The US Navy has finally acknowledged footage purported to show UFOs hurtling through the air. And while officials said they don't know what the objects are, they're not indulging any hints either.

(CNN) The US Navy has finally acknowledged footage purported to show UFOs hurtling through the air. And while officials said they don't know what the objects are, they're not indulging any hints either.

The objects seen in three clips of declassified military footage are "unidentified aerial phenomena," Navy spokesperson Joe Gradisher confirmed to CNN.

The clips, released between December 2017 and March 2018 by To The Stars Academy of Arts & Sciences, appear to show fast-moving, oblong objects captured by advanced infrared sensors.

In footage from 2004, sensors lock on a target as it flies before it accelerates out of the left side of the frame, too quickly for the sensors to relocate it.

In footage from 2004, sensors lock on a target as it flies before it accelerates out of the left side of the frame, too quickly for the sensors to relocate it.

Two of the videos, both from 2015, contain audio from US fighter pilots attempting to make sense of what they're seeing.

​

"It's a f****g drone, bro," a pilot says to his colleague in the first clip.

"My gosh! They're all going against the wind."

"Look at that thing, dude!"

Gradisher said the Navy's transparency about unidentified aerial phenomena, or UAP, is largely done to encourage trainees to report "incursions" they spot in the airfield, which threaten pilots' safety.

"This is all about frequent incursions into our training ranges by UAPs," he said. "Those incursions present a safety hazard to the safe flight of our aviators and the security of our operations."

The public clips capture just a fraction of the frequent incursions Navy training ranges see, he said.

"For many years, our aviators didn't report these incursions because of the stigma attached to previous terminology and theories about what may or may not be in those videos," he said.

The only way to find out what those UAP are, he said, is to encourage trainees to report them when they see them.

Thnx Ilan...
I am now wondering how close we are to 'Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind' ?


- Hynek's scale
Hynek devised a sixfold classification for UFO sightings. They are arranged according to increasing proximity.


Nocturnal Lights
Lights in the night sky.

Daylight Discs
UFOs seen in the daytime.

Radar-Visual
UFO reports that have radar confirmation.

Close Encounters of the First Kind
Visual sightings of an unidentified flying object, seemingly less than 500 feet away, that show considerable detail.

Close Encounters of the Second Kind
A UFO event in which a physical effect is alleged. This can be interference in the functioning of a vehicle or electronic device; animals reacting; a physiological effect such as paralysis or heat and discomfort in the witness; or some physical trace like impressions in the ground, scorched or otherwise affected vegetation, or a chemical trace.

Close Encounters of the Third Kind
UFO encounters in which an animated creature is present. These include humanoids, robots, and humans who seem to be occupants or pilots of a UFO.


-Extensions of Hynek's scale.

Close Encounters of the Fourth Kind
A UFO event in which a human is abducted by a UFO or its occupants.

Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind
A UFO event that involves direct communication between aliens and humans.

Close Encounters of the Sixth Kind
Death of a human or animal associated with a UFO sighting, although some might consider this as a more severe example of a second-kind encounter.

Close Encounters of the Seventh Kind
The creation of a human/alien hybrid, either by sexual reproduction or by artificial scientific methods.

I wonder if we will ever find out in our lifetimes. There sure have been loads of sightings over the years, and there is no shortage of people claiming to have been abducted. With respect to the military sightings, you would think they'd be able tell right away whether they are drones or "something else" by examining the images and their flight patterns.
