Pentagon releases declassified videos showing UFOs

The Pentagon has confirmed that images and videos showing unidentified flying objects buzzing over Navy warships off the coast of California were taken by Navy personnel. 

The photos and videos were gathered by the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) Task Force and leaked to filmmaker Jeremy Corbell.

One of the videos recorded in 2019 shows what appears to be pyramid shaped objects hovering above a Navy destroyer, according to Mystery Wire. Mr Corbell said the video was taken on deployment from the USS Russell.

He said he verified the video’s authenticity after gaining information from a Pentagon intelligence briefing in which officials confirmed the footage was shot by US Navy personnel, according to New York Post.

Mr Corbell said that the briefing listed multiple events involving several ships in July 2019 and there were some drone sightings on 14 and 15 July.

“And by the way, on the other ships, they had different things that happened. So some were just like lights that did figure-eights and patterns and 90 degree turns. Others were like a different colour light, like red,” he told Mystery Wire.

A Pentagon spokesperson confirmed that the photos and videos were taken by Navy personnel and the UAP Task Force has “included these incidents in their ongoing examinations.”

This comes just a week after Admiral Michael Gilday, the chief of naval operations, said he had no idea where the drones that chased US destroyers originated. 

The Pentagon announced last year the establishment of the UAP Task Force to “improve its understanding of, and gain insight into, the nature and origins of UAPs.” The mission of the task force “is to detect, analyse and catalog UAPs that could potentially pose a threat to US national security.”

A report by the task force is expected to be released by June.

      UFO = Unidentified Fuzzy Object. Given the extraordinary high resolutions of todays cameras, even cell phones, why is every picture of a UFO, Fuzzy? The answer to this puzzling question is simple, it is because UFO's are fuzzy. The are like soft toys with only with more hair or fuzz. Another explanation, they are stealthy and create a blurry visible light forcefield around them.

        This footage is that taked by Commander Fravor no? It isn’t new footage and there is a lot more detail around it than in this article if you care to look it up. I don’t see what the new story is here, is there new footage? If so where is it?

          It's a lens artifact (out of focus highlights with the same shape as the lens aperture). It's quite a coincidence that the 'flashing' is at the same rate as the navigation lights on an airliner.

            Were all in a simulation and these are the mods/bots. You have to get to level twenty just to be able to see them, so were doing pretty well. If you take all your clothes off and run up your street naked you automatically get bounced up to level 22.

              I have to reply to this. #1 this probably is some sort of simulation that creates "reality", and debatable if "God does not play dice", if there is something beyond this "simulation". #2 I took 5 doses of normal strong dose of 3.5 grams of dried shrooms (for a total of 17.5 grams, that's all I remember our dealer with a trash bag of shrooms remarking during the night, while laughing) when I was 20 and ran down a New England street at 6 am in the morning in February, naked. The police took levels from me detoxing me in the hospital.

            All the sophisticated sensing equipment the military has at its disposal and still the best we get is vague blobs. Usually in IR or some kind of image intensifier, both notorious for sometimes making misleading images. Then people spin the most ludicrous explanations out of blobs. Do people really think they would release such footage if they thought there was the slightest chance it was really an alien? Most probably the military analysts already know what this was and are now having a good laugh at the people talking about space aliens.

              Take note that this article contained very little helpful information. What size were they, their distance from any ship or aircraft, what altitude, how long in the area, what were they made of, and so forth?

              To come to any definitive conclusion, all other probable explanations must be eliminated. The "what else could it be" argument is an appeal to ignorance and isn't proof of anything except that you don't know something. Ever since Project Bluebook, the same recurring theme has been played; it's just a matter of time before the government admits the truth.

              I'm not saying that somewhere in the immeasurable vastness of the cosmos, a higher form of intelligence doesn't exist. Whether they have ever visited this tiny speck of cosmic dust or that we would recognize them if they did is yet to be proven. I do know if one of "them" lands in my yard, I'm going to ask for a ride!

                I knew that this new footage was going to be released, they stated as much about a month ago.

                When the aviator says, 'theres a whole fleet of them'

                I know they captured the whole fleet on camera.

                Thats the bit I was waiting for and its not here. Have they released it?

                  Ford sucks, and so does their Truck ads for this site.

                    There's a rumour that they have some high technology that hasn't been disclosed and they are using that to create A FALSE FLAG NARATIVE of the threat of aliens to secure more military funding.

                    Truman back in the late 50s said the military-industrial complex are out of control. They have become a shadow government, able to start wars, start panics, pursue false flags to have to have their way in the corridors of power.

                    Basically it's wish fulfilment and playing on people's fears after years of "programming" by alien threat movies. You do remember Orson Wells and the mass-hysteria created by his radio rendition of H G Wells' "War of the Worlds"?

                      The planes crew knew they were carrying a "different" kind of weapon, but they had no understand of how different it was. Paul Tibbets Jr. was perhaps the only member of the Enola Gay that had a rudimentary idea what an "atomic" bomb was. Even he was unaware of the immense destructive power that Little Boy would unleash.

                      It is extremely well documented. The plane was selected for the mission by a member of the crew while it was still being constructed. The crew knew exactly what they were doing, as did the crew that bombed Nagasaki three days later. You could argue they didn't know exactly how it would go, but the flight commander had witnessed the test detonations so it's a stretch. As for "it completely blew them away" - I assume you're referring to the buffeting of moving air that caused some turbulence for both Enola Gay and their support plane (and zero damage).

                    In the whole universe aliens visit mainly the USA. Just saying there is a whole world here, how come non have landed in Sweden for instance?

                      All that is irrelevant to the subject of "ufos". Whatever it is, it's always been a global "thing".

                    • Reply by LynchJohn.

                      The answer is that they don't just mainly interfere with the US and it is a worldwide phenomenon and has been for hundreds of years and more.
