SkyLens by YantraAI: A Hub for Real-Time Orbital Tracking and Declassified UAP Intelligence

SkyLens, developed by YantraAI, serves as a comprehensive, independent editorial portal that merges live space telemetry with a curated archive of declassified Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) documentation. The platform provides continuous updates to help users guess track what is moving across the celestial sphere.


🛸 The Declassified UAP Archive

SkyLens aggregates official records from the U.S. Department of War’s PURSUE program, providing necessary editorial context to raw government data.

The PURSUE Release Timeline

The archive currently hosts between 334 and 375 records, distributed across several key waves:

ReleaseDateFile CountKey Highlights
Release 01May 8, 2026162Initial bulk data dump
Release 02May 22, 202664Western US Event 2023 (AARO case)
Release 04July 10, 202640NASA STS-80 (1996), 1949 Los Alamos "green fireballs," Project Sign (1948)
Release 05Aug 7, 202641Navy videos, renderings, and intelligence reports

Notable Evidence & Case Files

The most recent batch (Release 05) includes 16 Navy videos and various renderings spanning from 1947 to 2026. Key highlights include:

  • Maritime Encounters: A 2021 series from the Gulf of Oman (6 clips + intel report) and a 2019 Pacific Ocean series (5 clips).
  • Triangular Craft: Digital renderings and FBI FD-302 witness testimonies regarding sightings in Afghanistan (2002) and Colorado Springs (2023).
  • Cold War & Early Records: A 1965 CIA report on a Puerto Rican object, 1963 State Department cables regarding Bahia, Brazil, and a 1947 analysis of the Scandinavian "Ghost Rockets."

Historical Context: The archive allows users to compare modern "Tic Tac" footage from the Western US (2020) against the 2004 sensor captures from Chad Underwood's F/A-18.


🛰️ Live 3D Satellite Tracking

SkyLens transforms the CelesTrak catalog into an interactive, real-time 3D visualization of Earth's orbit.

User Capabilities:

  • Granular Filtering: Sort objects by launch operator, mission category, orbit type, or originating country.
  • Environmental Context: The globe includes dynamic Sun/night lighting to simulate actual visibility.
  • Local Search: Users can input a city or use GPS to determine exactly what is orbiting above their current location.

☄️ Asteroid Close Approaches

Utilizing live feeds from NASA's CNEOS and the JPL SBDB, SkyLens tracks Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) to enhance planetary defense awareness.

The platform renders 3D orbital paths and provides critical data points, such as:

  1. Miss Distance: The closest point of approach.
  2. Relative Velocity: How fast the object is moving relative to Earth.
  3. Hazard Status: Whether the object is flagged as "potentially hazardous."

For example, the relative distance ddd can be conceptualized as: d=(x2−x1)2+(y2−y1)2+(z2−z1)2d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2 + (z_2-z_1)^2}d=(x2​−x1​)2+(y2​−y1​)2+(z2​−z1​)2​


✍️ Editorial Deep-Dives & Research

With over 660 posts, the SkyLens blog provides a global historical record of UAPs and daily space news.

International Case Studies:

  • Oceania: Father Gill's 1959 accounts in Papua New Guinea.
  • South America: Brazil's Operação Prato.
  • Europe: France's GEIPAN records.
  • Eurasia: USSR Setka programs.
  • Military: Incursions at Malmstrom and Loring nuclear facilities and AARO institutional critiques.

Platform Feature Checklist

  • Live 3D Tracker: Real-time orbital visualization.
  • UAP Vault: 375+ military and intelligence records.
  • Asteroid Watch: Live NASA/JPL telemetry.
  • AI Briefs: Daily assessments via the Trinetra deep-analysis tool.
  • Educational Hub: Plain-English guides on orbital mechanics and sensors.
  • Visual Gallery: Curated imagery from Hubble, Webb, and "Eyes on the Solar System."

⚠️ Transparency & Data Sourcing

SkyLens Data Flow

Disclaimer:

SkyLens is an editorially independent platform. It is not affiliated with any government agency. The site provides "hedged interpretive framing" and sensor context; it does not provide scientific advisories or verified government reporting.

Data Provenance:

  • Satellites: CelesTrak
  • Asteroids: NASA/JPL
  • UAP Records: war.gov, DVIDS, AARO, and FBI

Technical Implementation Example

The platform processes satellite data in a structured format similar to this:

{
  "object": "ISS",
  "catalog": "CelesTrak",
  "status": "Active",
  "coordinates": {
    "lat": 51.5074,
    "lon": 0.1278,
    "alt": 408
  }
}
