The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, under the Department of Homeland Security, registered the two extraterrestrial sites Tuesday, according to get.gov, the domain registry managed by the CISA.
President Trump said in February that he would direct U.S. agencies to “begin the process of identifying and releasing” government files on aliens and UFOs after he accused former President Barack Obama of disclosing “classified information” when Mr. Obama suggested that aliens were real on a podcast.
Shortly thereafter, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the Pentagon was ready to comply with Mr. Trump’s order.
Both domains are on Cloudflare servers, an internet management company that hosts websites such as Amazon, Zoom and OpenAI.
Neither website is live — yet.
When inquired about the timeline and contents of the website, White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said, “Stay tuned!” with an alien emoji in a statement to The Washington Times.
A banner on get.gov says that due to a lapse in federal funding for the Department of Homeland Security, new domain requests aren’t accepted.
The federal government already has a pseudo-website on extraterrestrial evidence.
The National Archives and Records Administration is actively collecting unidentified aerial phenomena records and publishing them on a rolling basis, mandated by legislation signed by former President Joseph R. Biden. Some records are available to the public on the National Archives website.
The president can still postpone the release of specific documents if they pose a threat to national security.
Separately, the Defense Department created the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office in 2022 under the Biden administration as the hub for detecting and investigating UAP, the modern term for unidentified flying objects.
The office has long said it has found no evidence of extraterrestrial activity.
