== What does UAP mean? ==

UAP stands for '''Unidentified Aerial Phenomena'''.

[[UFO]] stands for '''Unidentified Flying Object'''.

Many experts in the field found [[UFO]] was being ridiculed and reports were not being taken seriously.

It's thought UAP is a more professional term and it's becoming increasingly more common as the US begins to seriously discuss UFO/UAP sightings.

The United States [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] now has a [[Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force]] ([[UAPTF]]) program.

It collects reported sightings of mysterious flying objects.

UAP doesn't necessarily have to refer to a suspected 'alien craft' sighting.

Some people think using the term UAP will get sightings taken more seriously.

It's thought over 90% of UFO sightings have a reasonable explanation

However, recent footage released by the pentagon of strange flying objects is still baffling experts.
