AI-Generated Summary
This article examines evidence and expert testimony suggesting that U.S. military and intelligence satellites, including SBIRS, have the capability to track UAP. It argues that such data is likely recorded but remains classified, and calls for greater transparency regarding these observations.
This document, published on SilvaRecord.com on September 20, 2020, explores the question of whether satellites and other space-based instruments are tracking Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP). The author compiles perspectives from various experts, researchers, and former government officials to argue that the technology to track such objects has existed for decades. The text highlights the Space-Based Infrared System (SBIRS) as a primary subject of interest, noting reports that it has recorded unidentified objects entering the atmosphere that maneuvered in ways inconsistent with meteors.
Historical context is provided through references to the Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) and the necessity of distinguishing UAP from potential threats to avoid triggering military conflict. The document cites Col. John Alexander, who discusses the importance of accurate command and control systems, and mentions his experiences with NORAD and the tracking of 'uncorrelated targets.' Furthermore, the document references a 1986 Unit History of the 11th Tactical Control Squadron, which documented 'Unknown Tracks' in Alaska, some of which were verified by infrared (IR) sources, potentially from DSP satellites.
Technological capabilities are discussed, including space surveillance systems that catalogue thousands of objects daily, down to thirty centimeters in size, using optical tracking and radar fences. The document also features an interview with Chris Bledsoe, who claims to have been exposed to classified satellite information, and references statements by Dr. Eric W. Davis regarding the potential for MASINT satellites to measure UAP. The author concludes by advocating for the declassification and public sharing of this data, suggesting that the information belongs to the public rather than being kept solely within the military-industrial complex. The document includes updates regarding Christopher Mellon's comments on the unlikelihood of immediate declassification of sensor data and the deployment of new space surveillance satellites.
In short, could a UFO accidentally set off the next world war? However long the odds, it seemed that having knowledge of everything that might be flying in critical airspace would be prudent.

Official Assessment
The document argues that existing satellite and sensor technologies, such as SBIRS and space surveillance systems, are capable of tracking UAP, and that such data is likely recorded but not publicly disclosed.
