The Barack Obama Presidential Library claims it has “3,440 pages and 26,271 electronic files” possibly related to the existence of UFOs and related phenomenon.
We know this thanks to a Freedom of Information Act request filed by John Greenewald Jr., of The Black Vault, a clearinghouse of declassified government documents. Greenewald asked the Presidential Library for “documents and communications about the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program and photos and videos of Unidentified Flying Objects, Unidentified Aerial Phenomena/Phenomenon and the Advanced Aerospace Weapons Systems Application Program.”
In response to the FOIA request, the library said it had thousands of documents that might be possibly related to this request and that it would take some time to sort through it all. Interest in UFOs has risen in recent years following the release of U.S. Navy videos detailing encounters with unexampled aerial phenomenon. Last year, the Pentagon released a report claiming that not everything seen in the sky could be explained away with current science.
