Former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said that unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), also known as UFOs, appear to display technology that the United States doesn’t have and can’t defend against.
Ratcliffe made the remarks in an interview on Fox News that aired June 26, one day after the public release of a much-anticipated government report on UAP or UFOs (pdf), which found “no clear indications that there is any non-terrestrial explanation” for the aerial phenomena, although it left open the possibility of an alien origin.
