US Congress Seemingly Implies UFOs Are Not All ‘Manmade’

In a rather surprising admission, the US Congress may have just revealed that it doesn’t believe all unidentified flying objects (UFOs) spotted in the skies are “manmade” objects. 


While this significant note was buried in an Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023 addendum, it hasn’t gone unnoticed by eagle-eyed investigators. 


Researcher Douglas Johnson first spotted that a draft bill approved by the Senate Select Committee had agreed to rebrand UFOs as “unidentified aerospace-undersea phenomena,” expanding the definition to include both objects seen in space as well as underwater. 


This ties in with the Pentagon renaming its investigative task force from the Airborne Object Identification and Management Group (AOIMSG) to the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), widening the scope to all “objects of interest.” 


According to The Hill, the new definition highlighted “transmedium” objects, which as per the legislation, refers to sightings that “transition between space and the atmosphere or between the atmosphere and bodies of water.” 


Does this mean UFOs are not only no longer bound to the air, but can now traverse between space, air, and water?

It may seem so, especially with lawmakers noting that “transmedium threats to the United States national security are expanding exponentially,” though it’s unclear what that may entail. 


Marik Von Rennekampff, an opinion contributor to the publication, further shared that Congress made sure to point out that “manmade” objects should not be considered as UFOs, and will be looked into by a separate branch of government. 


“Make no mistake: One branch of the American government implying that UFOs have non-human origins is an explosive development,” Rennekampff wrote.


It’s not difficult to see why many are surprised that the government is essentially admitting in official documents that it believes UFOs have non-human origins, especially when the state had previously launched a campaign to debunk such myths during the Cold War. 


What will the AARO’s investigations eventually reveal about these non-human UFO sightings? We sure can’t wait to find out.
