UAP & National Security |
Mellon, Gallaudet, von Rennenkampff & McConnell at Disclosure Forum 2026
What does the UAP issue mean for national security, military preparedness, government secrecy, and the balance between transparency and legitimate defense concerns?

At Disclosure Forum 2026, NBC News correspondent Gadi Schwartz moderates a wide-ranging national security discussion with Christopher Mellon, Rear Admiral Tim Gallaudet, Marik von Rennenkampff, and Kirk McConnell.

The panel examines reported UAP incursions around military installations, Navy ships, sensitive test ranges, and U.S. airspace, as well as the government’s ability to identify, track, and respond to anomalous objects. The speakers also explore what the government may or may not understand about the phenomenon, how classified programs and information silos affect oversight, and what disclosure could mean if advanced technologies are involved.

The discussion explores:

Reported UAP incursions over military bases, ships, and training ranges

The Langley Air Force Base incidents and broader concerns about      unidentified aerial activity

Reports of anomalous objects operating in and around the oceans

Whether some unexplained sightings could represent advanced foreign      technology

The national-security implications of potentially transformative      technologies

How classification and compartmentalization can hinder information      sharing and congressional oversight

Special Access Programs and the limits of existing oversight mechanisms

Whether greater transparency could strengthen, rather than weaken,      national security

The potential role of international cooperation if UAP represent a global      security issue

Whistleblower protections and the risks faced by individuals bringing      classified information to Congress

The role of universities, citizen scientists, and private research efforts in      separating signal from noise

The Tic Tac, Gimbal, and GoFast cases and why they continue to shape      the modern UAP debate

The panel also looks ahead at what could sustain the current momentum toward greater transparency, and whether the combination of congressional action, executive-branch releases, scientific research, and public interest has made the UAP issue fundamentally different from previous cycles of attention.

“They Mastered Consciousness”
The Secret Science of the Breakaway Civilization |
Richard Dolan
THIRD EYE DROPS with Michael Phillip:

This one is a sprawling exploration of what may actually be hiding behind the UFO mystery. We dig into the current state of disclosure, the strange behavioral patterns Richard sees across decades of UFO and USO cases, and his provocative conclusion that the phenomenon appears intelligent, adaptive, and deeply interested in humanity.

Then we head much deeper: crash retrievals, black projects, the legendary McCandlish “Alien Reproduction Vehicle,” revolutionary classified science, and Richard’s concept of a breakaway civilization—a hidden technological culture that may possess knowledge and capabilities far beyond the public world. We also explore what an advanced non-human intelligence might understand about consciousness, artificial intelligence, information, and the deeper structure of reality.

Along the way: underwater UFO bases, the Puerto Rico Trench, 80 years of secrecy, consciousness and physics, the future of humanity, and the increasingly difficult question at the center of it all: how much of what we’re seeing is theirs—and how much might already be ours?

Richard Dolan is one of the world’s foremost researchers of UFO history, government secrecy, national security and disclosure, and the author of numerous books including UFOs and the National Security State
