An 'orb' UFO was shot out the sky and retrieved by the US Navy during a 1962 missile test, a former top aide to four US presidents revealed.

Harald Malmgren was a senior advisor to John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon, and Gerald Ford.

The retired government official said he was briefed by top CIA and Atomic Energy Commission officials on a videotaped missile test that took place during the Cuban Missile Crisis of October 1962, during which the shocking UFO incident occurred.

Malmgren's daughter, economist Dr. Pippa Malmgren, herself a former Special Assistant to President George W. Bush, revealed the details of her father's story on her blog last week, after the veteran presidential aide passed away on February 13 aged 89.

It wasn't supposed to be this way.

For some time, relationships had been carefully cultivated with members of the new Trump administration.

Lue Elizondo, Former head of the Pentagon's UAP investigation program, AATIP (Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program) had even made multiple appearances on Donald Trump Jr.'s podcast.

Key positions were filled by individuals who had previously advocated for greater transparency on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP). Notably, the newly appointed Secretary of State, Marco Rubio, even appears in a documentary film exploring what is claimed to be the greatest cover-up of all time — one involving multiple groups of non-human intelligence.

Under the Trump administration, it had been expected that a key appointment would be made within the National Security Council to orchestrate the disclosure of UAP information. For once, we were set to see the full muscle of the White House backing UAP transparency.

The Age of Disclosure, a provocative new documentary that argues for the existence of extraterrestrials, has drawn gasps and criticism at the SXSW film festival.

A splashy new documentary that asserts the presence of extraterrestrial life on Earth and alleges a US government effort to hide information on possible alien activity is making waves at SXSW.

The Age of Disclosure expounds upon years of congressional activity and testimony surrounding the presence of Unexplained Anomalous Phenomena (or UAP, a rebranding of the stigmatized UFO), in the United States, drawing both buzz and skepticism at the Austin, Texas-based cultural festival.

The film, directed by Dan Farah, features 34 military and intelligence veterans with direct knowledge of or experience with UAPs. All testify to the presence of alien flying objects and, for some, extraterrestrial beings on Earth. Some also allege a government cover-up of supposedly paradigm-shifting information - an effort that the film's lead subject, Luis Elizondo, a member of the government's Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), deemed "the most successful disinformation campaign in the history of the US government", representing "80 years of lies and deception".

Flights were suspended at Gaziantep Airport on Monday night after pilots reported a luminous, unidentified flying object (UFO).

At around 10:00 p.m. local time (GMT+3), pilots of an aircraft reported spotting a bright, unidentified object at an altitude of approximately 8,000 to 10,000 feet.

UFO alert in Türkiye's 6th biggest city led to a brief chaos at the airport. Gaziantep is located in southeastern Türkiye, near the Syrian border.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and some of President Trump's most vocal supporters in the House do not agree on much, but they are in agreement that the government is hiding critical information on UFOs — also known as unidentified anomalous phenomena or UAP — from the American public.

Schumer and key House Republicans say that the government must come clean on what it knows about this decades-long mystery, which has seen 80 years of highly credible, consistent, multi-witness reporting of objects exhibiting extreme performance characteristics.

On Feb. 11, House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) announced the establishment of the Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.), a member of the bipartisan UAP Caucus, will lead the effort.

FBI agents who investigate UFOs worried they could be pushed out in possible purge

FBI agents who are part of a secretive group investigating the surge of "unidentified anomalous phenomena," what the government uses to refer to UFOs, are worried that they could lose their jobs in a possible FBI purge targeting officials who worked on Jan. 6 cases, according to four people familiar with the matter.

All agents across the bureau have been ordered to fill out a questionnaire about their work on the Capitol attack. There are worries that the move could lead to a Trump-ordered purge at the agency, said the people, some of whom were granted anonymity to discuss personnel matters.

Ryan Graves, executive director of Americans for Safe Aerospace and a former Navy pilot, said:
"I have spoken to several agents from the UAP Working Group who are afraid of losing their role and the investigation getting unintentionally compromised. I am concerned that the FBI's UAP Working Group could be affected by transition changes, and these leaders might not be aware of the incredible work these agents are doing and how their investigation could be empowered as part of a formalized intergovernmental effort."
The existence of the FBI's informal working group on the issue has not been disclosed publicly before. Graves and three other people familiar with the group said it consists of a national program manager and more than a dozen employees across the country who spend much of their time tracking down UAPs.

On the drones, nothing to see here, just some research?

In late 2024, residents of New Jersey and beyond were left bewildered by nightly drone incursions, with reports emerging of large, sophisticated drones evading traditional detection methods. The phenomenon, initially dismissed as a figment of imagination and mass hysteria, soon escalated into a national security concern, as these unidentified drones were spotted not only over civilian areas but also near critical military installations.

The Biden administration remained largely dismissive on the matter, and when President Donald Trump took office, his administration promised answers. However, the explanation provided by the Trump White House this past week raises more questions than it answers.

On January 28, 2025, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that the FAA authorized the drones for research and recreational purposes. She further emphasized that the public need not worry, as these drones were operated by commercial entities, hobbyists and private individuals. Yet, this explanation does not square with the facts. If these were legally authorized flights, why were local, state and federal authorities, including the Department of Defense (DoD), unable to determine their origin in real-time? Moreover, why did the DoD publicly acknowledge the drones were sighted over multiple military facilities, including Picatinny Arsenal and Naval Weapons Station Earle, with no ability to identify their operators?

Comment: We can connect the dots we are privy to see...leading us precisely where they want us to go.

Flashback Dozens more mystery drone incursions over US nuclear power plants revealed

I recently described how a swarm of drones flew in a restricted area at Palo Verde Nuclear Power Plant on two successive nights last September. A new cache of documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act (FoIA) reveals how 24 nuclear sites suffered at least 57 drone incursions from 2015 to 2019 - and Palo Verde itself was overflown again in December, despite new security measures.

The documents were obtained from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission by Douglas D. Johnson on behalf of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies (SCU). The SCU's main interest is in anomalous aerospace phenomena, more commonly known as UFOs, but Johnson uncovered a series of incidents involving something less exotic but potentially more threatening: commercial drones.

Johnson sent a follow-up request to get more details. The response was a terse list of fifty-seven security incidents (SIDs) involving drones, running from December 2014 to October 2019. This provides little more than the date and location, with no details of the number or type of drones involved. We do not know how many involved multiple, simultaneous drone flyovers. At the time the list was generated, three of the incidents were listed as 'Open' and five 'Closed Resolved.' but the overwhelming majority, 49 of them, were 'Closed Unresolved.' This indicates that for 85% of the cases the NRC has no idea who the perpetrators are or what they intended, and has given up on finding them.

Comment: One wonders what the author would make of the current flap.

An incursion of drones: An attempt to make sense of the recent phenomena

Since about mid-November of 2024, an incursion of aerial 'drones' on the East Coast (primarily in New Jersey and New York) has been spotted by hundreds if not thousands of witnesses. They are seen mostly at night and have been repeatedly observed in the airspace above sensitive military bases and installments, such as the Picatinny Arsenal Military Base and the Naval Weapons Station Earle (NJ). The drones have been so persistent in the skies above some of our military bases that the FAA was compelled to issue a temporary flight restriction, something which the drones have chosen to ignore.

Due to public pressure, the Morris County Prosecutor's Office (NJ) issued a statement on November 19th declaring that the drones pose "no known threat to public safety." How they can be certain of this without knowing precisely the nature and capabilities of these so-called 'drones' seems rather premature.

Interestingly, the flurry of drone activity did not just begin in November of 2024 in New Jersey, but in December of 2023 at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia for a period of 17 days!

Eight Wyoming sheriffs seeing mystery drones still have no answers

© UnknownWyoming sheriffs are reporting seeing drones over some sensitive areas, like power plants and oil fields.
The White House says the drones over New Jersey last year were authorized. But that doesn't explain what multiple Wyoming sheriffs who reached out to Cowboy State Daily (radio) say they're seeing over power plants and oil fields.

At least eight Wyoming sheriffs have received reports of mysterious drone activity in recent weeks.

Three of those have documented mystery drone sightings over energy infrastructure, like power plants and oil and gas fields, the sheriffs told Cowboy State Daily on Wednesday.

The outlet reached out to every sheriff in Wyoming on Tuesday and Wednesday, after President Donald Trump announced that similar mystery drones spotted over New Jersey late last year were not from enemy sources. Trump's spokeswoman said Tuesday that the drones were authorized by the Federal Aviation Administration.


Comment: This is only part of the story with no accounting for 'particular drone' distinctions or origins.


The president's assurance with respect to New Jersey drones contains slightly more information than the federal government ventured last year. But it's not enough to diminish multiple Wyoming sheriffs' concerns over sightings in their own counties.
