The report suggests that the U.S. government appears to be taking UFOs seriously.
The Pentagon's long-awaited 2022 report on unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAP, is finally here.
The unclassified "2022 Annual Report on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena" was published by the Pentagon's Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) on Thursday (Jan. 12) after a months-long delay. The report was mandated by the 2022 National Defense Authorization Act and was created by ODNI's National Intelligence Manager for Aviation and the newly-established All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO). Input was gathered from various intelligence community agencies and military intelligence offices, the Federal Aviation Administration, the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the Department of Energy (DoE), and NASA.
In all, the report (opens in new tab) covers some 510 cataloged UAP reports gathered from agencies involved in the report and the branches of the United States military. The document notes that the majority of these were gathered from U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force personnel who reported them through official channels. Ultimately, the unclassified report concludes that, while UAP "continue to represent a hazard to flight safety and pose a possible adversary collection threat," many of the reports "lack enough detailed data to enable attribution of UAP with high certainty."
Out of these 510 total UAP reports, ODNI assessed 366 that had been newly identified since AARO's creation. Of these, 26 were characterized as uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS), or drones, 163 were attributed to balloons or "balloon-like entities," and six were found to be airborne "clutter" such as birds or airborne plastic shopping bags.
That leaves 171 reported UAP sightings that remain "uncharacterized and unattributed," according to ODNI's report. "Some of these uncharacterized UAP appear to have demonstrated unusual flight characteristics or performance capabilities, and require further analysis," the report adds.

Nothing to see here, move along children!
Even though Eisenhower made a treaty with them ?
$10 million later: “Some of these uncharacterized UAP appear to have demonstrated unusual flight characteristics or performance capabilities, and require further analysis because we just don’t know what the hell they are.”
How close to a nothing burger can they slither along?
It’s a blank sheet of paper with words.
I will never forget my first sasquatch encounter.
Congratulations to dot gov for making ufos boring.😴
Oh there are space aliens all right but there is absolutely no way they will make contact. Even a cursory observation would determine the human race is one crazy bunch.
Guess they want us talking about something other than Biden’s multiple stashes of classified documents he broke the law mishandling.
Must be at least a couple of billion cell phones in use, and the cameras in them are pretty high quality. Long gone are the days of blurry black and white pics of pie plates sailing in front of an antiquated camera.
Someone, somewhere would have snapped a clear pic of an alien spacecraft, or an alien being, if they existed. But honestly, it’s a lot more fun to pretend UFOs are alien spacecraft.
What did he say to you?
Not sure that’s correct. I know for a fact that when you see something that makes no sense at all, the last thing many people might think of is taking a picture of it.
I saw something years ago (not a UFO, but something very weird), and there was a camera within a few feet of me; I didn’t even think of taking a picture, I was just mesmerized.
(And not everyone has their phone, and phone ON, at the moment the thing appears...we all don’t live to record everything we see.)
I think it used to be said that there were 5 or 10 per cent of sightings that couldn’t be explained. According to what I heard tonight, that number seems to be going up...
We come in peace. And we have come to return some of Biden's classified documents we had stored on Mars.
imagine a huge furry hand picking you up like a kitten.
then looking at you.
there were no words
Bump for later.
Or, we don’t want to reveal classified research programs just yet.
Be happy it was a sasquatch and not a dogman. You’d be dead
