Five biggest revelations from UFO files from ‘alien encounters’ to ‘flying orbs’

Bombshell files documenting alleged sightings of unidentified flying objects and aliens have been published by the US Administration.

Donald Trump ordered the Department of War to release hundreds of never-before-seen classified files.

The first tranche of 169 items included State Department cables, FBI documents and NASA transcripts of crewed flights into space.

This is only the first batch of files from the Pentagon – with many more to come – but they have already created a storm of unanswered questions about the possibility of extraterrestrial life.

Strange lights seen from the Moon

The files contain a string of unexplained sightings made by astronauts on the lunar surface.

A string of reports were made during the Apollo 17 mission to the Moon in 1972.

Pilot Ronald Evans told mission control: ‘Now we’ve got a few very bright particles or fragments or something that go drifting by as we maneuver.’

Harrison Schmitt, another pilot on the mission, added: ‘There’s a whole bunch of big ones on my window down there – just bright. It looks like the Fourth of July out of Ron’s window.’

Then the next day, mission commander Eugene Cernan said he had seen a ‘very brihgt spot hat flashed right between my eyes like a very bright headlight’ just as he was falling asleep.

A photograph showing three dots above the Moon was even snapped, sparking an investigation by the Pentagon.

Buzz Aldrin, the second person to walk on the moon, also repoted ‘unusual sights’ while on the Apollo 11 mission in 1969, including as he was going to sleep.

According to a transcript in the files, the astronaut said: ‘The first unusual thing that we saw I guess was one day out or something pretty close to the moon. It had a sizeable dimension to it, so we put the monocular on it.

He went on: ‘The other observation that I made accumulated gradually. I don’t know whether I saw it the first night, but I’m sure I saw it the second night. I was trying to go to sleep with all the lights out. I observed what I thought were little flashes inside the cabin, spaced a couple of minutes apart.’

The Apollo 12 mission later in 1969 also observed ‘unidentified phenomena’ from the moon’s surface, the files revealed.

Chilling FBI reports about ‘aliens’

The Pentagon also made public hundreds of pages from an FBI case file of reports of UFOs and paranormal activity from 1947 to 1968.

One of these included a chilling picture of a figure holding its arms up and looking towards the sky.

A handwritten letter from a man from Virginia asked the FBI to comment on the image.

There were also testimonies of encounters with apparent occupants of these craft.

One memo reads: ‘A few witnesses have reported seeing crewmen who had landed from the objects.’

The beings were described as ‘three and a half to four feet tall, wearing what appear to be space suits and helmets.’

The sighting was detailed in a book titled Flying Saucers – Serious Business authored by Frank Edwards in June 1966. 

In a different report, a ‘young white female’ informant came forward to the force claiming she had met a being from another planet.

That being ‘had assumed earthly form. He allegedly ‘gave her certain information, then was picked up and departed from earth.’

Mysterious footage and pictures of UFOs

The tranche of files released on Friday included a host of pictures and images showing bizarre-looking objects in the skies.

These included footage of a triangular-shaped UFO, which has gone viral on social media.

The documents also feature an FBI graphic made from eyewitness reports from September 2023 of an apparent ellipsoid bronze metallic object materializing out of a bright light in the sky.

According to the report, several witnesses claimed to have seen ‘orbs launching other orbs’ in the distance, along with a large glowing sphere hovering in place and a semi-transparent object compared to a ‘translucent kite.’

Claims that Nazis built a UFO

One FBI document alleged that a man named Paul Peyerl claimed he was a member of the German Air Force in 1944 and that the Nazi’s built a UFO during the war.

The document claimed: ‘During this period he observed the aircraft described above. It was saucer shaped, about twenty-one feet in diameter, radio controlled, and mounted several jet engines around the exterior portion of the craft.’

Going into detai about the craft, the file continued: ‘He further described the exterior portion as revolving around the dome in the center which remained stationary. It was PEYERL’s responsibility to photograph the object while in flight. He asserted he was able to retain a negative of a photograph he made at 7,000 meters (20,000 feet).

‘A Xerox copy of the negative, as furnished by PEYERL, appears on the last page of this communication. Also, a still photograph he allegedly made “at the risk of my life”, illustrating the object parked in a hanger, appears on the last page.’

‘Super-hot’ orbs chased US fighter jets

One of the heavily redacted FBI reports included a bombshell allegation about quick unidentified objects that were able to outrun military helicopters.

In the file, a senior US intelligence officer recounted a nighttime mission in a remote mountain range.

After local staff repeatedly claimed they had seen strange glowing ‘orbs’ intelligence personnel, federal agents and helicopter crews were dispatched to investigate.

When they arrived, they allegedly saw swarms of highly maneuverable objects that came up as extremely hot on their thermal cameras.

The orbs were said to have outpaced a military helicopter and then pursued a fighter jet trying to intercept them.

A co-pilot in the lead helicopter even claimed he watched an orb split into two before another object ’emerged’ and shot away.
