UAP / UFO 2023 breakdown

Why don't we have disclosure yet?!

Introduction

In 2023, the global conversation around Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) and Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) continued to evolve, marked by several key developments. The year witnessed notable legislative efforts aimed at enhancing transparency around UAPs, including the proposal of the UAP Disclosure Act of 2023. This legislative move sought to establish mechanisms for declassifying related government records, reflecting a bipartisan interest in the subject. Furthermore, the Pentagon released investigational reports addressing UAP sightings, although these findings did not confirm extraterrestrial origins. The reports were part of a broader attempt to analyze and understand the phenomena within a scientific and security framework. NASA also took proactive steps by engaging in the study of UAPs, emphasizing the need for scientific methodologies to explore these sightings. The agency's approach underscored a commitment to applying rigorous science in the quest for explanations. Throughout the year, individuals and organizations within the UFO research community continued to play a pivotal role, pushing for greater access to information and challenging the public and authorities to reconsider their perceptions of these mysterious occurrences.  So why on Earth don't we have disclosure yet?

Let's take an objective and concise look at this year's key UFO and UAP-related events, and delve into the current state of research, legislative actions, and the ongoing debate surrounding the subject.

NASA's Involvement in UAP Research

NASA's engagement with Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) research marks a significant step towards understanding these mysterious occurrences through a scientific lens. Below is an outline of NASA's initiatives in this realm, focusing on the formation of an independent study group and the key findings from their endeavors.

Formation of the Independent Study Group

In a groundbreaking move, NASA convened an independent study group composed of experts from diverse fields. This initiative was aimed at leveraging scientific methodologies to investigate UAP sightings. The group's interdisciplinary approach signifies NASA's commitment to exploring these phenomena beyond the conventional paradigms of aerospace and astrophysics.

Key Findings and Conclusions

The independent study group's efforts culminated in a comprehensive report that underscored the need for advanced technological solutions and methodologies to better understand UAPs. While the report did not confirm extraterrestrial origins for the observed phenomena, it highlighted the importance of continuous scientific inquiry and the development of new techniques to analyze UAP sightings more effectively.

This pivotal report by NASA and the ensuing discussions within the scientific community represent a critical juncture in UAP research. By advocating for a methodical and technology-driven approach, NASA aims to demystify the phenomena and contribute to a broader understanding of UAPs within the scientific and public spheres. 

Critiques of NASA's progress

Despite NASA's endeavors to apply scientific rigor to the study of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP), criticisms have emerged regarding the agency's handling of the subject. Critics argue that the focus on disproving extraterrestrial origins, as seen in recent reports, may limit the scope of inquiry and overlook potentially significant findings beyond conventional explanations. Concerns have also been raised about the sufficiency of data quality and the impact of stigma on the field, which could hinder comprehensive research and discourage participation from wider scientific communities. Furthermore, the call for NASA to receive additional funding if it continues investigating UAP claims underscores the financial and resource constraints faced by the agency, potentially affecting the depth and breadth of its investigations.

This perspective suggests that for UAP research to advance, a more open-minded approach may be required—one that considers all possibilities without premature conclusions. Critics emphasize the need for a collaborative effort that spans across governmental, scientific, and civilian sectors to foster a more inclusive and exhaustive exploration of UAP phenomena.

UAPsee Lowdown..

Where to start? It seems that NASA's sudden energy to research this phenomena plays alongside a drip fed government rhetoric, that still poo poos the subject and gives in to the fact that if they tell people there isn't anything there, most of the time they'll believe it. However this is becoming less and less the case as more independent researchers and UFObbyists (I'm coining that term!) are emerging, looking for answers and the truth. Can NASA honestly say hand on heart that in the entirity of their existence they have never captured anything on video, sensors, or, had reports of anything unexplained? What has been the reason for them (even though they are a space agency so it would have made sense at conception) to suddenly start becoming interested in the UAP phenomena? This by all accounts, specificlaly Ross Coulthart is the same with all of the industrial complex that is purported to have, and still be behind the research of exotic extra terrestrial material. Is this technology that has been behind closed doors needed in this turmultuous world that we've created? Are we being allowed to take the next step to enlightenment, and are being placed at a fork in the the road to see which path us squidgy brained monkeys will decide to take? I know most of us would take the right one but will we be allowed?

Congressional Hearings and Revelations

Congressional Hearings on UFOs/UAPs:

• • July 2023: Congress hosted a series of hearings that brought attention to UAPs. These sessions were designed to assess the current state of UAP knowledge within the government and explore the potential need for more systematic government research and oversight.

Whistleblower Testimonies:

• • David Grusch's Revelations: In 2023, David Grusch, a former United States Air Force officer and intelligence official, became a notable figure after his interviews and testimony before Congress. He detailed his experiences and knowledge regarding UAPs, contributing to the ongoing debate and public interest in the topic [[4†source]].

  • Allegations and Skepticism: Grusch's testimony included startling allegations about the US government's knowledge and handling of UFOs. Despite the explosive nature of his claims, there were lingering doubts over some of the key testimonies provided during the hearings, underscoring the complex challenge of discerning the truth in the realm of UAP research.

Impact of Testimonies

• • Non-human 'Biologics' Claims: Among the most intriguing claims discussed in the hearings were those related to the recovery of non-human 'biologics' from UFO crash sites. This testimony came not only from Grusch but also from other military veterans, adding layers of complexity to the congressional inquiry into UAPs.

Analysis and Perception:

• • Despite the heightened media and public attention resulting from these hearings and testimonies, analysts noted that the whistleblower revelations did not fundamentally alter the basic understanding of UFOs. The events of 2023, however, did underscore the growing demand for transparency and systematic investigation into UAPs from both the government and the public.
