Official Description
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of a still image derived from a U.S. military system in 2025. The original imagery was altered with redactions before being submitted to AARO. An accompanying mission report was not provided. The operator reported that they were unable to positively identify the UAP. The date in the image is incorrect due to system date/time not being set. Narrative Description: The monochrome image displays a grainy texture with a central crosshair reticle. A small, dark, circular object is visible in the upper right quadrant of the frame. The background shows an indistinct mountain range.This narrative description is provided for informational purposes only. Readers should not interpret any part of this description as reflecting an analytical judgment, investigative conclusion, or factual determination regarding the described event’s validity, nature, or significance.

The document has significant limitations: the timestamp is explicitly acknowledged as incorrect, making temporal context unreliable. No mission report was provided. Heavy redaction of overlay data fields removes operational metadata that could aid identification. The object is a single small dot with no size, speed, or behavioral data available. Single-sensor, single-frame still image with no corroborating data. The object could plausibly be sensor noise, a bird, debris, or distant aircraft given the lack of additional context.
