The U.S. government has now received more than 500 reports of UFOs, according to a declassified version of an annual report from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released on Thursday. Hundreds of UFOs, referred to as "unidentified aerial phenomena" (UAP) in the government report, have been reported since 2021 alone. According to the ODNI's preliminary assessment, there were 144 reports between November 2004 and March 2021. Since then, Thursday's report said, 366 additional reports have been received through August 2022 – including 247 new encounters and another 119 from before the original 2021 cutoff. That brings the total to 510 between late 2004 and mid-2022. #ufo
