during the hearing several legislators emphasized that the reason for this session is to end the stigma on this subject so that the military inform their superiors when they encounter a phenomenon of this type.

Moultry highlighted that in fiscal year 2022 (which began last October) the Department of Defense has created an office to oversee the collection, processing, and analysis of any UFO encounters or phenomena of this type that are not always objects.

For his part, the deputy director of US Naval Intelligence, Scott Bray, recalled an official report published in June stating that sBetween 2004 and 2021, a total of 144 unidentified phenomena had been detected, adding that this figure had risen to 400.

Bray explained that the reason for this increase is because the soldiers have begun to report more of this type of phenomenon., thanks to the work that is being done to end the stigma; the rise of systems like drones in US airspace; and the improvement of sensors and radars to detect them.

Bray noted that such events are likely to fall into categories such as radar jamming, natural weather events, US government or industry development programs, or foreign adversary systems.

“And there is another box that allows us to put difficult cases, and the possibility of surprises and potential scientific discoveries,” he said.
