The report seeks to quash claims that the US government is in possession of reverse-engineered alien technology.
The idea that the US has been working on top secret black projects based on technologies obtained by reverse-engineering crashed UFOs has been around for decades, yet it wasn't until relatively recently that the claims of whistleblowers such as David Grusch have leant particular credence to the notion.
Speaking before Congress last year, he described a "multi-decade UAP crash retrieval and reverse-engineering program" and claimed that the US had been aware of "non-human" activity for years.
Now, though, the Pentagon has released a new report that essentially moves to debunk all notion of the US government withholding information on UFOs and extraterrestrial visitors.
"A consistent theme in popular culture involves a particularly persistent narrative that the [US government]... recovered several off-world spacecraft and extraterrestrial biological remains, that it operates a program or programs to reverse-engineer the recovered technology, and that it has conspired since the 1940s to keep this effort hidden from the United States congress and the American public," the report, released by the defense department, reads.
"The proliferation of television programs, books, movies and the vast amount of internet and social media content ... most likely has influenced the public conversation on this topic, and reinforced these beliefs within some sections of the population."
The report goes on to say that the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) was granted full access to and has reviewed all official files concerning the topic dating back as far as 1945.
The department found "no evidence that any US government investigation, academic-sponsored research, or official review panel has confirmed that any sighting of a UAP [unexplained anomalous phenomenon] represented extraterrestrial technology."
It also insisted that there is "no empirical evidence for claims that the [US government] and private companies have been reverse-engineering extraterrestrial technology."
