The US government taskforce has been investigating sightings between US military personnel and unidentified flying objects.
At the time, Mr Cahill said, he assumed the military's nonchalant reaction to the sightings was evidence the object was part of a secret US programme.The 'tic-tac' showed no outward signs of conventional propulsion"This was not just another flock of birds or a balloon or a or swamp gases, we knew that this was a craft that was outstripping our arsenal, and that was in 2004."But I think that there's even more out there that we need to we need to see and understand.
"I hazard to say that if we don't pry this out into the daylight right now I fear that it'll go right back into the black and it'll be another 70 years before we actually find out what this is."But some of those who have been in space are doubtful the sightings are of alien spacecraft. Leroy Chiao, a former commander aboard the International Space Station, said:"Although I think there is life elsewhere in the universe, the distances are so vast that I don't think we'll ever find each other."The Pentagon report is the culmination of a push by politicians, including former US Senate majority leader Harry Reid, for greater openness.
He told Sky News:"This goes back 70 years and we know initially the government did everything it could to cover it up. I think the new technology we have has made it more difficult for the government to deny what is going on. "The government has got to be part of it and no longer be part of a cover-up, they've got to be transparent in everything they do."The budget Mr Reid helped secure created the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Programme.Subscribe to the Daily podcast on
