The civilian UFO and UAP intel archive.
Seventy-three plain files on UFO sightings, reported alien species, the UAP public record and first contact protocol, sorted into six categories. Every file answers one question: what should a civilian do before the official briefing arrives?
The terms these files use, from AARO to CE3, are defined in the UFO and UAP glossary.
