Whistleblowers have reported UFO sightings around U.S. nuclear sites dating back to the 1940s and ’50s. Secretary of the Department of Energy (DOE) Jennifer Granholm has dismissed these reports as sightings of drones. During a Congressional Oversight Committee hearing, Rep. Anna Paulina Luna questioned Granholm about the DOE’s involvement in reverse engineering crashed alien technology and collaborating with a counter-terrorism task force. Granholm’s admission that the DOE works with the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) raised eyebrows, as JSOC is believed to retrieve crashed alien crafts and reverse engineer the technology.
Investigative journalist and UFO expert Jeremy Corbell stated that JSOC’s involvement with alien technology is a significant issue, as it suggests a deeper level of government knowledge and involvement in UFO-related activities. Although JSOC has denied these allegations in the past, Corbell believes that their connection to the crash retrieval program is likely under the authority of the CIA. Luna emphasized the need for transparency from the government and stated that over 50% of Americans believe that Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) potentially exist, necessitating serious investigation and acknowledgment by federal agencies.
Luna submitted nine questions to the DOE regarding unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and UAS designations, UAP incursions, security measures at critical infrastructure locations, data collection methods related to UAP sightings, health and safety protocols regarding UAP encounters, and public disclosure of UAP incidents. Granholm had previously stated that the sightings reported near nuclear facilities were drones, not UFOs, and that safety protocols and defenses were in place to handle any threats. Granholm and Luna’s exchange revealed a discrepancy between the government’s official stance on UFO sightings and the reported experiences of whistleblowers.
The declassified document regarding the UFO program Kona Blue detailed the government’s efforts to collect crashed alien technology for reverse engineering. Former U.S. Sen. Harry Reid mentioned in a letter that significant progress had been made in identifying unconventional aerospace-related findings, necessitating extraordinary protection for the technologies. Additionally, the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) investigated allegations of a crash retrieval program and mentioned Kona Blue in its report. The AARO found that the project was proposed but never approved, and Homeland Security disapproved it due to concerns about the project’s justification.
The controversy surrounding UFO sightings at nuclear sites has raised questions about the government’s transparency and handling of UAP incidents. Luna’s inquiries to the DOE reflect a concern for public safety and awareness regarding potential UAP threats. Despite the government’s dismissal of UFO sightings as drones, the history of reported sightings and the involvement of agencies like JSOC suggest a deeper level of involvement and knowledge regarding alien technology. Moving forward, Luna and other lawmakers are pushing for greater transparency and disclosure of information related to UAP sightings and the government’s response to potential threats.
