The Pentagon released never-before-seen files on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) as part of the PURSUE effort, or the Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters.
Newly released police logs and footage have revived serious questions about air base drones that forced a U.K. police helicopter into evasive action near a U.S. air base last year—despite officials initially brushing off the incident as a routine fighter jet sighting.
A dramatic video shown at a congressional hearing this week appears to show a U.S. Hellfire missile fired from a military drone striking a glowing orb—only for the object to remain completely unaffected. The footage, recorded by a U.S. MQ-9 Reaper off the coast of Yemen on October 30, 2024, has triggered a firestorm of online speculation and raised new questions about unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs).
The Pentagon revealed the existence of an Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force in 2020; the programme is tasked with gathering all info the military has on UFO sightings which cannot be rationally explained.
