Default The Navy Has No Idea What Is Going on With These UFOs

Naval officers keep seeing what they call “unexplained aerial
phenomena,” more commonly known to regular folk as UFOs. And now the
Navy is officially getting around to looking into what’s going on with
all that. Cue the Mark Snow instrumentals.



I like the WWII term for them, Foo Fighters.


Since 2014, there’s been an uptick in sightings of weird aircraft in
military-designated airspace, as many as multiple sightings a month.
And by weird, well here, this is from The Washington Post:

“In some cases, pilots — many of whom are engineers and academy
graduates — claimed to observe small spherical objects flying in
formation. Others say they’ve seen white, Tic Tac-shaped vehicles.
Aside from drones, all engines rely on burning fuel to generate power,
but these vehicles all had no air intake, no wind and no exhaust.”

Unsurprisingly, in the past, there’s been a bit of reluctance to
report suspicious Tic Tac-shaped flying apparatuses, but sightings
have become so common the Navy has recently put formal procedures into
place for docmenting these sightings in hopes that better
documentation will help officials get to the bottom of what the ****
is happening:

“We want to get to the bottom of this. We need to determine who’s
doing it, where it’s coming from and what their intent is. We need to
try to find ways to prevent it from happening again” Joseph Gradisher,
spokesman for the office of the deputy chief of naval operations for
information warfare, told the Post.

The more formal reporting process is not only intended to help
officials gather data on the sightings but also to remove the stigma
against reporting them, since UFOs defying the laws of physics could
very well be a threat to national security.

Here is a reassuring quote from Luis Elizondo, the former head of the
Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), a secret
organization the Pentagon only confirmed the existence of in 2017:

“If I came to you and said, ‘There are these things that can fly over
our country with impunity, defying the laws of physics, and within
moments could deploy a nuclear device at will,’ that would be a matter
of national security...This type of activity is very alarming and
people are recognizing there are things in our aerospace that lie
beyond our understanding.”

Could someone get Scully to give me a perfectly reasonable explanation
for all this? I know Mulder’s completely nonsensical theory will end
up being correct, but right now I just need Scully to roll her eyes
and say “Tic Tacs don’t just defy physics and deploy nuclear weapons,
Mulder.”
