Several lawmakers, including Senator Marco Rubio, are frustrated that the military and intelligence agencies are not providing them with information about unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) that have been detected in restricted airspace. They want to know if these objects pose a national security threat. While most lawmakers do not believe the objects are of extraterrestrial origin, some admit the possibility cannot be discounted given the vastness of the universe. The government is now being pressured to collect and disclose records related to UAPs to provide more transparency. However, many details about these phenomena and what the government knows remain classified.
