Pentagon alien hunter says glowing inexperienced UFOs invaded his house for seven years

A former senior intelligence officer who led a UFO programme in the US has detailed his own eerie encounters with extraterrestrial activity.

For years Luis Elizondo claims to have been at the helm of a top-secret Pentagon project investigating “unexplained aerial phenomena”. And in a new memoir he tells of mysterious glowing green orbs the size of basketballs invading his home.

The autobiography — titled Imminent: Inside the Pentagon’s Hunt for UFOs — details his experience as an intelligence officer with the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, a classified operation under the Defense Intelligence Agency.

According to The New York Times, the book has taken a year to pass Department of Defense bosses. And while much of his work remains classified, Elizondo has claimed it sometimes followed him home.

He claims his Washington D.C. property was invaded by green, glowing orbs on and off for a staggering seven years. The aliens, which he says were capable of passing through walls, were also witnessed by his family and neighbours who nicknamed them “our friends from out of town”.

Elizondo, who has since retired from the DIA and previously testified before the US Congress regarding the Pentagon’s knowledge of UFOs, asserts the existence of such phenomena has been known since the 1940s. His work has left him convinced that extraterrestrial intelligence is real.

“We can no longer stick our heads in the sand,” he writes in the book. “We know we are not alone.”

Elizondo has been dubbed the real-life Fox Mulder because his Pentagon role mirrored that of the fictional special agent in the hit TV series The X Files. He previously told how he quit the US Government after defence chiefs refused to listen to his warnings that UFOs are real.

According to Amazon, the book will be released on August 20.
