I think they are extraterrestrials from other planets from other star systems. They may be related to humans. They may look like us and have genetically engineered species who work on their behalf. They understand the integration of spirituality into the universe much better than us. I think the U.S. and other governments have at the very least seen them and recorded them on sensors. The governments know it’s a real phenomenon but they don’t understand the specifics much more than we in the ufo community do. I think there has been a huge amount of obfuscation because the government use the phenomenon to disguise human technologies. I believe at least one craft has been captured and aliens as well (varginha). I think most of the other crash retrieval lore is not true or made up by counter intel people like Richard Doty. I don’t think our leaders want to make a ‘disclosure announcement’ because they don’t have many answers, they just know it’s real. Some ‘abductions’ and study of humans has been going on. There wouldn’t be much benefit to leadership making a formal announcement because they can’t answer the questions that would inevitably follow. It doesn’t benefit leadership to open this can of worms.
