the first open congressional hearing on unidentified aerial vehicles in
more than half a century, with testimony from two top defense
intelligence officials.
The hearing comes after the release
last June of a report requested by Congress on “unidentified aerial
phenomena.” The nine-page “Preliminary Assessment” from the Office of
the Director of National Intelligence focused on 144 incidents dating
back to 2004 and was able to explain only one.
