Unresolved UAP Report, Colorado Springs, 2022
An FBI special agent's formal case memo documents a witness interview about a UAP sighting near Colorado Springs — unusual not just for its subject matter, but for its stated purpose: the agents were collecting the firsthand account specifically to produce a digital artistic reconstruction of what the witness saw. The FD-1057 format means this was logged as legitimate investigative activity, not a tip sheet or correspondence. That detail — the Bureau commissioning visual art to render an unexplained aerial incident — makes this one of the stranger procedural artifacts in the UAP records landscape.
This document is an FBI FD-1057, a form the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) uses to record investigative activity.
