In December 2020, just before Donald Trump left the White House, the CIA was given six months to release all of the evidence it had gathered in the last 14 years about UFOs. So later this month a highly anticipated report will be released.
Guardian reporter Adam Gabbatt tells Anushka Asthana that in recent years a series of government videos showing unidentified objects have been released, including footage from a navy F-18 fighter jet which showed an oblong object flying through the sky near San Diego in 2004. The wave of recent videos and the imminent release of the government report has ignited excitement around unidentified flying objects not seen for years.
Nick Pope spent the early 1990s investigating UFOs for the British Ministry of Defence. He tells Anushka that despite mockery from some of his colleagues, the idea that we are not alone in the universe and may have been visited is worth serious consideration.
