The Disclosure Project is an organization started by Steven M. Greer in 1993, which alleges a US government coverup of information relating to unidentified flying objects (UFOs). The Project claims that UFOs are spacecraft piloted by intelligent extraterrestrial life, that the United States government has kept this secret, and that the government has also concealed advanced technologies obtained from the aliens the Project claims exists.

The Project's goal is for 'free and open' Congressional hearings of all data regarding UFOs, including the large amount of information they claim is being hidden, and for release of the technology they claim is being suppressed, particularly free energy sources. The group follows a conspiracy theory developed by Greer and others.

Public reception

The Project has been well-received by UFO enthusiasts, with speeches from Greer and various other witnesses being presented at various UFO-themed conferences. Since 2001, Greer has held numerous press conferences and embarked on a continuing series of lectures and television appearances trying to raise popular support.

Mainstream media coverage has been mostly neutral, with a BBC reporter deeming a Disclosure Project the strangest ever held by the National Press Club.
