This makes the confirmation sound like the start of a new policy. Is it?
This definitely matches the description by one of the pilots as "a sphere encasing a cube," but it wouldn't really explain the directional changes or extremely high observed speeds.
The object descended from 28000FT to 50FT at 24000 miles per hour with instant acceleration, no signs of thrust or even wings. According to the reports, for me its whether you believe the reports from those that saw it or not. If you choose to believe them, then it's hard to believe the earth tech to allow this was possible in 2004.
I'd like to discuss this further with you privately if you are so inclined. Email is in my profile. Send me something if you'd like to discuss further. cheers
Before people here start offering ideas of what they think these objects are, let review what we know they are not:
They are not balloons:
-they move too fast and travel under water (as there were confirmed sonar hits of these objects).
They are not conventional aircraft:
-they have no wings or signs of obvious conventional propulsion.
They were not false radar blips:
-they were tracked on advance gun sight cameras including in both the infrared and high definition video modes.
They were not camera software malfunctions
-Because they were tracked on Navy ship radar, Sonar, Space based radar, and jet fighter radar.
These objects can do maneuvers that can’t be explain by our conventional physics because they defy our common understanding of inertia. This includes accelerating at extreme speeds, stopping on a dime, and changing directions instantaneously.
The real truth is the US government (and others) do know, and have known for decades, that these craft are extra terrestrial. In addition the US government has recovered and possible reverse engineered some of the technology behind them. This secret they believe is too large to let go of due to multiple military, social, economic and religious implications, none the less, it’s our responsibility to hold them to account and demand they tell the truth! Way too much is at stake to keep this all hidden any longer, it’s time for full UFO disclosure.
Which is more likely: aliens have arrived on Earth with extraterrestrial vehicles from (likely) light years away, and have allowed themselves to be spotted by terrestrial aircraft; or, militaries with huge budgets and some of the smartest scientists and engineers in the world have designed incredible vehicles that have been kept secret even from members of their own military?
While the latter is more likely given that our governments have done exactly this in the past, there are some reasons to believe that if aliens were to warm up to the idea of contacting us, it might be pretty soon.
We have global communication networks now and are rapidly approaching AGI. For all we know we could be on the verge of a critical inflection point for our civilization that might make it worthwhile to interfere.
Also, the idea that we've been under quarantine up until now is a pretty compelling explanation for the Fermi paradox.
What about crafts that were sighted doing the same maneuvers in the 1940s and 50s? The obvious answer to your question is "latter", but the obviousness deteriorates as you look into historic occurrences.
Are we sure that previous sightings are related to modern sightings? If they are then they went up massively in frequency based on reports from pilots, though that might make sense simply due to improvements in our technology.
Both are possible. The latter is more likely in a textbook epistemological sense because we know black budget military vehicles exist while we don't have any proof aliens exist.
I'd say it's more likely there are other intelligent earthbound beings rather than from outer space. It's called the Silurian hypothesis. There have been several extinction events here on earth which mirror our current one caused by humans. Evidence of us on earth disappears surprisingly quickly: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/international-journa...
That is a very interesting paper and I only read about half of it, but so far it looks like is says that we will definitely leave a signature on a multi-million year timescale and while it explores the possibility of the Silurian hypothesis, it says that it's unlikely, but lays out some possible markers if it were true.
I think it's a good paper, but one that says the opposite of what you believe.
Also, this paper explores markers of human-like civilizations on million year timescales. It would not touch in any way their continued existance, that is inferred in your comment.
While I'm sure these are most likely some sort of military drones or other type of classified technology (don't ask me which nation's), I will note that the description of these things sounds an awful lot like a Culture drone.

We are as far away from that as we were when we were banging rocks together in caves, IMHO
And, we do know we're about to hit a point of no return in terms of climate and the viability of the civilization.
But these systems weren't totally independent: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19829428
Especially the part about:
The government is not at all concerned about religious implications. The hydrogen bomb's invention and test programs makes that very clear.The A in UFO is for Aliens.

Just saying.
