Dark Fires covers UFO/UAP reporting, public records, and research into life beyond Earth. These standards guide the work published here.
Evidence before certainty
We distinguish facts supported by records from witness accounts, allegations, hypotheses, and opinion. A claim reported by a source is attributed to that source. Unidentified does not mean extraterrestrial.
Sourcing and original work
We link to original reporting and, where available, primary documents. Briefs summarize material in our own words and add context. Readers should consult linked sources for the full report. RSS imports are research leads held as drafts; they require review before publication.
AI assistance
AI tools have assisted with site setup, research, and drafting. That assistance does not independently verify a claim. Source links and clear attribution allow readers to examine the evidence themselves.
Corrections and updates
If you find an error, email admin@darkfires.org with the article URL and supporting information. Material corrections should be noted in the affected article so readers can understand what changed.
Commercial relationships
Paid placements and affiliate relationships should be identified where readers encounter them. Payment does not establish the truth of a UFO claim. See our advertising and affiliate disclosure.
