Why UAP Stories Keep Resurfacing on News? Retired Intelligence Community Whistleblower Claims US Government Hides Crashed UFOs
For years, there have been non-stop and unconfirmed stories about Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs) that NASA decided to study. A new report explained why this topic has never left the news.
Why UAP Stories Never Leave the News?
Fox Television's 1995 medical autopsy of a space extraterrestrial captured the attention of millions of viewers. The 17-minute black and white film allegedly featured military physicians tending to an extraterrestrial who had perished in a flying saucer collision and looked bloated and humanoid, Scientific American reported.
Fox ran the presentation twice more that year, including "added footage" of the UFO wreckage because it caused such a stir. Even then, the hoax-recycling the Roswell legend, according to which the American government discovered an alien craft in the New Mexico desert in 1947-was well-worn.
Americans consume this material at an insatiable rate. The Roswell incident, inspired by an actual cold war episode in which a balloon from a then-top-secret U.S. military project had dropped nearby, was the first account of aliens having crashed. It coincided with the emergence of the flying saucer phenomenon. Since then, news and entertainment organizations have profited handsomely from the crashed saucer myth and UFOs. Also, it satisfied humans' deep craving for mystery.
It goes beyond that. According to author Marc Fitch in "Paranormal Nation: Why America Needs Ghosts, UFOs, and Bigfoot," we continue to be believers despite decades of scientific and societal advancement. This is a central theme of the popular X-Files television series from the 1990s, which is encapsulated on the poster of a flying saucer that hangs above Agent Mulder's office wall with the words "I want to believe."
It also explains why Scott Brando is constantly playing whack-a-mole as he diligently tracks down and disproves fake UFO videos that frequently go viral online. According to his e-mail to Scientific American, individuals fall for these hoaxes because they "need to believe something extraordinary" or "satisfy their craving for mystery."
Promoters of UFOs are skilled at satisfying this human yearning for mystery, and they have grown in number recently. This is why all the recycling and reworking of old UFO stories, including "Men in Black."
Whistleblower Claims U.S. Government Hides Crashed UFOs
The most recent iteration of this myth is the widely reported tale of crashed UFOs that the U.S. government allegedly has been keeping a secret for many years. This assertion was made in June by a recently retired "whistleblower" from the intelligence community, as had been done in years prior. Our fervent anticipation has not been tempered by the fact that the most recent "bombshell" arrived without any supporting information. "Are we finally prepared to acknowledge that aliens are the cause of UFOs?" the Daily Beast's title asked.
According to ABC News, Las Vegas police received a 911 call on May 1 over something that crashed in their backyard. In the audio, the caller said his father and brother were working on their truck in the backyard when something hit.
The thing, which they believed was a UFO, reportedly fell from the sky. It had lights when it hit down and made a big impact. They allegedly felt its energy and heard footsteps. Then they saw an eight-foot person beside it and another inside with big eyes looking at them. The caller said the extraterrestrial beings were big and stood between eight to 10-foot.
"They're not human. One-hundred percent, they're not human," the caller said.
