    Every time I had seen it hit the fp when I still used Reddit, it was because some new ex-military person came out saying they had proof that the US government had aliens and alien craft… Only for it to be a big ol’ fat nothing burger.

      Remember when there was all those drones and everyone was convinced it was either a Russian invasion or aliens and then, nothing

        The aviation subs/communities pointed out how kind it was for aliens to use Federal Aviation Administration approved lights and lighting schemes. Really kind of them to build craft that follow US laws.

          The news also got obsessed over the fact that drones made of plastic don’t appear on radar.

            They worked out new scanning frequencies to find them. Same deal as the balloons that were sneaking in. Wonder whether they’ve already dismantled the gear for both, or is the military safe from the completely reasonable budget cuts?

        yeah, that was around the time that dji released its first commercial cargo drone…
