The Pentagon just released 162 files related to UFOs and UAPs and posted them on a new website, war.gov/UFO. 
Look at some of these. 
Now, some of them, like this one, are just renderings depicting eyewitness reports. 
So, keep that in mind. 
But the files come from the FBI, Department of Defense, NASA, and the State Department. 
And they include eyewitness testimony, photos, videos, and reports of sightings detailing incidents dating back decades from around the globe. 
Six of the photos show phenomena observed by NASA astronauts during the Apollo 12 and Apollo 17 missions captured in photographs taken from the surface of the moon. 
One Apollo 17 photo from December 1972 is described as depicting three dots in a triangular formation in the lunar sky. 
There are roughly two dozen videos. 
This one taken in Greece in 2023 is accompanied by a report that says an unidentified object was making multiple 90deree turns at approximately 80 miles hour. 
There's a video from Syria showing two semi-transparent irregularly shaped orange areas that each appear for 2 seconds and a video which shows an object described as resembling a football in the Indoacific. 
That footage, like many of the images released in the files, was filmed by military aircraft. 
The Pentagon's UFO site says new documents will be released on a rolling basis as they're discovered and declassified with new batches rolling out every few weeks. 
President Trump said the disclosure was aimed at providing complete and maximum transparency, writing on Truth Social. 
Whereas previous administrations have failed to be transparent on this subject, with these new documents and videos, the people can decide for themselves what the hell is going on. 
Have fun and enjoy.
