Neil deGrasse Tyson used a Monday appearance on 'The Fox News Rundown' in the US to throw down a blunt challenge after the Trump administration's latest UAP disclosure, saying officials should simply 'show the alien' if they want the public to accept anything extraordinary has been found. The astrophysicist's remark followed Friday's release of a third tranche of previously classified files, uploaded to the Department of War's website, which included unresolved cases but no confirmed proof of extraterrestrial life.
The latest dump arrived after two earlier disclosures and a steady build-up of official promises about transparency on unidentified anomalous phenomena. Nothing is confirmed yet so everything should be taken with a grain of salt. The administration is asking the public to look again at the evidence, while one of America's best-known science communicators is asking a very basic question back. Where is the thing that settles it?
