David Grusch’s Startling Statement on Sentient Plasmoid Life

"... it's a continuum from corporeal bipedal type life to what I would consider sentient plasmoid life. But there are several [species] that the US government is aware of."

During the June 9, 2026 UAP/NHI press conference on Capitol Hill, former US Air Force officer and intelligence official David Grusch made a remarkable statement regarding the US government’s secret acknowledgment of the existence of sentient non-human entities. When a reporter asked how many alien types have been identified, Grusch said matter-of-factly: “I don’t have the compendium [that I can present to you today, however,] it's a continuum from corporeal bipedal type life to what I would consider sentient plasmoid life. But there are several [species] that the US government is aware of.” A search for “plasmoid life”, utilizing Google’s Gemini AI, yields the following information:

A plasmoid is a self-contained, glowing magnetic structure of plasma (the fourth state of matter). In both UAP/UFO discussions and science fiction, plasmoids are often speculated to be non-biological, energy-based extraterrestrial lifeforms or atmospheric "critters" that exist independently of carbon and DNA.

UFO, UAP Press Conference 2026 - Nonhuman Biologics, Secret Crash Retrieval Programs and the Decades Long Cover-up

Yesterday’s Capitol Hill UFO / UAP news conference (watch below) should have dominated the national conversation. Instead, it landed in the odd American gap between historic significance and minimal mainstream attention: a startling public moment in which lawmakers and UAP figures made statements with

implications so extraordinary that the event should have been impossible to ignore. The setting was official, the participants were credible, and the claims carried enough weight to make the gathering feel less like another mythicized UFO story than a rupture in the long-running silence around it.

Robert Hastings’ Interview with Journalist Ross Coulthart

UFOs and Nukes Researcher Discusses Key Revelations by US Air Force Veterans Regarding UAP Incursions at ICBM Sites

In October 2024, I was interviewed (watch below) on the News Nation network by Australian journalist Ross Coulthart, who has broken several important UAP-related stories over the past few years, as well as hosting the first televised interview with former US government intelligence analyst and whistleblower David Grusch. During my conversation with Coulthart, I focused on a few of the most important incidents involving UFOs tampering with American nuclear missiles—either disrupting or temporarily activating them—during the Cold War era. Those accounts were offered during interviews I conducted over the years with 169 former or retired US Air Force ICBM launch and targeting officers, missile maintenance technicians, and missile security personnel.

Second Tranche of UAP, UFO Files and Videos Released by Dept. of War

"... the tranche expands the public archive with videos, audio files, PDFs, and historical records that stretch the story of unexplained aerial phenomena deeper into the government’s own memory...."

The second release of UAP records from the so-called War Department lands with less fanfare than the first, but arguably with more substance. Published May 22, 2026 through the PURSUE portal, the tranche expands the public archive with

videos, audio files, PDFs, and historical records that stretch the story of unexplained aerial phenomena deeper into the government’s own memory. If the first release established that the files were real, the second makes clear that the record is broader, messier, and more persistent than many expected.

This time, the emphasis is not on novelty so much as accumulation. CBS News reported that the second contains 51 videos — while Reuters described the material as a fresh set of declassified UFO/UAP records that includes references ranging from green orbs and discs to fireballs and a 116-page historical file tied to Sandia, New Mexico. That mix matters because it shows the government is not simply releasing a few isolated clips for public consumption; it is building a record that blends modern sensor footage with older institutional paperwork.©The UFO Chronicles.

UAP, UFO Files: What the Department of War’s Release Reveals

When a government opens a long-closed file drawer, the public expects either revelation or vindication — rarely both at once. The so-called Department of War’s (legally still the Dept. of Defense) initial tranche of declassified records, published to the Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP

By The UFO Chronicles © All Rights Reserved 5-14-2026

Encounters (PURSUE) portal, offers context, clutter, and a few persistent mysteries that resist tidy explanation. The documents released on May 8, 2026, span decades of memos, eyewitness reports, photos and videos; they are raw, often grainy, and were placed in the public domain as part of what officials called an “unprecedented transparency” effort.

What’s in the files — and what isn’t — matters. First, the DOW's claim that these files have never previously been released is false — a characterization that reflects either ineptitude or sensationalism. For seasoned researchers and or archival documentarians, much of the older files are familiar. Conversely, the vast majority are unredacted, pristine and in color. The significance of this can’t be overstated. (Curiously, the PDF files are password-locked, which is a stumbling block for research.) The initial collection includes items from across federal agencies, including the Department of Defense, FBI, NASA and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, with the stated aim of centralizing decades of previously siloed material for public scrutiny. Many entries take familiar forms: witness statements, radar and maintenance logs that require technical background to parse, and footage whose low resolution complicates interpretation. The Pentagon’s public affairs notes and the DOW press release stress that the tranche is the beginning of a rolling release, not a final accounting.©The UFO Chronicles. All rights reserved.

UFOs and Nukes Book Epilogue

Author Robert Hastings Has Added an Important Update to his Groundbreaking Volume on UAP Activity Involving Nuclear Weapons

The Second Edition of my 500-page book, UFOs and Nukes: Extraordinary Encounters at Nuclear Weapons Sites, was published in early 2017. Some months later, the now-famous article exposing the existence of a highly secret UAP investigations group at the Pentagon—the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program or AATIP—was published by The New York Times. Written by journalists Leslie Kean, Ralph Blumenthal, and Helene Cooper, the exposé revealed that dramatic work had been secretly conducted by the Defense Intelligence Agency, from 2007 to 2012, to examine national security-related UFO activity, including disturbing incidents at nuclear missile facilities, when multiple

Missing & Murdered: The UFO/UAP Ties of Lost Scientists

"At the heart of the current storm is Maj. Gen. William Neil McCasland, the former Commander of the AFRL, who was reported missing in late February 2026. McCasland is not merely a high-ranking officer; he is a figure of immense interest in the UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) circles. His name first surfaced in the public consciousness via the 2016 WikiLeaks release of John Podesta’s emails, where he was identified as a key figure with knowledge of recovered "exotic" materials."

The intersection of high-level scientific research and national security has always been a landscape of shadows, but rarely have those shadows felt so long. In mid-April 2026, the "missing scientists" narrative—a story long relegated to the corners of independent research—officially crossed the threshold into the

White House briefing room. When Fox News correspondent Peter Doocy questioned Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on April 15 about a "pattern of missing and dead scientists," the administration’s response was telling. Leavitt admitted the trend was "worth looking into," signaling that the "List of 10" has moved from digital speculation to a matter of potential federal inquiry.

The list identifies approximately ten high-level researchers [update: now eleven]—experts in plasma physics, aerospace engineering, and nuclear energy—who have either vanished or died under anomalous circumstances since 2023. While each case is a distinct tragedy, their collective professional proximity to the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), and Los Alamos National Laboratory has created a statistical anomaly that is difficult to ignore. ©The UFO Chronicles.

UFO Whistleblower, Lue Elizondo Survives Deadly Motorcycle Crash

Luis Elizondo (Lue Elizondo), the prominent U.S. government whistleblower on UAP/UFO topics and former head of the Pentagon's Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), was involved in a serious motorcycle accident on the evening of St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 2026.

He has publicly detailed the incident, his life-threatening injuries, and ongoing recovery through his own social media posts, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), and a YouTube "recovery diary" series. The event was a single-vehicle motorcycle crash caused by swerving to avoid wildlife.

Timeline of the Incident and Immediate Aftermath

• Date and Time: Evening of March 17, 2026 (St. Patrick's Day). Elizondo was riding home from his business at night.

• Location: Approximately one mile from his home, near his residence in Wyoming.

• Cause: While riding, Elizondo encountered a doe (mother deer) and her fawn standing in the middle of the road. He made a split-second decision to swerve and avoid hitting them rather than plowing into the animals. He lost control of the motorcycle and crashed—he was not wearing a helmet. © The UFO Chronicles. All rights reserved.

• Discovery: Elizondo drifted in and out of consciousness by the side of the road. His wife, Jennifer Elizondo, located him using the iPhone "Find My" app when he failed to arrive home. He initially told her he did not want or need to go to the hospital, but she wisely insisted on taking him to the ER.

Intervention and Disclosure - Are UAPs Nuclear Sentinels? (Pt 4)

Numerous encroachments into nuclear bases and facilities have extended beyond American airspace. In 1980, in England's most publicized UFO case, an unexplained object appeared over joint U.S./ Royal Air Force bases near Rendlesham Forest. Military witnesses described a round, silent, high-speed craft that hovered

over a secret arsenal of nuclear weapons stored in 25 fortified underground bunkers.

A Soviet-era report from 1982 documents a bright craft exhibiting incredible maneuvers over a key ICBM installation in Ukraine. While the object was overhead, the missiles independently switched into ready-to-launch mode. Operators could not disarm them. Only when the craft departed did the missiles disengage.

Multiple witnesses reported UAP sightings that coincided with an unexplained drop in radiation levels during the 1986 Chornobyl power station disaster. Immediately after unidentified objects were observed over the site, ionizing radiation from the fire decreased dramatically, reducing the possibility of a nuclear explosion.© The UFO Chronicles.

Veil of deception - Are UAPs Nuclear Sentinels? (Pt 3)

New evidence confirms what military witnesses have reported since the dawn of the nuclear age: unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) have been monitoring humanity's most dangerous weapons. With the last arms control treaty expiring and an increase in the number of nuclear warheads worldwide, government denial of these incursions poses an existential risk. This is the third of a four-part series examining UAP activity at nuclear facilities.

In 1953, following a contentious episode between the Navy and the Air Force that included UFO classification, the CIA-sponsored Robertson Panel marked a decisive shift toward methodical debunking, recommending that government agencies use "mass media" to strip UFOs of their "aura of mystery." This

policy was broadly implemented, as verified by subsequent press coverage. Concurrently, strict regulations imposed severe penalties on military personnel for unauthorized UFO disclosures.

Throughout the late 1950s and 1960s, media coverage of UFOs collapsed. Aliens and spaceships became tabloid fodder. Writing or reporting on the topic was considered career suicide for journalists, despite continuing reports of UFOs from credible witnesses, including pilots and government officials. © The UFO Chronicles.

Roswell Revisited - Are UAPs Nuclear Sentinels? (Pt. 2)

Roswell Army Air Base was located 150 air miles from Sandia Base, south of Albuquerque, the lab where nuclear weapons were being developed and assembled. In July 1947, as the two key nuclear installations conducted joint operations, a startling event occurred halfway between them.

Near the village of Corona, a rancher reported wreckage from a strange crashed aircraft. An intelligence team from Roswell assessed the site and collected debris, reporting back to the base Commander, Colonel William Blanchard. On July 8, 1947, with his consent, the press officer issued a news release:

The many rumors regarding the flying discs became a reality yesterday when the intelligence office of the 509th (atomic) Bomb Group of the 8th Air Force, Roswell Army Air Field, was fortunate enough to gain possession of a disc through the cooperation of one of the ranchers and the sheriff's office of Chaves County. The flying object landed on a ranch near Roswell sometime last week. Not having phone facilities, the rancher stored the disc until such time as he was able to contact the sheriff's office, who in turn notified Jesse A Marcel of the 509th Bomb Group Intelligence Office. Action was immediately taken and the disc was picked up at the rancher's home. It was inspected at the Roswell Army Air Field and subsequently loaned by Major Jesse Marcel to higher headquarters.

The Roswell Daily Record published the spectacular headline: RAAF Captures Flying Saucer On Ranch In Roswell Region. The coverage was picked up by the national and international press.© The UFO Chronicles. All rights reserved.

Ret. Gen. McCasland Missing: UFO Links and What We Know

A decorated Air Force general with a quiet but real footprint in the modern UFO saga has vanished in the New Mexico desert, and the timing could not be more uncanny for a country still arguing about what “UFO/UAP disclosure” even means. Maj. Gen. William Neil McCasland’s disappearance is, on its face, a missing-person

A General Goes Missing in New Mexico

According to the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office, 68 year old retired U.S. Air Force Maj. Gen. William Neil McCasland was last seen around 11 a.m. on February 27, 2026, near Quail Run Court NE in Albuquerque. A Silver Alert was issued after his wife reported that he left home without his phone or watch—an odd break in routine for an experienced outdoorsman known for hiking and skiing, and a red flag given an unspecified medical condition.

Physically, the description is mundane—5’11”, about 160 pounds, white hair, blue eyes—yet law enforcement’s response is anything but casual: the FBI has joined the search, underscoring that this is now a federal matter as much as a local one. The case remains open, and as of this writing no public agency has announced evidence of foul play, suicide, or voluntary disappearance. © The UFO Chronicles. All rights reserved.

Are UFOs, UAPs Nuclear Sentinels? (Pt. 1)

New evidence confirms what military witnesses have reported since the dawn of the nuclear age: unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) have been monitoring humanity's most dangerous weapons. With the last arms control treaty expiring and an increase in the number of nuclear warheads worldwide, government denial of these incursions poses an existential risk.

Missouri Congressman Eric Burlison has said, "Without jeopardizing legitimate national-security interests, our government should be as forthcoming as possible with the American people about what it knows about UAP.” New Mexico Senator Martin Heinrich has supported legislation urging government transparency, stating, "Americans don’t want speculation on UAP; they want answers."

The insistence of an increasing number of leaders for disclosure reflects a growing trend in public interest. This analysis demonstrates why the topic needs to be brought to light.

The Destroyer Of Worlds Spanish Conquistadors named a desolate basin in southern New Mexico with prophetic insight: the Jornada del Muerto—Dead

By David Marks The UFO Chronicles 3-5-2026

Man's Journey. In the summer of 1945, in the middle of this barren stretch of desert, humanity crossed a threshold from which there was no return.

At 5:29 on the morning of July 16, a hundred-foot steel tower at the White Sands Proving Ground held aloft a device conceived by physicists experimenting with the building blocks of reality. Soldiers and scientists lay face-down behind concrete barricades six miles away, eyes squeezed shut against the coming inferno.

The tower vanished in a brilliant flash visible for hundreds of miles, including above the planet. At that moment, the largest man-made explosion that had ever occurred embodied Einstein's equation—atoms transformed into fire like a newborn sun. The desert sand melted into jade-green glass, spreading in every direction.
