A congressman from Missouri is embarking on a fascinating mission to uncover potential UFO secrets that he suspects are hidden within military bases across the United States and possibly further afield.

Rep. Eric Burlison, a Republican from Missouri, has already explored one classified facility and aims to visit at least four additional sites nationwide, which are believed to be tied to programs involving the recovery of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena.

Initially a financial analyst and state legislator, Burlison joined Congress in 2023. His interest in UFOs was piqued by the testimony of Air Force whistleblower David Grusch, who claimed under oath that the U.S. government has clandestinely recovered non-human crafts and biological materials for many years.

“I didn’t believe it initially. I’m still a skeptic until I see concrete proof. Being from Missouri, you’ve got to show me,” Burlison shared with The Post. “While I don’t think the whistleblowers are fabricating stories, I just haven’t witnessed the evidence they claim to have seen.”

At 49, Burlison has been following leads from UFO whistleblowers, leading him on a Department of War-organized tour of secretive military bases that have long been rumored to house UFO crash artifacts.

“I’ve visited one base so far,” Burlison recounted about his recent journey, though he chose not to reveal the location. “They were quite forthcoming on this initial visit, even mentioning that it was a test run since they had never done anything like this before.”

An unofficial, informal request to a White House aide in 2025 resulted in Burlison being granted permission from the Department of War to go on the search of the secured locations.

“That location was a low-hanging fruit location. I knew that there wasn’t any activity currently happening, but what I wanted to do was to get eyes on the location so that I could get context for the narrative,” he said, adding, “Just because there’s not an object there any more doesn’t mean that the facilities don’t exist.”

Four other secretive US military bases are on his list and Burlison acknowledged that federal employees “very well could be moving things knowing that I’m coming on specific dates.”

One of the purported bases is on foreign soil, reportedly built around an alien craft so enormous it “can’t be moved.”

“I’ve heard publicly and behind doors in a SCIF that there is an object in a foreign country that is too big to move,” said the congressman of classified backroom briefings from intelligence agencies.

“I think it had been a crash that had been there for quite some time, but I don’t how long.”

But plans to visit that undisclosed location are currently on hold.

“I want more evidence before I go on a wild goose chase in another country,” he said.

In 2025, Burlison orchestrated the release of drone radar footage of a Hellfire missile striking a UFO — with the object barely responding to the high velocity impact. He claimed to see other video not made available to the public, of silver, basketball-sized orbs flying through the air.

But even those videos are not enough to convince the Burlison.

“Until there is evidence, its all just narrative,” he said.
