The US Government is expected to release A declassified version of the latest U.S. defense-intelligence report to the public before the end of the year. It is not expected to be any different from the June 2021 “Preliminary Assessment: Unidentified Aerial Phenomena”, released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI).
But Friday December 16th, 2022 Ronald Moultire, undersecretary of defense for intelligence, and Sean Kirkpatrick, head of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, said they are committed to following Congress’ direction to unearth any compartmented programs from years past that may reveal more about the phenomena, if they exist and will be taking early steps to undertake “the enormous task of compiling a historical record of what the government has known about UAP”.
There are officially five potential explanatory categories: 1) Airborne clutter, such as grocery bags caught up in the wind. 2) natural atmospheric phenomena, such as birds, balloons and lightning related phenomena such as sprites and ball-lightning. 3) USG or industry developmental programs, I suppose that would be satellites and drones on our side.4) foreign adversary systems, or satellites and drones on ‘their’ side and 5) “other” categories. The ‘other’ category is most likely what everyone is actually interested in. After all. the previous 4 categories are explanations. The fifth explanation may be why they created AARO.
The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) started in July. The AARO tracks unidentified objects not only in the sky, but also underwater or in space. They are specifically interested in ones which can move from one into the other. Many reports claim something came out of the water, moved through the sky then shot off into space. Basically a flying submarine with space-fairing capabilities withstanding the intense weight and pressure of water in the depths of the ocean and also the virtual vacuum of outer space.
When ask about “space aliens,” the answer was basically that they don’t know and anything is possible. It should be no surprise that they “aren’t ruling anything out,” and that they are following “scientific methods”. Pretty vague. There is also no recovered crash material, no evidence of “trans-medium” craft or vehicles which exhibit flight characteristics that appear to be beyond the conventional technology in our arsenal or that of others which we know of.
All branches of the military now have UAP reporting mechanisms and their respective intelligence agencies are fully cooperating with AARO office. There are apparently hundreds reports dating as far back as the 90’s concerning what are termed as “blue” vehicles, which means U.S. technology that might be of a classified nature and therefor not a threat. Other reports of vehicles are considered threatening, but mostly because they seem to be watching military installations.
As I stated at the opening of this article, an updated report from the Director of National Intelligence expected by the end of the year. I also expect it to be exactly the same as the last one. What about you? Do you think it will be business as usual? Or will there actually be something to finally ease our curiosity?
