00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.879
This morning a trove of images showing

00:00:02.520 --> 00:00:07.480
decades of unidentified objects is

00:00:04.879 --> 00:00:09.800
sparking curiosity among starry-eyed

00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:12.800
enthusiasts. The Pentagon releasing

00:00:09.800 --> 00:00:15.320
photos, videos, and reports of some 400

00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:18.240
unresolved UFO sightings from the past

00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:20.879
80 years, including this infrared video

00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:23.679
from 2013 taken somewhere in the Middle

00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:25.960
East by the US military. It appears to

00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:28.679
show a star-shaped object flying

00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:31.920
erratically and leaving a trail behind.

00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:34.280
And in this audio from 1965, astronaut

00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:36.760
Frank Borman can be heard documenting an

00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:39.359
unidentified object while aboard Gemini

00:00:36.759 --> 00:00:39.359
7.

00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:46.039
NASA transcripts from 4 years later are

00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:48.280
also part of this release. Buzz Aldrin

00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:51.320
telling the government he saw a possible

00:00:48.280 --> 00:00:55.079
laser in space. And these images taken

00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:57.480
from the Apollo 17 mission in 1972

00:00:55.079 --> 00:00:59.879
show strange lights observed in space

00:00:57.479 --> 00:01:02.119
from the moon. Every Apollo mission has

00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:04.519
reported similar lights. There these

00:01:02.119 --> 00:01:07.000
really cool snapshots of what it's like

00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:08.640
to be an astronaut exploring new things

00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:09.959
for the first time. And then to see

00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:11.760
things that

00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:13.640
they at first couldn't explain. The

00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:16.080
Pentagon says this is the first of what

00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:18.079
will be several declassified document

00:01:16.079 --> 00:01:20.000
dumps about the unidentified object

00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:22.799
sightings at the direction of President

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:25.480
Trump. The president now touts complete

00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:27.959
and maximum transparency writing it's up

00:01:25.480 --> 00:01:30.040
to the public to decide for themselves

00:01:27.959 --> 00:01:32.000
what the hell is going on. These files

00:01:30.040 --> 00:01:33.840
released by the Pentagon do not give any

00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:35.719
solid evidence for life beyond Earth or

00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:38.040
alien life in general. But that doesn't

00:01:35.719 --> 00:01:41.200
mean we aren't continuing the

00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:43.040
investigation and the search for life.

00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:44.760
Now, while this this release gives a new

00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:45.920
way for people to view these files, a

00:01:44.760 --> 00:01:48.320
large portion of the incidents

00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:50.240
themselves have been publicly available

00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:51.919
and many were taken from military bases

00:01:50.239 --> 00:01:54.640
which tend to have a higher level of

00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:56.240
surveillance. So, with no certainty with

00:01:54.640 --> 00:01:56.879
the search and the speculation

00:01:56.239 --> 00:01:58.280
continues.

00:01:56.879 --> 00:02:00.479
>> Okay, my

00:01:58.280 --> 00:02:03.320
is piqued. Thank you very much. We

00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:03.320
appreciate it.
