DOW-UAP-PR159, Historical Film of Reported UFOs, Utah, 1952 This archival footage is a digitization of a 16mm print of Kodachrome color motion-picture film shot on a handheld Bell & Howell Auto Master camera near Tremonton, Utah, on July 2, 1952. U.S. Navy Chief Warrant Officer Delbert C. Newhouse reported observing and filming a group of bright airborne objects and shortly thereafter submitted the footage to the U.S. Air Force. The film later became one of the visual cases reviewed by Project Blue Book, the 1952–1969 U.S. Air Force program that investigated the nature and origin of unidentified flying objects (UFOs). The film’s limited detail and lack of fixed reference points prevented a conclusive resolution. From the 55-second mark onward, the film transitions to unrelated footage appearing to show a demonstration of sewing equipment. The presence of unrelated sewing-equipment footage suggests that the surviving footage may be a composite or reused print, though the available record does not establish how or when the materials came to be combined. As documented in records submitted with the film, contained in this collection under the title DOW-UAP-D102, the footage originally was paired with mountain scenery from Idaho, which is not preserved in this digitization.

Do people not know this video has been around for decades, as released by the U.S. government? Here is the previous NARA release that was digitized, and the "new" "4K" (according to FoxNews) version. I took the highest resolution available from DVIDS to compare. Why is there so much focus on recycled stuff and why is it being pushed as "new"? This isn't against FoxNews, nor is it unique to this newest release of records. This has gone on with nearly every drop by PURSUE. It's... strange. The AAWSAP material I got under FOIA and published years ago (documents2.theblackvault.com…) Yes, there is new stuff, but it seems like that stuff is being overshadowed by recycled stuff.
