    But the US openly declared that they are eavesdropping on Iraq and Afghanistan. special agreement with both countries? or just blatantly spying and showing who's the boss?

    And today we have another issue with the Chinese sending things up, that end in "unscheduled descents"...

    The second stage part of the Chang Zheng 2D 'Long March' rocket, which was launched on June 23 2022, came down over the Lone Star State on Wednesday.

    Defense officials told USNI, which revealed the incident, that the segment disintegrated as it hurtled back to Earth at around 17,000 miles per hour.

    North American Aerospace Defense Command satellite tracking data indicated the piece of rocket had been in low Earth orbit before it made the 'unscheduled descent'.

    Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) noted that the co-authors are both highly respected in their fields. Kirkpatrick’s involvement in the academic paper demonstrates that the Pentagon is open to scientific debate of the origins of UFOs, an important signal to send to the academic world, experts said

    Gillibrand, who has urged DoD to study the UFO issue more seriously, also warned that Stigma against discussion of this topic can prevent the military from better understanding potential threats to our airspace or collection risks from our adversaries. De-stigmatizing and standardizing reporting is essential to characterizing what is in our airspace
