness named Michael Herrera has appeared on the UAP/UFO scene (begin at 1:06:16). Previously a US Marine, Mr. Herrera has spoken publicly (whistleblown) about being held at gunpoint in October 2009 while personally witnessing, along with 5 other Marines, a large, silent, disc-shaped UFO hovering off the ground as some unknown cargo was off-loaded from it, by humans, in a jungle near the city of Padang on the island of Sumatra in Indonesia.

    After listening to Mr. Herrera, my assessment is that he is telling the truth. If he’s telling the truth, this brings up raft of questions. How did these humans get their hands on an operable UFO? Was that UFO made by humans and who were the humans that were operating that craft? If it was made by humans, was it a product of a US government reverse engineering “black” program that Senior Intel officer turned whistleblower David Grusch has told us about? If it is (I’m assuming it still exists), how was the original UFO it was copied from acquired? Did the original UFO it was copied from come from a non-human intelligence (NHI), like extraterrestrials? If so, was it acquired from a “UFO crash”, or was it brought down to Earth by some kind of kinetic or directed-energy weapon through an aggressive military action that any human, and especially any government on this planet, would consider an act of war? If it was brought down through an act of war, what role, if any, did our US Department of Defense (DoD) play in this? Is our nation engaged in a hot war with some species of extraterrestrials that every US citizen knows nothing about? Were the 3 UFO shoot-downs that happened this past February and that citizens were subsequently told nothing about actually US military actions taken against an extraterrestrial adversary as part of that war? If we are at war with an extraterrestrial species, does Congress know about this? If we are at war with an extraterrestrial species, who in the US DoD and/or the Intelligence Community knows about this? Why in 2016 did General Mark Milley (begin at 00:34:10) tell the soon-to-become US military officers graduating from Norwich College that they would be serving in a complex world and would be “dealing with little green men”? I think we all know what he was implying.

    If I knew for a fact that any of this somewhat informed speculation is true, I would be blowing my whistle right now and, apparently, many are. In a recent article written by Michael Shellenberger, Andrew Mohar, and Phoebe Smith published on September 25, 2023 in Public (subscription required), these journalists inform us that approximately 30 new whistleblowers have stepped forward to reveal to the Inspectors General of the Intelligence Community (Thomas A. Monheim) and Department of Defense (Robert P. Storch) and to certain Congressional committees what they know about UFO “crash” retrieval and reverse engineering programs taking place as black Unacknowledged Special Access Programs (USAPs) that are being illegally funded by some clandestine factions within our own government.

    Below I will explain why Congress must address all of this NOW and why NASA’s new UAP Independent Study Team is (unwittingly by those involved) intended to be yet another long-term stall tactic, like Project Blue Book, employed by the DoD to shore up its now crumbling UFO cover-up.

    NASA’s September 14, 2023 briefing.

    During the September 14, 2023 briefing summarizing NASA’s UAP Independent Study Team‘s (UAPIST) recommendations addressing how NASA might contribute to the study of UAP/UFOs, NASA Director Bill Nelson made it (suspiciously) certain that the listening audience heard his words as he repeated his message twice – no evidence of extraterrestrials!

    That the NASA UAPIST deliberately excluded classified data and historical reports from law enforcement agencies, the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC), collections of historical data from, for example, NICAP, NARCAP, CUFOS, SCU, or the personal archives of previous UFO researchers like Ted Phillips, Dr. James McDonald, Stanton Friedman, or even the AIRCAT files of NASA’s own Dr. Richard Haines, I was left with the distinct impression that NASA did not want to find evidence of extraterrestrials associated with UAP/UFOs. At least not yet. If they did want to now, they would have pressed for “whole of government” access to the Department of Defense’s (DoD), the Intelligence Community’s (IC), and the Department of Energy’s (DOE) stacks and substacks of classified files on UAP/UFOs they have amassed over nearly 80 years of UAP activity on and around planet Earth. But NASA didn’t do that. In fact, NASA deliberately avoided doing that. Why?

    They didn’t do that because, NASA says, they want to be able to be completely honest and transparent in sharing everything they might discover about UAP/UFOs through their scientifically rigorous, “whole of government” (excluding, of course, all classified government UAP data) study of UAP/UFOs with the world. NASA’s 34-page report could have been summarized in a single sentence, “We have decided to trash 76 years of UFO history and begin anew.” NASA essentially threw the work of many dedicated UFO researchers who gave the best years of their lives, attempting to acquire hard-earned data to understand UFOs during a period when UFOs were much more anathema than they are today, right into the dumpster. This, despite that, at the end of the day, every single one of those researchers mentioned above, and including Dr. J. Allen Hynek, did conclude that some UAP/UFOs were, most likely, of extraterrestrial origin. How much farther down the road than that conclusion will NASA’s study of UFOs take us? Not much farther. Ever.

    Please carefully note that these promises coming from NASA are the very same promises made by those who were involved with Project Blue Book, the USAF’s “comprehensive” study on UAP/UFOs ranging from 1952 until its deflating conclusion in 1969. The world waited 17 years for that “scientific study” which also concluded with “no evidence of extraterrestrials”. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

    If we want to find Easter eggs, we don’t look for them in the beer and wine section of our grocery store.

    But maybe that’s where NASA administrator Bill Nelson shops for his Easter eggs? The reason the UAPIST did not find evidence to support UAP/UFOs having an extraterrestrial origin in any peer-reviewed scientific literature is because that data isn’t there. For decades, most reputable and published scientists have deliberately avoided having anything to do with UAP/UFOs, knowing that engaging with this subject would torpedo their careers. They certainly did not publish peer-reviewed scientific papers in reputable scientific journals touting their firm conclusion that some UAP/UFOs might have an extraterrestrial source. To do so would have been suicide so far as their careers were concerned. They sheepishly complied with the deliberately constructed social taboo created and maintained by the US legacy media at the behest of the US DoD that has surrounded UAP/UFOs for our entire lifetimes. Today, a few heroic scientists like Dr. Avi Loeb, Dr. Garry Nolan, Dr. Kevin Knuth, and Robert Powell, among a few others, have chosen to jump the fence and leave the corral. My hat is off to them. They are examples of independent thinkers demonstrating the scientific integrity we expect from true men of science.

    About NASA. Is Director Bill Nelson to blame?

    Under the supervision and direction of the President, the Administrator shall be responsible for the exercise of all powers and the discharge of all duties of the Administration and shall have authority and control over all personnel and activities thereof.

    Director of NASA Bill Nelson was nominated by and serves at the pleasure of President Biden. Although NASA is deemed to be an independent civil agency within the US government, NASA effectively falls within the Executive branch of our government. NASA has a close working relationship with several agencies within the US Department of Defense. For practical purposes, NASA can be considered to be an illegitimate stepchild of the DoD. So, now we have not one, but two official government agencies, NASA and the AARO (All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office) under the thumb of the DoD who are apparently tasked, for the time being, with convincing American citizens that no UAP/UFOs are of extraterrestrial origin.

    No evidence of extraterrestrials?

    Eyewitness testimony from credible witnesses is considered quite valuable in our courts. Maybe we should have the Judicial Branch of our government run this show? It does not take a genius to conclude that the UAP/UFO craft repeatedly observed to be obviously operating under intelligent control and reported in our skies for 7 decades by tens of thousands of sensors (human eyeballs) and by radar and FLIR imaging, that have exhibited the “5 (or 6) observables” described by AATIP Director Luis Elizondo, that have been chased and fired upon by military pilots while UAP jammed their avionics and weapons systems multiple times, that have massively but silently glided low and slow over Phoenix while witnessed by hundreds of credible people including Arizona’s ex-governor and private pilot Fife Symington, that have landed on dry lake beds and multiple schoolyards in front of hundreds of children (and in one case physically stood no more than 2 meters away from them), that have temporarily disabled our nuclear weapons multiple times at multiple locations, that have physically abducted citizens against their will thousands of times, that have left > 2000 ground landing traces documented by UFO researchers like Jacques Vallee and Ted Phillips, and that have “crashed” (or were shot down?) and been recovered, in some cases with their pilots, multiple times as testified before Congress, under solemn oath, by senior Intel Officer David Grusch and also by Major Jesse Marcel Sr., Lt. Col. Jesse Marcel, Jr., and Col. Phillip Corso, among others, are, in fact, technologically sophisticated craft that are not of present-day human origin. They are, by definition, “extraterrestrial”. The sentence above is so unmanageably long because the evidence supporting this foregone conclusion is, by now, voluminous. But NASA threw all of that in the garbage. Either NASA’s UAPIST of esteemed scientists cannot put 2 and 2 together, or they have been instructed not to. I opine the latter. They have chosen to willfully remain in the corral. If they are knowingly and willfully participating in what is intended to become the latest iteration of Project Blue Book 2.0, while also intending to delay an announcement that some UAP/UFOs are of extraterrestrial origin for another 17 years, then may they choke on their NASA paychecks.

    But we know those NASA UAPIST scientists are not stupid. They must know they are choosing to play a role in a theatrical production, a screenplay designed and intended to allow the US DoD and Intelligence Community (IC) to gracefully exit from their sordid past history of constantly gaslighting America’s citizens about UFOs, of illegally misdirecting funding previously appropriated by Congress for other specific reasons, of emotionally and physically abusing private citizens to maintain their cover-up of UFOs, of corrupting America’s mainstream media with their threats of exclusion, of covering up the importance of crop circles and cattle mutilations, of never informing American citizens about UFO/NHI nuclear weapons shut-downs and, perhaps most threatening of all, potentially engaging in acts of war against the NHI responsible for UAP/UFOs. These are all gangster behaviors. The list of misdeeds is almost as long as that of the evidence supporting UAP/UFOs being extraterrestrial in origin.

    In short, the scientists involved with NASA’s UAPIST have elected to furnish “the US government” with a (distant) future, “Eureka! Who knew? UAP are of extraterrestrial origin after all!” headline it will so desperately need to help extricate itself from the absolute mess it has created and that one would expect after so many decades of UFO cover-up. God forbid this charade takes another 17 years to play out. These malleable scientists may consider themselves to be American patriots, but I do not. Our government’s dirty (putrid) UAP/UFO laundry needs to be aired and measures taken to prevent such a fiasco from ever happening again. Congress needs to exert its muscle about this, and it needs to do that NOW! We may be at war with some species of extraterrestrials and not even know it. Canadian Minister of Defense Paul Hellyer told us this could happen, and now it is beginning to appear that he was correct.

    Is NASA playing word games?

    “Extraterrestrial” may be an imprecise descriptor of who or what the NHI behind UAP/UFOs we are dealing with is or where they come from because the American public has never been informed of this, if this is already known. Several other more precise descriptors (artificial intelligence, time machines, bionic beings, interdimensionals, extratempestrials, cryptoterrestrials, ultraterrestrials, etc.) denoting the nature of and place of origin of the NHI behind UAP/UFOs may well, by now, be known by some (a few) in NASA, the DoD, and the Intelligence Community (IC). Given NASA’s statement above, we might infer that NASA has determined that the NHI behind UAP/UFOs are not specifically “extraterrestrial”, meaning they do not stem from other planets within our solar system or beyond. Has NASA apparently informed us of this in the UAPIST’s report? Once again, we are left hanging in a state of cognitive dissonance with NASA being the latest iteration of government agencies, perhaps unknowingly, tasked with gaslighting the American public about the true nature of UAP/UFOs. And we are paying for this ongoing charade. Today we are paying mostly in US dollars. As the combined threats of global climate change, global nuclear war, and possibly a hot war with extraterrestrials continue to escalate, we may soon be paying with our lives and those of our children. The UFO cover-up must end. Potential new technologies that may prove beneficial in helping solve these looming and existential challenges may be forthcoming if we can lift the lid on the UFO cover-up. All of us can help make this happen.

    Playing word games with America’s citizens as we are forced to divine NASA’s meaning of the word “extraterrestrial” is a far cry from the “transparency” that Bill Nelson and others connected with NASA’s UAPIST promised during the press conference in which the UAPIST’s report was unveiled to the American public. Nelson’s statement, “The NASA UAP Study Team did not find any evidence that UAP have an extraterrestrial origin” may simply be yet another disingenuous statement intended to dissuade public interest in UAP, a tactic that has been employed for decades to maintain the “integrity” of the UFO cover-up. If we consider Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick’s/AARO’s almost identical message to the public, “no evidence of extraterrestrials”, we can be certain that this is the official statement all informed chorus line participants in the NASA and AARO efforts to “study” UAP/UFOs will abide by until otherwise instructed. NASA has been compromised.

    We can now be certain that NASA has become part of the UFO cover-up because, contrary to NASA and AARO’s claims, there is no doubt that some other-than-present-day-human NHI is responsible for some of the tens of thousands of UAP/UFO reports over the past 7 decades. Even if we ignore the historical evidence cited above, recently, informed individuals like David Grusch, Luis Elizondo, Christopher Mellon, Dr. Eric Davis, Col Phillip Corso, and Dr. Hal Putoff, among others, have essentially told us that some UAP/UFOs are of NHI/extraterrestrial origin, and they would know. Now we have reports of 30 more whistleblowers who have stepped forward to tell their OAP/UFO-related stories. The lid on UFO secrecy must be about to blow. You can help with that.

    Our system of checks and balances is out of balance.

    In an ideal world the responsibility of managing our nation’s relationship with the NHI behind UFOs/UAP would be transparently shared between the Executive and Legislative Branches of our government, with each performing its role in checking and balancing the other. This model presumes that both Branches of our government would be equally informed about the real existence of the NHI behind UFOs/UAP – who they are, where they come from, why they are here, how long they have been here, that they have disabled our nuclear weapons, that they have been abducting citizens against their will, and that some of their craft have been recovered and delivered to clandestine and highly classified Unacknowledged Special Access Programs (USAPs) tasked with reverse engineering the recovered UFO/UAP.

    However, we now know that such equally shared knowledge and responsibility concerning the management of UFOs/UAP has never been the case and, perhaps, never will be if the DoD has its way. If you recall, the Executive Branch of our government was first on the scene of the UFO that crashed near Roswell in 1947 and, with this new windfall technology and profound knowledge, has effectively mandated that the management of mankind’s evolving relationship with UFOs/UAP and the NHI behind them is and will remain an exclusive domain of the Executive Branch of the US government. Many US citizens are unaware of the grave implications of this situation as it presently stands. Our government was not designed to properly function without effective checks and balances. According to our Constitution it is only Congress that is authorized to declare war on behalf of the citizens of this country, yet it may be possible that our DoD is involved in a hot war with extraterrestrials that both Congress and the American people know nothing about. We need to open our eyes, and soon!

    “No reason to conclude”?

    In the last paragraph of the NASA Independent UAP Study Team’s report we read this:

    “At this point there is no reason to conclude that existing UAP reports have an extraterrestrial source. However, if we acknowledge that as one possibility, then those objects must have traveled through our solar system to get here. (Author: this is a questionable assertion. The NHI may be manipulating time rather than 3D space.) Just as the galaxy does not stop at the outskirts of the solar system, the solar system also includes Earth and its environs. Thus, there is an intellectual continuum between extrasolar techno-signatures, solar system SETI, and potential unknown alien technology operating in Earth’s atmosphere. If we recognize the plausibility of any of these, then we should recognize that all are at least plausible.”

    In reading the NASA report, NASA’s UAPIST logic appears to be that the discovery of extrasolar or even near/on-Earth “techno-signatures” of alien life will lend additional support to the extraterrestrial hypothesis as the explanation for UFOs/UAP. But NASA should acknowledge that the discovery of extrasolar or near/on Earth techno-signatures of alien life will never prove that the UFOs/UAP stem from a non-human intelligence.

    In fact, there is no scientific study that solely addresses the techno-signatures of UFOs/UAP that will conclusively prove that UFOs/UAP stem from a non-human (or other-than-present-day human) intelligence.

    The best we can hope for is NASA stating their conclusion that some UAP/UFOs may be of other than present-day human origin. However, the question of whether UFOs/UAP could be the product of a traditional foreign adversary or a natural phenomenon we do not yet understand will always remain until our nation, on behalf of all of mankind, will finally:

    1. Begin earnest attempts to peacefully communicate with the NHI behind UFOs/UAP, and;
    2. Reveal the UAP/UFO craft that have already been physically recovered and make them available for study by the wider (global) scientific community.

    Reducing the stigma.

    We can find a quantum of solace in NASA finally and officially engaging with the systematic scientific study of UFOs/UAP. In their report, the NASA UAPIST makes it clear that NASA is now taking UFOs/UAP seriously and will allocate some of its considerable expertise toward studying UFOs/UAP. The NASA UAPIST notes that, by their officially addressing UFOs/UAP, this will further reduce the (deliberately imposed) social stigma that has shackled the UFO/UAP subject for decades. And with its report’s final sentence, the NASA UAPIST is clearly admitting that some UFOs/UAP may be the techno-signatures of the technologically advanced NHI behind the UFOs/UAP. But the NASA UAPIST will never get any further than this in their assessment of UFOs/UAP in the absence of transparent and full UFO Disclosure.

    We have reached the point where Congress MUST exert its own considerable power to wrest the long-standing, exclusive control over the UFO/UAP narrative from the Executive Branch and place it transparently and equally in the hands of Congress and the American people. That is where it belongs. The Executive Branch is already fully aware and can make recommendations to Congress in light of that awareness, but weaponizing UFO/UAP energy and propulsion systems can no longer take precedence in a world that is dealing with a burgeoning population and its resultant global climate change. Nor should our world be forced to exist under the constant threat of nuclear annihilation without ever having been officially informed about the several instances when the NHI behind UFOs/UAP have shut down those nuclear weapons – and likely for very good reasons.

    Conclusion

    NASA is not to be trusted any more than the United States Air Force insofar as the study of UAP/UFOs is concerned. They have signed up for a long period of guaranteed paychecks for those involved in the UAPIST in their pursuit of understanding UAP. NASA’s theatrics will only serve to further delay what has become inevitable.

    As their conscience weighs more heavily on them, their forward progress in reverse engineering UAP/UFOs is stymied by secrecy, their lives become increasingly affected by global climate change and they conclude, as I have, that our nation may be engaged in a hot war with an extraterrestrial/NHI species that none of us have been told anything about, more UAP/UFO whistleblowers are going to step forward. Now that some credible scientists have chosen to engage, citizen -led efforts to study UAP/UFOs like Dr. Avi Loeb’s Galileo Project will find some of the evidence they are looking for to support the real existence of and non-human origin of UAP. They will tell us UAP are metallic, they move really fast, they develop tremendous G forces under acceleration and deceleration, they produce enormous amounts of energy, and they are able to make acute turns at tremendous speeds etc. They are going to acquire the scientific data to back up the long-standing claims that UAP/UFOs are real and unlikely to be of human origin. In other words, using the scientific method, they will tell us lots of things about UAP/UFOs that we already know. But then they will have the data to back up those claims.

    But what we need more than this at this moment is an aggressive Congressional intervention to put a final end to the UFO cover-up. Senator Schumer’s Amendment 836, otherwise known as The UAP Disclosure Act of 2023, will be of immense benefit in achieving this goal if Congress will only pass that amendment. Alternatively, we need a UAP/UFO landing on the White House lawn which may not be far off if our DoD is engaged in a hot war with extraterrestrials. Given what we are hearing from whistleblowers like Michael Herrera, to me it’s feeling like that moment may be closer at hand than we realize. Go to www.declassifyuap.org and tell your representatives in Congress to support The UAP Disclosure Act of 2023! Please do this now.

  • Our Zoom Meeting with Senator Jon Tester’s Staff Concerning UAP/UFOs

    Our Zoom Meeting with Senator Jon Tester’s Staff Concerning UAP/UFOs

    On September 21, 2023 Capt. Robert Salas, Dr. Joan Bird, Dr. Michael Masters and myself, Dr. Richard O’Connor, engaged in a 40-minute-long Zoom meeting with 3 members of Senator Tester’s staff concerning the subject of UAP vs. nuclear weapons. Below is the document we sent to Senator Tester’s staff prior to that meeting.

    Constituents’ Recommendations for Senator Tester Concerning UAP/UFOs

    Zoom meeting on 09/21/2023 at 14:00 MST

    Premise: Our civilization is experiencing a dawning realization that some UAP/UFOs represent “technosignatures” of one or more intelligent and technologically advanced species previously unknown to us. Their measured approach to our nation, indeed to our global civilization over the past 8 decades has, so far as we are informed, been peaceful. “So far as we are informed” speaks to the fact that much, if not most, of the information concerning their approach to our civilization has, for many decades, been unduly classified due to “national security” concerns and thereby rendered completely unavailable to American citizens as well as to most of our elected representatives in Congress.   

    Our government is presently involved in an unprecedented internal struggle that will determine which branch of our government will continue to manage our nation’s response to these UAP/UFOs and, soon, which will primarily orchestrate mankind’s evolving diplomatic relationship with one or more sentient but other-than-present-day-human species responsible for these UAP/UFOs. (Below, for the sake of simplicity, they will be referred to as extraterrestrials, or “ETs”.) It is now apparent that this responsibility must, for the present and pending further action by the United Nations, transition from the Executive Branch where it has exclusively resided, to a responsibility that is fully shared with the Legislative Branch of our government. It must be the elected representatives of the American people who will, in consultation with experts from a wide variety of disciplines, make informed decisions concerning how our nation will respond to the peaceful overtures of these sentient ET beings. Over many decades and for important reasons they have been insinuating themselves into our consensus reality. Today, there can be no doubt that they exist, and they are here interacting with us.

    Maintaining critical trust in our government among its citizens mandates that this delicate transition toward information sharing and in governing authority must be accompanied by complete transparency and Disclosure of the known facts surrounding UAP/UFOs and, more importantly, the sentient ET beings behind them, to the American people. Congress, and particularly our Senator Jon Tester, have an immensely important role to play in this. The time for Senator Tester to play that role has arrived.

    Capt. Robert Salas (ret.)

    UAP/UFOs vs. nuclear weapons firsthand witness and co-author of Faded Giant

    1. The primary goal of Capt. Salas is to obtain an official statement from the USAF affirming that UAP/UFOs (ETs) have disabled multiple US nuclear missiles (20) at distantly separated US nuclear weapons installations on separate occasions in Montana.
    2. Capt. Salas asks that Senator Tester publicly acknowledge, through a press release also posted to his website, his awareness of Capt. Salas’s credible, firsthand witness testimony stating that UAP/UFOs (ETs) have been active over and disabled multiple US nuclear weapons (20) at distantly separated US nuclear weapons installations on separate occasions in Montana.  
    3. Capt. Salas recommends that Senator Tester should propose legislation to specifically release UAP/UFO witnesses from Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) so they can freely testify about their experiences with UAP/UFO incidents over nuclear weapons sites without fear of retribution.
    4. Capt. Salas requests that he be consulted about and involved in selecting credible UAP/UFO vs. nuclear weapons cases and (already identified) firsthand witnesses that will positively support Senator Tester in his statements affirming his awareness of past UAP/UFOs vs. nuclear weapons incidents in Montana.
    5. Capt. Salas directs Senator Tester’s and his staff’s attention to his website  https://spiralgalaxy.org/nukes-and-ufos for additional factual and detailed information about UAP/UFOs vs. nuclear weapons incidents that have occurred. There is more information, not included, available on request, about other similar incidents that have happened in Montana.     

    Dr. Joan Bird, Dr. Richard O’Connor, Dr. Michael Masters, and James Lough, Esq. support the recommendations of Capt. Salas without reservation.

    Dr. Joan Bird, PhD, Helena MT

    Senator Tester’s constituent and author of Montana UFOs and Extraterrestrials

    1. Dr. Bird recommends that Senator Tester invite Capt. Salas to address the Senate as Capt. Salas was the first witness who, in 1996, began to speak publicly about and specifically link the nuclear weapons shutdowns to the presence of UAP/UFOs. It is appropriate that Senator Tester do this, as some of these events happened in Montana in areas that are near to Senator Tester’s own backyard.
    2. Dr. Bird makes it known to Senator Tester that in her discussions with many civilian contactees who have had communications with ETs, the ETs have specifically expressed concerns about our development of nuclear weapons.
    3. Dr. Bird notes that UAP/UFOs are a global phenomenon, and, in one Italian case, there were over 200 people who interacted with a delegation of ET visitors. These visitors claimed responsibility for the nuclear shutdowns as a message to the people of Earth warning of the dangers of nuclear weapons.

     Dr. Richard O’Connor, M.D., Clancy, MT

    Senator Tester’s constituent and author of UFOs, Nuclear Weapons, and a New Age of Reason

    1. Dr. O’Connor recommends that Senator Tester vigorously support the passage of S.Amdt. 836 (The UAP Disclosure Act of 2023) to be included in S. 2226 (NDAA 2024). It is of major importance that this amendment be proposed and presented to the Senate for bipartisan passage.
    2. In the event S. Amdt. 836 is not proposed for a vote by the Senate, Dr. O’Connor recommends that Senator Tester submit new legislation calling for declassification of all Department of Defense, Intelligence Community, and Department of Energy records having to do with all known UAP/UFOs vs. nuclear weapons incidents, some of which have happened within the state of Montana that Senator Tester represents.
    3. Dr. O’Connor recommends that Senator Tester support the deposition of IC IG Thomas A. Monheim, under oath before Congress, as the next step toward determining the real existence of classified DoD, IC, and/or DoE Unacknowledged Special Access Programs (USAPs) tasked with reverse engineering recovered ET craft, materiel, and/or the study of recovered ET corporal remains (“biologics”) as alleged by US intel officer turned whistleblower David Grusch. A simple question, “Do you, Mr. Monheim, have knowledge of USAPs tasked with the study of or reverse engineering of recovered spacecraft, materiel, and/or physical ET beings of other-than-present-day-human (ET) origin?” Mr. Grusch’s serious and likely factual allegations must not be ignored and must be further explored by Congress.
    4. Dr. O’Connor recommends that any progress previously made toward reverse engineering the energy systems of ET craft (UAP/UFOs) that could be applied toward the global benefit of shifting our world’s energy structure away from carbon-based energy sources be immediately made known to the wider civilian scientific community. Mankind needs to discover a potent power/energy source to replace fossil fuels and thereby combat global climate change, and we need to find it now.

    For example, credible PhD scientists lacking complete (unclassified) data but using their best approximations have estimated a potential power output of a single (“Tic Tac”) UAP/UFO to be an astounding 1100 GW! That’s 1100 billion watts! The authors of the paper note that this exceeds the entire nuclear energy production of the US by more than a factor of 10.

    • Dr. O’Connor recommends that Senator Tester become an advocate in both word and action for full and transparent UFO Disclosure to the American people. We all have a need to know about every UAP vs. nuclear weapons incident – when, where, and, if known, why these events have occurred.
    • Dr. O’Connor’s goal and one he recommends Senator Tester support is achieving a worldwide ban of all nuclear weapons as directed by the United Nations’ Treaty of the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.

    Dr. Michael Masters, PhD, Butte, MT

    Senator Tester’s constituent, professor of biological anthropology at Montana Technological University, and author of Identified Flying Objects, The Extratempestrial Model, and Revelation: The Future Human Past.

    1. Dr. Masters supports each of the recommendations listed above without reservation.
    2. Dr. Masters recommends giving particular attention to the declassification of historic UAP/UFO cases previously investigated by the USAF Office of Special Investigations.
    3. In his books, Dr. Masters presents logic grounded in facts gleaned from evolutionary biology and astrophysics that present a compelling argument that some of the sentient beings behind UAP/UFOs may, in fact, be human time travelers hailing from our distant future.
      1. If this theory proves to be correct, it follows that our future human relatives would display a keen interest in our world’s present-day infatuation with nuclear weapons of mass destruction (as they clearly are) while doing all they are able to help prevent a cataclysmic nuclear war. This would explain why they are showing up in numbers at this critical time in human history – mankind’s age of nuclear weapons.
      1. If future humans are trying to alter a catastrophic worldline related to nuclear weapons then, so far, we are failing our future relatives.   

    James Lough, Esq.

    Attorney and author of The UFO Briefing Book written for and previously distributed to members of Congress.

    1. Mr. Lough notes that Senator Tester is assigned to the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation which is now an appropriate committee to receive classified UAP information. Mr. Lough recommends that Senator Tester avail himself of that privilege as UAP/UFO Disclosureunfolds.
    2. Mr. Lough recommends that Senator Tester speak confidentially but candidly with Director of NASA and fellow Democrat Bill (“we don’t know what UAP are”) Nelson.
    3. Mr. Lough recommends that Senator Tester give attention to the now categorized physical injuries that active-duty military personnel (and private US citizens) can incur through their too-close exposure to ET craft. He recommends that cautionary guidelines be set forth to prevent this happening. In this regard, Mr. Lough recommends that Senator Tester speak with USAF veteran John Burroughs and with Stanford professor Dr. Garry Nolan about this important and still inappropriately classified topic.
    4. Mr. Lough recommends that Senator Tester, as Chair of the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee, be aware of and emphasize the psychological trauma (“ontological shock”) imposed on military veterans who have experienced UAP/UFO encounters yet have been routinely forced to sign binding NDAs under threat of retaliation for noncompliance.

    Conclusion

    It is apparent that both NASA and AARO are cooperatively slow walking their way toward some yet undefined version of UAP/UFO Disclosurewhile deliberately ignoring 8 decades of important UFO/UAP history, data, and their orchestrated cover-up. We strongly believe the DoD already has data proving what UAP/UFOs are (Roswell, etc.), perhaps who they belong to, and perhaps even why those intelligent beings have been disabling our US nuclear weapons. This is a critical question of immense importance that we need to find a definitive answer to ASAP.

    The Executive Branch’s desire to gracefully exit from its sordid history of past UAP/UFO policies foisted upon its active-duty DoD and IC personnel, upon its military veterans, and upon American citizens while excluding Congress from decision making in these regards is both predictable and understandable. But it must not be allowed to continue. We do not and will not argue for retribution. However, given the immense destructive power of nuclear weapons and our world’s current political milieu, the continued suppression of critical information related to UAP/UFOs vs. nuclear weapons incidents being kept from Congress and American citizens is no longer appropriate. Day-by-day and minute-by-minute, the global nuclear weapons conundrum represents a truly existential threat to the continuity of our nation and to our global civilization as we know it. It is critical that a military mindset not be allowed to continue to have an exclusive prerogative concerning how our government will respond to these UAP/UFO vs. nuclear weapons interventions. The solution to our world’s nuclear weapons conundrum may lie waiting in the carefully considered context of these past UAP/UFO vs. nuclear weapons interventions.

    Our elected representatives in Congress must become politically willing to approach and assess the Executive Branch’s movements regarding UAP/UFO Disclosurewith their eyes wide-open. We do not want a repeat of Project Blue Book 2.0. Recent Congressional engagement with UAP/UFO Disclosure vis-à-vis S. Amdt.836 (The UAP Disclosure Act of 2023) is clearly helping to lend legitimacy to and accelerate the UAP/UFO Disclosure process. However, it is crucial that the transparent release to American citizens of all known facts and analyses concerning UAP/UFOs vs. nuclear weapons incidents become an immediate priority for Congress. In this way Congress can assist in transitioning these momentous historical events from their past status of derision and cover-up into a topic of much needed civil discourse and debate among properly informed American citizens. Given that several of these events occurred in Montana, Senator Tester can and should play a leading role in ensuring that authority over these matters transitions from the previous exclusivity “enjoyed” by the Executive Branch to one of a responsibility that is equally and transparently shared with the Legislative Branch of our government. Only in this way, through the time-honored system of mutual checks and balances that is foundational to our government, can insightful decisions be made. Montana voters will be grateful for any assistance Senator Tester can offer, both in word and in action, toward achieving these important policy goals.

    Addendum: Senator Tester and staff can find additional information concerning historical UAP/UFOs vs. nuclear weapons events at the website of researcher Robert Hastings: UFOs & Nukes (ufohastings.com) Mr. Hastings’ research has been invaluable in uncovering the truth about the UAP/UFO vs. nuclear weapons nexus.

    Our gratitude to Senator Tester’s staff for taking the time to speak with us!

    Sincerely,

    Capt. Robert Salas (ret.), Dr. Joan Bird, Dr. Michael Masters, Dr. Richard O’Connor

  • An Interview with Robert Salas and Attorney James Lough

    An Interview with Robert Salas and Attorney James Lough

    They may not wear costumes like the Marvel comics’ superheroes but, as Congress continues to press for truth and transparency related to UFOs/UAPs, many Americans are coming to realize we really do have real life heroes within our ranks. Intel officer David Grusch is the latest, but many have come before him, all demanding US government truth and transparency regarding UFOs.

    Retired USAF Capt. Robert Salas is one of those. He has been advocating for and exposing the truth about the relationship between UFOs and nuclear weapons since the mid-1990s. If you’re just beginning to pay attention to the UFO controversy brewing in Congress, you must become informed about Mr. Salas’s eyewitness experience of a UFO that disabled ten nuclear missiles controlled out of Malmstrom AFB in March of 1967. This is critical information that the DoD has still not informed the people about – now 56 years after the fact!

    California attorney James Lough, author of The UFO Briefing Book he sent to over 200 members of Congress, provided invaluable insights to members of Congress involved in creating legislation like “The Gillibrand Amendment“. That legislation was Congress’s first major step toward wresting control over the UFO/UAP narrative from the DoD and placing it in the hands of Congress where it rightfully belongs. Lough is an example of a private citizen working behind the scenes to bring our government back into alignment with its stated mission to serve the will of the people. He offers important advice to citizens who want to become involved in doing the same.

  • The Date for a US HOR UFO Hearing Has Been Set   – July 26, 2023!

    The Date for a US HOR UFO Hearing Has Been Set – July 26, 2023!

    It is Sunday, July 16, 2023 and, to date, the New York Times still has offered no reporting about several recent and important developments related to UFO Disclosure. Like about the headline of this article, for example, or these important statements coming from author and journalist Michael Shellenberger below. Can there be any doubt that NYT and other mainstream print media news outlets work hand-in-glove with the Pentagon?

    Some are saying this July 26 Congressional UFO/UAP hearing to be chaired by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), Chairwoman of the HOR Oversight Committee, will be different than the others have been. UAPMAX claims this will be a momentous event that will bring about full and unfettered UFO Disclosure. That this hearing will mark the end of the UFO Truth Embargo and a new era for human civilization on Earth! UAPMAX says such revelations are coming and claims to have insider information to that effect. Before proceeding, I refer the reader to UAPMAX’s recent posting on July 14.

    On the bright side, this UAPMAX article presents a very positive view of this upcoming Congressional hearing. The author predicts a hearing in which star whistleblowers will appear who will lay all UFO cards out on the table, leaving the world in no possible doubt that we are not alone. Many of us are all-in for that outcome and I, for one, hope that’s what happens!

    However, if you read the UAPMAX article, you know the author (Steve Sprague) relates a dim view of those that his insider source calls “the G.A.N.Z.I.” and their business here on planet Earth. He/she seems to condemn them for defending themselves against aggressive US military pilots who were, quite likely, tasked to “shoot them down”. He/she expresses concern that The Others (I’m not going with “G.A.N.Z.I.” until we know more) are capable of disabling our nuclear weapons and will react with overwhelming and lethal force should we humans ever decide to use them. He/she laments that The Others regard humans as an inconvenient truth, an insignificant pest species to be severely dealt with, i.e., eradicated, if our actions on this planet that they apparently share with us go completely off the (nuclear) rails. The Others will tolerate our presence only so long as we do not seriously interfere with their mission here, whatever that may prove to be. He/she writes that The Others have been here on Earth for millennia, a claim that a good deal of other evidence does, in fact, support.

    But wait a minute! Let’s think about this rather negative perspective of The Others being proffered by UAPMAX’s source. I don’t think I agree with most of it, do you? So, human beings have been co-existing on this planet with The Others for thousands of years and yet, among the vast majority of people, the billions that have died and those billions still living, most have not had the slightest inkling of The Others‘ co-existence here with us? That doesn’t suggest too much meddling in the affairs of man to me. To me it suggests The Others keep their distance from us using all of the considerable technological advantages they can and do employ. According to Shellenberger, it appears they have even given or gifted some of their intact “spacecraft” to our US military for study. A pretty generous peace offering if true.

    If The Others were responsible for genetically engineering our species long ago and/or inspiring the development of our religions, they may find interest in observing how we handle the challenge of creating and maintaining a just, peaceful, and enduring civilization on Earth. Perhaps they have high hopes for us, or perhaps, as UAPMAX opines, they do not care a flip about us one way or the other. I don’t really care about that. I suspect their intentions toward us will become clearer as UFO Disclosure progresses and our world awakens to the fact that we are not alone.

    Many, including me, are going to want to find out the answers to these and hundreds of other questions we have heretofore had no answers to. I am truly excited about the possibilities that will arise in our post-UFO Disclosure reality! Possibilities imply choices, and we must make the right choices as we proceed into the evolution of our relationship with The Others. For those young people who have grown up with the dismal predictions of global climate change and the anticipation of global nuclear war, in my opinion, in two short weeks you may have good reason to live the rest of your lives in a much more hopeful state of mind!

    I will not condemn The Others for defending themselves against human aggression toward them, and I suspect there has been more of that that any of us realize. Do their technologically advanced UFOs actually “crash” (as in “crash retrievals”), or are they in fact being repeatedly shot at / shot down by our world’s militaries? If you have read Richard Dolan’s books UFOs and the National Security State, or Frank Feschino’s Shoot Them Down – The Flying Saucer Air Wars of 1952, then you know that hundreds of US military aircraft and pilots met their demise in the 1950s after taking aggressive actions against The Others. Our military pilots’ aircraft were outclassed, and their weapons outgunned when hostile actions were taken against The Others. No surprise there. The Others appear to be advanced in almost every way we can possibly imagine. Taking hostile actions against them was then and still is today, simply stated, stupid. We will have to learn how to live beside them and, if possible, work with them if this UFO story is going to end well.

    And what about our nuclear weapons? Well, first off, can we all agree that nuclear weapons of any description are both immoral and unethical? That The Others are right to shut them down? Minute by minute, day after day, our nuclear weapons threaten to annihilate our own global civilization and the biosphere of this planet, and possibly even the lives of The Others while we sit back and fail to look at ourselves in The Others‘ mirror. This mindset has to be some variant of insanity. We smugly think how smart and advanced “we”, that is our “atomic scientists” are for having developed these abominable weapons that can end everything for everyone over the span of a few heartbeats, and with ZERO consideration for all species with whom we share this jewel of a planet. The Others must apparently now be included in the nuclear weapons equation. Will we be able to do this? If UAPMAX’s source is correct, we had better be able to do this. I cannot speak for you, but I don’t mind a neighbor making a friendly suggestion that might possibly save my house and my family from sudden and complete destruction. Yes, because nuclear weapons are intended to be dropped on the heads of millions of unsuspecting, non-combatant civilians living in the largest cities to inflict the most damage possible, nuclear weapons are immoral and ethical. They must be banned.

    From what I presently know, our nuclear weapons scare me a lot more than aliens. Rather than resulting from an act of volition, our future nuclear annihilation will more likely come from a mistaken ICBM launch warning signal presumed to be from a nuclear adversary, a glitch in a computer system, or a rogue “world leader” willing to burn it all down to radioactive ashes if he/she doesn’t get their way. Our human population is chock-full of narcissists, some of whom become important political leaders like North Korea’s Kim Jong-Un. Or, our nuclear demise may simply come from a human error, like a wrench socket dropped into a missile silo, or a live nuclear weapon dropped on Goldsboro, North Carolina! These kinds of human-error events have already happened! The nuclear clock is ticking! Some unforeseen and unpredictable circumstance will bring all our efforts toward finally creating a just, peaceful, enlightened, and enduring human civilization on Earth to an abrupt and permanent halt if we continue in the direction we are going. The Others apparently see this. Why can’t we? I will say it again, The Others are right to shut them down. We should too.

    Is UAPMAX’s source truly justified in his/her characterization of The Others as “scary” and “very scary”, or is the source/author looking only through a prism of anthropocentric superiority – despite the mountain of evidence to the contrary? What I am certain of is that humanity, all of us, are going to need to re-define what it means to be a human being living in a vast universe that is likely teeming with intelligent alien life. Some of that alien life, the evidence shows, is socially, technologically, and scientifically far more advanced than we are in the year 2023. It is clear we have a lot of catching up to do. If we can approach our relationship with The Others with some measure of humility, leave the chest-thumping behind as a part of our primate past, and envision a world where we live in a peaceful coexistence with The Others and the other Others who will follow their path to Earth’s door, then we may have a chance at eventually becoming what we all hope for. Maybe that’s what they hope for us as well. Our failure to meet these serious challenges will likely be made obvious to us rather quickly. That promise has been made, according to UAPMAX’s source.

    We are told in the UAPMAX article that President Biden has now met with three of The Others using some type of an ear bud translation device. Alarmingly, according to Steve Sprague’s source, President Biden was first introduced to the reality of The Others in March 2023. Therefore, Biden was President of the US for over 2 years before he was granted this knowledge about the existence of The Others? By law, we are supposed to have a civilian-controlled military in this country. With the July 26 hearing we may soon realize just how far the UD DoD has overstepped their authority to hide away critical information about the reality we have been living in for our entire lives going back to at least the time of the Roswell UFO recovery in July 1947. All of this has been under the rubric of “National Security”. Congress is going to have to address this shocking lack of oversight in the halls of our government!

    Anyway, we can hope this was a fruitful meeting and that Biden was admonished to never entertain the notion of actually deploying nuclear weapons. We can hope that Biden has been given enough information to guide our evolving relationship with The Others in an enlightened manner. By that I mean avoiding direct military confrontation, getting Congress involved in any decisions having to do with our diplomatic relations with them, and re-assessing our relationship with The Others in daily briefings. Hopefully he will move to have the United Nations involved in this soon, if it is not involved already.

    That’s my take on the UAPMAX article. What’s yours? Please leave your constructive comments below.
