Great list. Hope you continue this feature from time to time. I knew about items 2, 3, 5, 9, 10, 12, and 14. Not so much the others, which also interesting.

Regarding the drones (#14), this happened last year, and according to a pilot who saw them they were about 20 feet long, so the hobbyist’s drone explanation is dead on arrival. Especially since it wasn’t just one drone. As many as a dozen passed over Langley Air Force base each night, one after another, that according to the Wall Street Journal sounded “like a parade of lawn mowers”. By the way, that doesn’t mean they had propellors. A buzzing sound could be due some sort of electromagnetic propulsion.

Anyway, according to the articles on this, none of the countermeasures they had at the base (like drone signal jamming devices) worked to defeat the drones. Furthermore, the military said they were nearly impossible to track, vanishing to wherever they came from when they left each night. This, by the way, is a base with F22s, meaning it's no ordinary base. And they brought in special surveillance aircraft on some nights, yet still nothing that could explain who is doing this. Or at least they aren't telling us.

And to add to the story, the Daily Mail reported that this isn’t the only place in the US that has been surveilled in this way. A similar series of intrusions occurred over Palmdale, Ca near Edwards Air Force Base. And a “retired, senior Pentagon official" named Chris Mellon said that in some cases mother ships have been observed releasing swarms of smaller craft. It’s truly a mystery,

Aliens? Perhaps, although I wouldn’t rule out a test of tech coming out of some highly secret US program although why they'd need to send over a dozen craft for a test makes no sense. And if it was a test, why would the government be talking about the intrusions at all? Maybe they felt they had to say something given that civilians have seen the drones. Yeah ... my money is on aliens. And from the looks of it, they might be more benevolent than the UNIPARTY. Just saying ...

This may be something I do more often--I have lists and lists of these things. I knew the drones were old news but they just popped back up. I don't know whether it was reported at the time (don't think so) and I don't know why it's suddenly newsworthy. Maybe they need to get out ahead of this story?

Thanks! I may do more of these short lists. There's so much going on. I don't know how people are going to study history in future years, we've had such eventful times these past few years.
