Whether it was an alien vehicle that floated over Manhattan last week or simply a cluster of escaped balloons, the sighting tells us that UFO reports are quickly entering the mainstream as multimedia devices like phone cameras become increasingly abundant.
If the U.S. government is wise, it will do what the government of the United Kingdom is already doing, declassifying their UFO files and moving toward full disclosure of the visits of extraterrestrial aliens to earth.
Consider some of the facts we already know:
Former military officials held a press conference at the National Press Club last month to testify about UFO activity that they have seen and to request openness from the U.S. government. Over 120 such officials have come forward.
These former officials’ stories of UFOs visiting nuclear weapons facilities leading to the shutdown of nuclear weapons were backed up by documentation showing the weapons were indeed inexplicably shut down.
In 2008, astronaut Dr. Edgar Mitchell, who became the sixth man to walk on the moon, told British radio station Kerrang!, “We have been visited on this planet and the UFO phenomenon is real, though it has been covered up by our governments for a very long time.”
In 2007, former Arizona Gov. Fife Symington spoke about an experience he had 10 years earlier while he was in office. Symington and hundreds of other Arizonans were out looking for the Phoenix Lights when they saw a UFO fly overhead.
“As a pilot and a former Air Force officer, I can definitively say that this craft did not resemble any man-made object I'd ever seen,” said Symington in a commentary published by CNN.
These are just a few of the many credible reports of visitors and vehicles not likely from our planet.
What could be the reason for the authorities’ unwillingness to make the facts known? Most likely, it is because of how little they know. Telling people who live under your leadership about something potentially very significant that you neither remotely understand nor control seems a dangerous proposition. Standing in their shoes, it makes sense in the way that it makes sense that a parent doesn’t want to tell his child something very serious and weighty, because he still wants time to sort things out on his own.
But, time is up now, and ready or not, the world must know.
The real underlying issue is that modern America is built on modern science, which does a lot of practical good, but also attempts to answer questions as far flung as how humans were created, what is the fastest speed, what is the smallest particle, what is the boundary of the universe, and so on. We, in the modern world, have simply grown too attached to the far flung answers given by science about pretty much everything. Sure, there are religious and spiritual concepts, but science seems so practical, down-to-earth, and productive.
The real threat people feel from acknowledging alien contact—and what makes them uncomfortable and leads them to make endless jokes about people who claim to see aliens or alien ships—is that if aliens have visited the earth, their technology is incredibly advanced and more sophisticated than ours. Our seemingly informed scientific view of everything is nothing more than the first page in a 10,000-page book.
To our government I say this: we live in a new age of truth and it’s time for full disclosure about alien contact. It’s time to turn the page.
