FBI-UAP-PR003, “Orbs Over the Pond,” 2024

Official Conclusion

Unresolved; assessed as genuine UAP event by FBI with no mundane explanation offered

Official Description

"In October 2024, at approximately 1851 local time in the northeastern United States, an eyewitness observed a light source below the horizon, hovering above a pond at an estimated distance of 2,700 feet. The luminous object resembled a “plasma-like sphere” intermittently changing shape and luminosity. At times, the primary light source appeared to separate into smaller luminous points. A luminous point below the primary source hovered just above the water and did not appear consistent with a surface reflection. The object remained generally stationary for approximately 45 minutes before disappearing. The eyewitness did not hear any sound from the objects. This video was captured by a private citizen on an iPhone and subsequently analyzed and authenticated by the U.S. Government. To protect the individual’s privacy, the footage has been cropped. Apart from this privacy-protective measure, no edits, enhancements, or alterations have been made to the visual content. The description above is derived from statements provided to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) by an eyewitness to the event. The FBI assesses the individual who reported this event as highly credible. The subject matter described in files FBI-UAP-D004 through FBI-UAP-D008 and depicted in the video footage FBI-UAP-PR001 through FBI-UAP-PR003 corresponds to reports originating from the same general area in the northeastern United States.

Key Findings

• →A luminous 'plasma-like sphere' was observed hovering above a pond at approximately 1851 local time in October 2024, remaining generally stationary for approximately 45 minutes before disappearing.
• →The object intermittently changed shape and luminosity, and at times the primary light source appeared to separate into smaller luminous points.
• →A secondary luminous point was observed hovering just above the water's surface beneath the primary source, assessed as inconsistent with a surface reflection.
• →The eyewitness reported no sound from the objects during the entire observation period.
• →The FBI assessed the reporting individual as highly credible, and U.S. Government analysis authenticated the iPhone footage; this event is linked to a cluster of related reports in the same northeastern U.S. region documented in FBI-UAP-D004 through FBI-UAP-D008 and video files FBI-UAP-PR001 through FBI-UAP-PR003.
