A new research paper from Ukraine explores the topic of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) with a focus on “Dark UAPs.”

ABSTRACT This study employs advanced observational techniques to analyze the characteristics of UAPs, presenting findings from three distinct cases:
- Daytime multi-perspective observations of UAPs over Kiev.
- Nighttime documentation of a group of objects near the Moon.
- UAP sightings within the active combat zones in Ukraine.
Our findings reveal that Dark UAPs are visible in the visible spectrum only during daylight, while nighttime observations require infrared detection. Notably, these UAPs range in size from three to six kilometers and can reach speeds of 2.5 Mach or greater. They demonstrate low albedo, measuring below three percent, which indicates characteristics consistent with a nearly black body.

This research paper presents intriguing findings on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) observed in Ukraine, providing valuable insights into their characteristics based on high-tech observations. The identification of “Dark UAPs,” which are visible only in specific conditions—daytime visibility with low albedo and nighttime visibility in the infrared spectrum—raises interesting questions about their nature and origins.
The data from the three distinct observation cases, particularly the significant sizes (3 to 6 kilometers) and high velocities (up to 2.5 Mach and beyond), suggest they are unlike typical aerial objects. The identification of low albedo further supports the notion that these phenomena possess unique properties that differentiate them from conventional aircraft or natural atmospheric phenomena.
The implications of such findings could be profound, especially considering one of the observation sites is in a combat zone. It hints at potential military or strategic relevance for these UAPs.
Looking forward, it would be fascinating to see further research on this topic, potentially expanding the understanding of these phenomena, their implications for airspace security, and any technological advancements that might arise as a result of studying them. Additionally, how researchers plan to gather more data or use different observation methods in the future would be essential areas for follow-up studies.
