The roughly five-minute file was uploaded to a classified network in January 2021 and released through the PURSUE declassification.

The Office of the Director of National Intelligence delivered the first unclassified UAP report to Congress. Of 144 incidents reviewed, only one could be explained. It explicitly declined to rule out non-human origins.

In November 2021, around 5:00 a.m. in the northeastern United States, an eyewitness filmed a bright light near the horizon, estimated about 2,000 feet away, that resolved from a single object into multiple lights moving erratically relative to one another while drifting slowly from left to right. The witness recorded the footage on a hand-held iPhone 12 Pro in a sparsely populated, familiar location, and the FBI assessed the reporter as highly credible.

In March 2026, members of Congress requested access to 51 potentially UAP-related records, and AARO located responsive materials on a classified network, many lacking a verified chain of custody. AARO assessed that this 20-second video, titled by its uploader "4 UAP Formation Iran 26 Aug 2022 over water," likely came from an infrared sensor on a U.S. military platform in the CENTCOM area in 2022.

This is an FBI 302 interview with a senior U.S. intelligence official describing a first-hand UAP encounter at a U.S. military facility. The official said that, during a helicopter search of an area where orbs had previously been seen, the team found a "super-hot" orb hovering above the ground that then traveled about 20 miles faster than the pursuing helicopter, along with a swarm of lights moving in all directions. Over the following half hour, additional orbs were seen repeatedly flaring up and down across the area.

This document is a first-hand account written by a senior, currently serving U.S. intelligence official who took part in a late-2025 investigation of unusual noises and UAP sightings near a sensitive U.S. military facility. From a helicopter, the official described encountering glowing orbs at both close and far range, including a low, fast-moving object that appeared to split in two and accelerate away in opposite directions. The account is accompanied by infrared imagery taken from the ground during the same exercise.

In July 2025, an eyewitness in the northeastern United States observed an intense light hovering about 25 feet above the ground in their backyard, later joined by a spouse who described it as a brilliant red sphere about one meter across with a white plasma core. Two identical orbs then rose, moved silently westward in tandem above a tree line, and appeared to merge before vanishing. The eyewitness recorded the event on an iPhone, and the location was within 25 miles of other documented orb sightings.

Infrared imagery released in the first PURSUE tranche, recording an unidentified object over the western US. Among the original records in the government's first systematic disclosure.
