The government's transparency initiative unveils historical and contemporary material on Uap, including lunar images and reports of recent sightings.
Key points
The War Department - changed its name last September - published a series of files and "never-before-seen" videos on UFOs (Unidentified Flying Objects) and Uap (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) as part of an initiative to make the government's knowledge of extraterrestrial phenomena more transparent.
The approximately 162 unpublished documents, disclosed as part of Donald Trump's 'Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for Uap Encounters' programme. are black and white photos - of the Apollo 1 space missions, in 1969, and Apollo 17, in 1972 - but also exchanges between the State Department and NASA.
One of the images, taken from the lunar surface, appears to depict a group of three tiny dots in the sky.
Another document contains the FBI's interrogation of a person identified as a drone pilot, who, in September 2023, reported spotting a 'linear object' in the sky with a light so intense that it was possible to 'distinguish bands within the light itself'.
