United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA)
If the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) recorded the Antarctic UFO Retrieval Mission in the Queen Elizabeth Range video, it suggests that the organization plays a far more active role in monitoring and documenting unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) than previously acknowledged. While publicly positioned as a regulatory body focused on international cooperation in space activities, its involvement in such an operation would indicate an undisclosed mandate to observe and possibly manage interactions with non-human technology.
The Queen Elizabeth Range, a remote and extreme environment, would be an ideal location for covert operations, making it plausible that high-level international efforts are in place to recover and study extraterrestrial craft in secrecy. If true, this would fundamentally alter our understanding of UNOOSA’s role, positioning it as a key player in a global initiative to regulate, research, and possibly conceal evidence of non-human encounters under the guise of space governance.
The United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) has been operating since 1962, serving as the UN’s primary body for promoting international cooperation in the peaceful use and exploration of space. Originally established in 1958, UNOOSA operates from the United Nations Office at Vienna, Austria. It functions as the secretariat for the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS) and its subcommittees, facilitating global discussions and decisions on space policy. One of its primary responsibilities is the development and strengthening of legal and regulatory frameworks to ensure that outer space remains a domain dedicated to peaceful purposes. Additionally, the office plays a crucial role in capacity building by assisting developing countries in utilizing space science and technology for sustainable socioeconomic growth. UNOOSA also manages the Register of Objects Launched into Outer Space on behalf of the UN Secretary-General, ensuring transparency in global space activities. Among its major initiatives, the “Access to Space for All” program allows diverse communities to benefit from space technologies through collaboration with established space actors. Furthermore, UNOOSA oversees five key international treaties and principles that govern space-related activities, reinforcing its commitment to the peaceful exploration and use of outer space.
The document titled “International Space Law: United Nations Instruments,” is a comprehensive publication produced by the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA). It compiles the key treaties, agreements, and principles that govern international space law, serving as a reference for legal, scientific, and policy experts. The publication emphasizes the peaceful use and cooperative exploration of outer space, reflecting the UN’s aim to ensure space remains a shared resource for all of humanity.
The level of legal oversight over outer space, despite it being an unclaimed and largely unexplored domain, might raise questions. The document assumes a need for highly structured governance, even though enforcement remains a challenge. Some treaties, like the Moon Agreement, have been largely ignored by major spacefaring nations, suggesting political reluctance to abide by certain restrictions.
Additionally, the document reflects a strong UN presence in space policy, despite the fact that private corporations and non-UN nations (such as SpaceX, Blue Origin, and China’s CNSA) play an increasing role in space activities. This suggests a possible disconnect between international legal frameworks and real-world space governance.
The document includes foundational agreements like the 1967 Outer Space Treaty, which prohibits the militarization of celestial bodies, and subsequent agreements such as the Rescue Agreement, Liability Convention, and the Moon Agreement. It also highlights regulations regarding satellite registration and the use of nuclear power sources in space. This publication not only reinforces existing legal frameworks but also discusses capacity-building initiatives and international cooperation in space exploration.
The existence of such a detailed legal framework might seem peculiar, especially since it governs a domain as expansive and unclaimed as outer space. However, it underscores the foresight of the international community in anticipating conflicts and ensuring that space remains a domain of peaceful exploration and shared benefits, rather than a battleground for territorial or resource-based disputes.
Interestingly James Forrestal, as Under Secretary of the Navy, played a role in the discussions leading to the establishment of the United Nations. He participated in shaping post-war policies and the structure of the international order, which included considerations for a global organization to promote peace and cooperation among nations. Forrestal’s tenure as the first U.S. Secretary of Defense coincided with the early years of the UFO phenomenon in the late 1940s. Some theories suggest that Forrestal was involved with a secret committee known as Majestic 12 (MJ-12), allegedly established by President Harry Truman in 1947 to investigate recovered alien spacecraft. Forrestal’s untimely death in 1949, with some theorists proposing that his knowledge of UFOs and opposition to certain national security policies made him a target of powerful interests.
In the 1977 Grenada initiative, a group of prominent scientists and researchers, led by Dr. J. Allen Hynek, petitioned the United Nations to establish an international research program dedicated to investigating unidentified flying objects (UFOs). This initiative, known as the “Declaration of Support Concerning Unidentified Flying Objects,” was submitted to the UN General Assembly’s Third Committee on November 29, 1978. The petition garnered signatures from over 70 professionals worldwide, including notable figures such as Dr. Jacques Vallee, Gordon Cooper, Dr. Peter A. Sturrock, and Dr. James E. McDonald. The signatories emphasized the global nature of the UFO phenomenon and the challenges in explaining many sightings, advocating for a systematic and scientific approach to studying UFOs to enhance our understanding of life’s origins and the universe. Officially, in response to this petition, the United Nations General Assembly included the topic in its 32nd (1977) and 33rd (1978) sessions, under the agenda item titled “Establishment of an agency or a department of the United Nations for undertaking, co-ordinating and disseminating the results of research into unidentified flying objects and related phenomena.” This inclusion was prompted by a request from Grenada. However, the draft resolutions proposed during these sessions were not brought to a vote and, consequently, were not adopted. The General Assembly instead adopted decisions 32/424 and 33/426, which did not lead to the establishment of the proposed agency or department.
On September 21, 1987, President Ronald Reagan addressed the 42nd Session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York City. During his speech, he reflected on how an extraterrestrial threat could unify humanity, stating, “I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world.” This remark underscored his belief in the potential for global unity in the face of common challenges.
In 2018, the Five Continents International Forum convened in Moscow, bringing together researchers, scientists, and government officials from various nations to discuss Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) and potential extraterrestrial intelligence. Funded by China and supported by scientific organizations from Russia and China, the forum aimed to foster international cooperation in UFO research. Discussions led to the signing of agreements on collaboration principles and plans for annual conferences to propose international UFO research projects to the United Nations, emphasizing the phenomenon’s reality and its possible connection to extraterrestrial intelligence.
It is strange, that the Sphere Within Sphere sculpture is at the United Nations Headquarters in New York City, situated within the heart of an institution that represents global governance and diplomacy. Some UFO researchers view its layered, mechanical-like inner structure as a representation of advanced, possibly non-human technology.
If humanity is to gain access to advanced non-human intelligence (NHI) technology, some argue that our collective behavior must change. The recurring theme in global discussions—whether through past UN initiatives, legal frameworks governing outer space, or historical remarks from leaders like Ronald Reagan—suggests that unity, cooperation, and ethical stewardship of our planet may be prerequisites for such an exchange.
The notion that conflicts, secrecy, and environmental destruction hinder progress resonates with many who believe that an evolved civilization would only share its knowledge with a species capable of responsible governance. The persistent efforts of international organizations like UNOOSA to regulate space activities might not just be about preventing militarization but could reflect a deeper, hidden engagement with non-human entities. If operations such as the Antarctic UFO Retrieval Mission in the Queen Elizabeth Range are real, they could signify a global effort to manage contact with advanced civilizations—one that remains out of public view.
If unity and environmental responsibility are the keys to unlocking this knowledge, then the question is no longer whether such technology exists—but whether we are prepared to receive it.
