In an interview with Liberation Times, retired Rear Admiral and former Acting Administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Tim Gallaudet, underscored the potential threat of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) to submariners.
I’m always amazed at public reaction to the topic. I think a lot of people are open to the idea or already embrace it, but the skeptics are the most vocal. YouGov did a poll in March that showed around 60% of Americans believe the government is concealing info on UFOs with around 32% believing UFOs may be alien. However, the news and social media may not always reflect it. It doesn’t take much to drown out the news coming out of Congress. A few hit piece articles and over zealous skeptics online create an environment where casual believers don’t feel comfortable opening up.
Luckily, it does sound like Congress is still making progress in the background with talks of another hearing and attempting to fill the gaps left in what passed of the Schumer amendment. The support is there with plenty in the government and ample in the public. Disclosure will continue to be a frustrating process, but strides are being made.
