      We have many documented UAPs that have no explanation. That’s what he means by “real UAP.”

      “No evidence of aliens” is not scientist for “no” here because we do have an unexplainable thing that, in the set of plausible explanations, includes “aliens.” NASA is saying there is no proof it is alien, so the entire set of plausible unexplained reasons is still in play

      The way science works is we will slowly chip away at what that set contains.

      Now stop being a dick.

          Because UAPs represent everything from legitimate national security risks to funded programs with little or no oversight.

          You’re so bent out of shape with “NOT ALIENS OMG BRO” that you’re not seeing the real-world impact.

          You could just assume that actual, professional scientists know more than you do.

      It’s not “my term” you can find the meaning of real in the dictionary.
