Mysterious videos of darting black objects, renderings of flying ships, and eyewitness reports of unexplained lights are among the previously unseen files released by the Department of Defense, and President Donald Trump said some are “related to Alien and Extraterrestrial Life.”
The files published online Friday of unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs), previously known as UFOs, are to be released on a rolling basis “in the interest of total transparency,” the Pentagon said.
The release allows the general public to “make up their own minds about the information contained in these files,” the Pentagon said.
In a statement, Trump called it an “honor” to direct the release of the files, which he said are “related to Alien and Extraterrestrial Life, Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, and Unidentified Flying Objects.”
