Released July 10, 2026·40 documents

Release 04: 40 declassified UAP files — NASA's STS-80 shuttle images and Apollo debrief audio, the Navy's Range Fouler cockpit videos, and 1948 Project Sign

Tranche four of the Department of War's Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters (PURSUE), released July 10, 2026. 40 records spanning 1948-2025: NASA's three STS-80 Space Shuttle Columbia images and Apollo 14 and 17 crew debriefing audio, the U.S. Navy's Range Fouler debriefs and their paired cockpit videos (Gulf of America, Yellow Sea, East and South China Seas, the Atlantic), 1948-49 Project Sign and Air Intelligence flying-object studies, CIA Cold-War memoranda, the Department of Energy's Los Alamos conference and Pantex incident files, and FBI UFO correspondence. 14 PDFs, 19 videos, 3 images, and 4 audio recordings across five agencies.

Fourth tranche under PURSUE; the first three dropped May 8, May 22, and June 12, 2026. The Department of Energy returns to this tranche (last seen in Release 02). Unlike Release 03, war.gov published the individual files: PDF and image records deep-link their direct war.gov medialink asset via pdfUrl, while video and audio records (served through DVIDS on the release page) leave pdfUrl null and rely on the sourceUrl deep-link. Whole-release bundles are also posted (Release 04 documents ~227MB, videos ~1.4GB). Scraped from war.gov's uap-data.csv via the Chrome MCP (Akamai blocks headless/curl) on 2026-07-10.
