The Pentagon's announcement establishing a task force to "detect, analyze and catalog" unidentified aerial phenomena is a welcome addition in the now very public search for UFOs, albeit one with its own controversies, according to one expert.
"I support this initiative, which rightly frames the issue in terms of security," Nick Pope, a former employee and UFO investigator for Britain's Ministry of Defense, said in an email to Fox News. "While there'll be debate about exactly what this entails -- mention of unauthorized aircraft making incursions into training ranges sounds relatively mundane -- UAP [unidentified aerial phenomena] is the official term for what the media and the public refer to as UFOs, so there's no doubt in my mind about the true nature of the mission."
Though excited about the public confirmation, Pope pointed out one major discrepancy with the Pentagon's announcement. "The Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 referred to the task force as already being in operation," Pope, who worked for the MoD from 1991 to 1994, added.
It's not yet clear how this new task force relates to the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP). Pope cited "former defense officials" with the group who were involved in work relating to UFOs.
The AATIP was formed in 2007 at the behest of former Sen. Harry Reid, Fox News previously reported. It reportedly ceased operations in 2012, but in 2017, the New York Times reported the Department of Defense was still investigating potential episodes of unidentified flying objects.

That article partially blames the cameras taking the footage while the pilots themselves saw these things looking out of their cockpits.
Murder Hornets, no coins.
Time for the UFO’s.
Their shit is getting old.
Turn off the MSM, you will feel much better.
Fox has pushed this narrative more than most FakeNewsMSM.
a total distraction.
They are here and have been for centuries. Klatu Barada Nikto.
Twilight Zone “To Serve Man.”.............
“Oh, no! It’s the title page of the DNC Party platform statement from the convention!”
Not true. NYTimes and CNN have been the prime sources.
The points that article makes about the camera artifacts are
valid, and those of us interested in such things figured
those things out long, long ago.
The bottom line is that if they are not ours, it is a
national security issue. All of the published information
has yet to prove conclusively that they are performing
completely outside of our capabilities, other than unproven
statements implying speeds, or G forces beyond ours.
(It’s not been actually proven to the public that these
objects have demonstrated such capabilities. We haven’t been
shown videos that prove that.)
There also ought to be a whole lot more video than we’ve
seen, from aircraft, satellites, Doppler and other types
of Radar, etc.
If they are ours, fine. Cute. Very cool, even.
If not, this is hardly an issue that can be ignored.
I think they are ours. I hope they are not the CIA’s.
(Because if they are the CIA’s, we maybe can’t really
consider them ours, unless the CIA is actually completely
ours, these days.)

Laugh at me, I don’t care. I relax by watching the Ancient Aliens DVD sets. I never watched one minute for the first 9 years.
Some funny, some stretched into nonsense, but others make a lot of sense.
Wise thing one man said in recent episode:
“If space extraterrestrials are piloting vehicles and making visits here, they may be advanced, deadly enemies who could toy with us like we did with much lower technological cultures when confronting each other.
Or they could be good and benevolent and trying to help us. However, I have never seen one instance of their trying to help us.”
Why does the Vatican maintain a big telescope and lab with staff in the United States run by Brother Guy Consolmagno? Hes a Jesuit brother, but also a planetary scientist. He directs the Vatican Observatory.
And if all the documentation and films and photos are fake or naturally occurring phenomena misidentified, then why “lose” some forever and “misplace” key items and classify some as absolutely secret?
Somethings’ up. Something BIG.
Thanks for the link. I don’t idolize any such author but like to compare their conjectures with the opposite: Biblical Archaeology Review to which I have subscribed since 2016.
Funny line from someone:
Why would the extraterrestrials spend a fortune on building space vehicles and then travel billions of light years to reach Earth and get jobs as stone masons?
That settles it. I knew Maxine Waters couldn't have been naturally occurring. What's under that mysterious James Brown wig?
Was just watching The Red Planet Mars 1952
When they make contact the newspaper side story to the Contact Story is congress raises taxes 20 billions...
Thanks, but this is one of a dozen or so. :^)

Probably ours if real... Or could be totally fake videos to distract our enemy, or us the people.
