In June of 2021, the U.S. Government released the results of an investigation into 144 reported UFO sightings.
Of the 144 sightings investigated, only one, a weather balloon, had been identified according to the report concerning unidentified flying objects observed by U.S. military personnel in most of the sightings.
As for extraterrestrial life operating the unidentified flying objects, the task force formed to study what has now been named Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs), noted that its mission was not to determine whether the unidentified flying objects were controlled by any kind of extraterrestrial life.
Rather, the task force concluded that extra analysis would be needed to determine the source of the UAPs.
U.S. Senator Marco Rubio spearheaded the commissioning of the report that was ordered by Congress as part of a more extensive intelligence legislation.
After the report was made public, Rubio remarked, “This report is an important first step in cataloging these incidents, but it is just a first step.”
Heeding Rubio’s words, the Pentagon announced plans to “formalize” its UAP that has mostly been substantiated by U.S. Navy personnel that in some cases filmed the aerial phenomena that was being studied, aerial phenomena that flew at incredible speeds, hovered suddenly, and dived into the ocean where the U.S. Navy tracked the unidentified craft traveling at unbelievable speeds underwater.
The Pentagon has concluded that UAP pose a definite danger to the flight of U.S. aircraft and may pose a danger to U.S. national security as well.
Compiled by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence in cooperation with the Navy-led task force that was created by the Pentagon, the nine-page report is unclassified.
Both U.S. military pilots and U.S. Navy personnel have been successful in determining the nature of the UAPs that appear to have beyond-Earth capabilities in navigating the sky and under the oceans.
With a history of suppressing information about UAPs dating back to the reported crash of an alien spaceship at Roswell, N.M. in July of 1947, the U.S. Government has not been transparent, and the task force’s report represents the most transparency concerning UAPs that the U.S. Government has yet to provide.
The transition from calling unidentified flying objects UFOs to UAPs began as early as 2004 when the U.S. Military coined the new term.
In Nov. of 2021, the Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks working in conjunction with the Director of National Intelligence directed the under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence & Security to establish within the Office of the USD(I&S) the Airborne Object Identification and Management Synchronization group (AOIMSG) as the successor of the U.S. Navy’s Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force.
The reason for the change was made as an effort to enhance the U. S. Military’s capability of securing airspace in order to better study and protect incursions into any airborne space that might present a safety risk. The safety of flight issue remains foremost in the mission of the Department of Defense, and the aim of the new organizational change is to make improvements in processes, policies, technologies and training of personnel to better understand UAPs.
