The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) of the United States has a secret unit retrieving several crashed UFOs (unidentified flying objects) worldwide. It has been claimed that at least nine such “non-human craft” have been collected by the agency in top-secret operations that have been hidden from the public until now. According to the Daily Mail, the CIA’s Office of Global Access (OGA) has been involved in this work.
The OGA is reportedly responsible for providing the US military with access to places around the world that are usually off-limits for intelligence agencies due to security reasons. The OGA is supposedly able to detect and decloak these alien crafts before they land, and when they do, the OGA will send special military units to attempt to salvage the wreckage of the non-human craft. The OGA allegedly has a fleet of vehicles that can be used to collect this type of data, including a drone equipped with thermal imaging technology.
While the OGA collects information on extraterrestrial life, the CIA’s Directorate of Operations is responsible for espionage and other covert activities. Clandestine operations include intelligence gathering from foreign countries and companies and the creation of front corporations and other such structures for covert activities. While often secretive, these operations are only a tiny part of the overall budget for the CIA.
There is a lot of interest in the CIA’s past research into the phenomenon of UFOs, and some of that work has been made public by the CIA in recent years. For example, several people were stunned by the videos of three Navy UFOs that had been captured on film during a UFO incident off the coast of California in 2010. In one video, an object appeared to perform a series of physically impossible maneuvers.
The CIA has been reluctant to expand public access to its declassified files despite this interest. This contrasts with other federal agencies, such as the National Archives, which routinely links its entire library of declassified files to the Internet for all to see. Instead, the CIA continues to limit access to its collection of documents through a database known as CREST, which only allows those with a CIA ID to gain instant access. It’s an approach that many open government advocates find frustrating.
