In the first wave of the 2026 declassifications, the FBI archives—voluminous folders marked "flying discs" spanning from 1947 to the late 1960s—command particular attention. While these documents provide no definitive conclusions, they contain a range of testimonies that continue to capture the intense interest of researchers today.
1950年にニューメキシコ州に墜落していたUFOに乗っていた宇宙人の特徴 身長が約90センチ、歯があり、金髪、服を着用 めっちゃ人間の見た目で、しかも髪の毛染めてるんか！！ 英文翻訳：
The summer of 1947 was marked by a genuine surge in reported sightings. In one memo sent from Dallas to headquarters, an agent recounts information from an Air Force major regarding a hexagonal "flying disc" reportedly recovered near Roswell that was attached to a large balloon. This document remains among the most heavily discussed items in the new release.
🚨 FRESH FROM Trump’s PURSUE Release 01 on war.gov/ufo/ — a 1966 FBI memo (SF 62-2927) straight from the San Francisco office: “A few witnesses have reported seeing crewmen who had landed from the objects, who are described as three and a half to four feet tall,
Guy Hottel’s March 1950 memo remains one of the most famous records. Citing an informed source, it details three "flying saucers" that supposedly crashed in New Mexico. The objects are described as circular and measuring approximately 50 feet (15 meters) in diameter. Inside were the bodies of three beings roughly 90 centimeters tall, clad in metallic clothing. The FBI recorded this information, though it never officially confirmed its accuracy.
Even more detailed reports emerge in documents from the 1960s. A memo from the San Francisco office, sent directly to J. Edgar Hoover, compiles testimonies from police officers, pilots, military personnel, and defense industry employees. Eyewitnesses described beings between 1 and 1.2 meters tall emerging from landed craft while wearing spacesuits and helmets. After the objects took off, scorched circles remained on the ground. Craft shapes varied from discs and egg-shaped vessels to cigar-like cylinders. Numerous witnesses noted the objects' ability to hover motionless in the air before abruptly accelerating to immense speeds.
The FBI also documented cases of electromagnetic interference, including sudden car engine failures, radio communication disruptions, and objects vanishing from radar screens. Pilots reported encounters with objects traveling at speeds far beyond the capabilities of contemporary aviation technology.
Most of these reports consist of third-party accounts or unverified claims. The Bureau systematically gathered information but typically deferred cases to military authorities, avoiding its own definitive assessments. Nonetheless, the tone of the documents remains serious, reflecting consistent observations from a variety of sources, including trained professionals.
The FBI files, published on the war.gov/UFO portal, illustrate how U.S. intelligence agencies have regularly encountered phenomena since the mid-20th century that could not be explained by the scientific or technical means of the time. These materials do not prove the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations, but they do demonstrate the government's sustained interest in the phenomenon over several decades.
Now, anyone can study the primary sources for themselves and form their own opinion on what intelligence services were recording during an era when the topic of UAPs was still strictly classified.
