In 2020, something astonishing happened—something that had been relegated to the fringe for decades.
The Pentagon officially confirmed that three leaked videos showing Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs)—what most of us call UFOs—were, in fact, real. Not only that, but they admitted they had no explanation for these objects. These weren’t weather balloons, experimental military tech, or advanced enemy aircraft. They were unexplained.
Even more groundbreaking is that the U.S. military, historically silent on this topic, acknowledged that it simply didn’t know what these objects were. For years, UFOs were the stuff of sci-fi, conspiracy theories, and late-night radio shows. But this public admission represented a seismic shift toward transparency—a movement away from secrecy and honest public discourse on a topic long ridiculed.
UFOs Aren’t Just Science Fiction Anymore
For most people, UFOs have always been a joke—something you laughed about in barbershops or debated in online forums filled with memes. But the Pentagon’s 2020 statement flipped that narrative upside down. These were no longer just strange sightings reported by civilians in remote areas or urban legends about lights in the sky. These were objects tracked by some of the most sophisticated sensors on the planet, maneuvering in ways that defy conventional physics.
Here’s what to do next: Stop thinking about UFOs in the way movies portray them. They’re not here for entertainment. These objects—whatever they are—are real, physical, and potentially represent technology far beyond anything we currently understand. Start following credible sources, not just the latest YouTube conspiracy theory. Sites like The New York Times and The Guardian have been at the forefront of this serious reporting.
These Aren’t Russian or Chinese Tech—They’re Unexplainable
In their statement, the Pentagon was clear: these UAPs weren’t American, and they weren’t foreign. That’s a big deal. The first instinct might be to assume that these are advanced Chinese or Russian drones or aircraft. But here’s the kicker: U.S. military and intelligence agencies have ruled that out. The technology in the UAP videos goes beyond anything currently known, even in black-budget military projects.
Imagine watching an object accelerate from zero to thousands of miles per hour in a split second, then execute sharp, right-angle turns at speeds that would turn a human pilot into jelly. This isn’t just a leap in tech; it’s an entirely new paradigm.
To get started, here are three simple steps to better understand this:
- Research advanced propulsion systems. Understanding what’s physically possible with our current tech will help you appreciate just how far these UAPs exceed human capability.
- Look into international treaties on aerospace technology. It’s helpful to understand how world powers share (and hide) advancements in this field.
- Check out documentaries featuring military experts like Luis Elizondo, who brought these videos to light.
Why This Shift Toward Transparency Matters
For decades, UFOs were stigmatized. Mentioning them at a dinner party could easily earn you an eye roll or an awkward change in conversation. That’s what makes the Pentagon’s 2020 admission so significant—it effectively ended the debate about whether these sightings were legitimate. The military’s admission forces us to move from “Are they real?” to “What are they?”
This isn’t just a change in how the public perceives UFOs—it’s a fundamental shift in how governments handle information that challenges their own understanding of reality. For years, secrecy and ridicule kept the public in the dark. Now, with evidence out in the open, it’s time to take these sightings seriously.
Here’s what you need to know: If the government openly admits they don’t know what these crafts are, it’s time for the rest of us to catch up. Whether through podcasts, books, or documentaries, start educating yourself on what’s now public knowledge. Ignorance won’t cut it anymore.
Unexplained, Not Ignored
The Pentagon could have easily dismissed these UAP videos, saying, “It’s nothing,” and moved on. But it didn’t. By publicly confirming their authenticity, it acknowledged that the world’s most advanced military is being visited by objects it can’t explain. That’s huge.
For years, any report of a UFO was chalked up to overactive imaginations or hoaxes. But these videos are different. They come from trained U.S. Navy pilots—people who understand how objects behave in the air. The footage wasn’t captured by amateur photographers but by some of the most advanced tracking and sensing equipment available. In short, these aren’t anomalies that can be ignored or laughed off anymore.
Here’s a concrete action: Start by watching the official videos. The three declassified videos are named Gimbal, FLIR1, and Go Fast. These are readily available on YouTube from credible channels. See the phenomena for yourself and try to wrap your head around the fact that these movements, speeds, and maneuvers are impossible based on what we know.
How You Can Start Thinking About UAPs Differently
The problem with UFOs has always been their reputation. For most people, UFOs are associated with conspiracy theorists, hoaxes, or exaggerated claims. But when the Pentagon confirmed these three UAP videos as real, it forced us to rethink everything we thought we knew about the subject. This is no longer fringe territory. We’re talking about credible military reports and irrefutable evidence.
What can you do now? Start adjusting your mindset. Instead of seeing UFOs as something laughable, start thinking of them as an advanced technology we don’t understand yet. The world’s top aerospace engineers have been scratching their heads over these sightings. If they’re baffled, it’s okay for you to be as well.
Moving Forward: A Template for Your Own Investigation
So, how can you apply all this information to your life? It's simple: Start by doing your homework.
Here’s a three-step process to get started:
- Educate yourself: Pick up books or watch documentaries by experts in the field. Start with titles like UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go on the Record by Leslie Kean, or listen to credible podcasts like The UFO Rabbit Hole.
- Join the conversation: You don’t need to be an expert to have an opinion. Start discussing these revelations with others. Bring up the Pentagon’s admission at your next dinner party—see where the conversation goes.
- Stay skeptical but open-minded: Not every sighting is a UFO, but the Pentagon has shown that some are. Keep an open mind, but always ask for evidence.
The game has changed, and it’s time for all of us to catch up. If the Pentagon says UFOs are real, we can’t afford to ignore them anymore.
