Mystery deepens in new UFO files

Washington: Newly released Pentagon files on unidentified anomalous phenomena describe unexplained sightings but provide no evidence of alien life or govt cover-ups.

Among the 72 documents is a report on a Feb 2022 sighting near Fort Carson, Colora­do, where 5 US Army men observed a “potato-shaped” object with shimmering, fish-scale-like panels hovering above Cheyenne Mountain be­fore vanishing. Investigators suggested it may have been sunlight reflecting off snow and illuminating clouds, though witnesses disagreed.

Another report examined sightings by 6 federal law enforcement agents in Oct 2023. They reported seeing a bright orange orb that appea­red to generate smaller red orbs. Military flares and developmental US technology were considered possible explanations, but investigators reach­ed no conclusion. –Agencies
