Pentagon opens vault on UFO files, launches public archive
TL;DR Summary
The Pentagon released 162 previously classified UFO/UAP files ordered by President Trump, spanning decades with documents from the FBI, NASA and others, and debuted a new online archive to promote transparency. Officials caution that many items were only screened for security and have not been fully analyzed, and no definitive evidence of alien life or technology has been confirmed; the move follows public chatter sparked by Obama’s remarks and ongoing political debate about distractions versus disclosure.
