The Government's 'New' UFO File Is Footage Project Blue Book Already Studied — IRH 299
Description
The same week the government strengthened legal protection for UAP whistleblowers, it also released newly digitized footage through its disclosure portal, marketed as new evidence. It's actually the Tremonton, Utah film from 1952, one of the most heavily studied UFO cases in history, already picked apart by Project Blue Book, the CIA's Roberts Panel, and the Condon Committee decades ago. Multiple outlets called the release underwhelming; one called it a distraction outright. Real legal progress and a recycled old file, landing in the very same week.
Should we be worried? Anthropic's own CEO just gave the public a six-month-to-one-year timeline before a swarm of AI agents could take over the internet if safeguards don't catch up, a new poll shows most Americans now share that concern, and a leading AI researcher is publicly backing the alarm.
Also this week: science named its first new living cat species in more than a century, the Tilkeo cat, hiding in plain sight for years in a pattern that mirrors some of cryptozoology's most famous wins. Plus a Singapore data center running partly on living human neurons, hard mountain dew hitting shelves, a very specific million-dollar Bigfoot bounty, a UFO-only art exhibition, and a voice-controlled cryptid-hunting video game launching next month.
