Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick had a few choice words for the public on his way out the door of the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office
Sean Kirkpatrick was once the man in charge of a D.C.-backed agency tasked with investigating claims into unidentified anomalous phenomena, the new term for what most people still call UFOs. He stepped down from the position in December, and has now published a excoriating farewell letter in Scientific American detailing some of the reasons why.
So why did he stop hunting for UFOs on behalf of the American government? In short: Because congressional leaders believe in conspiracy theories with absolutely no substantial proof. “Our efforts were ultimately overwhelmed by sensational but unsupported claims that ignored contradictory evidence yet captured the attention of policy makers and the public, driving legislative battles and dominating the public narrative,” Kirkpatrick said in Scientific American.

I don’t know man, sounds like something an alien would say
And as expected the conversation shifts from the facts gathered by the article to every other kind of speculation possible. Didn’t even have time to make popcorn.
Shout-out to the All Domain Research Office’s reporting website, that requires being a federal employee and submitting unclassified proof.
Nothing worth knowing will be unclassified, that’s his basis for “nobody submitted any proof”
Submitting classified information would be illegal. How in the world could they require anything else?
Was that the only way to reach out or submit proof?
That’s the only one I could find.
Also, AARO didn’t even have a website until August 31 2023. Sean Kirkpatrick admitted to speaking with people like David Grusch prior to officially starting his role. But, since these didn’t go through official reporting channels they never got reviewed. DOD even released a report admitting to failing at documenting UAP.
Here’s the link to the actual letter, for any one curious
it’s worth a read. Though, ask yourself… given the capability of interstellar travel, and knowing humans had the psychotic tendency to nuke themselves… multiple times… Would you visit here on vacation?
I just want to know what the lights on all those UFOs people see are for. Too dark in space?
Aliens obey FAA regulations regarding navigation lights.
All these sweaties have no imagination.
I dont need faster than light travel, I just have to have developed earlier than you.
You know what a Von Newman probe is? Its a machine that is capable of self replication.
So lets say that thousands of years ago an alien species identifies solar systems with planets inside their habitable zones and launches Von Newman probes at them - no faster than light travel required.
Also explains crashes, the mini-probes, built by the “mothership” are literally that - expendable.
We are literally talking about doing something similar to Alpha Centurai
You know what a Von Newman probe is?
No, please do tell us what a Von “Newman” probe is.
He’s actually upset about continued interest in UFOs despite unsubstantiated theories and contradicting evidence rather than conspiracy theories, which would be fair it was true.
But it isn’t all contradicting evidence and unsubstantiated according to the congressman on these inquiries, and Congress gets to choose how to spend money anyway, so this is actually a weird article about this one guy who’s unreasonably upset people are investigating UFOs.
