The presence of UFOs or Unidentified Flying Objects has continuously baffled many, from enthusiasts to government agencies. Recently, the United States Navy has warned that having to release more footage of these mysterious aerial vehicles could pose a threat to national security.

Express reports that many sightings of anonymous air crafts have been inquired about to the government. These sightings of unidentified flying objects have forced officials to acknowledge them, but the footage taken of these sightings was never released. Due to the increasing inquiries and footage that are being leaked to the public, the authorities said that no more footage nor cases of these sightings should be made public as it could endanger the country’s national security.

Through a Freedom of Information Act Request, the officials said they found slides that were classified as Top Secret. After reviewing the slides, they found that according to the Original Classification Authority or OCA, any release of the materials or footage would cause damage to the national security of the United States. However, this statement may only intrigue those who are really curious about what the government knows about these mysterious aerial vehicles.

In recent years, there have been a few sightings that were made public as those who have spotted them came forward to reveal the details. The first of which was in 2004 and the second encounter which became highly talked about was in 2017 when leaked US Navy radar footage showed an anonymous aircraft that was glowing and flying erratically.

Meanwhile, aside from UFOs, many have wondered about the possibility of life existing on other planets such as Mars. The Red Planet has often been the destination for space agencies all over the world as of late, and a recent report reveals that alien enthusiasts have spotted what appears to be three human-like statues on the dunes of the planet. Scott Waring, a known UFO enthusiast, claims that this is conclusive evidence that there is life on Mars.

Waring analyzed the images released by NASA’s Curiosity Rover, and he calls the statues the “Mona Lisa” of the Red Planet. He went on to explain that one of the statues seemingly is of a woman wearing a green robe, with long hair down to the shoulders. Another statue, Waring claims, is of a bald man wearing a green outfit as well. While he claims that this is proof of life on another planet, Waring believes that the agency is intentionally misleading the public.
