The\u00a0War Department released more than 160 files Friday related to sightings of UFOs<\/a>\u00a0dating back nearly 80 years, two days after\u00a0President Trump predicted<\/a>, \u201cI think some of it\u2019s going to be very interesting to people.\u201d<\/p>\n

The disclosure of 162 files by the Pentagon follows a\u00a0presidential order<\/a>\u00a0from February\u00a0calling for transparency<\/a>\u00a0around \u201calien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs).\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe American people can now access the federal government\u2019s declassified UAP files instantly. The latest UAP videos, photos, and original source documents from across the entire United States government are all in one place \u2013 no clearance required,\u201d the Pentagon\u00a0said in a post on X broadcasting the file dump.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile past administrations sought to discredit or dissuade the American people, President Trump is focused on providing maximum transparency to the public, who can ultimately make up their own minds about the information contained in these files.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among the documents published Friday were a trove of intelligence reports and FBI case files that included apparent eyewitness testimony and public reports about possible sightings over the years.<\/p>\n

A chunk of the FBI files come with a note admitting that some of the information had already been \u201cpartially\u201d been made public.<\/p>\n

Transcripts from NASA astronauts reporting unidentified objects on missions were also included in the initial batch of documents, which other files just included news clippings about apparent UFO sightings dating back to the 1950s.<\/p>\n

Even before Trump\u2019s directive, the Pentagon was years into a process to declassify and release\u00a0government documents related to UFOs<\/a>, often referred to by the feds as unexplained anomalous phenomena, or UAP.<\/p>\n
