ABOUT
What this archive is and where it comes from
UFOs / ET Phone Home is an unofficial, fan-made archive of the U.S. Department of War's declassified UAP (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) document release at war.gov/UFO.
All records and original PDFs link directly back to the government source. Nothing is mirrored or modified — this site is a presentation layer over the public CSV manifest the government publishes.
Stats
- 161 total records (release_01)
- 28 videos · 14 photos · 119 documents
- 114 with location data plotted on the globe
Methodology
- The CSV manifest is fetched from
war.govat build time and cached. - Incident-Location strings are geocoded with a static lookup table (committed to the repo) — see
data/location-lookup.json. - Regional locations (e.g. "Middle East", "Indo-PACOM") are flagged and rendered as larger pins to avoid implying false precision.
- Videos are embedded from DVIDS using their public iframe API.
