Here’s what the Pentagon’s former UFO hunter learned on the job
Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, a physicist and career intelligence officer, was picked in 2022 to lead the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO. The agency was created to centralize investigations into unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), the official government term for UFOs.
In a letter published on Scientific American’s website, Kirkpatrick said his team never found evidence of aliens, but he did encounter “the erosion of critical thinking.”

“The U.S. has been hiding and attempting to reverse engineer as many as 12 UAP/UFOs from as early as the 1960s and perhaps earlier. This great cover-up and conspiracy failed to produce any salient results, and consequently the effort was abandoned to some private sector defense contractors to continue the work. Sometime later, the story continues, those private sector contractors wanted to bring the whole program back under U.S. government (USG) auspices. Apparently, the CIA stopped this supposed transfer back to the USG.”
Part of what the U.S. has recovered, Grusch testified, were non-human “biologics,” which he said he had not seen but had learned about from “people with direct knowledge of the program.”
“Some members of Congress prefer to opine about aliens to the press rather than get an evidence-based briefing on the matter,” Kirkpatrick wrote in Scientific American. “Members have a responsibility to exhibit critical thinking skills instead of seeking the spotlight.”
“Science cannot be left on the side of the road in the mad dash to uncover some great conspiracy,” Kirkpatrick wrote. “Carl Sagan would expect no less, and neither should the American people.”
