President Trump on Thursday directed his administration to release files on UFOs and any "alien and extraterrestrial life," an issue that has drawn decades of public fascination — and spawned more than a few wild theories.

President Trump is holding onto a speech detailing extraterrestrial life and spaceships, according to his daughter-in-law Lara Trump, who said the president is waiting for the right time to deliver it. Lara Trump, speaking on the Pod Force One podcast, said the president has played coy when she and her husband Eric have asked about the existence of UFO’s and aliens. “We’ve kind of asked my father-in-law about this… we all want to know about the UFOs… and he played a little coy with us,” Lara Trump said. “I’ve heard kind of around, I think my father-in-law has actually said...

Just last night, I received some sad news about Nick Pope. He published a brief message that said: A while ago, following some digestive issues, I was diagnosed with esophageal cancer. Unfortunately, it's Stage 4 and has metastasized to my liver. While I know that it's kindness and hope that leads people to suggest healers and supposed miracle cures, and to say things like "fight it", and "you can beat it", I'm afraid my diagnosis and my situation leaves no doubt whatsoever: I can't beat it.

Coming off back-to-back blockbusters — “Top Gun: Maverick” and “F1: The Movie” — director Joseph Kosinski can likely make just about any movie he wants. Call it carte blanche. In fact, that’s exactly what he’s doing, as he’s set to helm two projects: a “Miami Vice” reboot at Universal Pictures, written by Dan Gilroy, and, more intriguingly, an untitled UFO film centered on government whistleblowers. Speaking to Deadline’s Pete Hammond, Kosinski discussed his hopes of securing Michael Mann’s involvement in the “Miami Vice” reboot, given that Mann was behind both the original television series and the 2006 feature film starring...

The Ivan Sanderson Papers hold an amazing array of archival material, covering topics from natural history to radio and television programming to cryptozoology. Sanderson was a prominent zoologist in the mid 20th century who turned his attention to less mainstream scientific fields like ufology and cryptozoology.

After working in counter-espionage for the British Naval Intelligence during World War II, he began to focus on his academic pursuits. Sanderson used the media to bring information about the natural sciences to a wider audience. In the...

Secretary of State Marco Rubio is one of many high-profile individuals who have raised questions about alleged secret UAP programs run by the Pentagon. The subject of unidentified anomalous phenomena, or what most people call UFOs, has been of increasing interest following whistleblower testimony from David Grusch, who alleged the Pentagon has been operating a top-secret UFO program.

Eric Davis, an astrophysicist who was a scientific advisor on the since-disbanded Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program, created by Congress in 2007 by late Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV), claimed that Bush (Sr.) confirmed to him in a private conversation details of contact between the military and an alien creature at Holloman Air Force Base in Otero County.

Fox News anchor Bret Baier interviewed David Grusch, the Air Force intelligence officer turned whistleblower who previously testified before Congress about secret U.S. crash-retrieval programs involving non-human craft. In the interview, Grusch reaffirms and strengthens his core claims: 1. The U.S. has recovered non-human craft and biological remains. He states directly that the government has retrieved vehicles of non-human origin, and that non-human biological entities were recovered with some of them. 2. He personally saw classified reports and photographic evidence. Baier presses him: “With your own eyes you saw it?” Grusch answers: “Yes.” He says he had partial access to...

The Age of Disclosure explores what the filmmakers contend is an eight-decade effort by world powers to conceal evidence of non-human intelligence. The documentary gathers testimony from 34 individuals connected to the U.S. military, intelligence agencies and government, all of whom discuss long-standing secrecy surrounding unidentified aerial phenomena and recovered materials. It also highlights claims that global superpowers, including the United States, China and Russia, are engaged in a covert technological race to study and potentially replicate advanced craft believed to be of extraterrestrial origin. At the center of the film is Luis “Lue” Elizondo, the former leader of the...

"The Age of Disclosure" director Dan Farah believes "it's only a matter of time" before a sitting president "tells the world we're not alone in the universe." The most significant presidential announcement in human history might be just around the corner.

What did Jesus really know about the Book of Enoch and the Nephilim giants? Does the Bible hint at “extraterrestrials” cohabiting with mankind in a forgotten golden age? Glenn Beck sits down with ‪@TimothyAlberino‬ for a mind-blowing conversation that connects the dots from Genesis 6 to the coming post-human apocalypse. As futurists like Yuval Harari openly declare the end of humanity, gene editing, artificial wombs, IVF, and transhumanism are rapidly remaking man in a new image. Alberino issues a chilling wake-up call to Christians: “There’s only one qualification for redemption at the cross of Christ — you must be human.”...

For decades, military pilots, radar operators and ordinary citizens have reported strange objects darting through the skies, often dismissed by officials or buried under classification. Despite congressional hearings and government task forces, little clarity has emerged about what Americans are actually seeing. Now, the director of a new explosive documentary is pulling back the curtain on that mystery. Director and producer Dan Farah sat down with Fox News’ Bret Baier Friday to discuss his new documentary, "The Age of Disclosure." "For a very long time, the public, Congress and even the president have been kept out of the loop on...

wrong. “‘We just had an asset go down. We had an asset go down,'” Arnu recalled. “This is not Creech security. This is Area 51 security, and they had an asset go down. Then the next thing you hear, UAV, unmanned aircraft, unmanned aircraft with ordnance.” He picked up details that strict security measures were implemented almost immediately. Not only was Area 51 itself locked down, but within a very short time, so too was a large swath of the Tiikaboo Valley.

A popular UFO-reporting app has been making waves after reportedly recording tens of thousands of mysterious underwater objects up and down the United States’ coastlines, raising eyebrows and leaving experts with more questions than answers regarding their origin. Enigma, a non-partisan organization that boasts its "largest queryable historical sighting database for global UFO sightings," has recorded roughly 30,000 UFO sightings since its launch in 2022, according to the company’s website. However, users have turned their attention away from the skies in the hunt for proof that life may exist elsewhere.

For the first time, a team of scientists has found a “statistically significant” correlation between historical UAP reports and nuclear weapons tests. The researchers analyzed historical photographs taken by the Palomar Observatory in California, and they uncovered a number of mysterious bright spots in the night sky.

Recent images purportedly depicting the interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS during its closest approach to Mars last week have erupted in controversy online, as many took to social media with theories about what the object’s unusual shape could mean about its nature and origins. The new images obtained last week by NASA’s Perseverance rover appear to show 3I/ATLAS streaking through the Martian night sky as it passed through the field of view of the robotic explorer’s Right Navigation Camera (Navcam) from its position in Jezero Crater. The recent imagery was originally uploaded to NASA’s multimedia page in raw format. Since that time,...
