In July of 2023, three military veterans, including a former Air Force intelligence officer testified before Congress and claimed that the U.S. government has run a reverse engineering program for decades based off recovered spacecraft of alien origin.
The former officer also claims that the U.S. had recovered non-human "biologics" from the crash sites.
"It is my hope that the revelations we unearth through investigations of the Non-Human Reverse Engineering Programs I have reported will act as an ontological [earth-shattering] shock, a catalyst for a global reassessment of our priorities. As we move forward on this path, we might be poised to enable extraordinary technological progress in a future where our civilization surpasses the current state-of-the-art in propulsion, material science, energy production and storage," retired Major David Grusch said to open his testimony to the House Oversight Committee.
