Government Acknowledges Program Meant To Reverse Engineer UFOs

The government has officially acknowledged attempts might have been made to develop a UFO retrieval program.

As OutKick readers know, I am obsessed with UFO theories and discussions, and I'm certainly not the only one. It's a scorching hot topic these days. There seems to be new information regularly coming out. Below are just a few recent stories:

Declassified documents shine light on possible UFO program.

Now, the government has declassified documents admitting that a UFO program known as Kona Blue was at least briefly developed, according to NewsNation.

NewsNation reported the following details on the program:

Kona Blue was a plan for the government to reverse engineer alien technology from a recovered UFO. It was a special access, or top secret, program created with the goal of acquiring, identifying and reverse engineering what it calls AAVs, or advanced aerospace vehicles. Those now fall under the category of what the military calls UAPs and most people refer to as "UFOs."

The program also was going to find out whether China or Russia had access to any advanced aerospace vehicles, according to the same report.

Eventually, the government made the decision to scrap the program for one simple reason.

No alien technology was ever found to reverse engineer, according to NewsNation. You can watch an in-depth report from NewsNation below, and hit me with your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

At the very least, it's interesting that the government had at least given serious thought to a UFO program to reverse engineer anything that might be found. Now, the government claims nothing was found, which is why the program was scrapped.

Fair enough, but the fact it was even considered is pretty mind-boggling. It's a sign that at least some people took the topic rather seriously.

Now, what we know for sure is that there are plenty of wild videos out there that nobody can really seem to explain. And they're not videos released by crazy people. Our own military has released videos that seem to defy the laws of physics.

None are more famous than the infamous "tic tac" video.

What is the truth? Let me know your theories at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
