Pentagon Creates New Org for UFO Analysis

Uncle Sam Wants Answers for Unexplained Airspace Incursions 

After a somewhat disappointing revelation of UFO activity in the summer of 2021, with some unusual footage and a few shrugs from the relevant authorities.

After much buildup about answers, truth, and strange happenings, the end result was a bit underwhelming for those who imagined secret databanks of flagrant alien operations or mysterious, spooky phenomena. The Pentagon must take the occurrences seriously, however, as they have opened the Airborne Object Identification and Management Synchronization Group (AOIMSG) under the office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence & Security. 

The Pentagon described its interest in mysterious objects over military installations and training ranges, dismayed at the presence of “unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), sometimes showing little to no response to their attempts at intervention. Director of National Intelligence Kathleen Hicks stated that such things “represent a potential safety of flight risk to aircrews and raises potential national security concerns”. Using an integrated approach across the Department of Defense, the group will aim to “minimize safety of flight and national security concerns associated with UAP or other airborne objects in special use airspace”. 

The summer report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence listed a disconcerting number of unknown phenomena, finding that 143 of 144 phenomena remained unsolved, unidentified, and unmitigated. The report said that UAPs “clearly pose a safety of flight issue and may pose a challenge to U.S. national security. Contrary to some notions of ultra-futuristic extraterrestrial visitors, many of the concerns are somewhat mundane, as they “primarily center on aviators contending with an increasingly cluttered air domain.” The possibility that they are a foreign adversary’s data gathering platforms or potentially disruptive technology remains an issue worthy of some concern, though somewhat less likely according to the report. ODNI notes that many “observations could be the result of sensor errors, spoofing, or observer misperception and require additional rigorous analysis.” 

Aircrew and security personnel were advised to report airborne devices interfering with military training, even if they seemed implausible in their performance or behavior in a June 25 memo from the Department of Defense. With more data collected, and a dedicated interagency effort at tracking down information on any UAP disturbances, the AOIMSG could fare better in addressing gaps in operational and intelligence detection capabilities, as well as creating policy changes to address weaknesses under current systems.
