The most mysterious Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena in the five tranches of data which were declassified over the past four months in the Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters (PURSUE) are orbs.
These orbs are glowing entities, estimated to be on the scale of meters. The encounters are diverse.
The 2nd PURSUE tranche mentions a senior intelligence officer’s 2025 account of being left “virtually speechless” after an hour-long observation of orange orbs. The 5th PURSUE tranche provides a helicopter account of an orb swarm with “a series of close UAP encounters lasting over an hour,” plus two larger ones described as “oval-shaped, orange with a white or yellow center, emitting light in all directions.” The 5th tranche also includes infrared footage of a hovering black sphere. Some orbs are consistent with earlier historical reports on Tic-Tac-shape objects. They appear cold on thermal imagery in several infrared-sensor cases despite visual or radar-apparent motion. Some orbs were moving over the Gulf of Oman with a speed in the range of Mach 0.3–1.7 (250–1,300 mph) and a Syrian case reported instant acceleration.
