If you're a fan of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and alien visitation, this is manna from heaven.
Three videos showing U.S. Navy pilots encountering mysterious, fast-moving objects emerged in 2017 and 2018. The videos were made public due to reporting by The New York Times and efforts by To The Stars Academy, a research, development and media center for cutting-edge science and technology.
One of the UAP videos was taken in November 2004, and the other two were shot in January 2015. All were captured by Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet jets with pilots utilizing Forward-Looking Infrared (FLIR) technology, hardware that detects heat and creates images.

Pentagon to set up new unit to investigate UFOs
Rather than little green alien invaders, the US military is actually concerned about "unidentified aerial phenomena" connected with its terrestrial adversaries.
Washington is particularly concerned about China's spying capabilities, using drones or other airborne means.
"The mission of the task force is to detect, analyze and catalog UAPs that could potentially pose a threat to US national security ," Gough said.
The Pentagon take "any incursions by unauthorized aircraft into our training ranges or designated airspace very seriously and examine each report," she said.
How many alien civilizations are out there?
The Pentagon is forming a task force to look into that — or at least, UFOs, which aren't necessarily aliens but could be — according to a report this week.
And, in June, The Astrophysical Journal had a story that said not only do aliens exist, there's a whole lot of them out there.

OK. To everyone still here, why is Bob Lazar on my mind? Because I just read a New York Times story — “No Longer in Shadows, Pentagon’s U.F.O. Unit Will Make Some Findings Public” — that includes a buried nugget about how astrophysicist and Pentagon contractor Eric W. Davis gave a classified briefing to government officials in March about retrieved “off-world vehicles not made on this earth.”

As evening descends over the UFO Watchtower in south-central Colorado, the heavens transform into a mesmerizing black canvas sprinkled by twinkling stars and distant galaxies too numerous to imagine. With it comes overwhelming stillness and a profound sense of isolation.
Pentagon releases UFO videos for the record - BBC News
The US Department of Defense has released three declassified videos of "unexplained aerial phenomena".
The Pentagon said it wanted to "clear up any misconceptions by the public on whether or not the footage that has been circulating was real".

After they were first leaked, some people claimed the videos showed alien unidentified flying objects (UFOs).
According to the New York Times, a clip from 2004 was filmed by two navy fighter pilots and shows a round object hovering above the water, about 100 miles (160 km) out into the Pacific Ocean.
Pentagon UFO report: The case for taking these videos seriously - Vox
Earlier this year, the Pentagon released three videos of UFOs recorded by the Navy — one taken in 2004 and the other two in 2015. The videos, which first leaked a couple of years ago, show … well, it's not exactly clear.
There are various objects — two of which look like aircraft — spinning through the sky and moving in ways that defy easy explanation. As the images bop across the screen, you can hear the pilots' excitement and confusion in real time as they track whatever it is they're seeing.
