UAPTF Report: UFOs Are Real. Now What?

• NOW that we’ve had some time to absorb the release of the long-awaited UAP Task Force report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), let’s try to wrap our heads around what the report actually said. First of all, the public version of the report was painfully short. The classified report given to Congressional Intelligence and Armed Services committees is ten times longer. The Department of Defense and intelligence community really don’t like talking about this subject. DoD officials say that even getting that nine page unclassified public report out of the Pentagon was an exercise in ‘pulling teeth’.

• Still, there were important admissions made in the UAPTF report. First, the vast majority of UFO incidents they studied “probably do represent physical objects” as they were usually identified on multiple avenues of sensory data, in addition to testimony from pilots and technicians who watch the skies for a living.

• Second, the ODNI conceded that out of 144 UFO incident reports, they were able to conclusively identify only one of them as a deflated balloon. They simply don’t know what the rest of them are. The government claims that it isn’t American technology (although many people have no faith in this statement). The report goes on to say that there is no evidence that these UFOs indicate a major technological advancement by a potential adversary either.

• The report notes that most of the reported UFO sightings took place in controlled airspace, in the midst of our naval battle groups and even over military facilities in mainland North America. If there were the slightest indication that those things came from Russia or China and were showing up over our testing range in Nevada or Montana, our real-world military would be at least trying to shoot them down. But our top pilots say that these UFOs ‘leave our Super Hornet (jets) in the dust’. Commander David Fravor who saw the Tic Tac UFO in 2004 said that if the UFO had been hostile, he never would have stood a chance.

• Third, the report states, “Some UAP appeared to remain stationary in winds aloft, move against the wind, maneuver abruptly, or move at considerable speed, without discernible means of propulsion,” ie: flight-control surfaces, rotors, exhaust ports, or wings. As for acceleration speed of the UFOs, pilots describe them as ‘simply disappearing’. This suggests anti-gravity technology. It is not a stretch to assume that our military has this technology, and so do our Earthly adversaries.

• There is plenty of substance to the publicly declassified report. Our government has been studying these things for more than 70 years. The scrutiny has intensified over the past decade and new policies encourage the reporting of anomalous encounters rather than punishing anyone who mentions them. Following the release of the report, the deputy secretary of Defense issued a memorandum instructing both military and government personnel to report any UFO sightings and ordering the creation of better methods of receiving, recording, and analyzing such data.

• So where does that leave us? Has the US government switched from a policy of denying the existence of UFOs to one of trying to gaslight us all into believing in them to a limited degree? Whatever they might be — they are out there. They almost certainly are not the property of our government, our allies or our adversaries. Eliminating those Earthly sources, we’re quickly running out of candidates.

 

NOW that we’ve all had some time to absorb the release of the long-awaited UAP Task Force report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), it’s probably a good idea to try to wrap our heads around what the report actually said. Perhaps even more to the point, we should make note of what it did not say, this being a subject that seems to elude some of the reporters who are relatively new to the entire UFO phenomenon. And yes, many of us are going to stubbornly continue to use “UFO” no matter how hard the U.S. government tries to get us to say “UAP” so everyone won’t sound quite so crazy.

The first thing to keep in mind is that the public version of the report was short. Painfully short when compared with some of the aspirational dreams of the faithful in ufology. The classified report given to appropriate congressional committees (Intelligence and Armed Services) is reportedly ten times longer and contains all manner of goodies, but we may never see those. Reliable testimony from former Defense Department officials suggests that even getting that slim report out of the Pentagon for the public was an exercise in pulling teeth. They really don’t like talking about this subject.

None of this should be taken to mean that the report was a dud. There were important admissions made by the ODNI on Friday. One of the first was that the vast majority of “UAP” incidents they studied “probably do represent physical objects.” They draw this conclusion from the fact that most were picked up using multiple avenues of sensory data, in addition to testimony from pilots and technicians who watch the skies for a living. So it’s not just swamp gas, “ball lightning,” or birds. And if you’ve seen one, you may not be crazy. (Or if you are, it’s not because of this.)
