But we\u2019re not to that point because we just don\u2019t know what this phenomenon is. I think that with all of those sightings that you referenced, there\u2019s something there. This is not an optical illusion or a radar blip that\u2019s a mistake. So we need to find out. When you talk to those Navy pilots, they\u2019re convinced because they saw it and they tracked it,\u201d Nelson said, referring to a host of Navy pilot encounters with technology that acted strangely or moved too quickly.<\/p>\n<p>That does indicate that NASA has, at least, a step-by-step idea of how they might approach an alien spacecraft if a pilot ever encountered one.<\/p>\n<p>Hoover then asked if, given the Pentagon\u2019s UAP Task Force\u2019s report, released earlier this summer, it might be time for the federal government to consider a more concrete plan for confrontation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGiven what we know about the UAPs, when is the right time, Senator, for us to come up with a plan to handle the intelligent life that we\u2019re looking for?\u201d Hoover asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, we better identify it first and once we identify it, then we\u2019ll know what to do,\u201d Nelson said. \u201cWe don\u2019t have any idea if suddenly an alien is going to appear. This is still great speculation, but we\u2019re in the search for life out there and this phenomenon that these Navy pilots have seen, let\u2019s find out about it. What is it? And then we can deal with it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hoover then suggested Nelson was being cagey, noting that the U.S. government has \u201ccontingency plans\u201d for a number of scenarios, and it is hard to believe, with NASA\u2019s longtime focus on seeking out alien life, that it would have never made a plan in case alien life encountered the U.S. government first.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/business\/aerospace-defense\/us-report-pentagon-documented-ufos-leaves-sightings-unexplained-2021-06-25\/\">According to Reuters<\/a>, the UAP Task Force report seemed to downplay the possibility that military pilots encountered alien spacecraft; instead, it implied that the pilots either were unaware of more sophisticated technology being tested by the military itself or that the pilots had encountered sophisticated foreign technology. Reuters did note, however, that the UAP Task Force would not close the door on the possibility of extraterrestrial life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA U.S. government report on UFOs\u2026said defense and intelligence analysts lack sufficient data to determine the nature of mysterious flying objects observed by American military pilots including whether they are advanced earthly technologies, atmospherics or of an extraterrestrial origin,\u201d the outlet reported in July.<\/p>\n<p>An intelligence spending bill, passed last month, authorized the Department of Defense to reopen the Pentagon UAP Task Force office, but there is controversy over which branch should handle such investigations. The U.S. Space Force, a new branch that shares much of its resources with the U.S. Air Force, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2021\/08\/09\/space-force-ufo-military-mission-502843\">said, in August, it would prefer not to be in charge<\/a> of UAP probes.<\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
