A working archive. Every case opened with what's actually known — documents, witnesses, timelines — and closed only where the evidence allows.
Browse the FilesMost coverage of mysteries, declassified documents, and conspiracy stories has the same problem: it either dramatizes what's thin, or it dismisses what's documented. AnomalyDesk uses one format across every case, so a reader can tell, in 30 seconds, exactly what the evidence supports and exactly where it runs out.
Each case file moves through the same sections in the same order. What's known is the part with sources behind it — declassified records, court filings, eyewitness depositions, contemporary news, peer-reviewed work. What's claimed is the mainstream or institutional explanation, presented fairly. What's missing is the gap: the questions the evidence doesn't answer, the documents still classified, the testimonies that contradict the record. The evidence is the primary material itself — document scans, photographs, transcripts — linked directly. The timeline puts events in order so a reader can see the sequence the way investigators do.
We don't claim to solve cases that haven't been solved. The point of a working file is to make the state of the evidence legible, not to invent an ending.
The archive is organized by the kind of case — not because the categories are airtight (they bleed into each other constantly) but because the evidence works differently in each one.
Government records, FOIA releases, leaked documents, intelligence histories. MK-Ultra. JFK. COINTELPRO. Operation Northwoods. The recent UAP releases. Cases where the primary source is now public.
Pillar 02Incidents the record captured but never explained. Dyatlov Pass, Roanoke, the Lake Anjikuni disappearance, the Mary Celeste. The cases where the file stays open because the evidence stays incomplete.
Pillar 03Theories evaluated against evidence rather than promoted or dismissed. What the claim actually is, where it came from, what supports it, what contradicts it, and where it sits on the spectrum from documented to unfalsifiable.
Pillar 04Sightings, government investigations, the Project Blue Book era, the Nimitz Tic-Tac, the Phoenix Lights, and the post-2017 wave of disclosures. A vertical with constant new primary material.
Pillar 05Cases buried in the archaeological and historical record. Vanished colonies, lost civilizations, ancient anomalies, structures whose builders never wrote their names down. Where the evidence is older than the questions.
New cases are added regularly. Older files are revised when new documents are released or fresh evidence surfaces.
What the surviving documents prove, what was destroyed before disclosure, and what's still classified about the agency's experiments on civilians, soldiers, and prisoners from 1953 to 1973.
Nine Soviet hikers killed in the northern Urals. The 2020 official Russian study attributed the deaths to a slab avalanche; the 2021 Gaume-Puzrin paper proposed a mechanism for the injuries. Several questions remain.
The Joint Chiefs' formal proposal for false-flag attacks on US targets to manufacture justification for a Cuba invasion. Signed by Lemnitzer, rejected by Kennedy, declassified forty-seven years later.
The most-cited UFO case in history. What the original RAAF announcement said, what the 1994 USAF Project Mogul report concluded, and what's still in dispute about the recovery.
A blog publishes opinions. A desk works files. AnomalyDesk is run as a small, independent archive: every case is researched, sourced, and updated when the record changes. We cite primary documents wherever they exist and label confidence honestly — verified, claimed, unverified, disputed — so the reader is never guessing what the evidence supports.
