NASA administrator Jared Isaacman told Fox News that recently declassified videos, photos and documents expose years of unexplained aerial encounters that previous agencies kept hidden. The material, released under President Donald Trump's disclosure push, includes strange objects captured by military sensors worldwide, yet contains no evidence of crashed ships or alien bodies .

Trump‑ordered Release of Two Batches of UFO Records in 2023

According to the source, the Trump administration made public two sets of formerly classified UFO files as part of a new transparency initiative. The releases, which arrived after a presidential directive to revisit old archives, are expected to be followed by additional disclosures from the CIA and other agencies in the coming weeks. Isaacman emphasized that the president’s order has finally compelled agencies to “take this seriously” and put the data in the public domain.

Isaacman Calls the Files "Citizen Science" After a Glowing Eight‑Pointed Star Video

One of the first videos released shows a glowing object resembling an eight‑pointed star moving across the sky, a clip Isaacman described on Fox News as emblematic of the “real unexplained phenomena” now available for analysis.. He urged anyone with a camera phone or doorbell camera to examine the files, noting that modern military aircraft are equipped with “a million sensors” that can capture odd angles and obscure the true nature of what is seen.

Historical Promise and Silence: Carter’s 1976 Pledge and Clinton’s 1997 Review

The article notes that both President Jimmy Carter and President Bill Clinton previously promised to release UFO information—Carter during his 1976 campaign and Clinton in 1997 on the 50th anniversary of the Roswell incident. However, each administration ultimately withheld the records, citing national security concerns and concluding that the Roswell crash was merely a high‑altitude weather balloon. This pattern of promise followed by secrecy provides context for the current wave of disclosures.

Open Questions: Are the Unexplained Objects Misidentified Balloons or Missiles?

Isaacman warned that many of the newly released sightings could be misidentified conventional objects, such as balloons or missiles observed from unusual angles.. He said, “You’re gonna pick up things that flew at a different angle…maybe you’d be like, oh, that’s a balloon.” The lack of definitive identification leaves analysts questioning whether the phenomena are truly anomalous or simply artifacts of sensor limitations.

What Remains Unverified: No Evidence of Alien Bodies or Spaceships

Crucially, Isaacman stated he is not aware of any files containing information about alien bodies or spacecraft , underscoring that the releases focus on “observations from decades past…from some of our adversaries and potentially some of our allies.” This admission tempers sensational expectations and redirects attention to rigorous scientific examination of the data.
