Officials who looked at that video found a similar pyramid shape.
UAPs, Carson said, "are a potential national security threat and they need to be treated that way." André Carson, the Democratic chairman of the House Intelligence Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence, and Counterproliferation Subcommittee, called Tuesday's hearing, the first in more than 50 years focused on the aerial incidents. That footage, which the military confirmed last year was authentic, had helped spur interest in purported UFOs, also referred to as "unidentified aerial phenomena" or UAPs. intelligence community.Ī Navy official also said at Tuesday's hearing that investigators are "reasonably confident" the floating pyramid-shaped objects captured on one leaked, widely seen military video were likely drones. WASHINGTON - Top Pentagon officials told a House panel on Tuesday that there are now close to 400 reports from military personnel of possible encounters with UFOs - a significant increase from the 144 tracked in a major report released last year by the U.S. The remaining 171 reports “uncharacterized and unattributed UAP reports” defy easy explanation, the report said: “Some of these uncharacterized UAP appear to have demonstrated unusual flight characteristics or performance capabilities, and require further analysis.Testifying before a House Intelligence subcommittee, Pentagon officials did not disclose additional information from their ongoing investigation of hundreds of unexplained sighting Of the 366 total new reports, 26 looked to be drones of some kind, 163 were balloons, and 6 were clutter, which the report defined as “birds, weather events, or airborne debris like plastic bags.” When it started to chase down these events, most of them turned out to be balloons or “balloon-like entities.”
In addition to the 247 new reports, the AARO also investigated an additional 144 reports of sightings that occurred before the Pentagon got so interested in the topic. However, ODNI and AARO acknowledge that a select number of UAP incidents may be attributable to sensor irregularities or variances, such as operator or equipment error.” “Regarding review or analysis of UAP events, ODNI and AARO operate under the assumption that UAP reports are derived from the observer’s accurate recollection of the event and/or sensors that generally operate correctly and capture enough real data to allow initial assessments. “Multiple factors affect the observation or detection of UAP, such as weather, illumination, atmospheric effects, or the accurate interpretation of sensor data,” it said. The report also acknowledged that some of these 247 sightings, when chased down, had reasonable explanations. “This increased reporting allows more opportunities to apply rigorous analysis and resolve events.” “The observed increase in the UAP reporting rate is partially due to a better understanding of the possible threats that UAP may represent, either as safety of flight hazards or as potential adversary collection platforms, and partially due to reduced stigma surrounding UAP reporting,” the report said. “This totals 510 UAP reports as of 30 August 2022.”Īccording to the report, the Pentagon has been fielding more reports about UAPs in the last year and that most of these reports have come from U.S. “In addition to the 144 UAP reports covered during the 17 years of UAP reporting included in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) preliminary assessment, there have been 247 new reports and another 119 that were either since discovered or reported after the preliminary assessment’s time period,” the report said. military’s investigation into UFOs since its initial report on the matter in 2021. This new report is a high-level summary of the U.S.
