What’s That in the Sky?

Maybe Fox Mulder, the indefatigable FBI special agent, assigned to the X-Files, who sought answers to the unexplained week after week, did have it right. Maybe the truth is out there. The Pentagon is looking to find out whether that is indeed the case. The Department of Defense and the Pentagon have recently announced the formation of the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) Task Force (UAPTF). According to a press release issued on August 14, the mission of the UAPTF, which will be led by the Department of the Navy and its Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for intelligence and Security, is “to detect, analyze and catalog UAPs that could potentially pose a threat to U.S. National Security.” The creation of the task force was the result of concerns triggered by the appearance of unauthorized aircraft in military airspace and near military installations and from encounters reported by Navy personnel. (Back in April, the Pentagon released three formerly classified videos documenting these encounters.) Additionally, the Senate Intelligence Committee had requested an analysis of all data relating to UAPs that would be made available to the public. These moves are sure to elicit responses of “I knew it!” from fervent believers in the existence of extraterrestrials and UFOs. However, many seem to believe that the UAPs at issue are intelligence-gathering drones, a more likely explanation that still merits investigation. Eventually, though, the truth will out, but until then, there may be many out there like Fox Mulder wanting to believe.
