These observations could be the result of sensor errors, spoofing, or observer misperception and require additional rigorous analysis,\u201d the report continues. \u201cThere are probably multiple types of UAP requiring different explanations based on the range of appearances and behaviors described in the available reporting. Our analysis of the data supports the construct that if and when individual UAP incidents are resolved they will fall into one of five potential explanatory categories: airborne clutter, natural atmospheric phenomena, USG or U.S. industry developmental programs, foreign adversary systems, and a catchall \u2018other\u2019 bin.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cUAP clearly pose a safety of flight issue and may pose a challenge to U.S. national security,\u201d the report acknowledges. \u201cSafety concerns primarily center on aviators contending with an increasingly cluttered air domain. UAP would also represent a national security challenge if they are foreign adversary collection platforms or provide evidence a potential adversary has developed either a breakthrough or disruptive technology.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cConsistent consolidation of reports from across the federal government, standardized reporting, increased collection and analysis, and a streamlined process for screening all such reports against a broad range of relevant USG data will allow for a more sophisticated analysis of UAP that is likely to deepen our understanding,\u201d the \u201cExecutive Summary\u201d concludes. \u201cSome of these steps are resource-intensive and would require additional investment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>After describing various limitations and analytical problems regarding the data of such events, the report then moves to declare that \u201cUAP probably lack a single explanation.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cThe UAP documented in this limited dataset demonstrate an array of aerial behaviors, reinforcing the possibility there are multiple types of UAP requiring different explanations,\u201d the report states. \u201cOur analysis of the data supports the construct that if and when individual UAP incidents are resolved they will fall into one of five potential explanatory categories: airborne clutter, natural atmospheric phenomena, USG or industry developmental programs, foreign adversary systems, and a catchall \u2018other\u2019 bin. With the exception of the one instance where we determined with high confidence that the reported UAP was airborne clutter, specifically a deflating balloon, we currently lack sufficient information in our dataset to attribute incidents to specific explanations.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The report defines such categories as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><span>Airborne Clutter: These objects include birds, balloons, recreational unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), or airborne debris like plastic bags that muddle a scene and affect an operator\u2019s ability to identify true targets, such as enemy aircraft.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><span>Natural Atmospheric Phenomena: Natural atmospheric phenomena includes ice crystals, moisture, and thermal fluctuations that may register on some infrared and radar systems.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><span>USG or Industry Developmental Programs: Some UAP observations could be attributable to developments and classified programs by U.S. entities. We were unable to confirm, however, that these systems accounted for any of the UAP reports we collected.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><span>Foreign Adversary Systems: Some UAP may be technologies deployed by China, Russia, another nation, or a non-governmental entity.<\/span><\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><span>Other: Although most of the UAP described in our dataset probably remain unidentified due to limited data or challenges to collection processing or analysis, we may require additional scientific knowledge to successfully collect on, analyze and characterize some of them. We would group such objects in this category pending scientific advances that allowed us to better understand them. The UAPTF intends to focus additional analysis on the small number of cases where a UAP appeared to display unusual flight characteristics or signature management.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span>The report agrees that \u201cUAP pose a hazard to safety of flight and could pose a broader danger if some instances represent sophisticated collection against U.S. military activities by a foreign government or demonstrate a breakthrough aerospace technology by a potential adversary,\u201d outlining \u201congoing airspace concerns\u201d and \u201cpotential national security challenges.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The report then concludes by calling for further analysis and investment, including the expansion of data collection and increased research and development.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>You can read the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/s3.documentcloud.org\/documents\/20973227\/prelimary-assessment-uap-20210625.pdf\"><span>full unclassified report here<\/span><\/a><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
