Question 1

Are the UFO sightings and case files on this site real?

Accepted Answer

Yes — every case file on Project Unredacted is based on documented events, declassified government files, historical records, and verified eyewitness accounts. We don't publish fiction. Each case includes cited sources and a verdict rating (Confirmed, Plausible, Uncertain, Doubtful, or Debunked) so you can evaluate the evidence yourself. Some cases like MKUltra and COINTELPRO are proven government programs backed by declassified documents, while others like Bigfoot sightings remain unverified.

Question 2

What are the most convincing UFO cases with real evidence?

Accepted Answer

Our archive includes several UFO cases with strong evidence: the USS Nimitz Tic Tac Encounter (2004) with Pentagon-released FLIR video, the Tehran UFO Incident (1976) confirmed by military radar and multiple F-4 pilots, the Rendlesham Forest Incident (1980) documented by US Air Force personnel, and the Phoenix Lights (1997) witnessed by thousands including the state governor. Browse our Best UFO Cases page for the full ranked list based on evidence strength.

Question 3

Have any conspiracy theories on this site been proven true?

Accepted Answer

Yes — 10 cases in our archive are rated 'Confirmed' with undeniable evidence. MKUltra (CIA mind control experiments on unwitting citizens, 1953-1973), COINTELPRO (FBI's illegal surveillance of civil rights leaders), the Tuskegee Syphilis Study (40-year government experiment on Black men), and Operation Paperclip (secret recruitment of Nazi scientists) are all verified through declassified documents and congressional hearings. Visit our Confirmed Cases page for the complete list.

Question 4

What kind of evidence do you include in case files?

Accepted Answer

Each case file can include photographs, video footage, audio recordings, declassified government documents, radar data, forensic analysis, and eyewitness testimony. Every case file in the archive carries its own evidence set. Evidence is sourced from FOIA releases, news archives, academic papers, military records, and verified eyewitness statements. We cite every source so you can verify the evidence independently.

Question 5

How do you decide if a case is Confirmed, Plausible, or Debunked?

Accepted Answer

Our verdict system has five ratings: Confirmed (verified by official documents or undeniable evidence), Plausible (strong evidence but not conclusive), Uncertain (ambiguous or insufficient evidence), Doubtful (weak or contradictory evidence), and Debunked (disproven by investigation or exposed as fraud). Verdicts are based on source quality, corroboration across independent witnesses, physical evidence, and whether official agencies have acknowledged the events.

Question 6

Is Project Unredacted free?

Accepted Answer

Yes — completely free. Every case file, evidence gallery, eyewitness report, and investigation finding is free to access on both the website and the iOS app. No subscription, no paywalls, no gated content.

Question 7

What do I get in the iOS app that I can't get on the website?

Accepted Answer
