why do it? well duh because the aliens are interdimensional time travelers and they keep invading our airspace! So some generals want to find out where they come from so they can nuke them. it’s all right there on youtube.
Wait, you work as a “psychic spy”, if you ever validated any of your info (double blind study or the like) you would no longer believe in your own skills. Maybe he just doubted his skill in improvising plausible sounding scenarios based on literally nothing?
