And had 120 members across ~15 states on day one, yes.

In a totally non-fringe, non-dismissed, socially accepted, even legally defined profession.

We don't even today have standardizations to understand what equipment should be used to even record the data that this phenomena generates.

		Peculiar right? A well funded agency would likely be able to develop a sensor package which tracks objects with multiple cameras with various zoom lenses and spectrums (IR/UV/etc.) and also radio. I think tech is becoming so good eventually some enterprising UAP engineer is going to be able to cobble something together with off the shelf components and start selling kits. Probably nothing will come of it still, I think, but who knows?
