The green triangles are airplanes that look like triangles because of the parallax effect from the camera. The blinking light gives it away. Also, the other triangles are stars. On top of all that, several people have reproduced the same footage using the same camera at night on planes.

The Drive highlighted the description of the craft as 'quadcopter style UAS' in reports released by the Navy.

But a senior staffer at a US defense contractor who is an expert in military technology told DailyMail.com they believed the craft that hovered above the Russell were 'much more advanced' than a traditional drone.

The contractor, who asked not to be named due to their job's sensitivity, said modified quadcopters can fly as high as 30,000ft but only for short periods.

'The best quadcopter battery lasts an hour or so,' the source said. 'Climbing four miles takes time, and once the vehicle reached that altitude it would struggle to maintain a fixed or slow-moving position over the ship as the wind speed increased.'

Footage of a radar screen detecting a swarm over the USS Omaha in July 2019 shows nine drones moving up to 138 knots (more than 158 miles an hour) with winds of 31 knots.

'Maintaining position under such conditions would increase the energy burn and greatly limit the time on target to just a few minutes, especially considering the quadcopter has to return to its point of origin. In addition, the reports mentioned the vehicle was illuminated, further increasing its power drain,' the defense contractor added.

The military tech expert said top quadcopters have a maximum range of about seven miles, meaning their launch site would have to be near the warships.

'The vessel would have been easily detected as well as the launch of the quadcopter,' they said.

'Considering these limitations, I don't think the illuminated vehicle that hovered four miles above the ship for a prolonged period could have been a traditional quadcopter. They just don't have the range or the staying power. It had to be a much more advanced aircraft.'

House votes to make it easier to report UFOs

By Bryan Bender and Lawrence Ukenye - Yesterday 4:16 PM

---

---

The House on Wednesday voted to create a secure government system for reporting UFOs and to compel current and former officials to reveal what they might know about the mysterious phenomena by promising to protect them from reprisal.

The bipartisan amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act, passed by voice vote without debate, is part of an aggressive effort to exert more oversight over an enduring intelligence-gathering challenge that has gained more attention in recent years.

It was proposed by Reps. Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.) and Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.), who have been among a vocal bipartisan bloc of lawmakers pressing Pentagon and intelligence officials to take the issue more seriously — and to be more transparent with Congress and the American people.

Luis Elizondo, the former Pentagon official who went public in 2017 asserting a lack of concern among top leaders, called the Gallagher-Gallego amendment “one of the greatest efforts in recent history to foster transparency on this topic.”

“This legislation may open the floodgates,” added Elizondo, who is now a consultant to the U.S. Space Command on UAP.

Revisiting 1947: The Inside Story On New Congressional Language Which Could Reshape History

---

New proposed Congressional language featured within the latest versions of the National Defense Authorization Act and Intelligence Authorization Act are on course to prise open a Pandora’s Box of U.S. government and contractor UFO secrets, a box slammed firmly shut since 1947. Getting to this moment has not been straightforward though. Frustrated by obfuscation, Congress’s hand has been forced to escalate efforts.

Speaking to Liberation Times, Lue Elizondo, the former Director of the Pentagon's previous UAP investigation named AATIP, attributed bipartisan efforts and Christopher Mellon, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, as major factors behind new Congressional language.

One source has told Liberation Times, “behind closed doors, lawmakers have met with current and former government insiders who have provided multi-source and verifiable information that has shaped the language we are seeing today.” Notably, something appears to have escaped Pandora’s Box, forcing politicians to contemplate the repercussions of a moment akin to the Church Commission of 1975. Decisions of what and when to reveal to the public will be at the discretion of Congress, the Executive Branch, international allies and partners, and will mean existing political agendas will be turned upside down.

Despite the bullish atmosphere surrounding the new language, concerns remain regarding the potential future role of the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security (OUSD(I&S)), which was home to the failed Airborne Object Identification and Management Synchronization Group. Sources believe the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) would be a more effective option for heading a UAP Office. Liberation Times can also now confirm through various sources that Elizondo is a contractor for the Space Force.

First came the Gallagher and Gallego House amendments for the National Defense Authorization Act 2023 (NDAA) establishing proposed immunity language, providing protection to Unidentified Aerospace-Undersea Phenomena (UAP) whistleblowers.

Notably, something appears to have escaped Pandora’s Box, forcing politicians to contemplate the repercussions of a moment akin to the Church Commission of 1975, which led to the very creation of the same Senate Select Committee on Intelligence that helped draft the current IAA language.

Back in 1975, U.S. government reforms were prompted by abuses of power from U.S. intelligence agencies, leading to shocking revelations such as Operation MKULTRA, involving the drugging and torture of U.S. citizens.

It may be inevitable that the potential discovery of alleged secretive and illegal UAP programs could lead to similar significant reforms within the U.S. government.

If proven, it is likely such programs date back decades.

This would account for the current phenomena in the sky messing with militaries and nukes. It is not necessarily a nation state in control of these things. I find this a fascinating perspective to consider.

The Senate’s Intelligence Committee Criticises Pentagon As UFOs ‘Exponentially’ Increase, Whilst Making Clear That New Office Will Not Investigate ‘Man-Made’ Objects

Of significance, as stated in the explanatory report is the ‘elimination of cap on compensatory damages for retaliatory revocation of security clearances and access determinations.’ The cap currently stands at $300,000 and the language will cover serving and former serving employees. Therefore, the risk of taking action against employees may outweigh any meaningful positives by employers.

Reacting to the Report, former Director of AATIP and current Space Force contractor, Lue Elizondo, stated:

"Our Senators, Representatives and their staff who proposed this language should be commended. This historic bill serves the best interests of the American people and should be an indicator of the level of commitment and resolve these Congress persons have.

“Let this be a warning shot to those in the Pentagon who remain defiant against the will of the American people. The time has arrived for truth and reconciliation and for those who remain obstinate, let it be known you are on notice."

The formal DoD and Intelligence Community definition of the terms used by the Office shall be updated to include space and undersea, and the scope of the Office shall be inclusive of those additional domains with focus on addressing technology surprise and ``unknown unknowns.''’

The Report goes on to state that, ‘temporary nonattributed objects, or those that are positively identified as man-made after analysis, will be passed to appropriate offices and should not be considered under the definition as unidentified aerospace-undersea phenomena.’

This is a significant revelation and in effect states that the UAP Office will not be investigating man-made craft, and will instead investigate unknown phenomena, which are not attributable to any nation or non-state actor.
