- What it contains
- The report counts 366 new reports (247 new and 119 relating to earlier periods), for a total of 510 as of August 30, 2022. About half received an ordinary explanation, such as balloons and drones, while 171 cases remain “uncharacterized.”
- What it shows and what it does not
- It shows that, with more data, many reports find ordinary explanations and that a portion remains uncharacterized. It contains no claims about non-human craft or materials.
- How it came to light
- Published by the ODNI on January 12, 2023 in an unclassified version; the link leads to the copy archived by the Wayback Machine the same day.
