By Anthony F. Sanchez, Author & UFO Researcher For UFO Currents On May 8, 2026, the first batch of President Donald Trump ’s long-promised UFO files officially dropped — 162 documents, videos, and images released through the government portal war.gov/ufo. Interestingly, the material did not appear under a more symbolic or public-facing domain such as “aliens.gov,” as many online had speculated, but instead under a hardened national security framework tied directly to the federal government. The files reportedly originated from the Pentagon, FBI, NASA, and the Department of State.

If you have followed the UFO/UAP subject for years, your first reaction may have been disappointment. Frankly, that reaction would be understandable.

By Anthony F. Sanchez, Author & UFO Researcher For UFO Currents Let me tell you about a time when America dreamed out loud.

This isn’t about going backward. It’s about remembering who we were when we were at our best—so we can hold that mirror to who we are now. Before we called each other enemies, we were neighbors. Before we feared decline, we believed in ascent....

By Anthony F. Sanchez, Author & UFO Researcher For UFO Currents I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Erich von Däniken (1935–2026). I had the esteemed pleasure of meeting Erich from October 18–21, 2012 , in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where I was honored to be a speaker alongside him, George Noory, Linda Moulton Howe, Bill Birnes, Giorgio A. Tsoukalos, Phillip Coppens, Dr. Rita Louise, Marie D. Jones, Dr. John Ward, Ian Punnett, Dan Madsen, Nick Redfern, John Ventre, Scotty Roberts, Micah Hanks, and so many dear friends. It was at the Paradigm Symposium that a dream came true for me, meeting Erich. One moment from that weekend will stay with me forever... Imagine my surprise when Scotty Roberts seated me at dinner between Erich von Däniken and the late Phillip Coppens... two giants of our field. Sitting between them was an honor beyond words. Phillip passed away shortly after that weekend, but his presence was profound and his kindness unforgettable. Erich, too, was warm, g...
