Biden Administration Forms Interagency Group to Address Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Over North America

The Biden administration has announced the formation of an interagency group to address the recent uptick of “unidentified aerial phenomena” over North America in the past nine days. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said the president, through his national security adviser, has directed an interagency team to study the broader policy implications for detection, analysis, and disposition of these objects that pose either safety or security risks.

Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre spoke from the White House podium to assure the public that there is no indication of aliens or extraterrestrial activity with these recent takedowns. She was referring to authorities shooting down four high-altitude objects, including a suspected Chinese spy balloon, over North American airspace this month.

The White House is attempting to quell speculation that the aerial objects found flying over U.S. airspace may have ties to extraterrestrial life. Jean-Pierre said it is important for people to hear straight from the Biden administration that alien involvement with these incidents is not a working theory.

The interagency group will be tasked with studying the policy implications of these unidentified aerial objects and determining the best course of action for addressing them. The group is expected to provide a report to the president in the coming weeks. It is unclear at this time what the group’s findings will be or how the administration will respond.
