Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena: Implications on National Security, Public Safety, and Government Transparency

Witness David Grusch, a former intelligence official, testified under oath that he had been informed by multiple credible individuals with direct knowledge of a multi-decade UAP crash-retrieval and reverse-engineering program to which he was denied access. He stated that 'biologics' came with some of these recoveries and that the assessment of those with direct knowledge was that they were 'non-human.' Grusch clarified he had not personally seen the craft or biologics but was relaying information from interviews, documents, and evidence provided to him, some of which he offered to share in a classified setting. Other witnesses focused on observed UAP performance and the need for improved reporting. The hearing record includes witness statements and a transcript; it does not independently verify the claims but places them in the official congressional record. The Department of Defense has separately stated it has found no verifiable evidence supporting such programs.
