Speak Up: Mysterious objects in the sky

Retired Maj. David Grusch, a former Air Force intelligence officer, testified in a congressional hearing July 26 that he had been “informed in the course of my official duties of a multidecade UAP (unidentified aerial phenomena) crash retrieval and reverse engineering program” and that the U.S. likely has been aware of “nonhuman” activity since the 1930s. The Pentagon has denied his claims. Do you think otherworldly creatures exist? If the U.S. government has evidence of extraterrestrial objects or beings, should that be made public?
