UFO Disclosure: The Key Voices You Should Be Paying Attention To
Disinformation surrounding UFOs is on the rise. Following these voices will help you stay informed.
We’re living through unprecedented times. In recent years, the topic of UAPs (unidentified aerial phenomena—formerly known as UFOs) has been brought into sharper focus, prompting many to take the possibility that we’re not alone more seriously. As this line of thinking enters the mainstream, the surge in disinformation has reached unprecedented levels.
For three years, I’ve been deeply absorbed in this subject, obsessively charting the twists and turns of UAP ‘disclosure’. Along the way, I’ve developed a fair understanding of the community and identified key individuals and sources that I believe warrant attention.
To help others navigate this often murky landscape, I’ve compiled a list of sources I find to be trustworthy.
As always, I encourage you to do your own research and approach these sources with a critical eye—don’t just take my word for it.
David Grusch
David Grusch is a former intelligence officer with the United States Air Force and National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. In 2023, he testified before Congress on Capitol Hill, providing critical insights and advocating for greater transparency and government accountability regarding UAP encounters. Grusch’s work has been instrumental in the ongoing disclosure movement, making him a key figure in the effort to understand and address UAPs.
I highly recommend watching the full 2-hour, 20-minute hearing available on YouTube here.
Ross Coulthart
Investigative journalist and one of the leading figures in the field of UAP reporting. Ross is known for his extensive work in uncovering government and military secrets. He conducted a groundbreaking interview with David Grusch on NewsNation in 2020, which exposed details about the US governments involvement in a UAP crash retrieval programme. Coulthart is also the author of In Plain Sight: An Investigation into UFOs and Impossible Science- a critically acclaimed book that explores the UAP phenomenon through a journalist’s lens.

George Knapp
One of the longest-serving UAP reporters still active today, Gnapp is best known for his coverage of the Bob Lazar story. Lazar claims to have worked on reverse-engineering alien technology at a secretive government facility near Area 51. His new Netflix documentary, Investigation Alien (2024), is well worth watching and serves as an excellent introduction to the topic.

Lue Elizondo
Lue Elizondo is a former intelligence officer with the United States Army and the Department of Defence. He’s best known for his role as the director of the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP). Since leaving AATIP in protest at the governments lack of public transparency, Elizondo has advocated for greater transparency and government accountability regarding UAP encounters. Elizondo’s efforts have significantly contributed to the public’s understanding of UAPs and have sparked widespread interest and discussion on the topic. I strongly recommend reading his New York Times best selling book Imminent (2024)
