UFOs: What we learned from Nasa's public meeting https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-65729356
So some government propagandist appeared on TV last night. His words broke my Baloney Detector (TM). He explained that in the 1950s, up to half of all UFO reports were caused by flights of the U-2. A Top Secret (TM) aircraft. So the geniuses back then designed the U-2 to be seen? To be flown in its natural metal finish so Americans would see a brief glint of sunlight off the fuselage. Did this person think that ALL Americans have very low intelligence? That Russian agents in the U.S. would not spot it in flight and report back to Moscow?
Whoever that man was - he is a propagandist, which means liar.

Let's stay inside then...The truth is out there.
AARO assesses that all of the named and described alleged hidden UAP reverse-engineering programs provided by interviewees either do not exist, OR are misidentified authentic,highly sensitive national security programs that are not related to extraterrestrial technology exploitation; or resolve to an unwarranted and disestablished program.
The Pentagon has released its annual report on UFO sightings, or what it officially calls unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs) — and found 21 particularly curious incidents.
In total, 757 new reports of UAPs were received between May 2023 and June 2024 and investigated by the Defense Department's All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), according to the report by the Defense Department and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.
Forty-nine cases during the reporting period were resolved during the reporting period as objects such as balloons, birds and unmanned aerial systems. Another 243 were recommended for closure as of June, also resolved to be prosaic objects. An additional 444 cases lacked sufficient data for analysis and were placed in the active archive, where they can be re-examined if additional data becomes available.
However, there were 21 cases that the report said “merit further analysis” due to “anomalous characteristics and/or behaviors.”
Still, the report said there's no evidence, so far, to substantiate life from another planet being involved in these sightings.
“It is important to underscore that, to date, AARO has discovered no evidence of extraterrestrial beings, activity or technology,” the report said. Further, none of the resolved cases substantiated “advanced foreign adversarial capabilities or breakthrough aerospace technologies.”
Jon Kosloski, the director of the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, said in a media briefing Thursday: “There are interesting cases that I, with my physics and engineering background and time in the IC [intelligence community], I do not understand. And I don’t know anybody else who understands them either.”
He said those curious cases were spread out over the last year and a half, and there is some video footage for a few of them, but not all.
“But in each of the cases I’m particularly interested in, there were multiple eyewitnesses. And there is additional data to go with them,” Kosloski added. “It remains to be seen whether or not that additional data is going to be sufficient for us to either resolve the case, understand whether it’s a UAV [unmanned aerial vehicle], bird or balloon, or say something substantive about the nature of the unknown phenomenon.”
