Overview
- The June 2026 encounter was recorded by two FBI special agents and a third official who reported a matte‑black, delta‑wing object that climbed about 200–300 feet, hovered roughly 20 seconds in silence, then accelerated out of view.
- Government records describe the craft as roughly 9–15 feet in wingspan, 6–9 feet deep and 1–2 feet thick with no visible propulsion and a uniform infrared signature lacking a hot engine spot.
- Infrared sensors and witness accounts show no audible engine noise, no wobble in flight, and a rapid transition to high‑speed horizontal flight that observers compared to fighter‑jet speeds.
- The Pentagon released a redacted tranche of the files under the presidential unsealing process on Oct. 23, 2026, and investigators report no crash debris and an unresolved status for the case.
- UAP advisors and scientists are pressing for less‑redacted technical data and more deployed sensors so experts can test hypotheses, limit speculation, and improve public understanding.
