The high-profile UAP cases of the past year or so have caused many to wonder what the official government response to credible accounts of alien contact should entail. One congressman has reportedly voiced his concern about a particular kind of contact presumably unwanted on both sides—in the form of mid-air collision between UAP and our own aircraft. The possibility is real and even increasingly likely, said US House Representative Tim Burchett recently, and government has to do something about it. That starts with government being more transparent about what it knows about dozens of credible instances of UAP on Earth, which, Burchett has argued, is much more than it admits to. His recommendations include congressional hearings that allow the public access to eyewitness accounts of close encounters, as well as the release of all of the existing reports the government has of alien activity.
