The $30 million toe in the water
The Pentagon's UFO files have been a source of fascination for the public and researchers alike, with the latest release adding dozens of new documents, photographs, and videos to its archive.
The Pentagon released a third batch of UFO files on Friday, including a 1958 CIA memo about a destroyed space message and reports of orb sightings and a potato-shaped craft over a military facility.
The memo, which has been widely reported, discusses a phone conversation between a scientist, Dr. Leon Davidson, and two CIA agents, Walker and Skakich, regarding concerns about a destroyed space message and its transmitter.
The document admits that the answer given to Davidson was hardly fair and not likely to be fully accepted by him, as he received no explanation on how or why the transmission was destroyed.
Unprecedented levels of interest
The Pentagon noted unprecedented levels of interest in the UFO files, with the Department of War website receiving over 1.7 billion hits worldwide since its launch in May.
The latest trove continues to fuel speculation about government knowledge of extraterrestrial phenomena, as researchers and the public alike pore over the newly released materials for clues.
US law enforcement officers described encountering glowing orange orbs near hills or ridgelines over two nights in October 2023.
The orbs hovered motionless, pulsed between bright orange and clear, and sometimes moved quickly across the sky.
Some orbs suddenly released three to four smaller red lights that flew out in straight lines, vertical or clustered formations, or downward like flares.
A potato-shaped craft over Cheyenne Mountain
Another witness interview documented a February 2022 sighting over Cheyenne Mountain, a heavily protected underground military complex in Colorado formerly home to NORAD.
A US Army intelligence officer and four other members of his unit saw a potato-shaped craft hovering over the mountain.
The object was creamy or whitish, somewhat translucent with a slight shimmer, and made of irregular, non-overlapping panels like articulating fish scales.
The UFO stayed perfectly still, but the panels on its surface shifted slowly in waves.
After about two minutes, the object suddenly vanished as if it cloaked itself in mid air.
