The summer after Trinity: Jose Padilla recalls a craft and three small figures

Jose Padilla says he was nine when he and his friend Remigio Baca heard an explosion near San Antonio, New Mexico. At first they thought it was another bomb test. Then, he says, they saw smoke rising from the ground, an unfamiliar craft and three small figures moving around it. Nearly eighty years later, Padilla returned to that memory in a filmed news interview.

DOW-UAP-PR46 contains a nine-second infrared recording made in 2024 by a US military platform in the East China Sea near Japan. The object was described as resembling an American football, but without exact timing, range and telemetry its size, speed and origin cannot be established.

How Italy reports a UFO: from the Carabinieri to the Air Force

In Italy, a civilian reporting an unidentified phenomenon completes a form and submits it to a Carabinieri station. The Air Force checks for natural and human causes, publishes the event and retains the UFO classification only when no technical or natural explanation is found.

The US National Archives now lists official series received from eight agencies, including the FBI, NSA, Air Force, State Department and FAA. It is a concrete step toward a public UAP archive, but an agency name on the page does not mean every record is digitised, open or fully searchable.

Amy Eskridge spoke publicly about antigravity research and information she said she encountered accidentally about ultraterrestrials, future humans called P47 and P52. After her death at 34, associates also described surveillance and injuries attributed to a directed energy weapon. This investigation separates her documented words from the claims that remain unverified.

The six-pointed object over Ukraine: military footage held for a year

A Ukrainian military camera recorded a bright, star-like source in May 2025. The clip reached electronic-warfare specialist and Defense Ministry adviser Serhii 'Flash' Beskrestnov, who published it on May 11, 2026 and cited an altitude of 800 metres. The upload is real, but the available copy lacks the raw sensor file, location and telemetry needed to identify what the camera recorded.

Danny Sheehan at Yale: claims of undersea bases, abductions and a hybrid programme

At a teach-in held at Yale University, attorney Daniel Sheehan presented a far-reaching account of what he says US intelligence agencies know about a non-human presence. He described bases in remote mountains and beneath the sea, activity near Guadalupe Island and a programme that produces hybrid offspring. The three videos preserve his words directly. This article connects them with military testimony, statements by members of Congress and seabed mapping imagery already in the public record.

Structures on the Moon: the photographs Lue Elizondo says may soon emerge, and the tower John Lear described twenty years ago

Lue Elizondo says unreleased photographs show large monolithic structures with right angle cuts on the lunar surface. More than twenty years earlier, John Lear described an immense tower in Sinus Medii during an Art Bell broadcast. These are not two accounts of the same photograph. Placed carefully beside one another, however, they raise a precise question: what exists in the material that has not yet been shown, and what could be tested if it is released?

Journalist Ross Coulthart says his sources describe an active program around White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico that attempts to attract, track and sometimes bring down UAP for recovery.

Danny Sheehan: the claim that recovered craft require a conscious interface and a non-human pilot

Attorney Daniel Sheehan says U.S. elements possess craft of non-human origin and that attempts to operate them met an unusual barrier: the control system allegedly depends on consciousness and telepathic communication. He has even raised the possibility of an arrangement in which a non-human party assists with piloting. The claim is specific and extraordinary, but publicly it remains Sheehan's testimony.

Together they represent 86.4% of the 941 closed cases in the table.
