Six things we learned from UFO congress hearing – including hundreds of sightings and unexplainable spherical object
THE United States Congress has just held a public discussion about UFOs.
Here's some of the top revelations we learned about UFOs and UAPs from the talk.
400 sightings
A Navy intelligence official revealed that there's now been over 400 sightings of UAPs, which are unidentified aerial phenomenon.
Some experts prefer the phrase UAP because they think UFO comes with a stigma and is taken less seriously.
There's video footage

UFO videos were played to Congressmen as part of the hearing today.
One showed a quick moving spherical object and one showed what looked like a perfect triangle shape glowing green in the sky.
Experts don't have an explanation for these objects or the way that they move.
11 'near misses'
The congress hearing also revealed that there's been some near misses with the UAPs.
Some of the sightings were spotted by the airforce and 11 have been described as near misses.
No attempt to communicate
The panel of experts was asked whether there has been any attempt to communicate with the strange aerial objects.
It was revealed that there had not been any signals sent out or any other attempt to communicate with the UAPs.
The way they move makes no sense
It was revealed that the UAPs were capable of moving very quickly “without discernible means of propulsion”.
Experts are not aware of human made objects that can move in the same way.

Throughout the UFO congress hearing, certain questions were met with requests that the information required is revealed in a non public session.
After the session the public just watched online, there's a closed session in which the experts will discuss the UAPs further.
