A former top Pentagon spy claims that the US has recovered ‘aliens.’
Former US counterintelligence official and onetime Pentagon UFO investigator Luis Elizondo told reporters that he can confirm one of two ‘vehicles of unknown origin’ were recovered from the now legendary Roswell UFO crash of 1947.
More shocking still, Elizondo said, ‘We, as a nation have, been interested in not only the vehicles themselves but the occupants,’ which he called ‘biological specimens.’
Elizondo helped release three of the most famous UFO videos in history after leaving his role in the US Department of Defense in late 2017. His new explosive allegations come amid the ex-spy’s press tour for his new memoir. They’ll be broadcast in NewsNation’s Special Report: Confessions of a UFO Hunter at 9PM ET on Friday August 23.
‘We’re not alone,’ former Pentagon official Luis Elizondo (pictured) told Australian investigative journalist Ross Coulthart in an advanced clip of TC channel NewsNation’s upcoming special. ‘It is a simple fact,’ he added. ‘The US government has been aware of that fact for decades’

The book contains, among its many incredible revelations, details on a 2016 plan hatched by Elizondo and his military colleagues to catch a UFO in the ocean.
‘The United States has been involved in the recovery of objects,’ Elizondo told cable network NewsNation in the new interview, ‘vehicles of unknown origin that are neither from our country or any other foreign country that we’re aware of.’
‘We’re not alone,’ the former Pentagon official told Australian investigative journalist Ross Coulthart in an advanced clip of the channel’s upcoming special report.
‘We are not alone in this universe and it is a simple fact,’ Elizondo continued. ‘The US government has been aware of that fact for decades.’
Elizondo first rose to national prominence in late 2017 in the pages of the New York Times — where he blew the whistle on the US military and intelligence community’s pervasive mismanagement and excessive secrecy on the topic of UFOs.
His public resignation and opaque role within the Pentagon’s UFO-hunting portfolio, known to its Senate backers as the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), brought fame and a lead role in a History channel docu-series.
In April 2020, the Pentagon officially released three videos that Elizondo had helped leak in 2017, each taken by US Navy fighter pilots who had reportedly witnessed ‘unexplained aerial phenomena’ (UAP) as UFOs are now more technically known.
The videos depict, as Elizondo told CNN, ‘things that don’t have any obvious flight sufaces, any obvious forms of propulsion […] maneuvering in ways that include extreme maneuverability beyond, I would submit, the healthy G-forces of a human or anything biological.’
Despite corroboration from his peers and the late Senate Majority leader who helped create AATIP, Nevada Democrat Harry Reid, the Department of Defense has maintained that Elizondo’s military role had no official UFO-hunting duties.
Pentagon officials denied the existence of any ‘credible evidence of extraterrestrial activity,’ in a statement responding to NewsNation’s forthcoming interview.
‘As we have stated previously, Luis Elizondo had no assigned responsibilities for the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) while assigned to the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security,’ DoD spokesperson Sue Gough told NewsNation.
Critics of Gough have pointed to a 2003 research paper on psychological warfare that she wrote for the US Army War College, implying the Pentagon spokesperson might be part of a coordinated campaign to undermine Elizondo’s credibility.
And, in May 2021, Elizondo filed a 64-page complaint to the DoD’s Office of the Inspector General accusing high-ranking military officials of attempting to silence him by threatening his security clearances and obfuscating of his work with AATIP.
DailyMail.com obtained an advance copy of Elizondo’s book, Imminent, in which he shockingly and unequivocally stated that a ‘Legacy Program’ is ‘in possession of advanced technology made off-world by nonhuman intelligence’
Elizondo said he endured ‘malicious activities, coordinated disinformation, professional misconduct, whistleblower reprisal and explicit threats perpetrated by certain senior-level Pentagon officials.’
These actions, he and his attorneys said, suggested ‘a coordinated effort to obfuscate the truth from the American people, while impugning my reputation as a former intelligence officer at the Pentagon.’
His new memoir, Imminent, sees the former Pentagon official opening up about much more incredible personal accounts — including the story of his own family’s disturbing experience with ‘green orbs’ floating through their house.
In the book, Elizondo also details he and another AATIP member’s plan to catch UFOs on the high seas.
He told DailyMail.com that their investigations pointed to these craft having an apparent interest in military operations, nuclear power, and were often seen around bodies of water.
So they coordinated with the Navy and other branches to create ‘Project Interloper’: an attempt to lure the mysterious craft and record them with high-tech equipment.
Above, veteran Australian TV news broadcaster and investigative reporter Ross Coulthart – who conducted the first televised interview with government UFO whistleblower David Grusch last year – conducted the new interview with Elizondo, which airs in full on Friday
‘You take a nuclear carrier strike group, a nuclear powered aircraft carrier, you have a nuclear powered submarine and other nuclear equities in the area, and you put it on the water,’ he told DailyMail.com.
The idea was to gather warships in the ocean, focusing their radar, sonar, and cameras where they believed the UFOs would appear.
‘There was an official plan that had support. It got briefed all the way to the Joint Staff,’ Elizondo said. ‘We had a lot of interest from the intelligence community. A lot of agencies were part of this. They were ready to put their effort and assets into it. And at the last minute it got denied.’
‘That, for me, was one of the last straws,’ he told DailyMail.com this past Saturday.
NewsNation’s ‘Confessions of a UFO Hunter’ TV special airs this Friday at 9pm Eastern / 8pm Central.
