So, now we know the story behind the drones, at least a chunk of it. It's been a FAA, research-tech matter. There's still more to unveil, quite clearly (i.e., more questions to ask; more answer to be given), but we'll see; at least this is better than nothing, with the assurance that the formations aren't "the enemy."
Why, though, did it take until January 28th for this to be told? Why did the previous hierarchy, and those local governments presiding over the sightings, claim to have no idea of their origin, with some even laughing the whole thing off? Sure, the mystery didn't cause a mass panic akin to Rod Serling's "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street," but there were times when it could have, based on several proposed theories that purported extraterrestrial, Chinese and Iranian origins.
It's also insulting that we were assured that the drones were predominately figments of our imaginations and/or the by-and-large misidentification of planes, helicopters, hobbyist devices and yes, even twinkling stars. On the other hand, in comparison to the disasters that have clamped parts of the nation throughout 2024, where citizens' needs have been ignored in droves (let alone that dire situation of our stranded astronauts), this drone phenomenon looks like a sorrowful drop in the bureaucratic bucket by comparison.
