“The DoD has no overarching UAP policy,” a report says.
Regardless of UAP origin, there is a clear issue with government handling and transparency of this topic. The lack of tracking and the ongoing stigma on reporting UAP leaves a sizable gap in national security.
It seems that the incident last year of the Chinese spy balloon opened up not just the public's eye but also they eyes of government officials and military. While that initial object was identified, the increased monitoring then led to the sightings and engagement of the still undetermined UAP in February 2023.
While we're still searching for answers and striving for proper handling by the government, there is thankfully a public push to fill the gaps. Americans for Safe Aerospace, established by Ryan Graves, is helping gather reports by both civilian and military pilots. And, organizations like National UFO Reporting Center/NUFORC have done well providing a public source for reporting and researching any type of sightings.
2024 looking to be an interesting year, especially if these alleged whistleblowers come forward.
Congress seem to have started the year off right with the briefing with the ICIG. Just enough answers to confirm David Grusch's claims, but enough unanswered to keep pushing. Hopefully we can get another hearing soon to bring more people and details public.
