Show HN: Doomscroll the Goverment's UFO Files as One Gigantic Microfilm
A web application called hypergrid.systems has made the US government's UFO files available in a unique format, allowing users to 'doomscroll' through the documents as if they were a single, gigantic microfilm reel. The files, which total over 1,000 pages, were previously released in 2021 as part of a Freedom of Information Act request. The application's creator has made the files accessible in a scrolling format, allowing users to easily navigate through the documents. This format is reminiscent of old microfilm readers.
This development is relevant to tech enthusiasts and researchers interested in the intersection of technology and government transparency.
