Sigh. These publicity stunts are only damaging the legitimate search. This is Roswell all over again. The difference is, in this case we don’t even have photos. Just some people making extraordinary claims. It’s all based on hearsay. I could say I’m from the Andromeda galaxy all I want but it doesn’t make it so. And, besides, I have nothing to back it up with. The end result is that it weakens the credibility of actual evidence. Unless there’s something to back it up, the US government really shouldn’t be hosting this stuff. It reminds me of the time when the FBI wasted time and money investigating Bigfoot: https://vault.fbi.gov/bigfoot/bigfoot-part-01-of-01/view
