TBT: 'How the Pentagon learned to start worrying and investigate UFOs'

, a landmark sign that this previously fringe topic has gained mainstream acceptance. And while the report, produced by the office of the Director of National Intelligence ,does provide some new information about the inexplicable occurrences, it leaves many of the biggest questions unanswered.

The report, which includes a classified section available only to lawmakers, details the results of investigations by the Defense Department’s UAP Task Force, established in 2017. Strange flying objects with seemingly bizarre aerodynamic abilities have been spotted by pilots, on radar, and with infrared sensors.

Even without answers, the report is a welcome validation for those in the military who witnessed unknown objects in the sky. “We were ridiculed and mocked by so many, so now it feels nice to have people ask good questions and to have them really be interested in getting to the bottom of it,” says Alex Dietrich, a former Navy pilot who observed a UAP in 2004.

What Dietrich didn’t know at the time was that unexplained objects had been detected on radar in that same airspace for days. Gary Voorhis, a Petty Officer 3rd Class on the U.S.S., began to see things appear on his radar screens on November 10, four days before Dietrich’s flight.Princeton’s The strange objects returned over several days. Voorhis made it a point to look with his own eyes, asking watch officers for radar information so he could know where to aim his binoculars. “I was able to see it on the horizon,” he recalls. “I got to see it during the night and during the day. And it definitely was a glowing object.

If so, she was angry to be ordered into cluttered airspace with no warning. Before any flight, pilots are briefed on every environmental nuance, from the air humidity to bird sightings. Dietrich now knows that radar operators like Voorhis tracked odd returns for days, and the Navy leadership launched her training flights anyway, with no mention of the anomalies.

It's batman.

LOL the world's most powerful military is being spooked by unknowns for decades and can't do anything about it. Sounds like our standards have gone down for classifying the military strength of countries.

PhenomenonMovie look into the Gary McKinnon case

I’m sorry I won’t do it again!

Nowadays it’s probably just Chinese drones

I follow this page and I like the scientific news it provides, but with such a post I demand the Twitter administration to allow it 😂

Green Reptilian Aliens Exist …. They can shape shift into humans and this is why they go unseen as they do walk among us ! They are Ancients and understand everything about us … They do have long term intentions for us … Their plan has been initiated long ago .

Birds 🦅

Let's just cut to the chase... it's obviously an unknown threat to our national security and we should probably throw quadrillions of tax dollars at it by launching a 'forever war' with no end in sight.

Sure ... I have a ghost that has been haunting me for decades too... Ots called 'a wife'....

This is merely an attempt to spin the narrative.We all know the govs of the world work with/for the reptilians.They dont want you focusing on those ET’s that are our parents who are the reptilians nemesis!

Aliens are pushing the contact agenda from their side - it's time we responded from ours: Reach out to extraterrestrials and change the future course of human history.

nicksonsap 😑

Lol I'm ready

Pfffft.

Stop lying to people with these fairy tales.

They know what it is but this is just bread crumbs. I guess, leading to full disclosure.

Like we didn't know that already. We don't need rubber-stamping from officialdom.

This stupid UFO's sighting during the 60's & 70's were done intentionally by U.S government to keep the nation distracted from Vietnam war .

A program error😂😂😂😂😂

The biggest mystery is who made that flesh that's in those crafts. Also where that metal come? Like us who made our flesh.

希望早日找到正确答案。

Naaah its just those Illumaniti people trying to mess with us

Old article

Not just years, decades! 🛸

Is it a Chinese drone?

Klaatu barada nikto.

Fakes, i mean facts in science

They're back to harvest the stuff they planted in people's butts!!

nobody gives a fuck about ur unidentified flying turds anymore

🤔

Are they just buzzing warships ? Or are they everywhere but only warships and military planes have the ability to track and follow them (airline pilots see them too but obviously can’t pursue them).

Disclosure89 In past , these tactics were used to scare enemies - let’s see what usa 🇺🇸 has developed!!

jaimemaussan1 👍👋

Esos videos siempre los graban con las peores cámaras

YouTube broke this news in 2004

Yea, after all the thousands of sad attempts and easy debunks, perhaps these are finally genuine :D (Nope not a chance)

Haha, UFOs have been around longer than we could ever know. Look at this painting from 1350.

susipudjiastuti So now UFO is UAP 😁

And the Devil keeps on playing with the people’s mind!

This stuff only happen in the US...Africa where we at😂?

I always wondered what type of propulsion do these round shaped “Alien” ships use? Although it’s an Alien technology, as claimed every where, does it work on Earth?

So funny all the recordings are always blurry and dark. What a scam

Just wondering why the footage is so crappy 😇 they should get a cameraupgrade 🙈

If aliens are here its obvious they dont want to be found and they have good reason.They see the racism and discrimination withim our species and know that they too will suffer the same fate. So leave them alone

What are we going to do ?

Fuzzy camera on multi-million dollar aircraft :P

You can't expect Aliens/intelligent lifeforms to 'land/make contact' with us; when we are at constant war with ourselves. It's like trying to greet Genghis Khan in the middle of a fight. I mean, 'I would/could get away with it'... But you wouldn't. 🤷‍♂️

Come Explore the Enigma

Wow, took you monkeys long enough. I was beginning to think you would never look up

We know.

Um. Hey, National Geographic? I mean you're awesome in every way but this whole UFO report thing is so old there are TV reruns about them on cable TV now. Try and keep up, buddies. xoxo

The UFO hysteria isn't supposed to start till after the fall food shortages kick in. Come on NG... Quit jumping the gun. It's Pride month, THEN Back to Monkey Pox, then Ukraine or some new Variant of Cov-ID. PS. Why did all the Cov-ID variants stop Ukraine's arrival?

LMAO.. the americans are being fooled for decades with so many UFO sightings in the US alone.. someone has been playing tricky and dirty to confuse the US.. why on earth outside US there is less UFO sightings.. same goes to serial killers.. USA is pretty weird 🤦🏽‍♂️😆

Reality check…

Holy $shit that article is year old

The nazi's were working on anti gravity back on ww2 ( the nazi bell ) and we took those scientists and brought them here plus the Roswell recovered craft. Imagine how advanced this technology is now. They are either aliens or our own craft.

Dumb earthlings are still gonna try and dump lead at this 12 brained humanoid engineered ultra intelligent space craft. earth dummies

What about UFO on Mars? UFO on Mars will openup another mystry.We are taking baby steps in understanding the aliens ufo rather disclosing no information to general public. Aliens & UFO are reality. Curiosity images of 2016 reveals UFO Mars secrets. Image credit NASA

Yes take that swamp gas.

stop with this utter bullshit

Meanwhile real ones in their backyards ringing our interstellar homies up like “we love you, pls ignore all the imperialist dickheads with the guns.”

UFO's are just Time Travelers fixing the timeline, chill....

They only use the damn UAP reference to get away from the stigma with UFO. Same damn shit

The video from the picture in the tweet is a bit of gunk on the camera. I worked with cameras for a few years as a student shooting videos and the most frustrating artifacts would turn up - a big, an eyelash, all sorts of nonsense. And that’s with only 3 years experience. Not UFO

The U.S. gov't denies UFO's for decades, makes me believe in them. When the U.S. gov't says the possibility of aliens is real, I automatically disbelieve. However that might be why they say these things in order to make the public believe otherwise. In conclusion my head hurts.

Chinese drones

They're either looking for food, or deciding we're too fucked up to bother with.

What?

UFO 👾👽

tyhenrymedium Natgeo covering UAPs is interesting to say the least.

Until I get 100% proof. Like a actual real shot down UFO or a real Alien 👽 I will not believe. In todays world with the tech in everyone’s pocket. We should have proof if aliens were real.

tyhenrymedium Ooo. Haunting U.S. warships for years? Gotta read this!

What UFOs?

PostDisclosure Never needed to Worry but study for sure.

One day the truth will be revealed to all. Meanwhile, most Skeptics would remain skeptic.

PostDisclosure

When the Navy and Lou and Mellon let the cat out of the bag. Then the report admitting “they” DOD ain’t got a clue

Investigate what!!!! The US Government has never admitted that they are the ones creating and testing stupid flying objects…. Remember Area 51? Well, it all started there….

There is no way this is real.there must be some explanation to this :-)

Eye roll

'hehe, flying metal pizza'

We would love further investigative journalism on the topic.

The biggest story in human history. Thank you for having the courage to ignore the stigma and report what's going on.

What BS, why do I have to subscribe to read your articles, you can keep them I'll read them elsewhere I'm sure.

It's a speck of dirt on the camera lens.

big brother is watching you👽

We’ve learn how to handle aliens from hollywood, no worry all is good.

Even though several sightings are found. It's not proven, that doesn't mean there are none. I always wondered what is behind those black holes🧐

Please. This has been going on since the beginning of man. I hope before I die I learn why they’ve lied to us about them

'They' could ignate nukes.

Oh god I hope it's the Vulcans.

They are out there... watching us 👽
