Trump UFO files reveal drone pilot’s encounter with ‘linear object’

In the UFO files released on Friday by the Trump administration, one document detailed an FBI interview with an unidentified drone pilot who recalled seeing a bright ‘linear object’ in the sky sometime in 2023.

‘The object was visible for five to ten seconds and then the light went out and the object vanished,’ according to the interview transcripts.

President Trump, who had teased the release of the files since early February, unsealed 162 documents to the general public today.

‘While all of the files have been reviewed for security purposes, many of the materials have not yet been analyzed for resolution of any anomalies,’ the Department of War statement read.

The United States Indo-Pacific Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon from an infrared sensor aboard a military platform in 2024.

The sensor focuses on an area of contrast that resembles a football-shaped body with three radial projections: one oriented vertically, and two oriented downward at a 45-degree angle relative to the major axis of the main mass.

Trump posted on Truth Social on Friday after the Department of War released the first batch of UFO files to the public.

‘As for my promise to you, the Department of War has released the first tranche of the UFO/UAP files to the Public for their review and study,’ the president began.

‘In an effort for Complete and Maximum Transparency, it was my Honor to direct my Administration to identify and provide Government files related to Alien and Extraterrestrial Life, Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, and Unidentified Flying Objects.’

‘Whereas previous Administrations have failed to be transparent on this subject, with these new Documents and Videos, the people can decide for themselves, “WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?” Have Fun and Enjoy! President DONALD J. TRUMP,’ he concluded.

The UFO files trove released Friday saw a 1965 Gemini 7 space mission transcript describing an astronaut’s encounter with a ‘brilliant body’ containing ‘trillions of particles.’

In a conversation between astronaut Frank Borman and the Manned Flight Center in Houston, Texas, Borman says that he had spotted ‘hundreds of particles going by to the left out about three or four miles’ outside of the space craft.

He then clarified that the object he saw was ‘a brilliant body in the sun against a black background with trillions of particles on it.’

The Gemini 7 was the 12th manned spaceflight by the United States with Borman and astronaut James ‘Jim’ Lovell aboard.

A bizarre glowing object resembling an ‘eight-pointed star’ streaking across the sky was among the most chilling videos released in Friday’s bombshell UFO disclosure.

The eerie infrared footage, captured by US military personnel in 2013, appears to show the strange object darting through the darkness with uneven, shape-shifting arms.

At one point, the military sensor zooms in as the mysterious object races through the frame, seemingly leaving behind a glowing trail.

The object was seen making abrupt movements, sharply changing direction and repeatedly vanishing from view before suddenly reappearing moments later.

The Trump administration’s explosive UFO files contained some of the most shocking documents of unidentified phenomena on Earth and in outer space to date.

Hundreds of previously unseen videos, photos and records tied to Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) and Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) were published on Friday.

Here are the most shocking photos and videos.

In an interview conducted with the FBI, a US senior intelligence official recollected his first hand account with a UAP at a US military facility.

The official relayed to FBI agents that he and other federal and state personnel conducted searches to where orbs had been previously seen at the time.

After searching the area with a helicopter, the team found a ‘super-hot’ orb hovering over the ground. The orb is reported to have travelled for 20 miles at a speed too fast for the helicopter in pursuit.

An additional ‘swarm’ of lights were seen moving in several directions before four to five additional orbs appeared to ‘flare up and down’ for thirty minutes across the area.

An FBI memo found in the UFO files released Friday details a witnesses experience with ‘three and a half to 4 feet tall’ aliens wearing ‘space suits and helmets.’

The sighting was detailed in a book titled Flying Saucers – Serious Business authored by Frank Edwards in June 1966 and recounts several global UFO sightings from Russia to Scandinavia.

It claimed that 1965 was ‘the year of the greatest number of UFO sightings and that these were observed by multiple people’, describing UFOs as polished metal objects radiating heat and light that burned witnesses who were too near.

Edwards said that those named in the book who had the encounters were reliable individuals including law enforcement officers, military personnel on official duty, commercial and military airline pilots and civil defense officials.

Many of the sightings were reported from ‘atomic and missile research areas.’

It was noted in the memo that the author concluded his book with a prediction that UFOs will make an ‘overt landing’ or deliberate contact with Earth in the near future.

In a post to X on Friday, FBI Director Kash Patel said that the agency was committed ‘to supporting this rolling declassification effort’ of the UFO files by the Trump administration.

He went on to say that the FBI ‘will continue working 24/7 with this administration and our interagency partners to give Americans the transparency they deserve.’

Tennessee Representative Tim Burchett warned that this cache of UFO files will be a ‘drop in the bucket’ compared to what else will be released.

‘Remember the Feds told us these files didn’t exist and @realDonaldTrump stood up to the deep state,’ Burchett wrote on X.

‘The 1st drop will be big but in comparison to what is coming they will be a drop in the bucket. I would say “Holy Crap” is coming.’
