Probed Assessment
Key takeaways
- The witness used a thermal optical device to look toward an azimuth of about 58 degrees.
- A second object reportedly appeared to the right of the first and was recorded in additional photographs or video.
- The witness described the two objects as moving together at the same speed.
Why it matters
This 2-page official record adds page-located primary-source material to the public history represented in Release 05. Its value lies in what the document records, not in independent confirmation of every reported event or estimate.
Corroboration
The assessment is grounded in the official PDF, reviewed page text, and faithful source excerpts. Statements attributed to witnesses or agencies remain source claims unless separately corroborated in the record.
Open questions
- • Which reported observations or technical estimates can be independently corroborated from contemporaneous records?
Probed separates this editorial assessment from the source claims below. It summarizes what the released artifact supports; it is not independent verification.
Official Description from War.gov
This document is an FBI FD-302, a form the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) uses to record interviews.

This FD-302 is accompanied by video footage captured during the incident, under the title FBI-UAP-PR007.
