Vallée: Unveiling UFOs May Spark Complex Religious and Security Quandaries

LAS VEGAS ( KLAS ) — A prominent UFO researcher cautions that revealing The reality, tied to verified human casualties and issues of national security, necessitates a well-thought-out plan to prevent disorder.

Jacques Vallée has played a pivotal role in UFO studies and discussions for more than sixty years, frequently clashing with mainstream UFO beliefs. He was one of the early proponents suggesting that the unidentified flying objects observed throughout history might originate from different dimensions rather than distant galaxies.

Valley has encountered numerous calls for ending official secrecy multiple times and, concurrently, has been involved in clandestine initiatives himself, including a A UFO investigation initiated by the Defense Intelligence Agency has been launched. In 2008, (DIA) was concealed within an aerospace firm based in Las Vegas.

A key aspect of the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program (AAWSAP) was indeed alarming—the actual health impacts on people exposed to unidentified flying objects (UFOs). Numerous severe injuries have been recorded. Investigators from AAWSAP went as far as traveling to Brazil to gather governmental records concerning hundreds of Brazilian citizens who received treatment following encounters with UFOs. Although Vallée refrains from commenting on particular AAWSAP documents, save for those instances he contributed to the database, he stated that these incidents involving UFO-linked injuries were intentional rather than accidental.

“I can tell you that in my files… some of which I contributed to the database of, there are at least half a dozen well-documented cases where the injuries that resulted in death were deliberate,” Vallée said.

According to individuals who have reviewed the complete AAWSAP documents, instances where UFOs intentionally inflict bodily injury upon people are uncommon, though such occurrences happen. Dr. Colm Kelleher, an administrator with AAWSAP, has straightforwardly stated that UFO encounters can be detrimental to human well-being.

Could that be a reason to keep secrets?

In his most recent book, “Forbidden Science 6: Scattered Castles,” Vallée shares private exchanges with colleagues from the AAWSAP program, including Robert Bigelow, a Las Vegas billionaire. Additionally, there are conversations between and a close-knit group of scientists known as the Lonestars. The scientists, some of them former CIA contractors, accept that the U.S. government has recovered crashed vehicles of unknown origin, and that defense contractors have worked for decades to reverse engineer the technology at secretive facilities in the desert and elsewhere. They say adversary nations have done likewise, and that the race to duplicate the technology means national security is at stake.

Vallée favors transparency but worries that an official declaration could prove chaotic.

“If we want to disclose… something as simple as saying, ‘Yes, we acknowledge the phenomenon and it seems to be from space,’ we would have to… answer a hundred other questions, that this is not the end of the story,” Vallée noted. “There are religious questions… there is a religious side to all this.”

While Vallée is encouraged by the renewed interest in UFOs within Congress, mainstream media, and academia, he thinks someone needs to craft a well-planned strategy for how to unleash what would likely be the biggest news story in history.

“I think… that we should disclose with a structure,” Vallée said, adding that, “The structure hasn’t been invented yet.”
