For decades, sightings of unusual, spherical objects have been reported in our skies. Often described as metallic silver, translucent, or illuminated in fiery orange or red, flying objects matching this description were even reported by Allied pilots over Europe during WWII as a possible new advanced weapon developed by Nazi Germany.

info_outlineThe Pentagon has released its fourth tranche of videos and documents related to UAP under its Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters (PURSUE) initiative, with the latest batch of materials now available for viewing at the U.S. Department of War’s website. However, the latest revelations only add to a growing number of indistinct videos and other materials that raise more questions than they provide answers to.
This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we delve into what the latest PURSUE Release 04 contains and some of the questions that arise from viewing the new UAP materials. Is this really “Disclosure” that we’re seeing, or are the recent UAP materials released by the Pentagon just the latest distraction in a long history of similar efforts by the U.S. government?
