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.

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.
Astrophysicist Eric Davis says former President George H.W. Bush privately confirmed a 1964 UFO landing at Holloman Air Force Base and was told he lacked the clearance to see the film. A 1974 TV documentary had already used the same story as a hypothetical.
A new Bennu study traces rare early-Solar-System minerals through NASA's returned asteroid material. Its findings point to dust moving outward and being filtered near proto-Jupiter.
Retired Army Colonel John B. Alexander remains a notable figure in the history of UAP research. Through military service, laboratory work, and later private research networks, he helped track where official interest in unidentified aerial phenomena actually existed within the U.S. defense establishment.
AARO's workshop paper proposes better ways to capture UAP reports. Its starting point is simple: how did a witness estimate what they saw?
The new release gives three old Columbia images a new official label. It does not identify an object, connect the photographs to the mission's famous videos, or overturn the astronaut's account of what those videos showed.
The third interstellar object on record, four SETI searches that turned up nothing artificial, and Avi Loeb's evolving public position — laid out, dated, and with the parts that could not be independently verified flagged.
Kirkpatrick took his "no alien technology" case to a friendly skeptics' room in Arlington. A retired Navy two-star took the open mic and called the office he used to run a disinformation campaign. Kirkpatrick said, "Yes, sir."
Colonel Karl E. Nell wrote the most legislatively detailed insider case for UAP disclosure any American has put in writing. The bill it was built to underwrite is now the most-stripped amendment in modern defense policy.
Some UFO reports have been tied to satellite flares, balloons, aircraft or optical effects. Others remain open because the public record is thin. Here is what the UAP evidence ledger actually shows in 2026.
editorial method
We separate what a document, image or witness says from what it proves. The record can change; the correction trail stays public.
