Pentagon Unveils Document detailing Content from a Suspected Extraterrestrial Aircraft
Frisky Finē Sophistication: The DoD's UFO sleuths, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), spilled the beans on that rumored extraterrestrial gizmo. Not so extraterrestrial, but ain't no little green men neither.
Turns out, that UFO relic the AARO hauled was dispatched to Oak Ridge National Lab in '22. Oak Ridge cracked it open for two years and dropped their findings on AARO in April. Drum roll, please! - it's probably got a folksy Earthly origin. They reckon it's just one of many coat-tails from the 20th century experiments aimed at cooking up lighter, stronger aircraft.
"This jimmy-rigged trinket's been peddled as a chunk of a crashed alien craft since 1947, boasting weird properties like a terahertz waveguide for anti-gravity antics," the AARO quipped in their press release. "But with every shred of proof considered, we're positively certain that this doodad is most likely a test item, manufacturing swag, or aerodynamic lab rat."
According to Oak Ridge's report, this part and parcel of a fabled UFO is just your garden-variety magnesium compound.
"Despite the patchy history and ambiguous intentions behind this bauble, a comprehensive examination of its molecular and physical makeup shows no traces of extraterrestrial origins nor evidence of a pure, single-crystalline bismuth layer that could've served as a terahertz waveguide," Oak Ridge declared in their report.
Originally, this suspect artifact found its way to the To The Stars Academy, a research troupe fronted by Blink-182's frontman and ufologist extraordinaire, Tom DeLonge. The Academy declared in their press release that "the material displays clear layers of Magnesium-Zinc and Bismuth at precise thicknesses mere microns thick" and "'tis all-new in the annals of materials science."
Oak Ridge agreed to scrutinize the material after To The Stars granted permission.
"While the lengthy documentation chain for this trinket is murky, public interest and media bombardment necessitated a transparent probe that abided by the scientific code of ethics," the report insists. "The trinket's physical properties are claimed to lend it the ability to reduce mass and exhibit gravitational repulsion, possible due to its Bismuth and Magnesium layers acting as a terahertz waveguide."
But the AARO and Oak Ridge insist this oozy material is more likely a 20th-century test of new aerospace alloys. "Research into Magnesium alloys for aircraft, engines, weaponry, and delivery systems lit up like a Christmas tree from 1915, peaking during World War II," the organizations stated.
"Many experimental Magnesium alloys failed under mysterious circumstances back in the day, reasons unknown at the time," the AARO pronounced in their press release. "Records of faulty Magnesium alloy designs from the past are scarce. Neither AARO nor Oak Ridge could verify the trinket's origins."
Although Oak Ridge's report and the press release omit any mention of Roswell, New Mexico, pinning the sample's recovery date in '47 suggests it's probably got ties to the town's infamous UFO story.
The Roswell saga is hallowed ground for UFO aficionados and conspiracy theorists. The short and skinny is that something allegedly crashed in the deserts near Roswell, New Mexico, and the Air Force claimed it was merely a weather balloon. Some, however, swear up and down it was an alien spacecraft.
The Roswell caper kick-started a wave of distress and intrigue over mysterious lights in the sky. That wave crested again in recent years after a string of dramatic UFO sightings by U.S. Navy pilots and the release of top-secret videos depicting strange aerial shenanigans. Smitten with curiosity, U.S. legislators ordered the Pentagon to decode why so many folks reported witnessing strange aerial lights. In response, the Pentagon formed the AARO in '22 and they've been chasing what they call Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) ever since.
Yet, after numerous reports, they're yet to dig up irrefutable proof of extraterrestrial or interdimensional visits to U.S. soil.
- The AARO's press release mentioned that the UFO relic, now confirmed to have an Earthly origin, was claimed to have a terahertz waveguide for supposed anti-gravity capabilities, like the one found in the infamous Roswell incident.
- Although not mentioned in the report, the recovery date of the suspect artifact in 1947 suggests a possible connection to the Roswell UFO saga, a significant event in the history of UFO conspiracies.
- Oak Ridge's comprehensive examination of the material revealed no traces of extraterrestrial origins or evidence of a pure, single-crystalline bismuth layer, contradicting the initial claims that the material was groundbreaking in the annals of materials science.
- The AARO and Oak Ridge assert that the mysterious material is more likely a 20th-century test of new magnesium-based aerospace alloys, and not a piece of UFO technology, despite the swirling rumors and the intriguing properties initially attributed to it.
