EXCLUSIVE - CIA's top psychic spy saw an ancient city on Mars... then something terrible happened to the beings living there

By ROB WAUGH FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

In May 1984, a CIA psychic spy claimed he traveled through space and time to see the end of a thriving civilization on Mars. Now, more people who claim they have seen the same vision are sharing the horrific ending of the Martian race.

A man who identified himself only as 'Brady' told the Daily Mail he possessed the ability to practice astral projection - where your awareness leaves your physical body and travels elsewhere while you remain connected to it.

Using this technique, Brady claimed he found himself in a terrifying vision on Mars, but a Mars that was inhabited by alien creatures in the distant past.

The man claimed the experience was 'heartbreaking and drastic' as an apocalyptic blue wave wiped out the Martian civilization.

Brady said: 'Everyone suddenly panicked, most looked up, others ran. There were screams and panic echoing off the side of buildings, I stared up and pierced my eyes through the bright daylight and there was a celestial body hurling towards the planet.'

'It was circular in shape, profoundly large, I felt a sigh of desperation and acceptance of fate,' he continued.

At this point, Brady claimed he watched in horror as the ground shook and a giant wave emerged from the horizon, swallowing up everything in its path.

Brady and others over the years have claimed they saw this destruction on Mars, describing the apocalypse with almost the exact same details as CIA remote reviewer Joe McMoneagle - who was tasked with seeing life on Mars one million years ago.

In the 1970s and 1980s, the CIA carried out repeated experiments with individuals who had allegedly been trained to perceive information about distant places, locations or people - calling these operatives 'remote viewers.'

The Cold War effort mainly targeted Russia's Soviet Union, and McMoneagle has widely been regarded as the agency's best remote viewer, using his ability to see inside top-secret facilities - like a Soviet hangar building a new type of submarine in 1979.

During the 1984 experiment, which was part of the CIA's Project Stargate, the secretive US military program to weaponize remote viewing abilities, McMoneagle was handed a paper card with a new target printed on it.

This time, his target to psychically visit was: 'The planet Mars. Time of interest, approximately one million years BC.'

McMoneagle has said in interviews since the operation that he was not told what he would be looking at, adding that his visions of a civilized Mars came spontaneously.

Guided by coordinates on the Martian surface given to him by intelligence officials, McMoneagle 'visited' the Cydonia Mensae region - the location of the 'Face on Mars' photo taken by the Viking orbiter.

McMoneagle told his supervisor in a now-declassified report: 'I kind of got an oblique view of a pyramid or pyramid form. It's very high. It's kind of sitting in a large, depressed area. It's yellowish, okra colored.'

Instructed to 'move in time,' McMoneagle then encountered visions of what seemed to be a dying alien race on the Red Planet.

McMoneagle added in his remote viewing transcript: 'I'm seeing... it's like a perception of a shadow of people, very tall... thin. It's only a shadow. It's as if they were there and they're not, not there anymore.'

The psychic spy described pyramid structures, carved canyons and obelisks, dust storms and atmospheric breakdown - suggesting that the inhabitants of Mars may have been ready to move to another world.

In the decades since McMoneagle’s vision, others have claimed they visited the planet, with Brady describing how he 'chased the experience' by attempting to project his consciousness over and over again onto the Red Planet.

He told the Daily Mail that addiction reached a point where all he cared about was returning to his vision of Mars.

Brady described the city that was destroyed as looking similar to Dubai. 'However, the atmosphere and environment seemed to look like England on a summer's day,' he added.

'Where I was it was bustling, vibrant and active with people everywhere. Everyone was around six to seven feet tall, really slim, with pale white blueish skin tone.'

Brady is not the only person who claimed to have visited something resembling McMoneagle’s Mars remote vision.

Remote viewer Courtney Brown described his own visions of Mars in two books, Cosmic Voyage and Cosmic Explorers.

Brown, an associate professor of political science at Emory University, claimed to have conducted large-scale experiments with multiple remote viewers examining the surface of Mars.

Brown said he 'visited' the Cydonia region McMoneagle visited and saw a civilization of ancient Martians with prominent eyes and delicate bone structure.

Like McMoneagle, he claimed that the Martian civilization was subjected to a catastrophic event, but suggested that survivors may have found homes elsewhere in the solar system.

Brown wrote: 'At its peak, Martian society compared technologically to that of ancient Egypt. They were people who lived under harsh conditions. But they could feed their families, live in towns and participate in community life. Martian society experienced some major catastrophe. Many Martians died.'

McMoneagle’s strange vision has attracted attention for decades in part because some of his other remote viewing experiments were so accurate.

The 1979 incident with the Soviet submarine is among his most famous sessions, as McMoneagle claimed to have 'seen' a large warehouse 100 yards from the White Sea in northern Russia.

He described a never-before-seen type of submarine with slanted missile tubes and a unique double-hull structure.

His claims were dismissed by the intelligence community, but defense officials later confirmed the Soviet Union was building a new class of submarine, the Typhoon, which was unveiled in 1980.

5 Creepiest Episodes Of The X-Files, Ranked

BY JAMES GREBEY

All you need to do is listen to the opening music of "The X-Files," one of the greatest theme songs of the '90s, to know that the paranormal series can get scary. For all its sci-fi trappings, horror is an essential part of the show's DNA. 

Alien abduction sits at the heart of the show's larger mythology, while many of its one-off "Monster of the Week" episodes venture even further into horror. What scares one viewer might not faze another, but these five episodes of "The X-Files" are undeniably chilling. The threats include a death-obsessed killer, a slug-like parasite worshipped by a cult, a deadly high-speed drive, a cannibal with a knack for tight squeezes, and, of course, the Peacock family.

Not every episode of "The X-Files" aims for horror, of course, but the following five are more likely to have you covering your eyes than laughing. 

5. Drive

This Season 6 episode is widely praised, and even doubles as a sneak preview of "Breaking Bad" because it was written by Vince Gilligan and guest-stars Bryan Cranston. However, "Drive" isn't always appreciated for how scary it is.

"Drive" follows Cranston's Patrick Crump, a bigoted man living in Nevada who is arrested following a high-speed chase that ends with his wife's head exploding in the back seat. When Mulder (David Duchovny) investigates, he soon discovers that Crump is suffering from the same deadly head pressure. The excruciating pain only abates if he moves west, forcing the two onto a desperate drive to save Crump's life while Scully (Gillian Anderson) uncovers the possible source: low-frequency waves from an antenna on a United States Navy base.

The body horror of the painful, deadly pressure combined with the stress of the road makes "Drive" an unsettling watch. As Crump writhes in pain, it's hard not to imagine feeling a little something off inside your own head. Perhaps even more terrifying is Mulder's helplessness; all he can do is drive, and the moments when he somberly announces they're running out of gas — or highway — are chilling.

4. Irresistible

Unlike most episodes of "The X-Files," this Season 2 installment features no direct paranormal elements. The lack of UFOs, cryptids, or ghosts only makes "Irresistible" more unnerving. The episode follows Donnie Pfaster (Nick Chinlund), an assistant funeral director who is obsessed with death and begins mutilating bodies before turning to murder. In the original script, Pfaster was meant to be a necrophiliac, but Fox rejected that pitch.

Scully is especially disturbed by Pfaster's crimes and has demonic dreams about him. Those dreams are the only borderline paranormal aspects of the story; what happens next is all too real when Pfaster kidnaps her. Mulder rescues Scully in time, but afterward, the typically stoic agent breaks down in his arms. Seeing one of the show's protagonists in such a vulnerable state only makes Pfaster feel more terrifying.

In the book "X-Files Confidential," episode director David Nutter said series creator Chris Carter, who also wrote "Irresistible," wanted the episode to show that "not all terror comes from the paranormal. It could come from the person next door."

3. Squeeze

The first Monster of the Week episode of "The X-Files" is also one of the best and scariest. As just the show's third episode, and the first that wasn't focused on UFO-centric mythology, "Squeeze" was important in establishing what the series could be. It wasn't just a sci-fi conspiracy show; it could also be a horror program.

In "Squeeze," Mulder and Scully investigate a series of killings that Mulder believes are awfully similar to murders that happened 30 years earlier — and another spree from 60 years before that. The culprit is revealed to be Eugene Tooms (Doug Hutchison), a man with a strange mutation that allows him to squeeze and contort his body to slip through narrow spaces to kill his victims and consume their livers. Tooms emerges every three decades to consume five livers before entering another long period of hibernation, making him functionally immortal.

Hutchison's performance reminds one of Anthony Hopkins' Oscar-winning turn in "The Silence of the Lambs," as he makes for a profoundly creepy villain. It's little wonder that Tooms became one of only a handful of Monster of the Week baddies to return for a second episode. That return, "Tooms," aired later in Season 1.

2. Roadrunners

"Roadrunners" is certainly one of the more gruesome installments of "The X-Files," and one of the scarier ones. The Season 8 episode has Scully investigating a murder in a small town in the Utah desert. She soon discovers that all of the residents are sacrificing hitchhikers and other drifters in the hopes that a large slug-like creature they worship as the Second Coming of Jesus Christ will accept the victim as a suitable host. Scully finds herself captive to the townsfolk, and it's only when her new partner John Doggett (Robert Patrick), who was assigned to the X-Files following Mulder's disappearance, arrives and cuts the creature out of her that she's saved.

The slug, a complex animatronic modeled after a banana slug, is disgusting, as are the scenes where it's inserted or removed from a victim's flesh. In a behind-the-scenes featurette originally included on the Season 8 DVD release, producer Paul Rabwin said that camera operators started to "lose it" because the scene was so gross and intense.

1. Home

"Home" is widely regarded as one of the scariest episodes of "The X-Files," and rightly so. In a behind-the-scenes featurette, director Kim Manners said when he first read the script, he thought it was "as classic a horror script as I'm ever going to see." 

The episode has Mulder and Scully head to the town of Home, Pennsylvania, to investigate a deformed corpse that might be linked to the Peacock family — a reclusive group who have been living in an off-the-grid farmhouse for decades and are allegedly inbreeding murderers. When the duo enter the farmhouse, they discover booby traps, fend off attacks from the three Peacock brothers, and find their quadruple-amputee mother living under the bed.

"Home" technically doesn't feature any paranormal elements, but the Peacock family is so much in the mold of iconic horror villains from "The Texas Chain Saw Massacre" and "The Hills Have Eyes" that they certainly don't feel mundane. It is extremely intense, disturbing, and grotesque horror. Chris Carter recalled in a behind-the-scenes documentary that producer Joseph Patrick Finn wondered if they'd "gone too far this time," and "Home" became the only "X-Files" episode to earn a TV-MA rating. Despite, or perhaps because of, its infamous scares, "Home" became an acclaimed fan-favorite episode.

Pentagon Releases 6th Batch Of UFO Files, Including New Details About Infamous 1952 UFO Sighting In Utah

The Pentagon released a sixth batch of UFO files on Friday. The documents include a 2008 expense report detailing a nearly $22 million federal inquiry into unexplained aerial phenomena, along with film of UFOs appearing to swarm over Utah in 1952.

“Today, the Department of War is publishing the sixth release of declassified and historical Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) files as part of the Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters (PURSUE). The collection continues to be housed on WAR.GOV/UFO, and the Department will release additional files on a rolling basis,” Assistant to the Secretary of War for Public Affairs and Chief Pentagon Spokesman Sean Parnell, said in a statement.

Never-before-seen details about an infamous 1952 UFO sighting in Utah

The latest document release includes a 1952 video shot near Tremonton, Utah, by Navy Chief Warrant Officer Delbert C. Newhouse, who claimed to have seen a cluster of brilliant flying objects. The Air Force’s Project Blue Book later examined the film, but experts said its limited detail and lack of established reference points made it impossible to reach a firm conclusion.

Ten to fourteen objects were visible in a clear sky in the recently released footage. They resembled two disks stacked on top of one another, forming a “flying saucer” shape, according to Newhouse, who was on vacation with his family at the time.

In incident reports, he stated that the UFOs moved in a loose circle, usually heading west, and had a shiny metallic or gunmetal hue.

“In late December 1952, Project Blue Book personnel, balloon specialists, and representatives from General Mills reviewed the Tremonton footage,” the Department of War states. “The group’s consensus was that the objects closely resembled pillow balloons in flight and behaved consistently with that explanation. One General Mills representative was less convinced, noting that the objects appeared somewhat too bright and seemed to maneuver too rapidly.”

What else did the sixth batch of declassified UFO files include?

Also included in the newly declassified Pentagon files are numerous witness testimonies, videos of UFO sightings, and documents detailing how the Pentagon hired a private business owned by billionaire Robert Bigelow to investigate UFO sightings and futuristic technologies.

The files included expense reports from the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon’s military intelligence agency that examines foreign military technologies and potential threats. The records describe how the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program, or AAWSAP, which operated from 2008 to 2012, received tens of millions of dollars in funding.

In one declassified recording, an Air Force briefing discusses hundreds of alleged UFO sightings that date back to 1947. Officials talk about accounts from scientists, civilians, military personnel, and airline pilots. They also discuss photos, the Lubbock Lights, unusual radar returns, and unexplained objects seen near key military locations.

In the audio, they admit that a large percentage of the reports remained unaccounted for and repeatedly acknowledge that some credible reports simply had no explanation.

EXCLUSIVE - I investigated 700 UFO abductions. I started believing in God after survivors claimed two words saved them from 'demonic' entities

• MORE: Green Beret behind secret pastors' UFO meeting issues chilling warning about sinister new religion quietly reaching millions
  

By ROB WAUGH FOR DAILYMAIL.COM

A UFO researcher says he became a Christian after investigating hundreds of alleged alien abductions that were miraculously stopped when those involved claimed they invoked the power of Jesus.

Joe Jordan, 72, is a safety professional for the Blue Origin Rocket Factory in Florida and has also researched UFO sightings and abduction claims for 32 years.

Jordan told the Daily Mail he has investigated roughly 700 abduction cases, finding that those who called out to either Jesus or God claimed the supernatural incident immediately ended without further harm.

His research not only convinced him in the existence of a higher power, but also that sightings of extraterrestrials may actually be spiritual visitations - a belief which has spread amongst the religious community, who claim aliens are actually demons.

Jordan said: 'The way it changed my life is seeing that the power and the name and authority of Jesus Christ convinced me 100 percent that God is real, the Bible is real, Jesus was real... You call on him for help; he's there for help.'

The US government has maintained for decades that there has never been any evidence recovered that proves UFOs or alien life exists. That stance has not changed even as the Pentagon continues its highly publicized UFO disclosure rollout.

With skepticism over alien contact remaining high, the researcher noted that even non-religious groups have begun to broaden the discussion surrounding UFOs, moving away from calling everything extraterrestrial and focusing more on 'non-human' phenomena.

'They're saying that what used to be always about extraterrestrial biological entities from other worlds, they're now calling interdimensional, extradimensional, and ultradimensional,' Jordan explained.

After 30 years of research, Jordan now says it is clear to him that the true nature of these abductions appears to have a demonic connection - which he claimed often started with the person seeing these entities engaging in some form of the occult.

He revealed that UFO abduction experiences often happen after the alleged victim opens a door to these entities by dabbling in areas that the Bible deemed to be contrary to the word of God.

'Every person that I found that unknowingly opened the door to the experience, they have been dabbling in the occult, the paranormal, even the UFO phenomenon itself. But that is what triggered the opportunity for them to be affected by this,' Jordan expl

'I had experiencers coming and saying that they had been taken aboard craft, things had been done to them,' he continued.

However, the UFO researcher-turned-Christian believed these entities were spirits from another realm which the Bible would deem as hostile to humanity, and the 'abduction' simply took on the disguise of a UFO encounter.

'Nobody's getting taken anywhere. This experience is a demonic vision, demonic spiritual visionary experience that's given to them,' Jordan claimed.

Jordan began researching UFOs in the 1990s after reading a book about the 1947 Roswell UFO incident and eventually became a member of the UFO research organization MUFON in 1992, working as a field investigator and state section director.

MUFON has 700 investigators in the US and is one of the world’s oldest UFO research organizations, having collected evidence of extraterrestrial encounters since the 1960s.

A video released in the first wave of UFO files appeared to show a glowing object resembling an 'eight-pointed star' with uneven arms that has been compared to a craft from biblical times

Joe Jordan (Pictured) has been a Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) field investigator since 1992

Rather than focus on encounters where people saw UFOs, Jordan’s research focused on people who claimed they had been abducted.

It was around this point that Jordan encountered a case that changed the whole course of his research, and his life.

The experiencer, named 'Bill D,' talked about an abduction experience which he described as dark and with satanic overtones.

He cried out, 'Jesus, Jesus, help me!' and reported to Jordan that the experience immediately stopped and he woke up in his bed.

Jordan said: 'I thought this just doesn't make sense because all the leading researchers at the time in the early mid 90s were saying that these abduction experiences could not be stopped, but I had one that just said he had stopped it.'

Every UFO researcher Jordan said he has contacted claimed they came across cases where people had said a prayer, sang a hymn or called out to Jesus - and the experience stopped.

However, he claimed that UFO researchers never share such stories publicly, with one alleging that sharing the story would damage their standing in the UFO community.

'For 30 years that I've been doing this, all we hear is cover up, cover up, cover up. That is supposedly from the government. The cover up [is] coming from the researchers themselves that we've been relying on for the truth!' Jordan alleged.

Jordan explained that before he embraced Christianity, he started working with MUFON as a 'crystal-ball rolling' New Age practitioner. However, a fellow investigator warned him that he was dabbling with sinister and dark forces.

'I told her I got these crystals that protect me from this and that. She said, "I mean, real protection.” And then she handed me a Bible. In November '96, I became a Christian,' he recalled.

The idea that UFOs might be demonic has gained growing support in recent years. Vice President JD Vance said on a podcast in March, 'I don’t think they’re aliens, I think they’re demons.'

Experts such as parapsychologist Hal Puthoff and ufologist Jacques Vallee have championed the demonic UFO hypothesis for decades.

I was searching over the ocean area between Japan and Taiwan and found something thought provoking. A mega structure is seen in a U shape that is 10 miles/15km just one side! But its not alone, there are many other smaller structures all around it that are clearly created by intelligent beings. Those smaller structures are 1 mile by .5 miles across. Also in the video, I talk about how there is an old mythology story in Japan about the Dragon Palace. As the story goes, a man was fishing and met a sea turtle, who decided to take the person under water to the great Dragon Palace. There he stayed in luxury in the company of a beautiful princes for three days and then he decided to return home, but when he home...three hundred years had passed. To me...this sounds very much like an alien city, one with tech that allows time to slow down within its walls.

I found some pyramids on Mars in an old NASA photo. Instead of flat sides, these pyramids are built with round sides, much like those seen in Mexico. The photo itself is 1.9 by 1.9 miles across, making the biggest pyramid about 600 meters by 300 meters...which is exactly the size that an intelligent species might create. One of the pyramids is so precise, so perfect that it just screams ancient aliens created it. For lack of a better explanation...I have to admit...its created by aliens.

Humanity has fought over land. It has fought over oceans. It conquered the skies and turned them into another battlefield. And now, after centuries of repeating the same pattern, humanity is taking the next step, carrying its rivalries beyond Earth itself. 

Space was supposed to be the next frontier of exploration. Instead, it is becoming a frontier of power. Satellites are becoming strategic assets, military forces are preparing for conflict in orbit, and nations are looking toward the Moon and the space surrounding Earth as the next arena of competition. 

The United States is openly developing military capabilities designed not only to protect satellites, but to fight for control of the space domain. 

U.S. military leaders now speak about preparing for conflict extending from Earth into cislunar space, the region between Earth and the Moon and beyond. 

And the most important part is this: A future space war may not involve astronauts sitting inside spacecraft. It could be fought from Earth. 

Space Force personnel can remotely control and maneuver satellites, conduct space-domain surveillance, and employ electronic warfare, cyber operations, directed-energy systems, and other counterspace capabilities. In June 2026, the Space Force also accepted the Meadowlands electromagnetic-warfare system, designed to disrupt satellite communications 

As military competition moves beyond Earth, the spacecraft of the future may look very different. Highly maneuverable, autonomous vehicles could potentially monitor other spacecraft, intercept or approach them, jam communications, conduct surveillance, or perform other military missions in orbit. Systems such as the mysterious spacecraft X-37B demonstrate how sophisticated autonomous spacecraft operations have already become. 

For years, researchers and whistleblowers have claimed that a secret military fleet of advanced spacecraft, often referred to as the “Dark Fleet”, already exists beyond public knowledge. 

According to these claims, these hidden (eventually autonomous) spacecraft could operate in deep orbit and throughout cislunar space, and extending beyond it. Their alleged mission? To monitor, intercept, and, if necessary, confront potential threats, including, according to some accounts, even unknown or extraterrestrial objects. 

Whether the Dark Fleet is real remains unproven so far. But one thing is becoming increasingly clear: Space is no longer simply a place to explore. It is becoming a battlefield, a domain where nations, military forces, and, perhaps, even extraterrestrial civilizations could one day become involved.

For the first time in its history, the Pentagon has openly acknowledged the presence of combat systems in space. U.S. Air Force Secretary Troy Meink made the statement at the annual Air, Space & Cyber Conference of the Air & Space Forces Association outside Washington. He did not disclose details, arguing that specifics would undermine deterrence. It is not even known when these systems were deployed in space.

A Statement Without Details

Troy Meink chose his wording carefully. In his prepared remarks, he said that “the United States now has space-control capabilities on orbit capable of defending the joint force against hostile adversary actions.” He did not specify the type of equipment or when it was deployed.

At a press conference, Meink explained the lack of detail in terms of deterrence. Discussing technical characteristics, he said, would undermine the effect. As Ars Technica reports, officials even discussed internally how such statements should be worded.

Actions by Russia and China

Public attention in the United States to orbital weapons intensified as early as 2020, when the U.S. military pointed to a Russian test of a spacecraft resembling an anti-satellite weapon. In 2024, the Biden administration accused Russia of deploying operational systems of this type.

That same year, former House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner disclosed a U.S. government assessment that Russia could place a nuclear device in space. A detonation in low Earth orbit could disable thousands of satellites, including Starlink spacecraft, U.S. intelligence assets, and the International Space Station.

Chinese satellites regularly approach U.S. military targets, most likely for observation. The United States conducts similar maneuvers near Chinese and Russian spacecraft. Analysts at the Center for Strategic and International Studies noted in their 2025 Space Threat Assessment that the maneuverability of Chinese satellites was already sufficient to support a full range of counterspace capabilities.

The stakes in this field are illustrated by the cost of the hardware that must be protected. The first Next-Generation Overhead Persistent Infrared missile-warning satellite cost more than $4 billion and became the most expensive spacecraft acquired by the U.S. Space Force since its creation in 2019.

Likely Nature of the Systems

Categories of space weapons in U.S. military doctrine include directed-energy systems such as lasers, radio-frequency jammers, and kinetic systems that physically destroy targets. They can be deployed either on the ground or in orbit. General Chance Saltzman said last year that other countries were developing all six categories, while the United States at that time was not working on every one of them.

The first officially confirmed weapon system shown by the Space Force came in June, when it announced that the mobile ground-based Meadowlands jammer had entered service. Victoria Samson of the Secure World Foundation suggests that the systems in orbit may also be jammers, since similar capabilities have been attributed to China and Russia. A kinetic strike in space would create a debris cloud dangerous to U.S. satellites as well, so the United States has consistently favored systems that do not generate debris.

Clayton Swope, deputy director of the Aerospace Security Project at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, notes that non-kinetic weapons are almost indistinguishable in hardware terms from ordinary orbital equipment. Any radio transmitter can function as a jammer, while an inter-satellite optical link can potentially be used to blind sensors.

Experts Express Doubts

Clayton Swope considers the statement too vague to have a meaningful deterrent effect. Deterrence depends not simply on the existence of a weapon, but on an understanding of how and when it might be used, while Meink’s comments reveal neither the systems’ intended purpose nor their destructive capability.

Victoria Samson adds that after the official acknowledgment, China and Russia may similarly announce their own orbital systems, after which the United States could cite those declarations as evidence that its own deployment was justified. This creates a closed loop of mutual justification in which each new statement becomes an argument for the next one.

Satellite communications and commercial orbital imagery have long become everyday tools for the Ukrainian military. Orbital jammers would target exactly these channels. The greatest risk falls on the side whose intelligence and command systems depend on foreign satellite infrastructure. China and Russia have not yet officially responded to the statement.

Argentina: UFO Mystery in Puelches (July 2026)

 Mystery has once again descended upon the small town of Puelches, in La Pampa province, after residents reported witnessing a series of unusual phenomena. Accounts include strange lights in the sky, water tanks emptying without explanation, animal mutilations, and—most recently—the alleged crash of a flying object, fueling speculation about a possible UFO presence in the area. The town, home to fewer than 500 people, is living through a period of uncertainty. 

According to local residents, these incidents have been occurring for some time; however, speculation was reignited last Saturday when two locals claimed to see a strange object descend near a salt flat. Located 272 kilometers from Santa Rosa and nearly 900 kilometers from Buenos Aires,

 Puelches has become the focus of attention due to a series of events that many residents feel defy conventional explanation. Locals report seeing lights appear and vanish in the night sky, hearing unidentifiable sounds, and finding livestock with injuries featuring precise cuts. 

Accounts also center on the three lagoons surrounding the town—Urre Lauquén, La Dulce, and La Amarga—where residents claim to have witnessed striking phenomena in recent weeks. Those who frequent these areas for rural work, such as salt harvesting, state that sightings of lights hovering over the lagoons' nearly dry beds have become increasingly common. 

Some residents even claim to have seen a sort of illuminated city suspended above the countryside—an image they describe as an impossible mirage. While there is no official explanation for these events, stories continue to multiply among the people of Puelches, where the mystery has once again become a major topic of conversation, keeping the entire community on edge.

Special Review of UAP Evidence, Testimony and Government Data

BREAKING INVESTIGATION: 

UAP INTELLIGENCE PIPELINE APPEARS TO BE ACCELERATING

ZlandCommunications has not independently established that these objects are extraterrestrial or that any particular incident represents technology beyond human capability. However, evidence from pilots and radar sensor data  appear to point in a non-human direction.

• A growing body of testimony, official statements, and investigative reporting suggests that the U.S. government—and potentially other governments - may possess technologies or materials of non-human or otherwise unexplained origin.
• These claims remain unverified publicly; however, their increasing frequency and the involvement of government officials, military personnel, and congressional representatives warrant continued examination.
• The ambiguity surrounding government agencies’ efforts to protect or release data concerning UAP incidents—including events over military bases, encounters with military aircraft or naval operations, and the storage of recovered materials - is pervasive and, at times, appears purposeful.
• The failure to release this information limits the ability of independent researchers, scientists, and the public to critically evaluate claims that some UAP may demonstrate capabilities beyond currently known human technology. 

2. Alleged U.S. Government UAP Recovery and Analysis Programs

• There are claims that the U.S. government maintains an operational program dedicated to the recovery, examination, and analysis of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP).
• Whistleblower testimony presented to the U.S. Inspector General and to members of Congress has included allegations concerning the recovery and analysis of UAP and associated materials.
• Despite these allegations, U.S. government officials have continued to state publicly that there is insufficient evidence demonstrating the existence of non-human intelligence.

3. Canadian Government and UAP-Related Claims

• Former Canadian Member of Parliament Larry Maguire wrote to former Minister of Defence Anita Anand requesting an investigation into reports that Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) may possess materials allegedly recovered from UAP incidents.
• Mr. Maguire has also asserted that former Deputy Minister John Hannaford was briefed on reports concerning unidentified craft operating over Canadian nuclear energy installations. ZNN's investigation reveals that while Deputy Minister of Natural Resources, Mr. Hannaford failed to provide follow-up details for Larry Maguire reports concerning unidentified craft operating over Canadian nuclear energy installations.
• These allegations raise questions regarding whether Canadian government departments or agencies possess information or material relating to UAP that has not been made publicly available.
• Canadian Members of Parliament remain mute on the UAP issue. 

4. Congressional and Parliamentary Engagement

• U.S. Representative Eric Burlison recently disclosed that he participated in an online briefing with two Canadian Members of Parliament concerning information related to his most recent UAP investigations.
• While ZlandCommunications has been in communication with Representative Burlison’s office, as well as having held multiple discussions with the offices of Manitoba MPs Grant Jackson and Branden Leslie, the UAP matter continues to attract unprecedented global attention. Despite this increasing scrutiny—including at the highest levels of government—there has yet to be any public acknowledgement of the matter from Canadian Members of Parliament.

5. Satellite, Radar, and Sensor Data

• There are assertions that extensive satellite, radar, and other sensor data concerning UAP exists but has not been fully released to the public.
• Former U.S. Representative Mike Rogers, who served as Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, has publicly discussed the existence and significance of UAP-related sensor data.
• Additional reports indicate that data may exist concerning UAP operating beneath the ocean or emerging from the ocean; this relevant information has not been publicly released.
• Claims have also been made that advanced U.S. aerospace radar networks have detected UAP operating at or near space-based altitudes.
• Reportedly, some of this information falls outside the scope of the UAP data currently being publicly disclosed by the Pentagon.
• Such data is potentially significant because it may contain detailed analysis of UAP speed, acceleration, maneuverability, and other performance characteristics.
• The continued restriction or non-release of this information limits the ability of independent researchers, scientists, and the public to independently evaluate claims that some UAP demonstrate capabilities beyond currently known human technology.

6. Military Base and Aviation Incidents

• In December 2023, reports emerged of repeated unauthorized UAP incursions over Langley Air Force Base lasting more than two weeks.
• The reported incidents were sufficiently significant that an entire squadron of F-22 fighter aircraft was reportedly relocated.
• Similar incidents were subsequently reported at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana.
• Air Force officials reportedly acknowledged that they were unable to determine the origin of the objects involved.
• Such incidents raise questions concerning the ability of military surveillance and air-defence systems to identify, characterize, and respond to unidentified objects operating within or near sensitive military airspace.

7. International and Maritime Incidents

• Reports of unexplained aerial phenomena continue to emerge from locations across North America, Guam, and the Pacific.
• Some reports involve UAP operating in proximity to naval vessels and other military assets.
• Additional reports have emerged from the Middle East and Europe, suggesting that the phenomenon is not necessarily confined to a single geographic region or military jurisdiction.
• The persistence of reports involving military installations, aircraft, naval vessels, and other sensitive infrastructure warrants systematic examination and comparison of available sensor and intelligence data.

8. Continuing Lack of Explanation

• Following a classified Pentagon briefing, a senior U.S. Senator reportedly stated that the Pentagon remains unable to explain certain UAP phenomena.
• This is significant in the context of continuing reports involving military personnel, intelligence officials, congressional representatives, and other government sources.
• While the inability to identify an object does not, by itself, establish a non-human origin, persistent incidents involving multiple independent sensors and military platforms merit further investigation.

9. Summative Assessment

• Considered individually, any one of these reports could potentially be dismissed, challenged, or explained through conventional means.
• Taken collectively, however, the volume, persistence, geographic distribution, and increasingly official nature of the reporting raise substantive questions that warrant serious and sustained attention.
• The central issue is not whether every UAP report represents technology of non-human origin. Rather, it is whether governments possess information, sensor data, recovered materials, or other evidence that could allow these claims to be independently evaluated.
• Greater transparency, subject to legitimate national-security considerations, would enable qualified scientists, researchers, legislators, and the public to assess the evidence on its merits.
• At minimum, the continued withholding of potentially relevant information makes it difficult to determine whether reported UAP represent conventional aircraft, foreign technologies, sensor phenomena, previously undisclosed human capabilities, or phenomena that cannot presently be explained by known technology.

Pentagon releases another batch of UFO files, including documents from secretive government program

By Dorothy Sedovic

(Gray News) - The Pentagon released another batch of UFO files on Friday.

The new disclosure includes a total of 71 files, dated from 1952 to 2025.

Among them are documents from a military program that studied warp drives and wormholes. The documents, called “Defense Intelligence Reference Documents,” were produced under the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program, according to CBS News.

The Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program (AAWSAP) was a secretive military operation started in 2008 that studied future aerospace threats. According to files released about the program, its objective was to “understand the physics and engineering of these applications as they apply to the foreign threat out to the far term, i.e., from now through the year 2050.”

Along with the “Defense Intelligence Reference Documents,” the batch included videos from military cameras capturing unexplained objects moving at fast speeds. Many of the videos appear similar to those released in previous batches: grainy footage of an unusual object moving quickly across the screen.

Four of the videos were submitted by a police department in Colorado. The videos, captured on cellphone cameras in October 2023, featured unexplained “red, blue, and green flashing lights.”

Since Congress ordered their release in 2022, the Pentagon has been working to declassify records on “unidentified anomalous phenomena” and UFO sightings.

This is the sixth release under the Trump administration’s effort to declassify those records.

Experts urge caution regarding the released files, saying videos of unidentified anomalous phenomena can be misinterpreted or mischaracterized by people who lack an understanding of advanced military technology.

In 2024, the Pentagon released a report that refuted claims that the U.S. government had confirmed the existence of alien life or recovered alien technology.

Terrifying UFOs buzzing military sites could be secret Chinese super-tech, expert warns

Unsealed Pentagon files reveal mind-bending 965G UFOs over US nuclear sites, but an expert warns they could be terrifying foreign super-drones

BY Liam Randall - News Reporter

Terrifying UFOs pulling "impossible" high-speed manoeuvres over top-secret military sites could actually be deadly Chinese or Russian super-tech, an expert has warned.

A massive wave of unsealed Pentagon files has revealed mind-bending reports of mysterious craft soaring over sensitive nuclear bases across the United States. The unclassified documents describe anomalous objects defying the laws of physics, including a 1953 report detailing abrupt turns with acceleration pulling up to a staggering 965 times gravity.

Another report from 1950 highlights a craft spotted rising directly out of the sea off Okinawa. While UFO hunters hope the craft are visitors from deep space, expert Ross Coulthart fears the reality could be far more dangerous.

Speaking to The Hill on NewsNation, Coulthart warned the propulsion-less craft could belong to Beijing or Moscow, raising alarms that Western defences have been left behind.

He said: "I think some of this is definitely foreign adversary tech, and that raises a really dramatic and concerning issue.

"If the Chinese or the Russians have developed adversary drone technology which is capable of the manoeuvres, the stealth, and all of the characteristics, transmedium positive lift without any visible means of propulsion. That's scary."

Coulthart added: "I fear that what we're looking at here, if it is a foreign adversary, is that somebody from another country has stolen the march on us. I actually hope it's aliens because, frankly, it's really bad news if it's the Chinese or the Russians."

Despite releasing historical files from the Air Force's Project Blue Book, defence chiefs are facing accusations of hiding the full truth for nearly 75 years.

Coulthart slammed the government's sluggish disclosure over threats to sensitive military airspace.

He said: "Isn't it incredible that it's taken three quarters of a century to reveal what we know to be the case, that there are anomalous objects presenting themselves over sensitive military sites, nuclear facilities, nuclear weapons facilities across the continental United States?

"This is a national security concern. It's a flight safety concern, and frankly, it shouldn't have taken 75 years, nearly, for this to come out.

"It's great that the president is releasing this material and it's only to be commended, but I'm sure there is so much more in the locker."

Former Pentagon employee Luis Elizondo agreed with the assessment, calling official excuses "pitiful" and revealing that important military documentation has vanished.

He said: "When I was at the Pentagon, we had lots of documentation that has now, for some reason, just simply disappeared."

With insider warnings of missing files and superior foreign technology, experts fear the Pentagon's drip-feed of secrets is masking a wider security threat.

Missing aircraft, orbs, and portals: Alaska UFO Town Hall lands in Juneau

JUNEAU, Alaska (KTUU) - For one afternoon in the capital city, the usual talk of state politics and cruise ship timetables took a detour into interdimensional portals, glowing orbs and vanishing planes.

Dozens of curious locals joined hundreds of passengers from the inaugural “Missing 411: Alaska Cruise” inside Elizabeth Peratrovich Hall on Sunday for the first-ever Alaska UFO Town Hall. Organized by Tennessee-based Gather Up Events, the shoreside gathering was designed as a lively collision between national paranormal investigators and Alaskans eager to talk about the strange things seen in the northern skies.

“It’s an extension of what we do on the ship, but the extension is about local experiences, which we can’t get on the ship, right?” said Martin Pippin, Gather Up Events partner. “So that was the starting point.”

Pippin noted pulling off a convention-style panel while docked during a seven-day voyage aboard Royal Caribbean’s Voyager of the Seas brings its own brand of unpredictability. Between navigating last-minute berth changes in port and hurrying to set up hundreds of chairs before doors opened, the atmosphere inside remained upbeat and packed with questions.

“The questions have been all over the place, from why are the planes disappearing to why do some people see code when they are on DMT,” Pippin said. “These are people that are, you know, either believers or open to believing, or in some cases experiencers who are happy to share what’s happened with them.”

Headlining the stage was David Paulides, the former California police officer turned investigative author best known for his “Missing 411” book and documentary series. While Paulides has spent years tracking wilderness disappearances across North America, he said Alaska poses a unique mystery when looking upward.

“When you look at aircraft, there’s a special niche for Alaska,” Paulides said. “There’s a lot of big aircraft that have disappeared over land in Alaska that have never been found, and there’s a lot of amphibious aircraft that have disappeared in Alaska over water. No mayday call, no debris, no oil, no gas slick.”

Paulides stressed his investigations focus strictly on documented evidence rather than speculation, citing historical cases like the 1986 Japan Airlines radar tracking over eastern Alaska to encourage people to examine official records for themselves.

“Know that there are people who are high integrity individuals who take this topic seriously, who have accumulated a vast amount of data and are willing to put it in front of you to interpret how you wish,” Paulides said. “Facts are the only important thing in an investigation.”

Also joining the panel was Chris Bledsoe, whose reported 2007 encounter in North Carolina became the subject of his bestselling book, “UFO of God.” Bledsoe, who previously faced intense public skepticism before his accounts drew the attention of federal scientists and intelligence officials, offered an encouraging message to locals stepping up to the microphone.

“I just say not to be afraid, and don’t be too quick to label your experience as some alien or something of that nature,” Bledsoe said. “Study consciousness and understand how it can manifest.”

Bledsoe added public perception has undergone a massive cultural shift over the past two decades.

“It’s like the whole UFO community, including Congress, including the vice president and all, are now saying that this thing could be angels and demons or spiritual. So it’s done about shift from physical to more non-physical.”

Rounding out the panel was Joe Hauser, a longtime researcher at the Montana Vortex, who shared experimental field theories on electromagnetic anomalies and mysterious “plasma energy fields” that researchers believe might link high-strangeness hot spots across the continent.

“I’m sure there’s energy fields inside Alaska that haven’t been discovered yet that could be vortex fields, possibility of portals, stuff like that. Not a lot of people have looked into all of these missing people or the planes and stuff like that,” Hauser said. “Is there some other compelling factor behind them that’s causing these things to happen?”

For organizers and attendees alike, the town hall served as a welcoming platform for residents to openly share stories they might otherwise keep quiet at the dinner table.

With the cruise set to continue its Inside Passage voyage, Pippin said Gather Up Events plans to return to Alaska next year with an expanded itinerary in Anchorage.

Fact, fiction and flying objects: This new docufiction journeys across prehistory, colonial records and UFO encounters in Pavagada

Sashi Sivramkrishna’s latest docufiction, The Incidents at Pawgur, 1830, brings together several of his deep interests. “Mysuru history, the journey of the Scottish physician, botanist, and surveyor Francis Buchanan through South India, a fascination with prehistoric sites and UFOs,” lists the Bengaluru-based economist and documentary filmmaker, who recently screened the film at the Bangalore International Centre.

Blending documentary-style narration with fiction, it follows a contemporary UFO encounter that leads to a journey back in time through the drought-prone, starkly beautiful landscape of Pavagada, about 160 km north of Bengaluru in Tumkur district. The film follows two researchers and a local explorer as they retrace the path of 19th-century British surveyor John Warren, who may have also had a similar encounter.

“I wanted to tell a story, and there were several ways I could do it, including an audio podcast or feature film. Another way was to make a fiction film in a documentary style, which is what I did here,” says Sashi, who believes that using this format made the film more believable. “When we watch feature films, at the back of our minds, we know that it is fiction. But when you tell a story, like this, in a documentary style, you are more likely to convince people,” he believes.

While the film’s characters and overarching narrative are largely fictional, the history of Pavagada that underpins the storyline is not. “It is a work of fiction, but has got some history in it. The menhirs and the prehistoric sites are there, though I don’t name the villages on purpose, because many of these are private lands,” says Sashi, who worked with Shiva, an explorer familiar with the terrain, to make this film. “He had visited the forts and prehistoric sites showcased in the film, many of which were not even known to the local people of the region.”

The inspiration for the 19th-century British surveyor came from Sashi’s own interest in Francis Buchanan’s journey, something he has researched extensively and even written about in a graphic novel titled A Journey into the Furnace of History: The Dying Embers of Ancient Iron-Smelting in India. “I like the idea of retracing a journey, so I kept that in mind,” says Sashi, who has visited Pavagada several times before and finds the landscape “fascinating. It is not like the Western Ghats or the Himalayas, but it has got its own beauty.” In his opinion, the rocky landscape of the region, “very quiet, very distant was particularly suited for UFOs.

The film idea first emerged in June-July 2025. “I got all these inputs from Shiva and started writing the script for the film. It is entirely scripted, with professional actors playing the roles of the various experts in the documentary,” he explains. Once Sashi completed the planning, recce, and obtaining permissions, he began shooting for the film in February 2026. “We did five days outdoors at all the sites, and three days of staged interviews in Bengaluru…so about eight days of shooting in all.”

The film, officially released on July 4, has already been sent to a few festivals, says Sashi, whose earlier work includes The Curse of Talakad (2005), A Looming Past (2010),and The Indigo Factory (2024). “There are a lot of film festivals for hybrid films and something called mockumentaries, though I don’t really like the word.”

According to him, most mockumentary films fall into the found-footage genre, like The Blair Witch Project, rather than the fictional documentary genre. “This kind of format, which almost looks like a serious Netflix documentary, is not so popular, but I believe the use of interviews really convinces people,” he says.

Amid the stark landscapes of Pavagada in southern India, a fleeting UFO encounter draws two researchers and a local explorer into a journey that spans centuries. They retrace the path of a 19th-century British surveyor whose meticulous records of prehistoric sites lend weight to his testimony of witnessing strange lights at dusk in Pawgur, now Pavagada—accounts uncannily similar to their own and other present-day reports of UFO sightings.

The film blends documentary-style narration with fiction, in a cinematic experiment that reframes the UFO phenomenon through contemporary eyes, situating it within a historical context where the unknown and imagination converge.

The film has had a great start so far, even being selected for screening at OFFNI Cine Fest 2026 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, says Sashi, who is deeply grateful to Shiva and the rest of the crew, especially Mithun TM, who was key to bringing his vision to life through his work on cinematography, editing, colour grading, and VFX. Once the festival circuit is over, he plans to drop the film on an online digital film distribution platform like Filmhub and see where it goes from there. “I just want to try and see if it works. Meanwhile, I plan to have private screenings in Bengaluru and outside.”

Washington — The Pentagon on Friday released its sixth batch of files on unidentified anomalous phenomena, or UAP or UFOs, including dozens of documents detailing a military program that commissioned studies of warp drives, wormholes and injuries that researchers linked to possible encounters with unknown craft.

Friday's release includes a total of 71 files — 67 provided by the Defense Department and four from local law enforcement in Colorado. There are 55 PDF files, 15 video files and one audio file. Most of the files — 64 out of 71 — contain redactions. The dates of the documents range from 1952 to 2025. 

What's in the latest UFO files?

The most noteworthy documents deal with a secretive military initiative known as the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program. The Defense Intelligence Agency established the program in 2008 to study various aerospace threats decades into the future. The initiative ended in 2012. 

One document describes the goals of the program and requirements for contractors who would work on it: "One aspect of the future threat environment involves advanced aerospace weapon system applications. The objective of this program is to understand the physics and engineering of these applications as they apply to the foreign threat out to the far term, i.e., from now through the year 2050. Primary focus is on breakthrough technologies and applications that create discontinuities in currently evolving technology trends."

The release includes 37 "Defense Intelligence Reference Documents," or DIRDs, produced under AAWSAP, dealing with topics like warp drives, wormholes, antigravity, negative mass propulsion and invisibility cloaking. All 37 have been publicly available for years, including through Freedom of Information Act releases by the DIA. But Friday's versions include some details the agency had previously withheld, like the names of the agency offices that produced the documents.

In notes accompanying the documents, the Pentagon says the DIRDs are "best understood as reference and synthesis products rather than as original research" and that they "should not be read as implying current validation of the concepts discussed."

While most of the DIRDs examine ideas that are typically the domain of science fiction, one is a 38-page highly technical study from 2010 analyzing "evidence of unintended injury to human observers by anomalous advanced aerospace systems."

Researchers recounted that "three previous fit and active individuals experienced an anomalous ['irregular, incongruous and inconsistent with their domain'] aerospace-related event" and suffered a range of medical symptoms in the aftermath, including heat and redness on their skin and hair loss. One of the individuals showed "signs of radiation illness" and "over several years developed signs of malignant transformations."

The document did not identify the source of the exposure that led to the symptoms, but said the three individuals were "antennae engineers." The author compared the cases to 42 published and roughly 300 unpublished incidents of conventional radiofrequency injury where the source of the radiation was known.

"Sufficient incidents/accidents have been accurately reported, and medical data acquired, as to support a hypothesis that some advanced systems are already deployed, and opaque to full US understanding," the author found.

Most of the videos in Friday's disclosure are similar to those from previous releases: grainy footage captured by military cameras of unexplained objects zooming across the screen at high speed. One unexplained incident from 2022 shows a UAP "traveling at various speeds between 80-180 miles per hour."

An accompanying report on the encounter shows operators were flying a mission in the Middle East when they spotted various objects at unknown altitudes. The crew reported that the objects were between 1 and 2 meters in size and were "flying spora[d]ically within the target area."

Another video captured over the Middle East shows roughly half a dozen objects flying in tandem. The report says there were "six small spherical objects" that "seemed to be agile" and were "frequently changing direction." The incident remains unexplained.

Four of the videos originated from local law enforcement in Colorado who submitted reports to the Pentagon's office that investigates UAP. The Pentagon said the partially blurred footage was captured by cellphone cameras in October 2023.

"The reporting officer described the phenomenon as 'silent' and as featuring 'red, blue, and green flashing lights,'" the military said in notes accompanying one of the clips.

The historical files include an hour-long audio recording and transcript of remarks by Air Force officer Edward Ruppelt from 1952 in which he explains the service's investigation into UFO incidents. In the presentation, Ruppelt revealed that roughly 20% of the 800 UFO reports the Air Force had investigated were still a mystery.

"We've gone through these reports and come up with the fact that about 20% are very good reports offered by very reliable people and … just absolutely no conclusions can be drawn," Ruppelt said.

Ruppelt would go on to run Project Blue Book, an Air Force program that investigated UFOs from 1952 to 1969. Several other files related to Project Blue Book were also included in Friday's disclosure.

On Monday, the Pentagon announced the creation of a legal waiver that would allow current and former employees previously bound by nondisclosure agreements to share UAP-related information with the government.

Pentagon releases new UFO videos, decades-old files in fresh transparency drop

Three UFO Videos And Close Ups From Dept of War 5th Release, UAP Sighting News.

Date of release: Sept 16, 2026

Location of sighings: Unknown

Source: US Dept of War

 

I searched through the 5th drop of UFO files and honestly, you couldn't find a worse bunch of files than these. I found 41 total files, 16 videos, but only 3 decent ones, the others were horrible and far away so we only saw an object the size of a pixel on the entire screen. One video they broke up into four videos so we see the same pixel several times even though they say its different...its the same! Also 22 document files good for putting you to sleep tonight fast, 3 artist renderings pictures...nice of them to have the kids draw them on the computer for us. So honestly, I cut through the garbage to give you the tip top best of the best in this 5th drop. I also made a close up of the UFO at the beginning of each video so you see it better. The best of them all you ask? Thats the #1 part in my video...the plasma ai orb. They are pure of heart, timid and kind. I like them!

 

Its clear the person releasing files is stalling for time. Perhaps they will release something good for a change, but I'm not holding my breath till then.
