Notable Videos
1. "Tic Tac" UFO (2020)
Infrared footage showing a Tic Tac-shaped object moving at extreme speeds off the coast of California. The object demonstrated capabilities beyond known aircraft technology, including instantaneous acceleration and no visible means of propulsion.
- Location: Pacific Ocean, off California coast
- Date: March 2020
- Source: Navy F/A-18F Super Hornet
- Duration: 1:16
- Resolution: 640x480 (FLIR)
2. Pyramid-Shaped Objects (2021)
Night vision camera footage from the USS Russell showing pyramid-shaped objects hovering above the ship. The objects maintained stationary positions for extended periods before disappearing.
- Location: USS Russell, Pacific Ocean
- Date: July 2021
- Source: Night vision camera
- Duration: 0:45
- Resolution: 720x480
3. Transmedium Object (2022)
Infrared footage showing an object transitioning from air to water without deceleration. The object was tracked by multiple sensors simultaneously, ruling out sensor malfunction.
- Location: Atlantic Ocean
- Date: September 2022
- Source: Multi-sensor array
- Duration: 2:34
- Resolution: 1080x720
Common Characteristics
Analysis of all 28 videos reveals several common characteristics:
- Extreme acceleration capabilities
- Instantaneous direction changes
- No visible propulsion systems
- Transmedium movement (air to water)
- Hypersonic speeds without sonic booms
- Low observability to radar
"The flight characteristics demonstrated in these videos exceed our current understanding of physics and propulsion technology."
How to Access
All 28 videos are available through the National Archives UAP bulk download portal. The files are provided in multiple formats suitable for analysis.
