Pentagon Developing Portable UFO Detection Kits

The Pentagon is seen from Air Force One as it flies over Washington, March 2, 2022. A new Pentagon study that examined reported sightings of UFOs over nearly the last century has found no evide

The U.S. military is actively exploring ways to potentially detect life beyond Earth by developing portable UFO detection kits. The Pentagon is investigating reports of unknown objects and has named these kits 'Gremlin.' These kits aim to enhance the military's ability to respond swiftly to Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) sightings and gather more accurate data.

The Pentagon's initiative is led by Timothy Phillips, the acting director of the Pentagon's UAP investigation office, AARO. Phillips explained that the portable UFO detection kits are being designed as deployable, configurable sensor suites that can be easily transported in pelican cases. These kits will utilize hyperspectral surveillance across the electromagnetic spectrum, ranging from ultraviolet waves to radio waves, to capture incidents that deviate from typical signatures of known objects.

While most conventional aircraft emit heat signatures due to their engines, many UAPs do not exhibit such characteristics, making them challenging to identify. The U.S. military is currently testing the Gremlin kits at a facility in Texas and plans to deploy them at national security sites, military bases, Navy ships, and other locations with high UAP sighting frequencies.

Despite the Pentagon's efforts, a recent report released today found no evidence of alien technology during the U.S. government's investigations into UAPs. The report attributes most sightings to ordinary objects, natural phenomena, or misidentifications. However, the report fails to explain the UAP sightings reported by military pilots who testified before Congress, leaving lingering questions about these unexplained phenomena.
