Senate UFO hearing: No evidence of extraterrestrial life but concerns about Russian and Chinese technology.

At a Senate UFO hearing the head of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) said there was no evidence of extraterrestrial life but there are concerns about Russian and Chinese technology. Fox News. Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick said that there were indicators that many of the UFO sightings could be related to foreign capabilities. He didn't explain that comment but did say that both Russia and China are rapidly advancing in their technologies. The review was the 2nd Senate hearing on the UFO issue in many years following the 1st one in 50 years last May. UFO's, called UAP's by the Defense Department, have been seen more commonly recently and the stigma in reporting them is mostly gone since the release of several videos recorded by the military. The issue became even more relevant after the shoot-down of a Chinese spy balloon and several other unknown objects last February. 

My Comment:

This hearing wasn't widely reported on by the media but I do think it's pretty important. The question of what UFO's are is an incredibly important one and it's one that the government hasn't openly tried to solve until now. 

I have always said that none of the solutions to the question are good. Obviously if the UAP's really are extraterrestrial that's a whole new world we would be living it. It would pretty much change everything, even if the aliens were neutral or friendly. And if they were hostile? Well that's pretty much it then, as there would be likely nothing we could do about them. 

That was always the least likely answer to the question. It was always more likely that these objects were advanced earth tech, either from our government, a foreign government or even a private organization. Given the capabilities that some of these objects have shown that is deeply concerning since they are far beyond the capabilities of anything publicly known. 

Supposedly the idea that these things are American technology has been discredited by the government. Of course, given how untrustworthy the government is about everything else we have very little reason to trust them. Some people have argued that the entire UAP topic is just a way for the Pentagon to "soft-disclose" new technology but I doubt that is the case. 

I do think that many of these sightings have now been explained. I am guessing that many of these objects were in fact Chinese spy balloons like the one that was shot down this February. I doubt that the balloon was the first one that showed up and probably have been seen by American pilots. I think that probably explains many, if not all the UAP's seen recently. 

But there are still many that aren't explained and it's very possible that they are Chinese or Russians. I am thinking they are probably Chinese since I think if Russia did have advanced unknown technology we would be hearing about it considering they believe the Ukraine war to be an existential crisis. That leaves China as the most likely suspect and if it is their technology that might not bode well for a war between the United States and Taiwan. 

The final possibility is that these objects are from some shadow organization that has advanced technology but isn't beholden to any government. I find that fairly unlikely but it is possible. If true that would be a very disturbing situation as how would a private organization manage to create these things?

Either way it is good that these questions are being asked and that the government is at least appearing to be somewhat transparent on the issue. I am sure they are hiding quite a bit of things for us, but at least the issue is being discussed...
