The UFO files<\/h2>

Dozens of PDF, images, and video files are now accessible on the Department of Defense\u2019s website. These include original source documents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), U.S. military and even imagery from NASA\u2019s Apollo missions.\u00a0<\/p>

<\/div>

The complete files are available on their website at\u00a0war.gov\/ufo<\/u>.\u00a0<\/p>

What they’re saying:<\/p>

“The Department of War is in lockstep with President Trump to bring unprecedented transparency regarding our government\u2019s understanding of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena,” said Secretary Pete Hegseth. “These files, hidden behind classifications, have long fueled justified speculation \u2014 and it\u2019s time the American people see it for themselves. This release of declassified documents demonstrates the Trump Administration\u2019s earnest commitment to unprecedented transparency.”<\/p>

NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman also released a statement reading, “I applaud President Trump\u2019s whole-of-government effort to bring greater transparency to the American people on unidentified anomalous phenomena. At NASA, our job is to bring the brightest minds and most advanced scientific instruments to bear, follow the data, and share what we learn. We will remain candid about what we know to be true, what we have yet to understand, and all that remains to be discovered. Exploration and the pursuit of knowledge are core to NASA\u2019s mission as we endeavor to unlock the secrets of the universe.”<\/p>
