Yeah, I wondered that also. UFO just seamed tastier in the news I guess than UAP. Most people haven't heard of the new UAP label.

From the History Channel…..The Proof Is Out There - Cubed-Shaped UFO
A point of reference perhaps?…….characteristics similar to the 2 objects of Alaska and Canada? (except for shapes)
February 2020….Medellin, Columbia …..UAP characteristics….mentioned
Altitude - 30,000 ft
Size - 10-15 (estimated)
Shape - Cube
Speed - To slow to be a plane or missile (at the moment of viewing)
Not so Cube when zoomed in…..the host is more correct to call it a polyhedron (a solid figure with many plane faces, typically more than six)…..and it doesn’t look like a Drone.
In Ancient Aliens lingo ……”you have to wonder”
Disregard, if you desire, the example references to the Navy “Batman” Balloon…..although for some, it wasn’t a Batman balloon.

All those folks who say: if they wanted to destroy us or attack us, they would have already done it.

Yeah. That's always been my philosophy and to add to that, we never would have seen it coming!

President Biden speaks about the downing of unidentified aerial objects last weekend, as well as the Chinese spy balloon off the coast of North Carolina. He says “nothing suggests” they are related to China and he defends his handling of the issue

It’s amazing that jet fighters can fly at slow speeds and yet do not get close enough to these objects, slowly enough, so that they could get eyes on them…...what a bunch of BS!
A small, globe-trotting balloon declared “missing in action” by an Illinois-based hobbyist club on Feb. 15 has emerged as a candidate to explain one of the three mystery objects shot down by four heat-seeking missiles launched by U.S. Air Force fighters since Feb. 10.
The club—the Northern Illinois Bottlecap Balloon Brigade (NIBBB)—is not pointing fingers yet.
But the circumstantial evidence is at least intriguing. The club’s silver-coated, party-style, “pico balloon” reported its last position on Feb. 10 at 38,910 ft. off the west coast of Alaska, and a popular forecasting tool—the HYSPLIT model provided by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)—projected the cylindrically shaped object would be floating high over the central part of the Yukon Territory on Feb. 11. That is the same day a Lockheed Martin F-22 shot down an unidentified object of a similar description and altitude in the same general area.
There are suspicions among other prominent members of the small, pico-ballooning enthusiasts’ community, which combines ham radio and high-altitude ballooning into a single, relatively affordable hobby.
“I tried contacting our military and the FBI—and just got the runaround—to try to enlighten them on what a lot of these things probably are. And they’re going to look not too intelligent to be shooting them down,” says Ron Meadows, the founder of Scientific Balloon Solutions (SBS), a Silicon Valley company that makes purpose-built pico balloons for hobbyists, educators and scientists

Hmmm maybe I should buy one and put some research equipment on there and see if I can some photos of Antarctica before it gets shot down.
Speculation has run rampant as to the origin of the objects shot down and their purpose. U.S. officials have not ruled anything out, but White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said “there is no indication of aliens or extraterrestrial activity with these recent takedowns.”
On Sunday, the US Senate majority leader, Charles Schumer, who was briefed by the Biden administration before the Lake Huron incident, said the second and third objects were very likely small balloons. But speaking to reporters the same day, Gen Glen VanHerck, the head of Norad, said: “I’m not going to categorise them as balloons. We’re calling them objects for a reason.” He said he wasn’t able to say how they stayed aloft, but speculated there could be a balloon inside or some type of propulsion mechanism. So far, only the first object has been attributed to China.
