Luis “Lue” Elizondo led the Pentagon’s Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) before resigning to advocate for UAP disclosure. He claims the government has recovered exotic materials, biological remains, and crafts unknown to current technology. In 2025, he presented a controversial image of a 1,000-foot-wide silver disc UFO taken by a commercial pilot at 21,000 ft, reigniting debate over official transparency. Critics, including debunkers, argue it likely depicts irrigation circles. Elizondo remains vocal in media and at events, pressing for full public disclosure and congressional action.Wikipedia+2ABC7 Los Angeles+2ABC7 San Francisco+2CBS NewsThe Washington Post+3Wikipedia+3New York Post+3
