A retired NASA flight surgeon claims he saw footage of a 20-foot-wide flying saucer with a US Air Force logo performing advanced maneuvers in a military hangar over 30 years ago. Dr. Gregory Rogers, a former NASA Chief Flight Surgeon and Air Force Major, shared his story amid growing whistleblower reports about secretive UFO programs. “I know exactly what I saw that day, and it was in no fashion a conventional flying vehicle,” Rogers, 68, told the Daily Mail. In 1992, while stationed at Cape Canaveral, an Air Force major led him to a locked room and showed him CCTV...

A declassified Cold War-era file from the CIA has gone viral over its coverage of a supposed clash between Soviet soldiers and a UFO, passengers of which reportedly turned the troops to stone before blasting off. Following the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, the CIA acquired a 250-page KGB report recounting the events that transpired after a platoon fired at a flying saucer over Ukraine. The report included eyewitness accounts and pictures of the aftermath, which one American agent described as “a horrific picture of revenge on the part of extraterrestrial creatures, a picture that makes one’s blood...

On the afternoon of July 13, 2024, lone gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks shot at former US President Donald Trump as he spoke at a podium during a campaign event in Pennsylvania. It was almost a miracle that Trump was saved; at the moment of the shots, he turned his head sharply, and the bullet only slightly grazed his ear without damaging his head. Crooks was immediately shot dead by the guards. A couple of days later, a video of a strange flying object was published on social networks (see below). It was stated that the video was filmed at the...

Rep. Tim Burchett is introducing a new bill designed to force the US government to release all of its UFO files. Things could soon get very interesting for UFO disclosure advocates - that is, at least, if a new congressional bill introduced by Rep. Tim Burchett this week actually passes. At only 1.5 pages in length, the bill - entitled 'The UAP Transparency Act' - isn't exactly very large. If it did happen to pass, however, it would force the President of the United States to not only order all government agencies to release all of their UFO-related documents to...

Has the U.S. government secretly retrieved exotic craft of “non-human” origin? Newly declassified documents, along with extraordinary legislation, illustrate how two successive Democratic Senate majority leaders appear to have believed so. Notably, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and the late Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) were not alone in their focus on UFOs. The Democratic heavyweights received critical support and encouragement from a bipartisan group of high-profile senators over the years, including former fighter pilot and famed astronaut John Glenn (D-Ohio); Ted Stevens (R-Alaska), who observed a UFO as a World War II pilot; Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii), then-chairman of the Senate Appropriations...

An airline passenger flying out of New York City captured remarkably clear footage of a saucer-shaped object zipping past the plane at an incredible speed. The tantalizing video was reportedly recorded this past Monday on a flight from NYC to Florida and subsequently popped up on Reddit by way of a friend of the person who filmed the peculiar anomaly. In the footage, as the airliner ascends over the city, there is a split-second moment wherein something strange crosses the sky outside the window of the plane. When the footage is slowed down or paused (as seen in the presentation...

A pair of UFOs were spotted soaring over an oil rig off the coast of Mexico where locals have claimed is home to a secret underwater alien base. A crew member of the vessel near Tampico snapped two images - one showing a saucer-shaped craft with glowing lights circling the base and the other with a triangular design and three lights on the bottom. The images were captured on October 2023, but have just now been released online. DailyMail.com spoke with oil rigger 'Pat' who obtained the pictures and information of the sighting from a fellow colleague on another rig...

A group of Ukrainian soldiers were left scratching their heads when their reconnaissance drone spotted a sizeable saucer-shaped object hovering in the sky. The peculiar UFO sighting reportedly occurred earlier this month as the country's 406th Battalion was using a thermal-imaging UAV to keep an eye out for Russian adversaries. The exercise took a strange turn, however, when the drone caught sight of a cylindrical craft off in the distance. The weird anomaly understandably sparked a spirited debate among the soldiers operating the UAV with one of the men wondering what the object could be and why it was not...

Clear video footage of a classic "flying saucer" was recently captured during a commercial flight over Colombia. The witness was said to have recorded the video during a journey from Bogota to Salento. In the footage, a small metallic-appearing object seen beyond the jet's wing, travels in a straight line above the clouds, seemingly at an altitude too high to be a drone.

A Las Vegas, Nevada family says they saw very large “non-human beings” in their backyard just moments after an unidentified object crashed into their backyard. KLAS is reporting that on April 30th, around 11:50 PM, a strange object was recorded on Las Vegas Metro Police body cam, while streaking through the sky — presumably crashing near the family’s home. While on the phone with emergency dispatch, the seemingly frightened caller reported, “They’re like 8 foot, 9 feet, 10 foot. They look like aliens to us. Police were quick to respond — arriving to the scene just 30 minutes after their...

Because the US Department of Defence has announced that it will release a report on 'Unidentified Aerial Phenomena' (UAPs), which...

How to Build a FLYING SAUCER Declassified documents reveal Air Force’s plan to build a UFO Here's a quirky find from the National Archives: the United States Air Force's 1956 plan to build a saucer-shaped aircraft that would zip across the skies with the greatest of ease. As the Archives explain of "Project 1794, Final Development Summary Report": The Air Force had contracted the work out to a Canadian company, Avro Aircraft Limited in Ontario, to construct the disk-shaped craft. According to the same report, it was designed to be a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) plane designed to reach...

We've built a flying saucer, boasts Iran (even if it does look like it belongs in a 1950s B-movie) By Michael Theodoulou Last updated at 1:36 AM on 18th March 2011 It's not clear how far or how high it can fly – or even how big it is and what makes it take off. But an aircraft created by scientists in Iran is, they claim, the world’s first flying saucer. Called the Zohal - or Saturn in English - it said the unmanned spaceship is designed for 'aerial imaging' but added it can be used for 'various missions'. The...

As Hitler's armies began to crumble on fronts as far apart as Stalingrad and North Africa, he turned in increasing desperation to his scientists to create a war-winning super-weapon. Some, like the V2 rockets and the first jet fighters, saw action but came too late to halt defeat. Others were so outrageously ambitious that they never got past the drawing board. The idea of building flying saucers to bomb London and even New York could have been just such a scheme. But now it is claimed that Hitler’s scientists had indeed designed this type of aircraft – and were so...

THIS astonishing video footage is claimed to be the "most important images of a UFO ever filmed" – and is said to even depict ALIENS. The shots were captured by night guard Yalcin Yalman in a compound in Turkey earlier this year. The 42-year-old and a number of residents claim the UFOs were spotted over a four month period between May and September near the compound in Istanbul. He said: “I don’t know what these things are. We filmed them several times and they are totally unknown to us. I was very excited when I saw them and I want...

Mini flying saucer takes to the skies in Beijing Chinese company Harbin Smart Special Aerocraft has spent 12 years and over $4 million developing its unmanned flying saucers. Somewhat reminiscent of the Honeywell Micro Air Vehicle, the unmanned drone has propellers that run on methanol, a top speed of around 50mph, and can stay at an altitude of around 1,000 yards up for 40 minutes or so. Expect to see it being used for aerial photography, geological surveys and in people's LSD-fueled weird-outs. [DVICE]
