There’s nothing stupid about considering every aspect. That’s literally a part of the intelligence process. You consider every possibility and gauge plausibility and probability.

Our bases, all over the world, are apparently under the threat of a dirty bomb attack.

There were drones sighted over Eastern Colorado for a long time, I am positive these are ours.

We've had a President By Committee situation for the last year or 2 at least. The MIC is running its part of the government and they aren't really known for being honest with the public, or Congress. I see 4 possibilities, in order of likelihood:

1) This is some sort of psyop. It could be aimed at us, our adversaries, or both.
2) There is a credible threat that they are searching for with new surveillance platforms, and "Drones, what drones, those are weather balloons" is the expected answer when it comes to our above top secret tech platforms.


3) This is part of America's "Iron Dome". Basically Putin flexed his tech with the no warhead Hypersonic missiles fired at Ukraine a few weeks ago and the US is flexing back saying we have tech to detect and intercept your missiles.


4) Our alien overlords are returning to lay claim to us.

Then, I would counter with a question I asked earlier. If we're under a legitimate threat of a dirty bomb attack, why are they only searching for it at night? I don't think I've seen a single daytime video of an alleged sighting. Per that tweet these things are pretty damn big and fly fairly low, they'd be visible during daytime hours, especially with all the attention they've been getting. They're cutting ten or eleven hours of search time out by flying only at night.

Video shows these drones having external lighting. If the benefit of doing this at night is to avoid being seen, what’s up with the “hey look at me” lighting?

Interesting. Self identified military grade drone SME. Worth a listen.

That was the second part of a similar comment I made in this thread. If the reasoning for being nighttime missions is "secrecy", they've done a shite job of that.

Eventually the govt will tell us something and when they do, it will be a lie.

I still can't imagine this being Russia/China/Iran and there being zero engagement. This is either some other player entering the game with super advanced tech, or it's a psyop with our own craft. It could be to fake a threat to get legislation passed as we've already brought up, I've also seen theories floated that the entire purpose of the disclosure effort starting with that NYT article in 2017 was to muddy the water with aliens so the US could roll out its UFOs without it being clear they are ours.

Dumb question maybe, but......how does a civilian get the ATC recordings?

ETA:
Nevermind, I see this did come out via the base:

quote:

Bob Purtiman, Chief of Public Affairs said the airspace was blocked for around four hours late Friday night into early Saturday.

Units are monitoring the airspace for the drones, called ‘small unmanned aerial systems’ by Purtiman.

“To date, installation leadership has determined none of the incursions impacted base residents, facilities or assets,” Purtiman said.
