FBI Photo B024

FBI Photo B024 is a PDF released on May 8, 2026, under the PURSUE Release 01 program. It contains a single still image captured by a U.S. military system in late 2025 over the western United States and submitted by the FBI to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO). The monochrome image shows a grainy frame with a central crosshair reticle and one dark, irregular-shaped object positioned just above the reticle's center. The operator was unable to positively identify the object. No accompanying mission report was provided.

The record is notable for several gaps: the image was redacted before submission to AARO, the system clock was not properly set (displaying 12/31/99 18:19:40), and no mission report accompanies it, limiting any contextual analysis. The absence of metadata and supporting documentation makes independent verification difficult. The FBI's role as submitting agency, rather than the originating military unit, adds an additional layer of remove from the primary source.
