    Seems like this was just after a radar software update.

    Are you saying a radar software upgrade affected a video?

    LOL. I didn't read in the link about any software upgrade. They did say that they shut it down and checked for bugs AFTER it was making hits on a UFO. Even after that they were still getting hits. Oh, and that was on a surface ship. So I guess I can see where this could affect the camera system on an F-14.

    Tortured logic. Lame.

    You can argue about what they saw, but not about seeing it. Hits on most sophisticated radar. Visual sightings from ship and aircraft of multiple objects. Expert witnesses attesting to all of it.

    Had it been software, it would have been rooted caused and corrected. Nope. Wouldn’t explain visual and camera sightings either. Not first time nor last.

    Navy has finally acknowledged.

    Something out there.

    Oh, okay...I'm still betting on Atlantians rather than space people...

    Aristotle (and many others), believed that Plato had invented the island of Atlantis in order to teach philosophy.

    Not much different than invoking other worldly beings to explain any oddity that defies explanation.

    Swamp gas and weather balloons worked in the past.

    I believe he's talking about the Theodore Roosevelt incidents on the east coast. After the F/A-18 radars were upgraded, they started tracking UFOs. I don't think it was a glitch in the new radars, but rather the ability of the UFOs to spoof the old radars. The NY Times wrote an article on it earlier this year.

    Just adding to this conversation. :)

    Pentagon releases three Navy videos showing UFOs - Stars & Stripes (Apr 27, 2020)

    The Pentagon released the videos “to clear up any misconceptions by the public on whether or not the footage that has been circulating was real, or whether or not there is more to the videos,” spokesperson Sue Gough said. “The aerial phenomena observed in the videos remain characterized as ‘unidentified.’”​
