This is UFO sidings Today. A new trailer arrived this

00:00:03.839 --> 00:00:10.119
week that says something quiet and important. Aliens have gone mainstream.

00:00:10.560 --> 00:00:14.679
Variety released the first look at Not Alone, a science

00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:19.719
fiction film that pairs Timothey Chalomet and Selena Gomez opposite

5
00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:26.160
and otherworldly presents. The images are cinematic intimate rather than spectacle,

6
00:00:26.719 --> 00:00:31.679
and the casting matters. When major stars take this material seriously,

7
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:37.920
public expectations shift. Films like this shape how witnesses, lawmakers,

8
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:42.399
and the press imagine contact, and they arrive at a

9
00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:45.679
moment when Congress and the public are still arguing over

10
00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:49.679
what the government knows and should disclose. The White House

11
00:00:49.679 --> 00:00:52.159
has named a Harvard professor to lead a new advisory

12
00:00:52.159 --> 00:00:58.079
Council on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena. PBS reports the appointees' theories

13
00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:02.000
are described as polarizing, and the selection has already provoked

14
00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:07.359
debate about credibility and bias. Whoever chairs the council will

15
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:12.640
influence policy, research, priorities, and the language officials use when

16
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:17.640
they brief Congress and the public. Online, the conversation is

17
00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:22.480
straddling history and the new One user flagged a rare

18
00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:27.359
nineteen seventy eight interview with Don Elkins and Carla Ruckert.

19
00:01:27.879 --> 00:01:31.560
Early researchers tied to the law of one material, calling

20
00:01:31.599 --> 00:01:36.200
it essential viewing. Another posted a fresh sighting from Manila Bay,

21
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:40.760
a white pill shaped object that appeared and vanished within

22
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:43.840
seconds around eleven thirty in the morning on July first.

23
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:51.400
Official investigators repeatedly urge rigor analysts want censor corroboration, radar tracks,

24
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:56.560
maintenance logs, and chain of custody. Many incidents are eventually

25
00:01:56.599 --> 00:02:02.280
attributed to aircraft, satellites, drones, atmospheric optics, or human error,

26
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:07.319
but gaps in data leave questions open. We'll keep watching
