1 #ufotwitter - Excerpt of @SenatorReid's forward to, "Skinwalkers at the Pentagon."

"Regardless of when AAWSAP ended or when AATIP began, the facts are undeniable. Data on #UAPs exist; they need to be analyzed; more data needs to be collected; and the public should be informed
2 Reid: "as much as possible. The confusion over these 2 programs also underscores why the U.S. gov't needs to establish and fully fund a centralized & coordinated effort focusing on the scientific, technological, & national security implications of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena.
3 Reid: "From whatever hypothesis you begin with - UAPs being technological leaps from foreign adversaries, natural occurrences distorting visual perception, visitations from other dimensions, or technology from otherworldly sources - the key point is we need to engage
4 Reid: "the best minds in science to explore the data we know exists.

"I don’t understand some of the science or know what to make of the paranormal occurrences. The more we learn about UAPs, the more we don’t know. That is the key to it all. The U.S. government, academics, and
5 Reid: "industry leaders need to research UAPs and related phenomena. They also need to keep the public informed, which is why journalists like @g_knapp reporting on the subject also play a vital role in fostering transparency. The American people can handle the truth.
6 Reid: "Our universe is vast. Science tells us that there are 500 million planets inside our galaxy that could potentially support life - that’s just in the Milky Way. Many have asked me, 'what if research shows UAPs are coming from someplace else?' My response continues
7 Reid: "to be, 'so what?' People used to believe that the Earth is flat, bloodletting is a panacea, climate change is fake, the COVID-19 pandemic is a hoax, and UAPs are delusions to be ignored.

"We need to have our country’s best & brightest minds focused on researching these
8 Reid: " incredible phenomena. And we need to establish a permanent and funded office to focus on UAPs.

"In a functioning democracy, we must constantly balance the competing priorities of government secrecy and transparency. I believe that there is information uncovered by
9 Reid: "the government’s covert investigations into UAPs that can be disclosed to the public without harming our national security. Transparency is the best medicine for good government. We’ve made progress, but there’s more work to be done. "
10 I'm so glad Senator Reid was around long enough to see the passage of the NDAA with the @SenGillibrand amendment and a permanent #UFO office that will follow the data. None of that happens if not for the tenacious Senator from Nevada. ❤️
foreword.

Greenstreet: "Does the gov't know what’s going on & they’re keeping it a secret?"

Dr. Eric Davis: "I think so. Yeah, I think there’s a lot of evidence that the gov't has known, but the problem is, it’s so outside the realm of of human comprehension that they can’t
2 ED: "deal with it on a legislative basis, they can’t deal with it on a military, operational basis, they can’t deal with it on the basis of a presidential policy. So they just ignore it and just sweep it under the rug and let a finite group of scientists and engineers and
3 ED: "investigators work together to either get funded to investigate and evaluate it or they don’t get funding for long periods of time and nothing gets done! They just hold onto the information and it just collects cobwebs in the classified, storage warehouses."

1 Excerpt from:

ufojoe.net/wilsondavis2

"On the January 28, 2018 episode of Coast to Coast AM with George Knapp, Dr. Davis described a #UFO sighting he had in Tucson, Arizona in May of 1989, while doing his PhD dissertation on the Voyager missions to Jupiter. Davis, his wife &
2 "other students were at a swimming party in the back of his dissertation supervisor’s house when he and his wife saw a black, boomerang-shaped object in broad daylight.

"In May 2018, Davis was the guest on Open Minds UFO Radio, with host, Alejandro Rojas. Eventually, the
3 "conversation turned to #UFO crashes and while Rojas said he was pretty skeptical about the subject, Davis jumped right in and said there have been crashes all over the world. Since these details are so important, I’m going to transcribe everything that Dr. Davis said.

1 #ufotwitter - Lots to say about this from @BrandiVincent_, featuring quotes from @LtTimMcMillan & @ChrisKMellon. Of course, neither of them could bring themselves to utter the acronym, AAWSAP, which was run by Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies.

nextgov.com/emerging-tech/…
2 Dr. Colm Kelleher, a molecular biologist & former deputy administrator for BAASS, told me, "AAWSAP was probably the broadest scope, largest #UFO program ever conducted by the United States gov't. And certainly, if u compare it against Project Sign, Grudge & Blue Book, that’s
3 probably accurate."

Vincent writes, "In the 2000s, Congress approved millions in funding to back the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, or AATIP. That effort encompassing UFO sighting-aligned research."

No, that was AAWSAP. And specifically, they

1 Maybe some tension. "Skinwalkers" was about AAWSAP, not AATIP, so. In one of the few interviews Lacatski gave, he said this about AAWSAP/AATIP mix-up in media:

"Now, AATIP in the Pentagon, as described in the articles, was basically zero funded, looked @ specific military #UFO
2 JL: "encounters – and very important ones because they had film – and it had no contract. So getting back to how did this mix up occur? I think it’s not deliberate, it’s not due to to authors, to television personalities, etc. It’s the fact we were running, not an official SAP,
3 JL: "but a closed program. I can tell you for a fact that within my own office, they did not know, except leadership, that this contract was being run. They had no idea whatsoever. Our security was that tight."

1 @BryceZabel: "We've acknowledged to ourselves, officially, that these things are real. Now we have an obligation to look into what that means. And if the search for what that means leads to having to accept a little woo in our lives, then I'm sorry, tough break for the people

1 Agree 100%. I wanted to add that to my thread but left it alone. Bolender memo. After Blue Book ended, "reports of #UFOs which could affect national security would continue to be handled through the standard Air Force procedures designed for this purpose.”
2 Source: mysterywire.com/ufo/the-bolend…

And...

"Physicist and longtime CIA contractor Dr. Hal Puthoff says the end of Blue Book was not the end of UFO programs.

'Nonetheless, as far as the public was concerned, that was it,' Dr. Puthoff said during a 2018 talk in Las Vegas.
3 HP: “'I mean, even the Air Force Public Affairs Office put out circulars all the time in response to questions saying, no while we gave this up in 1969. What, in fact did occur was that there were programs going on behind the scenes anyway, as required by the Bolender Memo.'”
