Navy Acknowledges Three Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Videos, Signaling a Broader Inquiry and Reduced Stigma in Reporting

To the point

Three Navy videos—one from 2004 off San Diego captured by F-18s, one from 2015 showing a rotating aerial object, and a third released by Tom DeLonge’s To The Stars Academy—are acknowledged as unidentified aerial phenomena, signaling a shift to investigating anything unknown in airspace and reducing reporting stigma while stopping short of claiming extraterrestrial origins and noting DeLonge’s push for official acknowledgment and a link to a 2017 New York Times article.
