It's News Nation, so take it with a grain of salt. They seem to be having a lot of click baity things on their Youtube channel.

I did find this UAP video interesting. It doesn't look fake to me, but I don't know the small things to look for.

The thing that drives me nuts though, it they never show the whole video. They don't show when it appeared, which I get might be difficult if no one was recording at that time. But they also don't show when it goes away, I am certain that one of the several people recording it, would have recorded right to the end.

The full video doesn't seem to be online anywhere, so that is a red flag. Still, I would like to know what it is:

Not sure where to put this, but this thread seems appropriate.

Thought this was an interesting comment made by General Gregory M. Guillot with regards to the recent news about mysterious drones swarming AFB Langley.

Russia? China? Private companies? Internal Enemy? Black Ops program? Other?

Bump. Thought this would be an interesting update.

Remember those objects shot down in early 2023? The one over the Yukon apparently has a declassified picture. The CTV article does a good job explaining the context behind its release and its classification. Also note, Daniel Otis is one of Canada's top UAP journalists and covers the subject extensively.

Were those the Chinese spy balloons? Or was that other event?

Another event. Though appears to just be an oddly shape balloon.

Quote:
A U.S. F-22 fighter jet shot down the object on Feb. 11, 2023, shortly after it entered Canadian airspace in the Yukon territory, which borders Alaska. It was one of three unidentified aerial objects(opens in a new tab) blasted out of the sky that month following the high-profile Feb. 4, 2023 downing of an apparent Chinese surveillance balloon(opens in a new tab). Shot down over Alaska, Yukon and Lake Huron between Feb. 10 and 12, 2023, the three objects were reportedly much smaller than the towering Chinese balloon.

At the time, officials described the Yukon object(opens in a new tab) as a "suspected balloon" that was "cylindrical" in shape. A reported Pentagon memo(opens in a new tab) said it appeared to be a "small, metallic balloon with a tethered payload below it."

Released as part of the freedom of information request package, an email from a Canadian brigadier-general offered what they described as the "best description that we have" of the Yukon object.

"Visual - a cylindrical object," they wrote in an Feb. 11, 2023, email. "Top quarter is metallic, remainder white. 20-foot wire hanging below with a package of some sort suspended from it."

The image appears to have been taken from an aircraft below it, although that has not been confirmed.

I like to think that the Aliens are smart enough to use the cover of Chinese balloons to then show up just after that, ensuring humanity would right them off as just balloons. Stupid humans!

If it was alien tech, I doubt our comparatively primitive tech would be able to shoot it down. I would still love to know just what the heck it was though. I assume another spy balloon or someone conducting unauthorized experiments.

So, anyone following the New Jersey UAP/drone flap? US government announced this afternoon they don't have public details on the drones and don't know what they are. Have been going on since Nov 18 at nightfall, are up to six feet in diameter, have avoided detection from helicopters and radio frequencies, and have had up to 180 reports per night of these things.

Speculation was it could have been Iranian drones flying in from the ocean, but that is not confirmed. FBI, OHSP, coast guard, and FAA all now involved. Even the NJ governor and Congress folks are issuing statements

Yeah, it's pretty wild. It's a notable story on its own accord (UAP or not)

Pentagon said they are not from any foreign entities and also not US military drones. Also said there is no truth to the fake news about the Iranian mothership off the east coast of the US launching these drones.

ATC from Oregon where these lights were also reported. Pretty crazy. Recorded on December 8, 2024 at 0400z-0500z or 8pm-9pm PST over the skies of Oregon.

That was interesting, it was like 14 minutes of ATC speak for "wtf is that?!??!".

It's funny listening to all the pilots asking to have the video shared with them too... it seems like everyone's curious what the hell is going on.
