What Article 3 of the 1971 nuclear risk-reduction treaty says — and why Coulthart called it SALT

A 1971 U.S.–Soviet risk-reduction agreement requires both sides to notify each other of "unidentified objects" detected by missile warning systems. The clause is not in SALT I or SALT II. Coulthart cited it as a SALT provision in a NewsNation segment on July 26, 2026. Grusch cited it in 2023, Luna cited it in the same year, and Elizondo cited it in his 2024 book. Here is the original text, the chronology that explains the SALT mislabel, and what the language does and does not establish.

Ning Li: the anti-gravity physicist the internet says vanished

She was born in Shandong, graduated from Peking University, emigrated in 1983, and ended up running AC Gravity LLC on a $448,970 DoD contract. The 2008 rumor that sent her to China turned out to be wrong. The papers, the grant, the accident, her husband's death, and the son who finally told the story are all real. What is still missing is the classified work she was doing for almost twenty years.
