Regularly linked to alien-occupied flying saucers that have stopovers on Earth from the outer reaches of deep space is an equally puzzling enigma: Unidentified anomalous phenomena, or UAP, a new term that encompasses objects that can't immediately be identified that are detected in the sky, under water or in space or that appear to travel between these domains.
There have been several attempts since the 1950s to use specialized sensors to identify UAP, said Robert Maxwell, Executive Board Member of the."The problem has always been the unlikelihood of having a UAP show up where your high quality sensors happen to be located." The goal is to automate the identification process and check whether objects are natural , human-made , Loeb said,"or something from beyond Earth.". He notes that the Defense Department has used a wide variety of sensors to detect UAP in different circumstances, including electro-optical , infrared, and radar.
"So, in order to sift through all the chatter, the military establishes filters, akin to when a person searches for a used car online, effectively saying: 'Only show me things that meet this criterion.' It takes a mountain of data and turns it into a pretty large pile, and then people are stuck pouring over that pile to look for threats or issues," said Hollings.
Similarly, AI might eventually be able to detect stealth aircraft using existing radar arrays by just filtering the chatter — perhaps a capability useful to detect UAP to cull out a trend or pattern associated with them. An illustration of the U.S. Navy's laser-induced plasma filament patent, which can create a plasma-based decoy flare by using a laser source in order to counter surface-to-air and/or air-to-air missiles."Such a hologram would be capable of incredible speeds and maneuvers that seem to defy physics, may not produce a radar return, and could potentially be very convincing," said Hollings.
