2026.6.4(5.9) 米国防総省 UFO関連資料を公開 PENTAGON STARTS RELEASING FILES RELATED TO UFOs アメリカの国防総省がUFOに関する資料を公開し始める
The U.S. Department of Defense has released materials related to unidentified flying objects, or UFOs.
The files made public on Friday include a video purportedly filmed around Japan. The footage was reportedly taken by the department in January 2023. It shows three circular objects clustered together. The video was apparently taken from the air.
Another image from the Apollo 17 moon landing in 1972 shows three small dots that become visible when the photo is enlarged. The around 160 files contain data recorded by the U.S. military, the U.S. space agency NASA, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and other agencies since the 1940s.
The Defense Department has not offered any concrete assessments of what the files show. Trump offered the release of materials related to UFOs and extraterrestrials earlier this year, citing “tremendous” public interest.
