The Pentagon on Friday released a second batch of UFO Files in the United States, publishing documents, audio recordings and videos that describe reported sightings of orbs, discs and fireballs across roughly 80 years, including a 2025 account from a senior US intelligence officer who said he saw 'countless orange orbs swarming in all directions.'
This followed an order earlier this year from US President Donald Trump, after the Pentagon uploaded an initial tranche of 161 files on 8 May and said more material would follow. Friday's release was billed as the next instalment, not the final word, which is an important distinction in a subject that attracts more heat than light.
