UFOs once again dominated the spotlight in Washington D.C. on Tuesday, as the U.S. Senate conducted a hearing to try and explain away some sightings. However, questions were raised about at least one unsolved close-encounter.

The Senate hearing is a follow-up to last week’s U.S. House of Representatives hearings that alluded a number of provocative images of satellites never before seen in public.

Under the leadership of New York Senator Kirsten Gillianbrand, the Emerging Threats and Capabilities Committee of the Armed Services Committee discussed the work of AARO. This new office was established by Congress 2022 for the Department of Defense to investigate unexplained strange phenomena.

The AARO Director Jon T. Kosloski testified before the committee that, while there are cases yet to be investigated, others, such as the 2015 “Go Fast” The UFO sighting that a US Navy fighter recorded video of an object moving fast over the ocean near the Florida coastline may have, in part been an optical effect.

“Through a very careful geospatial intelligence analysis using trigonometry, we assess with high confidence that the app object is not actually close to the water, but is rather closer to 13,000 feet,” Kosloski said. “As the platform is flying and capturing the object, if it is closer to the platform at a higher altitude, a trick of the eye called parallax makes it look like the object is moving much faster.”

Kosloski stated that in another instance, lights that witnesses claimed were UAPs actually turned out to Starlink flares. Kosloski cited a case from 2013 in which a customs border patrol plane saw an object fly over an airport on Puerto Rico.

“We assess that the object, likely a pair of balloons or sky lanterns, was floating at about seven knots over the airport and descending to about 200 meters,” He added that the video footage of the incident, along with the report, would be released later this year.

Kosloski acknowledged that not every UAP sighting was so easy to explain.

“To be clear, AARO does not believe every object is a bird, a balloon, or a UAV,” He said. “We do have some very anomalous objects. It's just the nature of resolution. We can only resolve things that we understand.”

Kosloski told the committee that an unnamed officer of law enforcement reported seeing a UAP about the size and shape of a midsize vehicle, which he called “a”. “blacker-than-black” object.

“He said it was about the size of a Prius, four to six feet wide. And as he got 40 to 60 meters away from the object, it tilted up about 45 degrees, and then it shot up vertically, 10 to 100 times faster than any drone he's ever seen before,” Kosloski is recalled. “It did that without making a sound, as far as he could tell from inside of his vehicle.”

Kosloski stated that the witness testified that as soon as the UAP was out of sight through the windshield, it began to emit bright blue and red lights that lit up the interior of the vehicle. “as brightly as if someone had set off fireworks just outside his vehicle, or street flares.” Kosloski has not stated when the incident happened.

Kosloski says that AARO is developing new technology to allow it to notify the public, Congress and other stakeholders of UAPs during their study, not just after they are resolved.

The Senate hearing on UAPs coincides political shifts in Washington. Representative Tim Burchett has called on President elect Donald Trump to put transparency at the forefront of UAP investigations.

“This isn’t all about finding little green men or flying saucers,” Burchett wrote. “It’s about forcing federal bureaucracies like the Pentagon to be transparent with the American people.”

The Senate and the House were adamant, however, that the hearings will continue, and asked witnesses to keep coming forward.

“When unidentified anomalous phenomenon enter our airspace, we need to know about it. We need to identify it. But in order to do that, we need to reduce the stigma and credibility challenges associated with these events,” Gillibrand said.

“Our service members, scientists, foreign partners, and the general public need to know that their reporting, research, and analysis will be taken seriously and acted on in good faith.”
