FBI-UAP-D005, FD-1057-04, Northeastern United States, 2024
This FBI FD-1057 records an October 2024 interview with a U.S. person who described repeated UAP light sightings in the northeastern United States, including a 2021 triangular light pattern, a 2022 recorded sighting, later video corruption, and attempts to check sightings against ADS-B aircraft data.
The interview subject told the FBI the first sighting occurred in 2021, when a light outside a back window split into two or three lights and formed a triangular pattern for about ten minutes. The subject also played a previously provided 2022 video, said the lights usually appeared at dusk or night, and reported that the lights seemed to morph and move laterally. The FD-1057 records that the subject tried to compare date, time, azimuth, and ADS-B records to test whether the sightings were aircraft.
