I found this book to be a good take that avoids hyperbole and tries to stick to the evidence and facts: https://www.amazon.com/UFOs-Generals-Pilots-Government-Offic... If you were to ask me to guess, my bet is that current and past government programs to investigate these objects have concluded that a) they are non-threats to US…
on “The Pentagon’s U.F.O. Program” ↗If you're a scientifically minded skeptic, I'd encourage you to read this book on the UFO phenomenon: http://www.amazon.com/UFOs-Generals-Pilots-Government-Offici... It's a very good read. Also, in all UFO threads there should be a disclaimer that you are not making a point by pointing out that UFO stands for Unidentified Flying…
on “Newly released UFO files from the UK government” ↗For those interested in other "legitimate" UFO sightings, I'd recommend "UFOs: Generals, Pilots and Government Officials Go on the Record" by Leslie Kean [1].

on “130,000 pages of declassified US Air Force files related to UFO sightings” ↗Leslie Kean's UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record. Reading this started my deep dive into the rabbit hole of high strangeness phenomena. Can't say one way or another if it's all just bunk…

Don't be surprised you don't get it when you don't look into it and evaluate the evidence for yourself. If you're interested, see UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record by Leslie Kean.
on “As a US Navy fighter pilot, I witnessed unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP)” ↗You can update your priors by looking into more cases. A pattern emerges. See UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record by Leslie Kean.
on “As a US Navy fighter pilot, I witnessed unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP)” ↗Podcasts are just a form of easily digestible popular media. If you're actually interested in learning see UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record by Leslie Kean. There are many such books with independent accounts of those who have experienced strange phenomena, that are all consistent…

Really bizarre fact about the Phoenix lights, the Governor of Arizona at that time has admitted he saw the UFO (UAP - whatever) [0].

on “UFOs regularly spotted in US airspace, report on the phenomena due next month” ↗…anything new here. Luis Elizondo (who’s basically Guy Fieri mixed with Fox Mulder) looks and sounds like a crackpot, and keeping this up sure seems like a good way to drive sales of Leslie Kean’s book about UFOs. So I’m really not inclined to believe this is anything really extraordinary, since so little credible, verifiable information has trickled out over the past year. “The incidents tapered off after they…
