FBI-UAP-PR003, “Orbs Over the Pond,” 2024
▮ AI SYNOPSIS · Sonnet 4.6
FBI-UAP-PR003 is a video record released June 12, 2026, documenting an incident from October 2024 at approximately 1851 local time in the northeastern United States. A private citizen reported observing a plasma-like luminous sphere hovering above a pond at an estimated distance of 2,700 feet, below the horizon line. The object intermittently changed shape and luminosity, at times appearing to separate into multiple smaller light sources. A secondary luminous point hovered just above the water surface and was assessed as distinct from a reflection. The object remained stationary for roughly 45 minutes with no audible sound before disappearing. The footage was captured on an iPhone, subsequently submitted to the FBI, and authenticated by the U.S. Government. It has been cropped to protect witness privacy but is otherwise unaltered.
The FBI assessed the reporting witness as highly credible. This record is explicitly linked to a cluster of related documents — FBI-UAP-D004 through D008 — and two additional video records (FBI-UAP-PR001, PR002), all originating from the same general northeastern U.S. area, suggesting a pattern of concentrated UAP activity in one region. The identity of the witness and precise location remain undisclosed.
▮ TOP WORDS IN THIS DOCUMENT
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.
