The federal government holds shocking evidence of UFOs which proves we are not alone \u2014 including satellite imagery of out-of-this world craft that look like nothing \u201cwe have built,\u201d an expert with knowledge of the documents told The Post.<\/p>\n
The government\u2019s trove of UFO docs is massive and includes stunning photos and videos, according to Christopher Mellon, the former deputy assistant secretary of defense intelligence during the Clinton and Bush administrations.<\/p>\n
Publicly disclosing the information would take UFO discourse \u201cto another level,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Under President Trump\u2019s order two weeks ago, Secretary of War Pete Hegseth will direct the release\u00a0of \u201cfiles related to\u201d aliens, UFOs, and \u201call other information connected to\u201d<\/a>\u00a0the \u201chighly complex\u201d subject matter, the president wrote on Truth Social.<\/a><\/p>\n While the announcement spurred federal agencies, including the White House and the Pentagon, to scramble, there has been no official word on what will be released and when.<\/p>\n The most compelling piece of data, Mellon claimed, are clear satellite photos of craft in space above the Earth that are obviously not manmade.<\/p>\n \u201cWe have satellite imagery of craft that sure don\u2019t look like anything that we have built or constructed,\u201d Mellon said.<\/p>\n Those same convincing images of craft engaging in \u201cactions that are difficult to explain\u201d were referenced by ex-director of national intelligence and current CIA director John Ratcliffe in a 2021 Fox News interview<\/a>.<\/p>\n In 2017, Mellon played a key role in the release of three now famous US military radar images of Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon, or UAPs<\/a>, referred to as the \u201cTic Tac,\u201d<\/a> \u201cGOFAST,\u201d and \u201cGimbal\u201d \u2014 and he said there are more just like those on government hard drives.<\/p>\n Chris Mellon, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Intelligence, told The Post the government has many videos and photos of UFOs which have yet to be released to the public.

Mike Rounds (R-South Dakota), senior member of the Senate Armed Service Committee, who introduced the UAP Disclosure Act with Minority Leader Chuck Schumer in 2023, is hoping for a broad release that ensures US military secrets are preserved.<\/p>\n Rounds hopes for \u201cas much disclosure as we can get with regard to just being honest to the American people about what we see that we either don\u2019t know about or that we\u2019re learning about.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd I just want to make sure that whatever we put out, we do not impact our own national security capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n Additional reporting by Geoff Earle<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The federal government holds shocking evidence of UFOs which proves we are not alone \u2014 including satellite imagery…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":163424,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[9,11,10,87,1069,6786,58,5561,1076],"class_list":["post-163423","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news","tag-politics","tag-trump","tag-ufos","tag-us-news","tag-white-house","tag-world-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/163423","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=163423"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/163423\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/163424"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=163423"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=163423"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=163423"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
