…vo, Utah, on February 22, 2023. The pilot observed afterburners making lateral movements, indicating unusual flight behavior, but the event was not captured on radar by Air Traffic Control.

…tiple aircraft reported observing two white lights circling each other near Salina, Kansas, while operating at high altitudes. The UAP were not detected by ATC radar systems.

…itude near Lamar, Colorado. The lights were also seen by another aircraft, American 2514, but were not detected on TCAS, although they appeared on ATC facility radar.

On February 19, 2024, a pilot reported multiple lights moving and circling at high altitude near Chicago-Rockford, IL. The UAP was not detected on ATC radar.

The AARO presentation for NASA outlines the UAP mission and reporting trends from 1996 to 2023, detailing UAP characteristics, performance signatures, and recommendations for collaboration between AARO and NASA in UAP detection and analysis.

The document appears to be a technical report or log related to radar data, possibly from a military or aviation context, dated November 18, 1945. It contains a series of time-stamped entries with numerical data, likely indicating radar readings or telemetry information.

This document contains a series of time-stamped radar data readings, likely related to aircraft tracking. The data includes various parameters such as altitude, heading, speed, and other metrics that are typically used in aviation and radar operations.

This memorandum from the Federal Aviation Administration discusses the radar split image phenomenon observed during JAL flight 1628 on November 17, 1986. It acknowledges the interpretation provided by the Alaskan Region Air Traffic Division and includes an analysis of uncorrelated primary and beacon targets.

The document discusses inquiries into UFO sightings, particularly focusing on the work of Richard Haines, a scientist at NASA, who investigates pilot sightings. Haines has documented numerous unexplained cases, including a notable sighting by Captain Terauchi. The document also mentions skepticism from Philip Klass, who proposes that the sightings could be e…

Captain Terauchi of Japan Airlines Flight #628 reported sightings of unusual lights while flying over Alaska on January 11, 1987. The lights appeared at different positions relative to the aircraft and were later attributed to village lights obscured by atmospheric conditions.
