Official Description

This document is an FBI FD-302, a form the Federal Bureau of Investigation uses to record interviews. This FD-302 records an interview with a U.S. person regarding their first-hand account of an incident potentially involving unidentified anomalous phenomena. The subject matter described in files FBI-UAP-D009 and FBI-UAP-D010 and depicted in the video footage FBI-UAP-PR004 corresponds to reports originating from the same general area in the northeastern United States.

Key Findings

→Two luminous orbs — one yellow basketball-sized and one larger beach-ball-sized — were observed by at least two witnesses approximately 30 yards away and 20-30 feet above the ground.
→The objects moved laterally at a consistent height before one orb merged into the other and both disappeared abruptly.
→A second event weeks later involved multiple white orbs traveling from west to east at higher altitude than the initial sighting.
→A separate 1987 encounter was reported in which a red light was observed circling near power lines before hovering and landing near a power station.
→FBI agents photographed the location with the witness's permission, and those photos were attached to the interview report.

UAP Insight Analysis— AI generated, not official

This FBI FD-302 interview report documents a civilian witness account of multiple UAP encounters, including two luminous orbs (one yellow basketball-sized, one larger beach-ball-sized) observed approximately 30 yards away and 20-30 feet above the ground, which moved laterally before one merged into the other and both disappeared. A secondary sighting of multiple white orbs traveling west-to-east at higher altitude occurred weeks later, and a 1987 encounter involving a red light near a power station is also recorded. FBI agents attached photographs taken at the scene with the witness's permission.

Analyst Notes

All evidence is based solely on civilian witness testimony with no corroborating sensor data described in this document. Witness names, dates, and locations are heavily redacted, limiting independent verification. The 1987 event is a decades-old recollection. The witness self-reports a longstanding interest in UAP, which may introduce observer bias. Photos referenced as attached are not included in this document.
