What belongs here
Department of Defense releases, AARO case pages, PURSUE files, National Archives catalog material, FBI Vault records, CIA Reading Room documents, and mainstream reporting about those releases.
Government records hub
Government UFO files are records first, disclosure claims second.
美国政府 UFO / UAP 文件
A source-backed hub for UAP files, government UFO records, Pentagon releases, AARO cases, PURSUE records, National Archives material, FBI Vault files, and reporting around official disclosure.
Why it is separate from UFO
The main UFO hub covers sightings, famous cases, aliens, evidence, and debunks. This page stays focused on government files, declassified documents, archive trails, and official release cycles.
Current hotspot
Recent Pentagon and PURSUE releases include reported objects described as discs, orbs, and a potato-shaped UAP over Colorado. Those reports are tracked here as source updates unless they clear the case threshold.
Release trail
Official releases and current reporting
These are topical lanes for the special page. They are not all standalone public cases until they clear the source threshold.
Official release
First PURSUE release
The initial official release opened the PURSUE UAP records lane and established the government source trail that later reporting built on.
Open case fileOfficial release
Second UAP file release
The second release expanded the video/document set and created follow-on candidate clusters, but most items still need source diversity before becoming standalone cases.
Review source trailCurrent hotspot
Third release and the Colorado potato UAP
The third release drove the AP, KKTV, NYT, and local Colorado reporting wave around discs, orbs, and a potato-shaped object reported near Fort Carson and Cheyenne Mountain.

FAQ
Do government UFO files prove aliens are real?
No. They prove that a report, file, release, video, or official review exists. The interpretation still depends on source quality, context, and competing explanations.
What are the best sources for UAP files?
Start with AARO, PURSUE, National Archives UAP material, FBI Vault UFO files, CIA Reading Room documents, and Project Blue Book records.
Is the Colorado potato UAP a separate case?
Not yet. It is currently better treated as a news update inside the broader PURSUE and Pentagon UAP files release trail.
