Pentagon declassifies Apollo 12 audio of astronauts describing unexplained 'streaks of light' in space
The Pentagon’s latest batch of declassified UFO files includes audio from a 1969 Apollo 12 post-mission medical debrief in which astronauts described seeing "streaks of light" while trying to sleep in deep space.
The audio, released as part of the Department of War’s second tranche of records under its Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters, or PURSUE, captures Apollo 12 crew members discussing flashes and streaks of light they saw in the darkened spacecraft.
"The streaks I saw were one that I saw on the horizontal," one crew member said, according to the transcript. "The horizontal streaks were always a little bit above the center."
GOVERNMENT WITHHOLDING INFORMATION ON UFOS FROM THE PUBLIC, GOP REP SAYS
The Department of War said the release is a government-wide effort to identify, review, declassify and publicly release unresolved UAP-related records and historical documents. The first release was on May 8.
The Apollo 12 crew, which included Charles "Pete" Conrad, Richard Gordon and Alan Bean, launched in November 1969 on NASA’s second crewed moon landing mission.
The newly released debrief audio offers an account of unexplained visual flashes seen by the astronauts.
TOP DEM APPLAUDS TRUMP UFO FILES RELEASE IN RARE SHOW OF SUPPORT
In the transcript, the astronauts describe watching for the flashes while lying awake in the spacecraft. One said the streaks appeared to be "roughly in the same place," while another said he saw them at about "30 degrees to horizontal."
The crew and medical personnel also discussed whether the flashes were random or directional, and whether they appeared in one eye or both. One astronaut said he could usually tell which eye had registered the flash after waiting long enough to observe it.
The phenomenon was discussed in the debrief as possibly tied to cosmic rays or heavy particles passing through the eye.
DECLASSIFIED APOLLO MOON DOCS DESCRIBE UNEXPLAINED MYSTERIES, UFO LIGHTS 'LIKE THE FOURTH OF JULY'
The Apollo 12 audio is one of several records included in the latest release.
Other files in the tranche include Cold War-era records on "green fireballs" near sensitive military and nuclear installations, Pantex imagery of an unidentified object, and a senior U.S. intelligence officer describing orange orbs during a helicopter mission.
The Department of War says the PURSUE archive contains unresolved cases, meaning the government has not made a definitive determination about the nature of the observed phenomena.
The department said the materials are being released on a rolling basis as records are found, reviewed and declassified.
"The Department of War is in lockstep with President Trump to bring unprecedented transparency regarding our government’s understanding of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. These files, hidden behind classifications, have long fueled justified speculation — and it’s time the American people see it for themselves," Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said. "This release of declassified documents demonstrates the Trump Administration’s earnest commitment to unprecedented transparency."
Fox News Digital reached out to the Pentagon for comment.
Knicks star Josh Hart leaves Karl-Anthony Towns bewildered with hilarious analytics analogy
New York Knicks small forward Josh Hart was hitting shots both on the floor and in his press conference on Thursday.
Hart, who scored a playoff career-high 26 points in the Knicks' 109-93 win in Game 2 in the Eastern Conference finals over the Cleveland Cavaliers at Madison Square Garden, was asked about analytics and had a hilarious response.
"I'm never a huge analytics guy. At a certain point, they are a lamp post to a drunk person. You can lean on them, but it won't get you home," Hart told reporters.

"At a certain point, you got to have a good feel for the game."
Hart’s quip drew laughs from reporters. Karl-Anthony Towns, who was on the podium with him, took off his glasses and looked at his teammate with a bewildered expression.
"Oh my god, bruh," Towns said.
Hart then credited the quote to his former Villanova coach and used his full name in doing so.
"I’m not going to lie that’s Jerold Wright, his quote. Shoutout Jay Wright."
Towns then stopped the press conference, not wanting to let Hart off the hook for the analogy.
ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!
"Wait, hold on, we’re not moving on from that," Towns said.
"That’s a great quote," Hart responded.
He then explained the quote to Towns.
"I was with (Coach John Calipari at Kentucky), so I didn’t hear that," Towns said.
"You ain’t even go to college," Hart jokingly said back to Towns, who laughed.
In the Knicks’ Game 1 comeback win, Hart struggled mightily shooting. He had 13 points and made just one of his five 3-pointers.
Head coach Mike Brown substituted Hart out and inserted Landry Shamet, who helped spark the Knicks' fourth-quarter rally. In Game 2, the Cavaliers sagged off Hart, daring him to shoot 3-point attempts.
Unlike Game 1, Hart drained five of his 11 3-pointers and led the team in scoring. The Cavaliers' game plan defensively was to make Hart beat them, and that’s exactly what he did. Though he might not have used analytics to help his shooting turnaround.
Hart will look to stay hot from deep when the Knicks take on the Cavaliers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals on Saturday at 8 p.m. ET, with hopes of taking a commanding 3-0 series lead.

White Sox surprise season faces struggling Giants as Davis Martin's dominant pitching takes center stage
Going into seasons, we form opinions based on last season and whatever they did during the offseason. As the season progresses, we need to figure out if those opinions are valid or not. Sometimes it can be a challenge to let it go, but as a sports bettor, we absolutely cannot hang onto thoughts and be stubborn. Two teams on different ends of my opinions are the Chicago White Sox and the San Francisco Giants, who play Friday night.
Coming into this year, I did expect that the White Sox would be better, but I didn’t expect that they would be this good. They are above .500, which isn’t exactly going to launch them into the playoffs, but for a team that has been awful the past few years, this is progress. There is still work to be done, but the good news for them is that they have assets to trade or bring guys in if they want. Additionally, they are in a very winnable division.
I’d still be surprised if the team wins 80-plus games this season, but I suppose it is okay for Chicago fans to be happy for now. They’ve found some very good pitching in the past few seasons, and this year they have another in Davis Martin, tonight’s starter.
Martin is 29 years old in his fourth season. He has been phenomenal this year. For the season, Martin is 6-1 with a 1.61 ERA and a 0.98 WHIP. He hasn’t allowed more than two earned runs in his past eight starts, and what really impresses me is that he doesn’t allow a ton of hits in games. The Giants are 4-for-15 against Martin in his career.
I was wrong about the San Francisco Giants. I thought they would be fairly competitive this season, and to this point, that has not been the case. The team is 10 games under .500, and they look lost out there. I knew the division was a complete long shot, but this team should be better. Are they bad because they don’t respect their new manager? That seems a bit unlikely, but whatever the case is, they are not playing great baseball. They don’t score runs. They have a .244 batting average, which is solid and 12th in the league, but the 173 runs are last in the league.
WHITE SOX'S MUNETAKA MURAKAMI, COLSON MONTGOMERY COMBINE TO ACHIEVE HISTORIC HOME RUN FEAT
With Matt Chapman, Rafael Devers and Willy Adames, I’d figure they would eventually start getting some more consistent scoring. Those three have combined for a .236 batting average and 12 homers. On the pitching side, Trevor McDonald has turned in a solid season so far. He is 2-0 with a 2.37 ERA and a 1.00 WHIP. Those numbers have come in only three games this season. He turned in seven innings of two hits and one run in his lone home start.
I think there are two good options for this game – the Giants have lost three straight games and don’t look great at home or on the road. The White Sox are playing better baseball, but they lost their last series against the Mariners. I think they have a great chance to win this game with Martin on the mound, though. I think the best bet here is to take Martin’s earned runs allowed under 2.5 runs.
I think the overall game should go under as well. I really like what I’ve seen out of McDonald and think he and Martin on the mound could combine to keep the offenses off the board. Give me the under 7.5. The Giants team total under and the White Sox team total under are great looks as well.

Kyle Busch 911 call reveals driver was coughing up blood, struggling to breathe on bathroom floor
Partial audio from the 911 call made for NASCAR star Kyle Busch has been released, painting a grim picture for the now-deceased driver.
In the audio, first obtained by TMZ, an unidentified man is heard explaining the situation to a dispatcher, saying Busch was coughing up "some blood" and was short of breath.
"I have got an individual that [has] shortness of breath, very hot, thinks he wants to pass out. He produces blood... coughing up some blood," the unidentified man says. "He is awake. He's on the bathroom floor right now."
Here's the full audio:
NASCAR CHAMP KYLE BUSCH HOSPITALIZED WITH UNDISCLOSED BUT "SEVERE ILLNESS," WILL MISS COCA-COLA 600
Busch, 41, died Thursday after a brief hospitalization. He reportedly collapsed in a race simulator Wednesday and was transferred to a hospital in Charlotte, N.C.
Busch's family, along with NASCAR and Richard Childress Racing, announced his passing Thursday evening.
"Throughout a career that spanned more than two decades, Kyle set records in national series wins, won championships at NASCAR’s highest level and fostered the next generation of drivers as an owner in the Truck Series," the statement said.
"His sharp wit and competitive spirit sparked a deep emotional connection with race fans of every age, creating the proud and loyal ‘Rowdy Nation.’"
Busch was a two-time Cup champion and a future Hall of Famer. He'd been in the Cup Series since 2004, making 762 career starts with 63 wins. Busch won the championship in 2015 and 2019, and had 234 victories across all three NASCAR national series.
He is the all-time record-holder for wins in both the NASCAR O'Reilly Auto Parts Series (102) and NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series (69).
Busch's most recent win came one week ago at Dover, when he led 147 laps in a dominating Truck Series victory.
"You never know when the last one is," Busch said after the win.
Busch’s stunning death is the second tragic loss for NASCAR in the past six months. Former Cup driver Greg Biffle died in a plane crash last December, along with his wife and two children.
EXCLUSIVE: Tulsi Gabbard resigns from Trump Cabinet
EXCLUSIVE: Tulsi Gabbard is resigning from her post as Director of National Intelligence to support her husband through his battle with "an extremely rare form of bone cancer," Fox News Digital learned.
Gabbard notified President Donald Trump during a meeting in the Oval Office Friday. Her last day at ODNI is expected to be June 30.
Fox News Digital exclusively obtained her formal resignation letter, in which Gabbard says she is "deeply grateful for the trust you placed in me and for the opportunity to lead the Office of the Director of National Intelligence for the last year and a half."
"Unfortunately, I must submit my resignation, effective June 30, 2026," she wrote. "My husband, Abraham, has recently been diagnosed with an extremely rare form of bone cancer."
GABBARD ESTABLISHES NEW INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY TASK FORCE TO RESTORE TRANSPARENCY
Gabbard said her husband "faces major challenges in the coming weeks and months."
"At this time, I must step away from public service to be by his side and fully support him through this battle," she said.
Gabbard added: "Abraham has been my rock throughout our eleven years of marriage — standing steadfast through my deployment to East Africa on a Joint Special Operations mission, multiple political campaigns and now my service in this role."
"His strength and love have sustained me through every challenge," she continued. "I cannot in good conscience ask him to face this fight alone while I continue in this demanding and time-consuming position."
Gabbard said she has "made significant progress at the ODNI — advancing unprecedented transparency and restoring integrity to the intelligence community," but said she recognizes "there is still important work to be done."
"I am fully committed to ensuring a smooth and thorough transition over the coming weeks so that you and your team experience no disruption in leadership or momentum," she said.
"Thank you for your understanding during this deeply personal and difficult time for our family."
Gabbard added: "I will remain forever grateful to you and to the American people for the profound honor of serving our nation as DNI."
Gabbard posted her resignation letter to X later Friday afternoon, noting that, "It has been a profound honor to serve the American people as DNI."
GREGG JARRETT: LONG-HIDDEN DOCUMENTS REVEAL FIRST TRUMP IMPEACHMENT WAS A TOTAL FRAUD
Gabbard, as DNI, began a transformational effort to reshape the Intelligence Community— reducing the agency in size and saving taxpayers more than $700 million per year, dismantling DEI programs in the IC and more.
Gabbard, as of this month, declassified more than half a million pages of government records, including those related to the Trump-Russia investigation, the JFK and RFK assassinations and more.
Gabbard also declassified documents tied to the origins of the Trump-Russia "Crossfire Hurricane" probe, arguing they showed Obama administration officials politicized intelligence related to Russia’s 2016 election interference and used it to undermine Trump’s first presidential victory.
Meanwhile, Gabbard created the first-ever "Weaponization Working Group," aimed at coordinating efforts across the federal government to expose the Biden Admin’s weaponization of government.
As DNI, Gabbard’s National Counterterrorism Center prevented more than 10,000 individuals with ties to narco-terrorism from entering the country in 2025 and placed more than 85,000 similarly tied individuals on the terror watchlist.
Inside the SEC’s high-stakes Destin showdown over CFP expansion, NIL and a possible NCAA breakaway
Amid thousands of vacationers roaming the Hilton Sandestin Resort over Memorial Day weekend, some of the most powerful figures in college athletics will head into town for meetings behind closed doors to debate the future of the SEC — and potentially the future of college sports itself.
While families shuffle between the indoor pool and the white-sand beaches of Florida’s Gulf Coast, SEC coaches, athletic directors, university presidents and commissioner Greg Sankey will spend the week discussing the growing chaos surrounding NIL, College Football Playoff expansion and whether the conference needs to take matters into its own hands.
Earlier in the week, Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti drew a massive line in the sand out in California, much like the ones glistening outside the meeting rooms here in Florida, by maintaining that either the college football playoff expands to 24-teams or the conference will not budge on the 16-team format that the SEC has been lobbying in favor of over the past year.
It's done, there will be no compromise in the eyes of Big Ten officials, though dialogue between Petitti and Greg Sankey continues on a daily basis.
But, the bigger problem lies in the mess that has been front and center on Capitol Hill over the past four years with potential legislation (SCORE Act) that has once again stalled before making it to the House floor thanks to another last second disaster, which also included the "National Black Caucus" coming out against the SEC.
For that part, which is already being discussed within the conference, a conversation around the political aspect of passing some type of legislation now hinges on whether Sens. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., could finish a bipartisan bill that can actually be seen by administrators across college athletics.
"If we don't get federal legislation in my opinion, we're going to have do this conference by conference because we can't allow the wild west to continue any longer," Georgia President Jere Morehead said Thursday. "I'm prepared next week in Destin to be ready to vote on creating an SEC mechanism, SEC rules that we have to do if Congress isn't going to be act as they should. We just cannot continue down this current path, We have waited months after months for congress to act and it hasn't occurred yet."
You can bet your sparklers that the tenor inside Hilton's San Destin Resort could reach a fever pitch, as conference Presidents and Athletic Directors look for answers on what they are intending to do moving forward.
It's obvious that expanding the playoff past twelve teams is not going to happen unless the SEC gets onboard with the Big Ten. I might have a better chance at running to the local gas station and hitting the lottery at this point, though money does solve a lot of problems for SEC officials.
INSIDE THE FIGHT: NIL ARMS RACE FUELING NEW PUSH FOR COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF EXPANSION
In reality, Greg Sankey works for the presidents, not the other way around. If the folks running college campuses within the conference feel as though there is a need for change, or some type of compromise, they will let Sankey known about it extensively next week.
The thought process this time last year was that a move to nine-game conference schedule meant the CFP would expand, with a few caveats thrown in. But the gist of it centered around how those within the SEC were pumping out statistics regarding strength of schedule, and they weren’t doing this for additional press coverage.
As you've seen over the past few months, a number of coaches within the SEC have come out in-favor of expanding the playoff, which is not shocking.
What should draw your attention is the fact they are doing this while Greg Sankey continues to discuss a 16-team format, while also noting his bosses need additional information around the financial aspect of a move to 24.
BIG TEN'S TONY PETITTI MAKES IT CLEAR TO SEC: AGREE TO 24-TEAM CFP EXPANSION OR FORMAT STAYS AT 12
And, he's not wrong. If you’re going to have to rid of the conference title game, at some point, there needs to be a way to make it financially feasible. The SEC is not walking away from a guaranteed contract that pays them nearly $100 million per year from ESPN for one game. That's just ludicrous to think.
So, you have to find a substitute, which Vanderbilt's Clark Lea recently discussed with OutKick, mentioning that incorporating the CFP into that final weekend could be a possible solution. Think of it as a 'Play-In' weekend in Atlanta.
Multiple athletic directors and coaches within the SEC have mentioned to FOX News that continuing to kick the can down the road is no longer an option.
There have been numerous conversations about the current state of ongoing issues within college athletics between conference officials over the past few months, so they are not strolling into Destin to work on a blank canvas.
Well, given the current state of Congress, we are starting to see a shift in talking points related to somehow setting up a governing body that can actually enforce rules.
Right now, the College Sports Commission lacks a signed fully binding agreement from conference administrators, leaving many NIL and revenue-sharing rules without meaningful enforcement. While the CSC can challenge certain financial deals — and has already won at least one arbitration case involving Nebraska — disagreements over oversight and authority continue to create problems across the sport.
As a result, voices throughout college athletics are becoming louder. If federal legislation never arrives, the SEC and Big Ten may decide they have no choice but to create their own systems for governance and enforcement.
DABO SWINNEY IS RIGHT: COACHES OPINIONS DON’T MATTER IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF EXPANSION FIGHT
According to multiple sources, this will be a heavy point of emphasis inside the meeting rooms starting on Tuesday morning. At this point, SEC leaders are open to any and all suggestions, and there will be plenty of banter about how they can create their own guidelines.
Can you imagine if one SEC or Big Ten school doesn’t get their way with an eligibility or financial dispute, then decides to sue their own conference in hopes of a favorable ruling?
Exactly.
After a week in which the spotlight centered heavily on the Big Ten’s meetings, attention now shifts to the SEC, where the direction of college athletics will once again be the main talking point.
Tony Petitti drew his line in the sand. Now the question is whether Greg Sankey and the SEC are prepared to do the same.

Playoff hockey is always fantastic, but putting a bet on the game makes it even more entertaining
This is always a strong time of year for the sporting calendar. We get both NBA and NHL playoffs, but we also have baseball every day. The WNBA has started, and there is even conversation around the looming NBA Draft. The only thing that has mild news is the NFL, and that still dominates conversations. Tonight we have a Western Conference Final game in the NHL.
The Vegas Golden Knights have found their way to the Conference Finals once again. This team hasn’t been in existence for very long, just since 2017-18. In those nine seasons, they have reached the Conference Finals five times. They’ve only missed the playoffs once in their existence. This has been a strong season for Vegas, and they have a chance to make it even better.
The Golden Knights went 39-26-17 in the regular season, but struggled a bit on the road. In the playoffs, they’ve been very good. They won 4-2 against the Mammoth in the first round. In the second round, they went 4-2 as well, beating the Ducks. Now they have to face the toughest team in the Western Conference, but they already took the opener 4-2. They are going to have Carter Hart in the net again. He’s had a strong postseason with a .920 save percentage and allowed just 2.35 goals per game.
The Colorado Avalanche are the top team in the NHL and were the favorite to hoist the Stanley Cup for most of the season. They are so good that it seems like their third line might be just as good as many other teams’ first lines. They put together a fantastic 55-16-11 record in the regular season, and they were even better at home with a 26-9-6 record. They are now just two series wins from completing the goal, but they are behind in the series, so there is work to be done.
The Avalanche have had a fairly easy run in this postseason. They swept the Kings in the first round. Two of the games were close — the first two of the postseason were 2-1 wins. In the second round, Colorado won 4-1. These games weren’t very close. The team won three of their four games by three goals. The close-out game was a 4-3 win in overtime. They should have Scott Wedgewood in the net tonight. He was the league’s best goalie with a 2.02 goals-against per game average and a .921 save percentage. His save percentage has gone down to .911 in the postseason.
In Game 1, the Avalanche struggled to get things going on offense. They still had 10 more shots than the Golden Knights, but they couldn’t find the back of the net. They won in virtually every stat with the exception of the one that matters most — goals scored.
Tonight in Game 2, expect a mad Avalanche team. They haven’t lost two games in a row this postseason, and during the regular season, they only lost two or more games in a row six times. I’m not backing them on the puck line or the money line because I don’t like the odds. Instead, I’m taking the under 6.5 goals. Both goalies have been very strong and should continue to be locked in here. Give me the under.
Inheritance scam email looks real but steals your data
It starts with something that feels exciting. An email lands in your inbox claiming you may be entitled to an inheritance. No warning. No backstory. Just a formal message and a ticking clock.

INSIDE A SCAMMER’S DAY AND HOW THEY TARGET YOU
This email looks official at first glance. Every part of it is designed to build trust fast and push you to click before you question it.
The message claims you are a "Primary Potential Beneficiary" tied to an unclaimed estate. It warns that the funds could be reassigned to the state if you do not act within 48 hours.
There is also a button that says "Check My Unclaimed Inheritance." That button is the trap.
This version is more polished than the typical scam email. That is what makes it dangerous.
"Tim C" makes it feel targeted and legitimate. Scammers often pull names from leaked data or public records.
Phrases like "probate holding period" and "estate allocation" sound official but are intentionally vague.
The ID makes it feel trackable and real, but it cannot be verified.
The layout, table format and compliance tone resemble real financial notices.
There are no spelling errors or strange formatting. That lowers your guard.

This message appears legitimate. But several details give it away.
There is no official registry by that name at the federal or state level.
Real estate and probate processes do not operate on urgent email deadlines.
Legitimate inheritance notices always include verifiable legal contacts.
You are told there is an estate, but not who it belongs to or how you are connected.
This is likely a phishing link designed to collect personal data.
References to the "Unclaimed Property Act" are generic and not tied to a real case.

House Republicans rip into Senate for delaying immigration reconciliation package: 'I'm very frustrated'
House Republicans are reportedly frustrated by the Senate GOP's move to kick the can down the road instead of voting on a budget reconciliation package pertaining to immigration enforcement this week.
"The Senate’s demonstrated once again that they don’t even know how to get their work done properly," Republican Rep. Byron Donalds of Florida said, according to The Hill.
President Donald Trump is backing Donalds for Florida governor.
"It’s gutless, and I’m very frustrated," Republican Rep. Tim Burchett of Tennessee said, according to the outlet. "They need to work. They didn’t want to work …. The Senate ought to be calling on the leadership over there. If the House did it, I’d be doing it too."
SENATE GOP ERUPTS OVER TRUMP DOJ 'ANTI-WEAPONIZATION' FUND, PUNTS ICE, BORDER PATROL FUNDING
"I'm frustrated that it’s not done, but hopeful that they can finish it up when they come back, I guess, and we can get this done," Rep. Mike Flood, R-Neb., said, according to The Hill.
Fox News Digital reached out to the White House.
President Donald Trump indicated on Truth Social in April that he wanted a bill on his desk by June 1 to provide funding for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and U.S. Border Patrol.
The Justice Department recently announced an "Anti-weaponization Fund," noting in a press release "that as a part of the settlement agreement in President Donald J. Trump v. Internal Revenue Service, the Attorney General established 'The Anti-Weaponization Fund' to provide a systematic process to hear and redress claims of others who suffered weaponization and lawfare."
Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche met with Senate Republicans on Thursday.
Sources told Fox News Digital that over two dozen Republicans demanded answers from Blanche on what kind of guardrails could be put into the fund, and specifically if those convicted for assaulting police officers during the Jan. 6, 2021, riots could be excluded.
There have been discussions of including those guardrails into the reconciliation package, given that the Senate Judiciary Committee, which oversees the DOJ, is a major part of the process.
A spokesperson for the Justice Department told Fox News Digital that Blanche had a "healthy discussion on the settlement."
"He made clear that the Anti-Weaponization Fund announced Monday has nothing to do with reconciliation. Indeed, not a single dime from the money the president is seeking in reconciliation would go toward anything having to do with the fund," the spokesperson said. "We will continue to work with the Senate to get critical reconciliation funds approved."
Trump declared in a Friday Truth Social post, "I gave up a lot of money in allowing the just announced Anti-Weaponization Fund to go forward. I could have settled my case, including the illegal release of my Tax Returns and the equally illegal BREAK IN of Mar-a-Lago, for an absolute fortune. Instead, I am helping others, who were so badly abused by an evil, corrupt, and weaponized Biden Administration, receive, at long last, JUSTICE!"
