In Plain Sight

Ross Coulthart is an award-winning Australian investigative journalist with a four-decade career in broadcast journalism. He became a central figure in UAP disclosure after writing In Plain Sight (2021) — one of the most comprehensive accounts of UAP evidence, government secrecy, and witness testimony assembled by a mainstream journalist.

Coulthart conducted the first major on-camera interview with David Grusch following Grusch's whistleblower revelations in 2023, asking detailed questions about crash retrieval programmes, non-human intelligence, and the government's internal knowledge. The interview, broadcast on NewsNation, generated millions of views and significant mainstream media coverage.

Coulthart has continued to report on UAP developments through NewsNation, breaking multiple stories about ongoing congressional and intelligence community activity. His journalistic background — including multiple Walkley Awards, Australia's equivalent of the Pulitzer — gives his UAP reporting a credibility that the subject has not always enjoyed in mainstream media.
