FBI Photo B011

▮ AI SYNOPSIS · Sonnet 4.6

FBI Photo B011 is a one-page PDF released May 8, 2026, under the PURSUE Release 01 program. It documents a UAP sighting that occurred in late 2025 somewhere in the western United States. The record consists of a single still image captured by an unidentified U.S. military system and submitted by the FBI to AARO. The image is monochrome and grainy, showing a small dark circular object in the upper right quadrant of the frame against what appears to be a mountain range backdrop, with a central crosshair reticle visible. The operator was unable to positively identify the object.

Several details limit analytical value. The image was redacted before submission, no accompanying mission report was provided, and the embedded timestamp reads 12/31/99 18:11:06 — a placeholder resulting from the system clock not being set, meaning the precise date of capture is unverifiable. The sparse metadata, absent mission context, and pre-submission alterations make independent assessment of the object's nature or origin impossible from this record alone.

Redactions present in this record. Black bars protect identities of eyewitnesses, locations of facilities, or non-UAP-related sensitive material.

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 appears to show 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.
