Dr. Michael Hesse, Vice Provost for Research and Innovation, US Naval Postgraduate School, clearly lays out why investigating UAP/UFOs is important and how it can and should be approached with scientific rigor. This is the foreword to a special UAP edition of CTX with several other interesting articles and interviews. "Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) represent a real and impactful domain-awareness challenge. They sit at the intersection of operational safety, emerging technology assessment, intelligence analysis, and scientific inquiry. Observations span air, maritime, space, and other operational environments. Some can be resolved through conventional explanations. Others remain unresolved—not because they defy physics, but because the information is incomplete, ambiguous, or insufficiently instrumented. Reducing uncertainty in this domain requires a systematic approach. It requires calibrated sensors, standardized data architectures, rigorous analytic processes, and a culture that prioritizes evidence. Above all, it requires the systematic application of proper scientific methodology Recent years have seen significant progress in reporting structures and institutional coordination. Yet, the following persistent gaps remain: inconsistent metadata standards, limited sensor fidelity, uneven analytic frameworks, and cultural hesitancy in reporting. These are solvable problems. They demand dedicated investment in sensing technologies, cross-domain data fusion, reproducible analysis pipelines, and related research grounded in physics, engineering, statistics, and operational analysis. This special issue of Combating Threats Exchange (CTX) is dedicated to strengthening that foundation. The objective is straightforward: bring scientific rigor to a problem set that has too often been characterized by fragmentation or speculation. Scientific inquiry—falsifiable hypotheses, calibrated measurement, uncertainty quantification, reproducibility—is the essential tool for further progress. At the US Naval Postgraduate School (NPS), through the Center on Combating Hybrid Threats and in close partnership with the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, we are building an interdisciplinary framework to integrate operational data with scientific analysis. This effort includes collaborative research agreements, advanced modeling and sensing studies, classified analytic work where required, targeted experimentation, specialized publication, and tailored academic offerings. We are also expanding communities of interest across service components, fleet commands, allied institutions, and research partners. NPS is uniquely positioned to contribute. As the Department of Defense’s graduate education and applied research institution, we operate at the nexus of theory and operational practice. Our faculty and students bring expertise in plasma physics, signal processing, aerospace engineering, data science, human systems integration, intelligence analysis, and policy. This cross-disciplinary environment is precisely what a multi-domain problem requires. For the US Navy in particular, persistent global presence across all domains makes domain awareness essential. Unresolved anomalies—if not properly characterized—can obscure sensor limitations, mask emerging technologies, or introduce operational risk. While most cases are likely attributable to conventional sources—natural phenomena, sensor artifacts, commercial systems, or foreign technologies—we cannot assume adequacy of explanation without rigorous analysis. Strategic surprise often exploits ambiguity. Only a systematic approach can reduce it. Equally important is the human dimension. Although progress has been made in normalizing UAP reporting, cultural reticence still exists. High-quality data begin with professional, stigma-free reporting channels supported by sound analytic feedback loops. Organizational behavior, cognitive bias, and decision science therefore matter as much as hardware and algorithms. This is not solely a government challenge. Observations may occur near critical infrastructure, maritime corridors, industrial sites, or populated areas. A credible framework requires collaboration across governmental agencies, academia, industry, and allied partners. Shared data standards, interoperable metadata architectures, joint analytic methodologies, and coordinated research efforts will accelerate learning and strengthen attribution capabilities. From my perspective as a physicist and former NASA research leader, the way forward is clear. Complex phenomena demand measurement. Measurement demands instrumentation. Instrumentation demands calibration. And analysis demands rigor. We must integrate operational awareness with the scientific method, close data gaps, quantify uncertainty, and progressively constrain the space of plausible explanations. UAP-related challenges are global. Our allies face similar observational ambiguities. Strengthened international cooperation—focused on shared sensing strategies, analytic standards, and coordinated research—will enhance collective domain awareness and strategic stability. This CTX special issue reflects a commitment to move the conversation from conjecture to disciplined inquiry. By embedding scientific methodology within operational frameworks, we strengthen safety, enhance attribution, and reinforce national and allied security in an increasingly complex technological environment.

Bitlight Wallet & RGB Faucet - Reclaim Permanently Reopened We are reopening the Reclaim process on a permanent basis. All anomalous asset data has been audited and consolidated, and a Reclaim queue has been established according to the amount of the affected assets. From now on, Reclaim processing will not interfere with Claim activities. Who should use Reclaim: 1) Users with corrupted wallets or Failed transfer receipts, as detailed in our prior notice. 2) Users who experienced asset loss and whose previous cases remain unresolved. Key points: - No fees are required for Reclaim; all associated costs are covered by Bitlight Labs. - Ensure your wallet has available UTXOs to receive assets. Eligibility is determined by the verified anomalies linked to your xpub or sender/recipient addresses. The Reclaim amount will match the original affected amount. If you believe you were affected but are not shown as eligible for Reclaim, submit the relevant details in our Telegram channel. We will investigate your case promptly and reconcile it against our records to confirm eligibility. We appreciate your patience and cooperation. Our support team remains available to assist throughout the process.

"UAP" is quickly becoming synonymous with "UFO", and inheriting the stigma that comes along with that. In this fascinating article, former AARO Science Advisor Dr. Randy Bostick suggests holding off even on the designation "UAP" and instead going with "Provisional UAP" (PUAP?) until it can be more clearly demonstrated to be unresolvable and actually anomalous. It's a good point. The vast majority of UFO/UAP reports are just distracting noise. If there's something interesting in there, then filtering out that noise would be very helpful. But I fear the terminology horse has already bolted. "UAP reporters (and anyone interested in or pursuing UAP research) should not feel obligated or allow themselves to be coerced into providing an immediate analysis of what they saw or what their instruments detected. For example, the assessment of a hot, fast-moving object should be left to validated analysis and not an initial description. The self-assessment by an observer that something is “weird” or exotic threatens to lead to the UFO supposition and a reluctance to report and the much-discussed reporting stigma. The focus should be on reporting the observable characteristics that led the observer to deem the object as hot or fast moving and on providing any associated oral, written, or instrumented data. This information provides the basis for scientific investigation; the reporter should be required only to report, not to provide the assessment. An approach to reducing the stigma of reporting is to use the term UAP in its proper context as an object that is literally unidentified and/or is behaving anomalously with no assumption of origin based on the initial sighting. To alleviate the implied association of UAPs with UFOs, the initial UAP report may be designated a “potential UAP,” indicating that data and information have been provided, but that further analysis is needed before concluding that it is truly unidentifiable or anomalous and why. This suggestion is analogous to a citizen reporting suspicious activity to law enforcement and letting those professionals investigate whether a crime is actually being committed and by whom. Perhaps the potential UAP ends up being identified as a balloon, drone, or something incredible, but that should not concern the observer making a report."
