Transparency, Secrecy, and Cloaking Tech: The AATIP Budget and UFO Research

To the point

There was a $22 million, five‑year program (2008–2010) about UFOs, but the key point is secrecy: outsourcing with strict non‑disclosure agreements blocked in‑house work, invisibility cloaks linked to UFOs could offer military advantages, and some accounts—like the Twining Memo and leaks—claim objects are real and defy physics with observations traced to Air Force Captain Edward J. Ruppelt, though conclusions’re uncertain, suggesting a broader cover‑up and a Deep State‑like level of secrecy.
