    Podcast Summary

    • A Former Government Official's Lifelong Interest in UFOsDespite the stigma and political risks, a former intelligence officer shares his lifelong interest in UFOs, recounting encounters and attempts to share evidence with colleagues.

      Former government official Chris Mellon, who spent decades working in intelligence and security roles for the U.S. government, including serving under Senator Cohen at the Pentagon, has had a lifelong interest in UFOs. He shared his early encounter with a UFO at the age of seven, which sparked his curiosity. However, due to his professional background and the stigma surrounding UFOs, he kept his interest concealed for years. He recounted one instance where he managed to obtain and share a UFO video with Senator Cohen and others, but the response was underwhelming. Mellon emphasized that discussing UFOs in serious terms was politically risky and could lead to being dismissed as a loon. Despite this, he continued to be intrigued by the phenomenon and carefully confided in a few trusted individuals. He also shared an unsuccessful attempt to locate a UFO video that was allegedly requested by President Clinton.

    • Government's Changing Attitude Towards UFOsOnce shunned and dismissed, UFO sightings are now receiving more attention and investigation due to changing public perception and recent military encounters. However, government response has evolved from debunking to investigation due to shifting priorities and public pressure.

      The perception and discussion around UFOs in Washington have significantly changed in recent years, with people feeling more permitted to talk about the phenomenon following the New York Times article in 2017. However, this was not always the case. The government's response to UFO sightings dates back to the Robertson Panel Commission in 1953, which advocated debunking and discrediting the issue due to potential national security concerns. Project Blue Book, which ran during this era, saw people like Thronomer Allen Heineck debunking cases but later becoming believers. Heineck felt embarrassed when his debunking efforts were met with public backlash, and he eventually changed his stance. Despite being inside the government, the speaker did not witness widespread reporting or investigation of UFO sightings, with the exception of a few isolated instances. Only in recent years, with the formation of groups like those led by Lou Elizondo, have military encounters with UFOs started to receive more attention and investigation. The Pentagon's lack of interest in the phenomenon is due in part to the absence of a formal department or mandate to investigate such occurrences. However, the DOD has recently announced an IG investigation into the phenomenon.

    • Unclear DOD handling of UFO sightingsSkepticism and ridicule towards UFO reports may hinder investigation, but credible sightings and data can lead to increased interest and acknowledgement from Congress

      The handling of UFO sightings by the Department of Defense (DOD) has been unclear and lacked proper communication up the chain of command. Cases like the Nimitz incident in 2004, where pilots reported encountering unusual, radar-tracked objects with extraordinary capabilities, were met with skepticism and ridicule. This reluctance to report and investigate UFOs may be due to the stigma attached to the subject. However, credible sightings, like the one described, and supporting data from various sensors, eventually led to increased interest from Congress, resulting in the Defense Department acknowledging the authenticity of related videos and agreeing to take the issue seriously.

    • Possible Encounters with Extraterrestrial Life or ProbesDespite skepticism, the vastness of the universe increases the possibility of encountering extraterrestrial life or their probes. NASA and others invest in searching, while unexplained phenomena continue to appear. The implications of contact are significant.

      While the existence of UFOs is a topic often met with skepticism and ridicule, given the vastness of the universe and the discovery of numerous Goldilocks zone planets, it's not entirely impossible that we could be encountering extraterrestrial life or their probes. NASA and other organizations invest billions in searching for alien life, while unexplained phenomena continue to appear in our skies. Some suggest these could be advanced probes, while others propose alternative explanations. The scientific community's reluctance to entertain the idea of extraterrestrial life despite evidence is noteworthy. The potential implications of such contact are significant, making it an important topic worth serious consideration.

      There have been multiple unexplained encounters between U.S. military personnel and unidentified flying objects (UFOs) over the past few decades. Two notable instances include the New York Times reporting on a classified Defense Department program investigating UFOs and the "Bob Lazar" documentary detailing his claims of reverse-engineering a crashed UFO in the late 1980s. Another intriguing encounter was recorded on a Navy gimbal video, which shows an object moving in a strange manner and rotating, defying explanation. The objects were tracked using forward-looking infrared radar and were not identified. Some footage was released through proper channels, despite the usual bureaucratic hurdles, due to concerns about the national security situation and the lack of attention given to the issue. The release of this information came after efforts to bring it to higher-level officials, who were protective of their reputations and concerned about potential political fallout. The sources of this information were concerned individuals who felt compelled to take the issue out of normal channels due to its lack of progress within the Defense Department. In some cases, radar was used to locate the objects before attempts were made to intercept them. The exact origins and nature of these objects remain a mystery.

    • The Ocean's Vastness Makes it an Ideal Hideout or Laboratory for SecretsDespite technological advancements, the enormous size and depth of the ocean make it impossible to survey every inch, making it an attractive place for hidden activities or undiscovered wonders.

      The vastness and unexplored nature of the ocean make it an ideal place to hide objects or conduct clandestine activities. While advanced technologies like radars and sonars can help in searches, the enormous size of the ocean makes it practically impossible to survey every inch. For instance, the Nimitz Carrier Strike Group had a precise location for an intercept but could only look under a few square miles around it for a detailed search. Reconnaissance capabilities have improved significantly with advancements in technology, but covering the entire ocean is a daunting task. Additionally, some objects or underwater structures may have the ability to evade detection, such as the object the pilots encountered which interfered with their systems.
