UFOS INVADING MILITARY AIRSPACE MULTIPLE TIMES PER MONTH, BUT PUBLIC WON'T BE TOLD MORE
BY ANDREW WHALEN
Newsweek, May 1, 2019
Since 2014, UFOs have intruded upon military airspace as often as several times per month, a military official told the Washington Post. In a follow-up published by the Post on Monday, the same official said that the U.S. Navy will not share any more information regarding what they call "unexplained aerial phenomena" with the public, despite drafting formal procedures to document UFO sightings on an ongoing basis.
"There have been a number of reports of unauthorized and/or unidentified aircraft entering various military-controlled ranges and designated air spaces in recent years," the Navy said in a statement released to Politico, who first reported on the new approach. "The Navy is updating and formalizing the process by which reports of any such suspected incursions can be made to the cognizant authorities. A new message to the fleet that will detail the steps for reporting is in drafts."
Snip...
But while the Navy plans to keep its UFO sightings out of the public eye, the politician who helped fund the Pentagon's shuttered UFO program, the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), says UFO sightings are far more common in military circles than previously revealed.
Speaking with CBS affiliate KLAS in Las Vegas, former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid described widespread sightings on military bases. "You can't just hide your head and say these things are not happening," Reid, who has previously described a UFO arms race between the United States and competing countries, told the I-Team's George Knapp. "We have military installations where hundreds and hundreds of people who are there see these things."

No heat signature, no exhaust trail, no wings, no fins. Unidentified indeed.

I will agree with you when the space shuttle can launch and immediately stop and hover.
