The Pentagon has announced the establishment of a task force to review “unexplained aerial phenomena,” or UFOs, that have been observed by the U.S. military, according to a Pentagon statement.
The move continues an effort begun in recent years to investigate incidents in which the U.S. military has encountered such phenomena, including those captured on Navy fighter videos that the Pentagon declassified in April.
The new Defense Department task force will investigate incidents of unexplained aerial phenomena encountered by the U.S. military, whether it be by pilots or other means.
“On Aug. 4, 2020, Deputy Secretary of Defense David L. Norquist approved the establishment of an Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) Task Force (UAPTF),” said the Pentagon statement.
“The Department of Defense established the UAPTF to improve its understanding of, and gain insight into, the nature and origins of UAPs, it continued. “The mission of the task force is to detect, analyze and catalog UAPs that could potentially pose a threat to U.S. national security.” (abcnews.go.com)
