Pope worked at the Ministry of Defence from 1985 to 2006 and handled its UFO reports between 1991 and 1994. He has since written and broadcast on the subject. Corpus guests quote his rule of thumb that ordinary explanations come first, and cite him as an official who left a residue of cases unexplained.
