FBI FD-302 form documenting an interview conducted by FBI agents with a U.S. person regarding a firsthand UAP sighting in the northeastern United States in 2025. The witness reported arriving home around 9:15 PM and observing two luminous orbs — one approximately basketball-sized and yellow, one beach-ball-sized — hovering 20–30 feet above ground roughly 30 yards away, behind a tree line. A second person came outside and also observed the objects. The orbs moved laterally, passed behind a neighbor's house, and one was observed merging into the other before disappearing. The witness also reported a subsequent sighting of multiple white orbs traveling west to east at higher altitude, and referenced a separate 1987 incident involving a red light near power lines.
All names, dates, and identifying details are redacted throughout. The document notes that this record's subject matter corresponds to related files FBI-UAP-D009 and video footage FBI-UAP-PR004, suggesting a cluster of reports from the same geographic area. Agents photographed the scene; those images are referenced as attached but not included in this release. The 1987 account adds a historical dimension but is uncorroborated within this document.
