alt Hacker NewsThe US Department of Defense has published a CSV dataset containing UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) observation records. It appears to include structured entries that can be used for independent analysis and research.
Dataset: https://www.war.gov/Portals/1/Interactive/2026/UFO/uap-csv.c...

Could be useful for anyone interested in data analysis, anomaly detection, or open government datasets.

I'm pretty sure they renamed it the departement of war, for some reason

Thank you for the links. I was able to find the CSV too by taking a look at the network sources from the webpage. I find that the dataset is messy, with missing data. For example, 65_HS1-834228961_62-HQ-83894_Serial_153 has a link that doesn't work either in the CSV nor the webpage.
On the other hand, there is no link in the CSV for NASA-UAP-D3A, Gemini 7 Audio Excerpt, 1965 but the link in the webpage does work. It utilizes https://api.dvidshub.net/ to request the content.
Another example are incident dates like with DOW-UAP-PR36, Unresolved UAP Report, Middle East, May 2020 that are N/A in the CSV but have an incorrect one inside the snippet (5/1/20 as opposed to 5/14/20). It also seems like there are duplicate incidents just with different media. By the way, the video in this incident is compelling.
I look forward to dissecting the dataset but it's far from perfect. There is definitely a massive amount of potential here.
