    The Facts

    • David Grusch, a former member of the US Office of Naval Intelligence's Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) Task Force, has alleged that the US has evidence of "intact and partially intact craft of non-human origin," according to a report published Monday by The Debrief.

    • Grusch alleges that the US has been recovering "exotic" technology for decades and that "material science testing," "vehicle morphologies," and "unique atomic arrangements and radiological signatures" have shown some recovered materials to be the product of "non-human intelligence."


    The Spin

    Establishment-critical narrative

    While there's yet to be concrete evidence of extraterrestrial life, this report certainly raises questions. Grusch's integrity is above reproach, and corroborating evidence strongly points to the existence of UAP material of non-human origin. While these claims may not yet be verified, what is certain is that the government is far from transparent, begging the question, are we truly alone in the universe?

    Pro-establishment narrative

    Despite decades of public fascination and government attention, there's still no evidence to suggest the possibility of human-extraterrestrial contact. The media has been running away with claims of UFO "proof" based on sketchy reports and leaps of logic, and all reporting that claims aliens are responsible for UAPs leaves the realm of rationality and enters the domain of unverifiable, conspiratorial thinking.

    Nerd narrative

    There's a 20% chance conclusive evidence for extraterrestrial life will be discovered in our Solar System by 2050, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
