Credible, data-driven coverage of UFO and UAP events worldwide.
In a four-hour interview with Jesse Michels, Eric Weinstein pressed physicist Eric Davis on the alleged UFO crash-retrieval program – and exposed what may be its most damning flaw: no theoretical physicists were ever on it.
On Piers Morgan Uncensored, mathematician Eric Weinstein laid out a thesis connecting Epstein's infiltration of elite physics to UFO disclosure, gravity research, and the national laboratories of New Mexico.
Avi Loeb says his Galileo Project is now capable of discovering UAP without government help. Here's what the project has produced so far – and what it hasn't.
A researcher found that stamps on Majestic-12 documents match identifiers in recently declassified CIA Paperclip files. The FBI called MJ-12 a fake in 1988. Both sides of the debate are worth examining.
From the first Secretary of Defense to a retired general who disappeared last week – a sourced investigation into the people connected to UFO programs who went missing, died under disputed circumstances, or were destroyed by the system they challenged.
A Silver Alert has been issued for retired Air Force Maj. Gen. William McCasland – the general named in the Podesta-DeLonge WikiLeaks emails as a key figure behind UFO disclosure efforts.
Former Pentagon intelligence official Christopher Mellon says Trump's order to release UFO files is significant but warns that real disclosure won't come from an archival data dump – it will come from the White House.
NASA adds a 2027 test mission and pushes its first crewed Moon landing to 2028 – while SpaceX launched 165 times in 2025 alone. The agency's $4.1 billion-per-launch rocket has yet to fly a single mission this decade with crew aboard.
Former acting AARO director Tim Phillips now describes objects in space and impossible maneuvers – things he never said while in the chair. He's not the first. The pattern raises a simple question: what are officials allowed to say while they're still on the job?
In a Fox News interview, David Grusch says the president is deeply knowledgeable on UAPs, confirms he saw photos of non-human remains, and names Dick Cheney as the last person to centrally oversee the programs.
In a new interview, former Pentagon UAP official Lue Elizondo warns of strategic surprise, names 2027 and 2036 as rumored timeline dates, and recounts Pentagon officials who called UFOs 'demonic.'
For three decades, nobody talked about Roswell. Then a nuclear physicist found a retired intelligence officer, a series of books rewrote history, and the most famous UFO case in the world was built – partly on evidence, partly on fabrication.
The Air Force said it was a classified balloon. The GAO said the records were destroyed. A memo in a general's hand has never been read. After two federal investigations, Roswell's most important questions remain open.
On July 8, 1947, the world's only nuclear-armed bomber unit announced it had recovered a 'flying disc.' By the next morning, the story was dead. What the original 1947 sources actually say – and don't say – about the most famous UFO case in history.
A 2026 PNAS study finds that Aurignacian-era engravings on ivory artifacts from southwestern Germany were conventional and statistically comparable to proto-cuneiform – but they are not writing. Here's what the paper actually says.
A 2024 whistleblower report claims the Pentagon operates a classified program called Immaculate Constellation that collects and conceals UAP imagery from Congress and the public. The DoD denies it exists.
From 'flying saucer' to 'unidentified anomalous phenomena,' the language around UFOs has changed – and the words matter. Here's the complete guide to the terms shaping congressional hearings, Pentagon reports, and disclosure.
Declassified CIA records show the agency recommended debunking UFOs, lied about sightings to protect spy planes, and ran covert behavior-control programs – all at the same time. A resurfaced 1952 memo is the latest reminder.
In September 1961, a New Hampshire couple reported a UFO encounter, two hours of missing time, and – years later under hypnosis – a detailed abduction narrative that would shape how the world thinks about alien contact.
In September 2023, NASA released a landmark report calling for better data, less stigma, and a new UAP research director. More than two years on, the follow-through has been hard to find.
In November 2004, Navy pilots from the USS Nimitz carrier group encountered a white, wingless object that outmaneuvered their F/A-18s. The Pentagon later confirmed the footage was real – and the object remains unidentified.
Between 2014 and 2015, U.S. Navy aviators flying off Virginia Beach encountered unidentified objects so frequently they became part of daily briefs. The GIMBAL and GOFAST infrared videos – later released by the Pentagon – captured two of those encounters on tape.
A House lawmaker says the UAP Caucus has a lead on a new whistleblower – but instead of a public hearing, Congress is pushing for classified briefings behind closed doors. Here's what's changed.
The Air Force processed thousands of UFO sightings and explained most of them. But 701 cases – involving police officers, military pilots, and multi-sensor tracking – resisted every conventional answer Blue Book could offer.
Before there was Blue Book, there was panic. How a rejected top-secret report, a revolving door of cover names, and one determined captain created the U.S. government's longest-running UFO investigation – inside a basement office at Wright-Patterson AFB.
By 1966, Blue Book's own scientific consultant had turned against it, Congress was asking questions, and a university study meant to end the UFO debate was compromised before it began. The program didn't just close – it collapsed.
UFO reports in Wisconsin surged to 74 in 2025, with Manitowoc County logging four sightings including a city-block-sized black triangle. The activity sits squarely inside the Lake Michigan Triangle.
The Pentagon's UFO office has failed to deliver congressionally mandated reports, lost track of key evidence, and gone quiet. Former officials say the system is broken.
On February 19, 2026, President Trump directed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and federal agencies to begin identifying and releasing all government files related to UFOs, UAPs, and extraterrestrial life. No timeline was set.
On a podcast lightning round, Barack Obama said aliens are 'real.' The clip went viral. Then he walked it back. Here's the full context, what he clarified, and why it matters.
The FY2026 NDAA requires AARO to brief lawmakers on every UAP intercept conducted by NORAD and U.S. Northern Command – going back to 2004. It also orders a review of classification guides that may be hiding UFO-related information.
MQ-9 Reaper sensor footage shown at a September 2025 congressional hearing appears to capture an AGM-114 Hellfire missile striking a small orb off Yemen's coast – with the object flying on afterward. The Pentagon has not commented.
From November through December 2024, mysterious nighttime lights over New Jersey triggered an FBI investigation, an airport shutdown, military base incursions, and a congressional firestorm – but officials said most sightings were just planes and stars.
AARO's FY2024 annual report catalogs 757 UAP cases, resolves most as drones and balloons, flags 21 for deeper analysis – and says it found no evidence of extraterrestrial technology.
On June 5, 2024, roughly 12 stagehands at Red Rocks Amphitheatre watched a silent, disc-shaped craft with three rows of lights hover for 40 seconds – then dissolve into nothing when someone shined a flashlight at it.
In December 2023, waves of unidentified drones penetrated restricted airspace over one of America's most important air bases – forcing F-22s to relocate and exposing a gap in the nation's ability to defend its own installations.
On July 26, 2023, David Grusch testified under oath before the House Oversight Committee that the U.S. government runs secret UAP crash-retrieval programs. The Pentagon denies it. The fallout is still unfolding.
On November 7, 2006, United Airlines pilots and ground crew watched a silent disc-shaped object hover over one of the world's busiest airports – then punch a hole through the clouds as it shot skyward. The FAA declined to investigate.
In the pre-dawn hours of January 5, 2000, officers from five Illinois police departments independently watched a huge, silent triangular craft drift across St. Clair County – and their dispatch recordings survived.
On March 13, 1997, thousands of witnesses across Arizona reported a massive, silent V-shaped craft and a separate row of stationary lights. The military said flares. The governor ridiculed it. A decade later, he said he'd seen it himself.
From November 1989 through spring 1990, thousands of Belgians – including gendarmes, soldiers, and radar operators – reported massive triangular craft over Wallonia. The Belgian Air Force scrambled fighters, got radar lock-ons, and told the world what happened.
On two consecutive weekends in July 1952, radar operators tracked unidentified targets over Washington, D.C. while pilots and controllers watched mysterious lights outrun Air Force jets – triggering the largest Pentagon press conference since World War II.
In July 1947, the U.S. Army announced it had recovered a 'flying disc' near Roswell, New Mexico – then retracted the claim within hours. Decades later, the case became the most famous UFO story in history.
On June 24, 1947, private pilot Kenneth Arnold spotted nine fast-moving, reflective objects near Mount Rainier. His description of their motion was misquoted as their shape – and the term 'flying saucer' was born.
