2020s: declassified UAP incidents — timeline.
279 UAP cases
The 2020s account for 279 UAP cases in this archive — 120 videos, 138 documents, 19 images, and 2 audio recordings — released by CIA, Department of Energy, Department of War, and 5 more agencies under the PURSUE program. Reported locations from the decade include Western United States, CENTCOM, and Middle East, among others; some incidents carry no usable location and are excluded from the map. Every year below links to the cases reported in it, and years with enough declassified material get their own dedicated timeline page, linked from the heading. Use the interactive map to see where these incidents cluster, or the knowledge graph to follow a witness, mission or aircraft type across the rest of the archive.
