>Hence, it is reasonable to conclude that the U.S. government believes that some of these objects are not human in origin.

Huh??? How is that 'reasonable' to conclude.

>This leaves two possibilities: either UAP are natural terrestrial phenomena or they are extraterrestrial in origin.

Or a third option: Something else we aren't clever enough to think of. Maybe it's a sensor issue coupled with active human imagination. Or... something else entirely.

The "possible link" is that the author thinks 'Oumuamua might be aliens, and UAPs might be aliens, and therefore the two might be linked. That's it.

There, saved you a click.

I’ve read the article twice now and I’m unclear on the link. Is it simply that these UAPs are appearing after the Oumuamua came by? Like the coincident time of the UAPs post the 2017 passby?

Your ad blocker is doing its job as the whole article is just an ad for Avi Loeb’s book
