You treat UFOs like a strategic question: not a hobby, but an axis that shifts how you see the universe. This week leans into that—declassified files, whistleblower pressure, and even Spielberg asking the hard spiritual questions so you don't have to.
Between 1947 and 1969, the U.S. Air Force's Project Blue Book cataloged 12,618 reported UFO sightings — of those, 701 remained officially unexplained. The study gave skeptics and believers a shared dataset and helped turn sightings into something researchers could analyze rather than just gossip about.
