This 2023 Office of the Secretary of Defense FOIA release (case 23-F-0010) contains 2022 email exchanges between Sean M. Kirkpatrick, director of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, and Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb. The emails arrange a meeting at Loeb's home on October 3, 2022. They also include Loeb's Medium essays on interstellar meteors IM1 and IM2 and on the Ukrainian UAP report. In that essay Loeb argues the "Phantom" objects were probably artillery shells and the luminous object a satellite.

I was planning on coming up to Bosto Would
you be available on Oct 3rd at your convenience? I would be happy to meet in either location, and depending
on your availability, I could see at least 1-2 hours, and perhaps more as we see how deep our conversation
goes. There is much to discuss and I may have a challenge for you. I have the entire day of the 3rd available
right now.
Looking forward to meeting with you,
Sean

Dear Sean,
Wonderful to hear from you. I heard great things about your credentials (and noticed
some overlap between your scientific research described here > > , and my SDI work in the 1980s).
