Well, I watched almost an hour of various takes on the incidents. To me the videos weren't very convincing although the comments by the military personnel were. Now we've got to wait for what comes out of the government report, if anything. Officially nobody seems very worked up about the whole thing.

I think the reason for the change in official attitude toward UFOs could have to do with the quality of the recent sightings. If military pilots are seeing these things every day for two years, or when fourteen of them appear at once around military ships, looking rather like an aerial flotilla, maybe the problem of UFOs becomes too large to ignore. It's assumed that Senator Reid was the instigator of the UFO investigations, but the details aren't that certain. The Pentagon provided him with the information they had about the recent sightings. Perhaps they hoped, or even expected that the information was strong enough to provoke the Senator to action. That would furnish the military with civilian 'cover' for their investigations, and color any revelations they thought it necessary to make with the aura of following the instructions of the civilian government. That could be seen as less alarming to the public than the military revealing what it knows of UFOs, acting on their own. |

They are Not Interested in Our Activities. ETs can figure in an instant, Earth is a Comedy of Repeated Errors. Besides, they have been here fo 1000s of years and have Not seen a change. ET is here using our Planet as a Base. One of Many Throughout Milky Way. Wat do they call this Galaxy? Same as We will One day Use Moon and Mars. Most of their 'Activities' on Earth are ReSupply; Repair; UpGrade; dA Usual. Same as when Humans Expanded their Reach beyond Home. Exploring. Conquering is a Stupidity later evolved. ET in Not into Conquering. It would be a YAWN for them, and STUPID. ETs here did not 'Advance' as We have(NOT). They Evolved Smarter Right Out of Their Evolutionary Box. Some LifeForms are Lucky dat Way. Most of ETs are 'Based' Underwater. Some are Land Based. There is a Reason ET ALLOWs Us to 'See' Them. I doubt if they Do it 'cause they are Bored and Like to 'F' with Us. I can't figure Why. Maybe to Give Us Some Kind of Hope. Although I Believe ET Thinks Our Kind are Hopeless. Altruistic? Egalatarian? Nope. ET Knows Better. No Serving Mankind fO Them. Unless it be TwilightZone Type. HEEEHEE HEEE So, what to be Revealed in June? Nothin' dat ET has 'Personally Conveyed. Basically: Yep, Our Gubment and Our People and Others througout World have Seen ETs Vehicles.They are Here. DUH Yep May we All have a METAMORPHOSIS. REASON. GOoD JUDGEMENT and LOVE and ORDER!!!!! |

Asteroids and Asteroid Belts. Contain Every Resource ET and Earthlings would Need. 'cept Easily Accessible Water and Food. Advanced ET can 'SQUEEZE Water out of Anything. But it is so much Easier in a WaterWorld. There is a Myriad of Ways to have a Supply of Food and for it to Last a Very Long Time. Again, it is REAL NICE to have Food All Around you - as it is on a WaterWorld. Hmmmm my Gill Slits are a Quivering. Look how Humans are 'Searching' fo 'Earth Like' Planets and We are so Far in Time from Getting to One of these. ET on dA Other Hand. Has Been Buzzin' Around da Galaxy and Galaxies fO a Long Time. Earth SCREAMS out on Their 'Sensors' aka 'EarthLike Finding Machines'. Again. YEP. They Be Here and In June, Dats All dA Guv is Gunna Say. 'They Are Here'. Again DUH.

Now that we're in June, there is speculation about what date within this month the Pentagon and Intelligence Services will submit their report on UFOs/UAPs to the United States Senate. Some seem to assume, without any apparent foundation, that this will occur today. If we look at the limiting date of 180 days from the enactment of the legislation, on December 27, 2020, we get June 25. Of course there's no way of knowing if the report will be held up until the last possible day. It might be presented earlier. Some have opined that even 180 days makes for a great deal of work, in a relatively short period of time. This argues for the latest possible date, and even the possibility of a summary report on that date with more to follow, as additional data is rendered into the form of a report. |

I'm not holding my breath until the document(s) are made public and I really don't expect to see anything like what many are hoping for regardless of what the pentagon and CIA really know.

If there was anything for real, you can bet that we would already know about it. All the rest is conspiracy theory, religion, and Fox 'Entertainment' click-bait for advertising revenue. Also note, do we really want such contact so close to home? Note how the technologically advanced Spanish exploited the Maya for resources and wealth, for just one Human example...

... Yet. All We've Enjoyed as a Public Interested is FUZZY... Exactly so... Even for ephemeral brief events such as comet trails, we get inundated with high-def dashcam footage and even video from security cameras and door bells. So... Why are the UFO teasers only chasing fuzzy grainy blobs that might be anything other than high tech?... Do we have "UFO"s precisely because those UFO pictures are just a fuzzy blob of anything?

Don't think this if the whole report? Pentagon report revealing classified UFO encounter secrets to be released imminently https://www.news.com.au/technology/innovation/military/pentagon-report-revealing-classified-ufo-encounter-secrets-to-be-released-imminently/news-story/cee9fe460df349afca3bc75dcbf988bc A landmark report detailing exactly what the US government and military knows about UFOs will be made public imminently. A groundbreaking report by the Pentagon, compiled using decades of military intelligence about UFO encounters, will be released imminently. The US Congress passed legislation in December mandating the Department of Defence and the National Intelligence Director to produce a report about ‘Unidentified Aerial Phenomena’ within six months. That deadline is reached today, with those around the world who believe the truth is out there now eagerly awaiting its contents. Former president Barack Obama hinted at the significance of the report during an appearance on The Late Late Show with James Corden last month. “What is true, and I’m actually being serious here, is that there is footage and records of objects in the skies that we don’t exactly know what they are,” Mr Obama said. “We can’t explain how they move, their trajectory. They did not have an easily explainable pattern, and so I think that people still take seriously, trying to investigate and figure out what that is.” |

I have seen "strange lights" in 1963, that is nocturnal lights turning abruptly, not like aircrafts or satellites. Tullio |

What the Pentagon has already admitted seems remarkable enough -- their continuing inability to explain certain sighting of mysterious objects, which give multiple indications of solid, mechanical reality. The ability of these objects to exceed the flight characteristics of our own aircraft to such a great degree that their origin in another Earthly nation seems more unbelievable than the possibility that we might have visitors from other worlds. Several nations have looked into the UFO question and found extraterrestrial visitations the most likely explanation for some persistently unexplainable reports. These government reports extend back over many decades. The UFO study conducted for the German government , and headed by Dr. Hermann Oberth, pioneer in rocketry, and the one conducted by Swedish Air Intelligence, both from as far back as the 1950s, spring to mind. The release of these reports did not provoke panic. Nor did they precipitate any aggressive reaction by the supposed extraterrestrials. The relative reticence of the United States in making public its knowledge about UFOs may well be connected to its perceived position in the world. How would it look for the most militarily powerful nation on this planet to admit that it can not control or explain the incursions of mysteriously superior machines into its own airspace, even if these craft do happen to come from other planets? For some reason, not yet very clear, such an admission has now become possible. |

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/03/us/politics/ufos-sighting-alien-spacecraft-pentagon.html U.S. Finds No Evidence of Alien Technology in Flying Objects, but Can’t Rule It Out, Either A new report concedes that much about the observed phenomena remains difficult to explain, including their acceleration, as well as ability to change direction and submerge. WASHINGTON — American intelligence officials have found no evidence that aerial phenomena witnessed by Navy pilots in recent years are alien spacecraft, but they still cannot explain the unusual movements that have mystified scientists and the military, according to senior administration officials briefed on the findings of a highly anticipated government report. |

Russian or Chinese hypersonic cruise missiles? Remarkable that these could dart about, and even hover, but show no traces of the heat plumes from their rocket engines, trailing out the back. Such trails would be revealed by infrared imagery, which the military uses routinely. Remarkable, too, that these supposed missiles can maneuver in ways that subject them to forces hundreds or even thousands of times that of Earth's gravity without tearing themselves to pieces. This should be impossible for any reasonable Earthly technology, whether current, 'cutting edge' or even 'next generation'. These objects are apparently taken by the U.S. government's experts to be real, technological objects, not glitches or fantoms caused by equipment failure or optical illusions. Experimental craft of the U.S. military were ruled out. No evidence that these UFOs (UAPs) are from other planets? One wonders what the Pentagon and the Office of National Intelligence would consider evidence, then. One would have thought them capable of making a rather simple and obvious inference: Devices of demonstrated vastly superior technology , plus no reasonable source for them on this planet, equals extraterrestrial craft being used to visit our planet. |

We are READY NOW fo dA TRUTH. 'Official' 'Report' to be a JOKE. Sickening. Wat a CRAPFest. Yep I'm Guessin' 'bout Everythang. I Looks like Another Stinkin' Nothin' Burger.

There is no "it". Has anyone claimed or verified that these radar anomalies are solid objects. Remember that radar returns echoes from clouds, birds, inversion layers and so on. |

Clouds, birds, and temperature inversions that can move about at the hypersonic speeds documented for these objects?! I'd sooner believe in ET visitors than in rocket-propelled sea gulls! |

If I rapidly sweep a powerful searchlight against some very high clouds--you would see an "object" moving at incredible speeds. That is in essence what is happening here if the reports are true of hypersonic speed. |
