FBI

The FBI turns up again and again in the archive's case files. It interviews witnesses, checks objects and keeps its own records. In 1947 its agents questioned A.C. Urie's family at Snake River Canyon and called Urie completely sincere. That same year they inspected the Twin Falls saucer hoax disc. April 1964, Socorro. FBI agent D. Arthur Byrnes Jr. reached the Lonnie Zamora landing site and reported four depressions in the ground. Decades later the bureau took the lead on the 2024 drone wave. In May 2026 an FBI 302 describing glowing orbs around a helicopter appeared in the PURSUE release.
