Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Lacking Conventional Signatures: Instrumental Limitations and Physics-Driven Interpretations

Some reports of highly maneuverable unidentified aerial phenomena in the United States show objects moving at high speeds without the usual signs of interaction with the air, such as ionization, bright fireballs, radio signatures, or sonic booms. Researchers, including those from the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, note the lack of ionization shells, tails, or other expected signatures for fast-moving objects, and point to possible mundane explanations for these absences. Potential reasons include instrument insensitivity, inaccurate distance measurements from single-site sensors without range data, and limited resolvable imagery, which could make some sightings appear as sensor-induced optical illusions. The work is not yet peer-reviewed and does not address philosophical questions about intelligent life, but it aims to refine estimates of size, shape, and mass of unidentified objects by grounding interpretations in known physics.
