On the Sky News Daily podcast with Dermot Murnaghan, we examine how sightings of unidentified flying objects went from conspiracy theory to US government inquiry – after officials told American media they can’t confirm or rule out alien activity. 

We hear from Sean Cahill, who was the Chief Master-at-Arms on the USS Princeton in 2004 during a UFO encounter, plus ‘UFO researcher’ Chris Jones and Scotland’s Astronomer Royal Prof Catherine Heymans.
