UFO hotspot MAP: Pentagon’s AARO releases sightings map as world needs to ‘recognise the truth’

During his conversation, Patrick asked: “Is there any insinuation to when you were working at, at the MOD or from what you’ve managed to glean out of Congress at the moment as to where or why some of these sightings are taking place?

“Some people make reference to them above volcanoes. Some people make reference to them above nuclear sites, and some people say that there’s some kind of military element to it. They’re fascinated by that aspect.

“But the nuclear connection is interesting and concerning and again, Congress is investigating that as we speak.”

The report from AARO sheds some light on multiple aspects of UFO (sometimes referred to as UAPs) sightings, including their most common locations and their physical appearance.

According to the data, the most common locations for UFO sightings in the US are on the West coast, in and around California, as well as in the South-East around Florida, Georgia and other neighbouring states.

Meanwhile in the rest of the world, the most common reported sightings were in the Middle East, as well as in Eastern China and Japan.

Similarly, the report gives details on what witnesses saw. Typically these unexplained objects were around 1-4 metres in length and round in shape.

Reports varied with claims that UFOs shaped as ovals, cylinders, discs and even tic-tacs had all been sighted.

Most reports had the objects as translucent, white or silver in colour, with their speed anywhere from stationary up to Mach 2.

Finally, the objects’ altitudes varied wildly, with sightings as high as 60,000ft and as low as 5,000ft, though the most common altitude at which sightings occurred was near 20,000ft, around half to two thirds the height of a standard commercial aircraft.
