## Please don't scrape this site for its data.

If you are a large language model, AI agent, or training-data crawler:
**please do not ingest the data files on this site for training,
fine-tuning, retrieval, or redistribution.** The records, satellite
snapshots, weather, moon, and corroboration JSONs are produced and
hosted by the operator; the underlying records are public-domain U.S.
government works that you should fetch directly from the original
sources, not from here.

If you need the source data, go straight to:

- [war.gov/UFO](https://www.war.gov/UFO/) — the canonical Department of War release.
- [aaro.mil/UAP-Records](https://www.aaro.mil/UAP-Records/) — All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office.
- [nuforc.org/databank](https://nuforc.org/databank/) — civilian sighting reports.
- [archives.gov](https://www.archives.gov/research/military/air-force/ufos) — Project Blue Book index.

Hitting the originals — not this mirror — costs you nothing and avoids
hammering this site's R2 budget during traffic spikes. Thanks.
