The term “flying saucer” dated back to the 1947 sighting by Kenneth Arnold. He saw unusual craft flying near Mt. Rainier in Washington state and contacted the local media. He described their motion as being like saucers on water. It was the reporters who called them “flying saucers” and the name stuck.

This article has some more detail:

Any advanced alien species would have mastered nanotechnology and therefore would be able to disguise data collecting avatars as molecules within any environment.

They could collect any information they want any time they want.

NASA could be hip deep in the alien avatars and not know anything about it.

--- "NASA admits they can't identify mysterious flying objects, appoints first UFO director"

So "unidentified" means "unidentified." Who knew?

Mandriod-A leaves his planet in his spaceship. He travels at light speeds, avoids hitting grain of sand size particles and meteors, avoids black holes, compensates for gravity, feeds himself, hydrates himself, finds planet Earth, de-celerates to approach speed, somehow avoids burning up entering our atmosphere, dodges military jets, comes to a quiet patch in a corn field, and needs to turn on a hundred bright lights at the last minute to see where he's going?

Really?

The government doesn’t create such a position without fully intending the role to “find” and announce UFOs.

I'm afraid you are incorrect. At least, so far.

The Department of Defense already has an office to solve the mystery of UFOs. The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) has done nothing but stall, obfuscate, slam doors and lock files, discredit whistleblowers, and refuse to cooperate with anyone, including Congress.

Civilians investigating UFOs have almost unanimously concluded that nothing will be forthcoming from the government on the subject of UFOs.

That's what makes the accusation of "distraction" so lazy. The government has done nothing but lie about and cover-up what they know for over 70 years.

Before he became indoctrinated into the NASA culture, Administrator Bill Nelson gave some stunningly open interviews on what he thought UFOs were (implying that whatever they were, they were not ours and they were something really strange).

But then, after getting with the program (or being slapped down by the USAF), he clammed up.

See this old article:

NASA chief Bill Nelson latest official to suggest UFOs have otherworldly origins

It’s all a matter of timing. They’re waiting for yet one more scaring of the public into global government.

The dodging and obfuscating, then sending out a fake “whistleblower” on this, is just keeping the ploy alive and plumped for its eventual full use.

If their infrared trackers are locking on shouldn’t a sidewinder missile as well?

Whatever we find, we’re going to tell you.

Uh huh. Sort of like they turned the color calibrated monitor on the first Mars landing up to maximum red so the blue skies and green algae would disappear?

Or like when the ground off what looked like a fossil to see what was inside a rock?

Or like all the mis-catalogued, missing, destroyed, altered Apollo Hasselbad images?

Or like showing us 10th or 15th generation images while claiming they are as good as the originals?

ETC.

You may be correct, but that's a very circuitous route for the government--known for its incompetence--and the odds are very small.

That's the extreme opposite of Ockham's Razor.

It's much more likely that the government is covering something up. Something big...and real.

It is quite difficult to identify something that doesn’t actually exist.

Ah, no.

And that’s not how the government works.

BTW, it's just as possible that the government doesn't want this UFO thing to come to light (whatever it is) because they think it might get in the way of their socialist takeover of the country.

That would explain why they have threatened whistleblowers with harm. And from what the whistleblowers are saying, these threats of harm are not just threats...the government has indeed harmed, perhaps even murdered, some whistleblowers.

What’s this? We’ve directors now? Where are our Czars?
Czars among the stars. That’s the ticket.

Why do these UFOs have lights? WTP often wonder about that.
No better way to read a map?

They’ve already got to you with their propaganda and you just can’t not believe.

Have you seen their declassified doc from the 50s where they talked about making up some lie about flying saucers or sextuplets in a remote country to distract the public?
