FBI Photo A6

This is a declassified, black and white aerial photograph of a rocky, barren terrain with a small, dark, circular object located slightly left of the center frame. A reticle with tick marks and numerical indicators (including a '5') is superimposed over the image, and dark rectangular redactions obscure portions of the photograph. The image quality suggests it is an older photograph, likely from an analog capture format, with a slight atmospheric haze visible. Official description: The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of a still image derived from a U.S. government system. The date and location of the event have not been provided. The original imagery was altered with redactions before being submitted to AARO. An accompanying mission report was not provided. The operator reported that they were unable to positively identify the UAP. Narrative Description: The monochrome image displays a lightly textured background with a central crosshair reticle. A dark, circular object is positioned at the center of the reticle. This narrative description is provided for informational purposes only.
