U.S. Navy (NBC) (08/03/20) — Is it vindication at last? The New York Times has recently reported that a supposedly canceled Pentagon project to investigate strange aerial phenomena is still showing a pulse.
The clandestine effort, originally known as the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, was said to have ended in 2012. But, apparently, it's still doing its thing under the auspices of the U.S. Office of Naval Intelligence, and with a new name: the Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon Task Force.

UFO sightings in North America jumped to nearly 6,000 in 2019 - ABC News
There was a rise in the number of North Americans who looked up into the sky in 2019 and found something that didn't look like a bird or a plane.
Peter Davenport, who runs the independent organization that's based in Davenport, Washington, said he couldn't explain why more people called about seeing flashing white lights, fireballs, disc-shaped objects or other oddities in 2019.
"One of the mysteries of ufology is there is a fluctuation in the number of reports over the years," he told ABC News in a phone interview. "Some years it's been low, but it's gotten higher recently."
Navy confirms videos did capture UFO sightings, but it calls them by another name
Three videos posted online that have been described as being related to UFO sightings do indeed include footage of "unidentified aerial phenomena," a U.S. Navy spokesman confirmed.
But as for specifics, spokesman Joseph Gradisher said the Navy doesn't know exactly what the objects are.

The website The Black Vault last week first reported the Navy's "unidentified aerial phenomena" designation and said the three videos are commonly known as "FLIR1," "Gimbal" and "GoFast."

The UFO Sightings that Pushed the UK to Take 'Flying Saucers' More Seriously - HISTORY
In late September 1952, only months after a rash of “flying saucer” sightings over Washington, D.C. made headlines around the world, dozens of military officers participating in NATO exercises in the North Atlantic were struck by their own UFO fever.
Exercise Mainbrace was the largest peacetime military exercise since World War II . The war-game-style maneuvers simulated NATO’s response to a mock attack on Europe, presumably by the Soviet Union . The Mainbrace operation involved 200 ships, 1,000 planes and 80,000 soldiers from multiple NATO countries—including large deployments from the United States and the United Kingdom.
The 5 Most Credible Modern UFO Sightings - HISTORY
In 2017, several news organizations revealed the existence of the Advanced Aviation Threat Identification Program (AATIP), a U.S. government-funded program that investigated unidentified flying objects between 2007 and 2012. This secret $22 million program, however, was not the first of its kind. Official government UFO studies began in the late 1940s with Project Sign , providing some of the most credible videos of aerial phenomena to date.
