Read the Pentagon UFO report newly released by the Department of Defense

Updated on: March 8, 2024 / 12:19 PM EST / CBS News

The Pentagon released a report Friday outlining the U.S. government's historical record of UAP, or unidentified anomalous phenomena, the formal name for objects that had previously been known as UFOs. The 63-page unredacted report is the first of an expected two volumes by the Department of Defense's All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office that examine and analyze information gathered by the U.S. government about UAP sightings.

The report states that the office found no evidence that any government investigation, academic research or official review panel has confirmed that any UAP sighting "represented extraterrestrial technology."

"All investigative efforts, at all levels of classification, concluded that most sightings were ordinary objects and phenomena and the result of misidentification," the report said.
