First-hand account written by a currently serving (May 2026) senior U.S. intelligence official who was part of a team investigating reports of unusual noises and UAP sightings at a sensitive U.S. military facility in late 2025. As a helicopter passenger, the official encountered unidentified "glowing orbs" at close range and at a distance, observed an apparent high-speed object moving low to the ground that split in two and accelerated in different directions, and witnessed numerous higher-altitude orbs in close proximity to the helicopter. Accompanied by infrared imagery from ground-based federal officials (originally released May 8, 2026). A typographic error ("map-of-the-earth" vs. "nap-of-the-earth") was corrected in the May 26 reissue.
