Unidentified flying objects, or UFOs, have captured the imagination of Americans for decades.
But much of the conversation has been confined to science fiction movies and novels.
A big one suggests the U.S. has been concealing alien life and technology in secret compounds like Area 51 in Nevada.
A 2019 poll found 68% of respondents believed the U.S. government knows "more about UFOs than it is telling us."
Then, in June 2022, NASA convened an independent expert panel to help study UAP incidents and advise the Department of Defense on how to gather and interpret data on UAPs.
