Does Congress have to rely on the U.S. military to give them answers about UFOs? One group thinks there are more options on the table, and they believe they could absolutely fill the role with more efficiency and reliability than the military. The question is, will Congress take them up on it?<\/em><\/p>\n

As the world awaits the second, but now nearly two-week-late<\/a>, public UFO\/UAP report published by the U.S. government, a different development has unfolded this week behind the scenes. For months, a group that specializes in investigating the phenomena, and “providing direct access to the general public of reviewed and analyzed data,” has been preparing a private briefing about UFOs to the Intelligence & Special Operations Sub-committee of the House Armed Services Committee.<\/p>\n

That briefing was given this last Wednesday, and the group has offered The Black Vault an exclusive inside look at what all went down.<\/p>\n

They are known as UAPx Inc.<\/a>, and according to their website, they “bring together a global network of researchers, physicists, scientists, trained observers, engineers, enthusiasts, communities, and individuals dedicated to the scientific method in studying Unknown Aerial Phenomena.”<\/p>\n

The group was co-founded by Kevin Day<\/a>, a retired United States Navy Senior Chief Petty Officer who was on board the U.S.S. Princeton during the November 2004 “tic-tac<\/a>” encounter. Although Day has since moved on to the other endeavors, the group continues to be led by its other co-founder and President, Gary Voorhis<\/a>. Voorhis also served in the U.S. Navy on the U.S.S. Princeton during the “tic-tac” encounter.<\/p>\n

Alongside Voorhis is Vice President Jeremy McGowan<\/a>. A veteran of the U.S. Air Force, McGowan built what he calls O.S.I.R.I.S., or Off-road Scientific Investigation & Response Informatics System. This highly customized S.U.V. has state of the art equipment which is able to deploy and track UAP using various sensors and recording instruments.<\/p>\n

Some of the remaining team members of UAPx include\u00a0 Dr. Kevin Knuth<\/a>, a former NASA research scientist and physicist who is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Physics at the University at Albany (SUNY); Dr. Matthew Szydagis<\/a>, a physicist and Associate Professor at the University at Albany Department of Physics pursuing experimental particle astrophysics; and Dr. Cecilia Levy<\/a>, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics at the University of Albany, who like the rest of UAPx, believes UAP should not be a taboo topic, but rather, receive serious scientific investigation.<\/p>\n

Together, these five individuals were directly involved in the Congressional briefing on Wednesday, representing the efforts of UAPx and delivering their thoughts and findings thus far.<\/p>\n
