I'm very passionate about the UFO subject ("ufology" as some call it) and am happy that we're getting more "official" reports like this which leads to public awareness. I follow the subject pretty closely and 90% of it is all about book sales so it's annoying/pushes it back from being taken seriously in terms of science.

As far as I'm concerned this ^ and the Phoenix Lights are the most credible UFO sightings.

Personal note: I'll never forget the first time I saw a UFO and it was with my Dad! We couldn't believe it - my cheap Virgin Mobile flip phone camera was not capable of... well anything, unfortunate. I have seen 2 or 3 UFOs since then (one with an ex-partner so I wasn't just seeing things).

BTW, I'm you're typical "smart" logical programmer and don't just believe whatever I hear... I'm betting on more of these reports coming out and hope that science starts to factor into the subject.

I think the TPTB decided that a next pandemy may wipe the whole humanity off, and decided that it is the time to start giving out the information, piece by piece.
Thoughts on the roswell ufo incident?
I saw no compelling evidence of anything. Too long ago, too easy to cover up / make things up. That's just my .05 though.
(serious question) Was covering up 'Project Mogul' explanation not adequate?
What about the Tehran UFO incident?
Ah good one. I only wrote in the ones that are very obviously but...

- Kecksburg UFO incident - Chilean Navy UFO incident

Kecksburg is a stretch for most people, but I lived around there and heard first-hand reports. Not that that really matters.
