David Bowie famously asked whether there was life on mars and dedicated an entire song to the question. However, the US government has dedicated more than a few tunes to finding the answer, even though they’ve tried to deny it endless times. Fortunately, in 2021 the US intelligence community gave the nation’s Congress an entire report with declassified information about encounters with unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), popularly known as UFOs. Some pretty big bombshells were dropped, and we have gathered some of them here in an attempt to explain them. If you’re a fan of aliens, you cannot miss this!
There’s a category system
Not all UFO sightings are created equal; there are many factors to take into consideration when investigating a possible outer space visit. The first is whether there is another possible explanation for them, and the US government has five different options.
The first is airborne clutter, which includes birds, flying debris, etc. Then there’s weather phenomena, items from US industry developmental programs, foreign adversary systems, —weapons or spy equipment from other nations— and the most exciting category of all: others.
