Majestic 12 (also known as
Majic 12,
Majestic Trust,
M12,
MJ 12,
MJ XII,
Majority 12 or
Mars-Jupiter 12) is the
code name of a secret committee of scientists, military leaders, and government officials, supposedly formed in 1947 by an
executive order of
U.S. President Harry S Truman. The alleged purpose of the committee was to investigate
UFO activity in the aftermath of the
Roswell incident—the supposed crash of the alien spaceship near
Roswell, New Mexico, in July 1947. The Majestic 12 is an important part of the
UFO conspiracy theory of an ongoing government cover up of UFO information. The
Federal Bureau of Investigation has concluded that documents associated with the Majestic 12 committee are "completely bogus".
