    How is the GIMBAL video still listed as "unresolved"? Mick West's analysis seems to explain it pretty thoroughly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsEjV8DdSbs

    At the very least I would have hoped that there would be more than just a link to the video, and a section saying that some convincing explanations have been proposed. Right now it looks like on the first day it was released, as if this case was still just as mysterious.

    My mind instantly went to the show "Ghosted" where Craig Robinson and Adam Scott worked at "The Bureau Underground" investigating unexplained phenomena (ghosts, aliens, cryptids).

    Got a good laugh out of the line "committed to transparency". I'd hope so but I'm not counting on it

    If you are interested in this stuff, you may also want to check out an Apple TV show called Invasion. Season 2 just started. I think overall the beginning episodes were better though. It was really engaging.

    What are people's top guesses that this turns out to be?

    My guesses are:

    (1) Chinese surveillance balloons (as was in the news a lot earlier this year)

    (2) Chinese military/surveillance UAVs

    > A mechanism for members of the general public to make reports will be announced in coming months.

    Anyone know who's hiring for this program and whether I can be an investigator? I'd love to be the one who pours through piles of looney reports of UFO activity, looking for any sign of intelligence.

    Anomalies like civilian collateral damage, friendly fire, excessive costs, or environmental problems surrounding military bases?

    No, some shit about UFOs. "Hey look, something shiny!"

    I thought the Grusch news a few months back was going to be... something, but it hasn't been.

    All we get (if you peruse the UFOs subreddit at least, or twitter) is people like george knapf and the other dude that makes the documentaries like skyranch, everyday saying stuff like "My source in DOD says BIG intel drop coming VERY SOON.". They literally say that stuff everyday. It's getting to QAnon levels of ridiculous.

    BTW though I want to believe. LLAP.

    Legit whistle blower site, or Honeypot?

    So this is the communication branch of the SCP Foundation. Good to know that everything is under Control.

    Is this a UFO investigations office???

    I know what I want to be when I grow up…
