Topline: Washington lawmakers\\u2014but not President Trump\\u2014are abruptly taking reports of UFO sightings seriously, with senators \\u201dcoming out of the woodwork\\u201d to receive classified briefings, the result of a growing acknowledgment, destigmatization and revamped record-keeping of mysterious reports from U.S. Navy pilots.
\\u2022\\u201cI did have one very brief meeting on it,\\u201d the president said in an ABC News interview. \\u201cBut people are saying they\\u2019re seeing UFOs. Do I believe it? Not particularly.\\u201d
\\u2022The sightings were by members of the U.S. Navy. The mysterious aircraft were largely reported to be the same color and shape as white Tic-Tacs, emitted no exhaust or didn\\u2019t display visual evidence of having engines, and defied the laws of physics in both speed and flight duration.
\\u2022Such sightings have happened since the 1950s and \\u201960s, according to Politico, but more recent ones were reported to the Pentagon after it launched a new UFO reporting program in 2007.
\\u2022According to CNN, the Navy does not believe aliens have been flying around in U.S. airspace. But, \\u201c[f]or safety and security concerns, the Navy and the [Air Force] takes these reports very seriously and investigates each and every report,\\u201d the Navy said in a statement.
Key background: The U.S. Navy refers to a sighting as an \\u201cunidentified aerial phenomenon.\\u201d In April, the Navy updated their UFO reporting guidelines, which created a formal and destigmatizing process for service members. More recent sightings, like the Tic-Tac-shaped aircraft, were reported to the Pentagon, according to the New York Times, via the small, relatively obscure Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, which mostly shuttered in 2012 due to lack of funding. (Some classified parts continue to operate.) Senior astrophysicist Leon Golub told the Times that aliens being the cause was \\u201cunlikely\\u201d and that \\u201cmore mundane explanations,\\u201d like bugs in the Navy\\u2019s imaging software or aerial weather patterns, were more probable.
