BAASS and MUFON, 2008-2009
Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies and the Mutual UFO Network embarked upon an ill-fated collaboration during the 2008-2009 time frame. The circumstances were indicative of the Advanced Aerospace Weapon Systems Application Program, or AAWSAP, government contract awarded to BAASS (see AAWSAP records obtained from the Defense Intelligence Agency in the FOIA Document section of the Expanding Frontiers Archive).
View records in the 70-page file linked below that include MUFON emails; research papers, such as "Human Interface"; information about the formation of a MUFON rapid response team to field select UFO reports; and a contract drawn up between BAASS and MUFON, "Purchase Agreement for the Acquisition of Information", that stipulated the provision of field investigative services and the existing MUFON case management system database:

Luis Elizondo IG Complaint
Luis Elizondo claimed to have directed a Pentagon UFO program, while the DOD stated otherwise. In 2021, he filed a complaint to the Department of Defense, Office of the Inspector General, asserting he was a victim of whistleblower reprisal, among other allegations ranging from coordinated disinformation to professional misconduct.
It should be noted, as reported by John Greenewald, a February 2022 letter authored by the Director of the Whistleblowers Reprisal Investigations within the DOD explained the evidence reviewed did not support the reprisal complaint. No action affecting Elizondo's eligibility for access to classified information was taken or threatened against him, it was pointed out. Accordingly, the case was being closed, the letter clarified.

Project Condign
From 1997-2000, the British Defence Intelligence Staff conducted a secretive UFO study. The researchers ultimately found no proof UFOs were of extraterrestrial origin or that people who may sincerely perceive and subsequently report extraordinary UFO-related events were necessarily interpreting the circumstances accurately. Read about the study in files located in the folder linked below, representing hundreds of pages of official records pertaining to Project Condign.
