An excellent new article in The Hill goes into some detail on the very current status of the UAP/UFO mystery. This is the occurence of a wave of UAP/UFO sightings that appear to slightly mimic swarms of drones but when looked at in detail just don't fit the theory. (https://thehill.com/opinion/technology/4...d-answers/).
This evolvement of the phenomenon stubbornly continues and even amplifies despite recent official blanket dismissals of the phenomenon as being in any way unexplained apparently extraterrestrial vehicles, and the continuing official failure to explain away the sightings as some sort of drone swarms from a foreign power or combinations of natural or normal misinterpretations and illusions, etc. Officially the line continues to be "nothing important or unusual here, folks. Don't be concerned". So much for the official position.
First, many of the apparently drone-swarm like phenomena are reported to have flashing lights, often red and green.
The article writer comments that this would obviously not be the case if they were some sort of foreign power's intelligence gathering operation.
The following is a scattering of key quotes from the article:
Some reports seem to be of some sort of "mother ship".
In another type of observation it seems as if the objects can controllably fly in very adverse weather that would prevent normal drone operations:
In consideration of these factors and more an FAA spokesman even declined to confirm that the objects are drones.
And it turns out that apparently identical observations were made in the same areas 55 years ago in 1965, long before drone technology was developed:

The following is a scattering of key quotes from the article:
Some reports seem to be of some sort of "mother ship".
Quote:Perhaps most perplexingly, FAA emails note that “there are several reports that indicate the drones are operating in coordination with a ‘Big Drone’ that may be stationary in the area.”
This larger object, according to the emails, “also described as a ‘Mother Ship,’ is said to hover while all the others fly around in close proximity.”
In one bizarre incident, a Nebraska deputy sheriff reported “observing 30 to 50 [objects] flying independently of each other with a larger ‘mothership’ hovering for hours.”
In another type of observation it seems as if the objects can controllably fly in very adverse weather that would prevent normal drone operations:
Quote:Some of these objects also reportedly flew in “adverse weather conditions,” including “hovering” in winds of “30 mph with 40-plus mph gusts.” A briefing document prepared for the FAA administrator noted that sheriffs from several Colorado counties reported that the objects flew for “several hours at a time in less than optimum flying conditions (high winds and storm-like conditions).
By flying against or hovering in strong winds for long durations and emitting no discernable sound, the objects exhibited unique capabilities inconsistent with conventional drone technology.
In consideration of these factors and more an FAA spokesman even declined to confirm that the objects are drones.
And it turns out that apparently identical observations were made in the same areas 55 years ago in 1965, long before drone technology was developed:
Quote:In an astounding historical parallel, seemingly identical incidents had occurred in the same location 55 years earlier.
Over the course of three nights in 1965, more than 140 Air Force personnel stationed at nuclear missile silos in the same areas of rural Colorado, Wyoming and Nebraska reported nearly 150 mysterious craft demonstrating the enigmatic characteristics observed during the 2019-2020 incidents.
According to Air Force documents, the 1965 observations involved unknown objects with “red and green flashing lights” that illuminated “at one to two second intervals.”
In another striking parallel between the 1965 and 2019-2020 incidents, there was “no sound reported in association with any of the objects.” Moreover, like the more recent encounters, “all reported [1965] observations occurred during darkness or near darkness.”
In 1965, the objects would also “hover” or engage in “up and down movement,” exactly as described by witnesses in 2019 and 2020.
In one notable 1965 incident, an “object moved across the sky at high speed [and] then stopped and remained in position for a considerable length of time.”"

...no drones or other conventional aircraft capable of such flight characteristics existed 60 years ago, adding still more complexity to the mystery."
