Twin Red Orbs Merge Over Northeastern Backyard

FBI-UAP-PR004, “Northeastern Orb Sighting,” 2025

An FBI UAP file documenting a July 2025 eyewitness sighting of two red sphere orbs in a backyard in the northeastern United States, with accompanying iPhone video footage.

Brief

In July 2025, around 2100 local time, an eyewitness in the northeastern United States observed an intense bright light hovering about 25 feet off the ground roughly 90 feet away in their backyard. The witness and their spouse described it as a "brilliant red sphere" about one meter in diameter with a white plasma "sun" at its center about the size of a basketball, after which a second identical orb appeared above the first. The witness recorded the orbs on an iPhone 14 Pro Max as they moved westward above a tree line in silent, smooth, tandem motion before appearing to merge and disappearing at an estimated 75 yards. The FBI assesses the eyewitnesses as credible, and the sighting occurred within 25 miles of three other reported orb events known to the witnesses.
