UAP or 'Unidentified Aerial Phenomena" is a professional term created by the Department of Defense to replace the term 'UFO'. They did this because 'UFO' has developed a significant negative social stigma, which they are working to remove. Will they possibly disclose information to the public? Why else would they care about the stigma? Who knows?
Navy official: You won't believe this, I was flying my plane and right outside I see a UAP.
Person: Wow you said UAP instead of UFO your fancy!

"Unidentified Aerial Phenomena". Sometimes instead "Unexplained Aerial Phenomena".
A visual stimulus that provokes a sighting report of an object or light seen in the sky, the appearance and/or flight dynamics of which do not suggest a logical, conventional flying object, and which remains unidentified after close
scrutiny of all available evidence.
Basically a newer term for UFO, but meant to imply a higher degree of validity.

Uap comes off as mean but once you get to know her she's super kind. They're the most caring people ever. They are legit angels sent to earth. They say they're not smart but can do anything!
