Now to the Pentagon releasing its latest trove of files related to UFOs. 
The dozens of videos, images, and reports, some as recent as last year. 
Here's Perry Russom. 
>> Tonight, the eerie new videos released by the Pentagon showing more of what the government calls unidentified anomalous phenomena or UAPs. 40 new files today including 19 videos. 
One UAP described by a pilot as having flight characteristics unlike anything they had seen in their 28 years of military service. 
Two encounters allegedly happening just last year. 
One video shows a UAP in the clouds, at times partially hidden. 
The camera follows it for just over 2 minutes. 
A second video shows what looks like a six-pointed star bobbing in the skies above the Yellow Sea in Asia. 
Camera zooming in on this UAP from 2020. 
A partially redacted Pentagon report says it was about 12 to 15 feet tall. 
In 2015, the US military capturing a UAP speeding past their camera. 
Three new pictures released including this one taken on board the Columbia space shuttle in 1996. 
An object apparently floating in orbit around Earth. 
It's still not clear what any of these objects are. 
>> Rachel, so far the Pentagon has released more than 300 UAP files under a directive by President Trump. 
The Pentagon says more files are coming, Rachel. 
>> Yeah, lots of interest in this. 
Okay, Perry. 
Thank you.
