He also mentioned that the US and other countries possess advanced UAP technology.
- What is the broader context and significance of this hearing in relation to previous investigations?
- The hearing is part of a series investigating UAPs, reflecting a growing interest in the subject within the US government and public. NASA recently appointed a director for UAP studies, highlighting the increased attention this topic is receiving.
