The Disclosure Project

The Disclosure Project is a non-profit organization dedicated to the de-classification and disclosure of the so-called UFO/Extraterrestrial matter, in addition to open, honest hearings regarding UFOs, extraterrestrials, and advanced energy and propulsion systems which presently remain classified. Uncovering this information, which has remained "covered up" for many years, is the primary goal of "The National Disclosure Project."

The founder of "The National Disclosure Project" is Dr. Steven M. Greer, an emergency room physician from Virginia.

The Disclosure Project is a grassroots campaign headed by Dr Steven M. Greer. It's stated "topline" goal is to petition and legitimately pressure Congress and all US. Gov't officials to fully disclose to the American public "the facts about UFOs (and) extraterrestrial intelligence ..."

Mission

• To hold open, secrecy-free hearings on the UFO/Extraterrestrial presence on and around Earth.
• To hold open hearings on advanced energy and propulsion systems that, when publicly released, will provide solutions to global environmental challenges.
• To enact legislation which will ban all space-based weapons.
• To enact comprehensive legislation to research, develop and explore space peacefully and cooperatively with all cultures on Earth and in space.
• To introduce Zero-point energy as a means for the world to obtain "free energy." According to The Disclosure Project, this will end World Poverty and famine, among other things.

Action

Because congress has not yet allowed for such a hearing, Alfred Webre, the International Director of the Institute for Cooperation in Space and Stephen Bassett, founder of Paradigm Clock, have suggested creating a Citizen Hearing for the testimony of witnesses to be heard publicly outside of Congress.

The Disclosure Project National Press Club Conference

Steven Greer introduced "The National Disclosure Project" to the media and the public on May 9th 2001 at the Washington Press Club Conference. It was notable for being the largest meeting in the UFO community and the large amount of attention it received.

Among the participants were:

• Sara McClendon
• Jon Cypher
• John Callahan (FAA)
• Charles Brown (US Air Force)

BBC news has branded the news conference the strangest ever to be hosted by Washington's National Press Club [1]

Over 20 witnesses, most of them ex-military, have provided testimonies, some of them about the cover-up of the UFO issue. Unfortunately, some were just as likely to relay third-person accounts or give opinions. They have chosen not to include eye-witnesses to alien abduction and have come under fire for this bias. In response, it is claimed that the military witnesses are more easily verifiable. Yet the more reaching conclusions drawn from this project are, at times, clearly at odds with abduction researchers, even going so far as to completely discount any possibility that the occupants of UFO’s could have less-than-benign intent or unethical methods.

Amongst the more elaborate and unproven accounts, former army Sergeant Clifford Stone claimed that he was a direct participant in situations involving the recovery of downed Extraterrestrial saucers, some of which housed Extraterrestrial beings. According to Sergeant Stone, the U.S. Government actively worked to suppress the crashed saucer recovery effort by issuing threats and orders regarding the penalties for discussing these events which Sergeant Stone witnessed on that fateful day in Pennsylvania, 1969.

"You have individuals that look very much like you and myself, that could walk among us and you wouldn't even notice the difference," says Sergeant Clifford Stone, adding that 57 species of Extraterrestrial origin have thus far been catalogued.

An additional claim details several government-contracted companies' involvement in the study and development of anti-gravity technology. Many of these projects are thought to have drained nearly $40 billion directly from the pockets of millions of uninformed taxpayers.

The conference marked the start of a campaign whose primary goal consists of an open, honest hearing on the UFO/Extraterrestrial subject to be held on the floors of Congress; At the start of this hearing, several military, scientific, and political witnesses must be granted immunity of punishment from violating any oath administered under such illegal, "black-budget" programs. A complete disclosure on the UFO/Extraterrestrial subject by the president and the U.S. government at large remains a top priority of the "National Disclosure Project." However, much of the momentum gained has since waned as the events of 9/11, Afghanistan, and Iraq demanded the government and the public’s attention.
