Overview
- The Pentagon posted the fourth tranche on Friday, adding 40 files composed of 14 documents, 19 videos, four audio recordings and three images from agencies including the Pentagon, NASA, CIA, FBI and the Department of Energy.
- New sensor footage includes a 2025 infrared clip from U.S. Indo‑Pacific Command showing a multi‑pointed, star‑shaped contrast over the Yellow Sea and an earlier 2020 infrared recording of a jellyfish‑like object over the Atlantic.
- A Department of Energy report in the release details a 2015 intrusion over the Pantex nuclear weapons plant in Texas where security officers chased a silent, diamond‑shaped object during a temporary lockdown.
- Officials and the All‑domain Anomaly Resolution Office caution the files are informational, largely unresolved because of redactions and limited sensor metadata, and should not be read as evidence of extraterrestrial activity.
- The tranche mixes recent incidents with Cold War and NASA records—including 1949 Los Alamos 'green fireballs' and Space Shuttle/Apollo imagery—and officials say more declassification and analysis will follow.
