I understand that there is a lot of information out there that people won’t be able to understand or handle so you decide to keep it classified, but we need to talk. There’s a misconception about UFOs that needs to be diminished. You are the ones that started this stigma of making UFOs a laughing matter, and it's lingering which makes no sense. The universe is never ending, there are infinite galaxies out there. It is believed the universe is 13.7 billion years old. You can’t possibly think we are the only civilization present. In the past year, you have released videos of these alleged UFOs, which is a massive step in the right direction. This is very important given the misleading projects you have set up; how will we know the truth?

Project Blue book was your way of responding to multiple sightings of UFOs. A New York Times article was published addressing project blue book and they said, “That plan involved using psychologists, advertising experts, amateur astronomers and even Disney cartoons to create propaganda to reduce public interest.”  This project took place from 1947 to 1969. The project had a total of 12,618 UFO reports. Out of those 12,618 reports only 701 of them were concluded as unexplained. We are now in the year 2022 and nothing has seemed to change on this topic. You are trying to protect the people, but shouldn’t we be more involved? What if this is a threat to national security? It wasn’t until December 16, 2017, you announced project AATIP, advanced aerospace threat identification program. This project has been classified and is claimed to be terminated.  This project was only funded 22 million dollars versus the U.S. military's whopping 801 billion dollars, yes, billions with a b. It seems you are not taking this as seriously as you should. Why keep these projects in the dark? It seems odd you are keeping this from us, it seems you are in over your head. Maybe you guys have found something you don’t like and you are still trying to figure out answers to this phenomenon.

Supposedly you are reverse engineering some of these crafts; Bob Lazar’s story sounds a bit too specific to be false, and why would he live by this lie all his life? Bob Lazar was a physicist who worked with advanced propulsion devices. He even attached a jet engine to his car back in 1982. No ordinary person can do this, no Bob was a genius. His credibility is rational given his abilities with propulsion systems. Bob Lazar claims he was brought out to a secret government location in Nevada called S4 near Area 51; he was trying to understand how these crafts worked and even how to produce them ourselves. This was dating all the way back to the late 1980s, and once he came forward, he claims you guys tried to remove all his information from even existing after coming forward with his story. His records from working at Los Alamos National Laboratory had vanished.  Sounds like someone got a bit scared that people would catch on. I don’t blame you for trying to control the situation but your way of handling it is horrendous. I think a bit more light needs to be shed on this topic.

In late April of 2020, three Navy videos of confirmed UFOs were released to the public. This is a huge step in the right direction but it only scratches the surface of this topic. The quality of the videos is not great, which makes me think, the year is 2022; you would think by now the technology we have would be able to capture even clearer videos or images. Yet the only videos the public gets are these black and white grainy videos. It’s almost like there is a reason you publicized these videos instead of other Navy videos. There has to be better quality of these crafts you are not sharing with the public, understandable, but someday it will come out, why not now? 

This topic deserves more recognition than it receives, and you are the ones at fault. What does one need to do to gain the knowledge you guys have, to work for the government? Who says all of the public won’t be able to handle this information, what about the people that can and are genuinely curious?
