The U.S. Secretary of State said unidentified objects over American installations 'are not ours' and that he does not know what they are. He stopped short of blaming aliens, and said that if Washington had proof, the president would already be on prime-time TV.
The Pentagon's fifth PURSUE release, posted August 7, adds 41 files from the widest set of agencies yet - and a new kind of evidence: FBI witness forms, including federal agents describing objects they could not identify over the western U.S. this year.
AARO's overdue annual report rejects claims the U.S. holds recovered 'non-human' technology, then reveals the office is drafting procedures to take custody of and test such material 'should' any ever surface - and sets the evidence bar a specimen must clear.
The Pentagon's UAP office resolves nearly every case it can actually analyze to balloons, satellites, drones and birds. The reason its pile of 'unexplained' files stays large is not exotic physics - it is a chronic shortage of usable sensor data, the office says.
AARO's annual report on unidentified phenomena, missing for months, arrived this week. Of 319 new sightings, the office resolved 114 - balloons, satellites, birds, one rocket and a single jetpack - while a shortage of sensor data left most cases open.
It is the only maritime case in the Pentagon's newest UAP report, which logged 319 sightings in a year and could resolve only about a third. AARO says the Virginia encounter is still unexplained.
A radar 'solid return' feels like proof - a machine saw it, not a nervous pilot. But the atmosphere can bend a radar beam into a phantom, and telling a real UAP from a ghost comes down to one rule investigators live by.
The Pentagon's famous infrared UAP footage is genuine. But the cameras that captured it have specific design quirks - and knowing what they are changes what you see.
The Pentagon's fourth PURSUE release dropped July 10 - 40 newly declassified files including a lockdown at America's nuclear warhead factory, a star-shaped object tracked over the Yellow Sea, and a 1949 meeting of atomic scientists stumped by mystery lights.
A US military infrared sensor filmed four unidentified objects in synchronized flight over the Persian Gulf region in August 2022. The footage is now public via PURSUE - and officially unexplained after nearly four years.
America's first public UFO file portal logged 1.7 billion views in six weeks. But Congress has a separate list of 46 specific military videos - including F-16 footage of a UAP shootdown - that it says the Pentagon is withholding.
Across three PURSUE tranches, glowing spheres appear more than any other shape - and while most have conventional explanations, a stubborn fraction don't. This is what the documented evidence shows.
The Pentagon has a specific technical framework for the most baffling UAP cases in its 2,000-file archive - five physics-defying behaviors identified from real pilot testimony and sensor data that mark an object as 'unresolved.'
The Pentagon's UAP investigation office has 2,000+ active case files - and its own director says 40% remain without a conventional explanation. But AARO has not published its legally required 2025 annual report, raising questions about what the office is finding.
In October 2023, six federal agents near a sensitive U.S. site watched silent orange orbs release red ones over two nights. Newly released Pentagon files show AARO ran every check available - and still can't account for 40% of what the agents reported.
A former senior Pentagon official says UAP incursions over military bases and warships are happening hundreds of times a year - and commanders still have no answers. The Langley Air Force Base case forced a fighter jet squadron to relocate.
The Pentagon's PURSUE programme posted 72 more declassified files on June 12, 2026, revealing that FBI agents traced five years of unexplained orb sightings to a single northeastern U.S. property, while the AARO director found 40% of phenomena cases remain unresolved.
Established in 2022, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office is the U.S. government's primary body for detecting, identifying, and analyzing unidentified anomalous phenomena - here is how it works and what it has found.
The Department of War launched war.gov/ufo in May 2026 and published two tranches of declassified UAP records. Here is a clear-eyed account of what was released, what it shows, and what it does not.
