The truth is out there

The Independent reports that the Ministry of Defence closed its UFO desk and hotline in 2009 because it served “no defence purpose” and was taking staff away from “more valuable defence-related activities”.

The decision was taken despite the fact that reported sightings trebled in that year. However, it was decided that, in more than 50 years, none had indicated the existence of “any military threat to the UK”.

The paper says that the latest release of declassified MoD UFO files amount to 25 files, 4,400 pages and cover the work carried out in the final two years of the MoD’s UFO desk, from 2007 until 2009. They include accounts of alleged abductions and contact with aliens and UFO sightings near landmarks.
