Former US soldiers report mysterious UFO sightings. The secret services are expected to take a position in the coming weeks.
Are we alone in the universe? This question has not yet been clarified, numerous conspiracy theories revolve around UFO sightings and aliens. Above all, the USA and above all the Department of Defense are called upon again and again when it comes to trying to prove that UFOs exist. In fact, US soldiers repeatedly report encounters with unidentified flying objects, and numerous recordings of alleged UFO sightings are circulating on the Internet.
Now the US television show “60 Minutes” has taken on the mysterious topic. For example, the former Navy soldier Ryan Graves reports on the program that pilots have been seeing UFOs over the Atlantic “every day for several years”. His opinion: UFOs should not be seen as a “strange conspiracy theory”, but as a “very real risk to national security”. Graves complains: “If it were tactical jets from another country, that would be a big issue”. However, because the objects are a little different, one is “unwilling to look the problem in the face,” he complains. “We ignore the fact that they are out there watching us every day.”
US soldiers report UFO sightings – what is it?
The question remains: what is it? Former Navy man Graves has three possible explanations for the phenomena that he himself claims to have seen: either it is a matter of top-secret US technology, foreign espionage instruments or something that does not come from this planet.
Other former Navy pilots also comment on their alleged UFO sightings in “60 Minutes”. Two former pilots report on how they discovered a so-called “UAP” (unidentified aerial phenomena) during an exercise and tried to follow it. It was about the size of a fighter aircraft, had no markings and had no wings, according to eyewitnesses. The object accelerated so quickly that it seemed to disappear, according to the soldiers, who wanted to see the object up close. Seconds later it reappeared 60 miles away.
How does the Pentagon deal with UFO sightings?
In “60 Minutes “.
As reported by CNN, the Pentagon has ignored reports of alleged UFO sightings for years. The Department of Defense is currently investigating how the issue of UFOs, or “UAPs”, as the Pentagon calls the phenomenon, has been dealt with in the past. The subject seems to be becoming more important in the Pentagon: In April 2021, the US Department of Defense confirmed that photos and videos taken by Navy soldiers in 2019 are real. You can see triangular objects blinking and moving through the clouds. Last year the Pentagon itself published three short videos of “UAPs”.
USA has had a UFO task force since 2020 – report is expected
Since August 2020 there has been a group within the US intelligence service Office of Naval Intelligence that is supposed to collect, analyze and catalog alleged UFO sightings. Soldiers should report their sightings of inexplicable aerial phenomena to the “Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force”.

In June 2021, the US Congress expects a report from the US intelligence services on what they know about UFOs. This should contain detailed analyzes of UFO sightings and information that the Office of Naval Intelligence, the newly formed Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force and the FBI have compiled.
“What the Pentagon confirms is that there are indeed planes that violate restricted airspace,” Mellon said at “60 Minutes”. “This has happened and continues to happen, and we don’t know where they’re coming from, we don’t understand the technology,” Mellon said. It will be interesting to see whether the UFO report to the congress will provide answers. (Tanja Banner)
