For over two hours, Congress questioned three people about their knowledge of UAP*s. The people questioned were a former US intelligence official named David Grusch, a former Navy commander named David Fravor, and a former Navy pilot named Ryan Graves.

*UAP = Unidentified Aerial Phenomena...it's what the government calls UFOs.

"As I've stated publicly already in my News Nation interview, biologics came with some of these recoveries." When pressed on whether they were human or non-human biologics, he said, "Non-human, and that was the assessment of people with direct knowledge on the program I talked to that are still currently on the program."

3. Furthermore, Grusch also says that he “absolutely” believes the US government is in possession of UAPs after he personally interviewed 40 witnesses over four years.

5.Navy pilot Ryan Graves said he would see objects completely stationary in hurricane-force winds. These objects would then accelerate to supersonic speeds.

He told Congress, "We would see these objects being at 0.0 mach that's zero airspeed...these objects were staying completely stationary in category 4 hurricane winds. These same objects would then accelerate to supersonic speeds 1.1, 1.2 mach and they would do so in very erratic and quick behaviors that I don't have an explanation for."

6. And lastly, Graves said he believes only 5% of UAP sightings are reported by US pilots, suggesting 95% of them go unreported.
