Compact halo
Red, orange, amber, plasma-like, sometimes with a darker center or a bright rim.
HEDHub - Halo-Emission Dynamics Hub
A DWARF 3 network to detect Foo Fighter UFO events.
HEDHub is building an instrumented DWARF 3 station network to detect, reject, triangulate and study compact red/orange Foo Fighter-like UFO events.
Curiosity welcome. Viral clips are leads, not conclusions. Instrumented evidence first.
Visual target
The same curiosity, converted into a measurement target.
PR002 is a public example of the red/orange family: two compact sources, hover, relative motion and a documented source chain. HEDHub uses cases like this to define what stations should capture, track, reject and compare.
Community standard
UFO curiosity is welcome. Evidence makes it useful.
HEDHub needs UFO/UAP witnesses, skywatchers, researchers, skeptics and builders. The rule is simple: every lead is treated seriously, then tested against aircraft, satellites, meteors, reentries, lanterns, drones, flare, bokeh, compression artifacts and edited clips. Weak material remains useful as lead or control data.

Target phenotype
A narrow target makes the project falsifiable.
Non-ballistic motion
Hover, lateral movement, stop-and-go, direction change, tandem geometry, fade to black.
Instrument-ready
Original files, UTC timestamps, optical tracks, spectroscopy, RF/EM and triangulation.
Anchor cases
Evidence is shown with limits, not certainty.
AAltea 2015
Witness anchor. Mountain behind, horizontal path to sea, orange plasma-like orb.
- Limit
- Witness/photo anchor, not triangulated.
APR002 - Red Orb Rotation
Official visible case. Two red sources, hover, relative rotation.
- Limit
- Location redacted; dark background limits geometry.
APR003 - Orbs Over the Pond
Official visible case. Plasma-like sphere, hover, form and luminosity changes.
- Limit
- Public copy cropped for privacy.
APR004 - Northeastern Orb Sighting
Official visible case. Red sphere, white plasma-like center, low altitude, tandem/fusion.
- Limit
- No public triangulation; exact location redacted.
Working hypothesis
The red light may be the atmosphere reacting.
One working model is that the visible orb is not the whole object. It may be a dark or low-signature core surrounded by an excited atmospheric halo. When the system crosses a field or energy threshold, air, humidity, aerosols or plasma-like emissions become visible in red/orange bands.

Rejection pipeline
A useful network must be able to say no.

Map the question before claiming an answer.
The catalog separates core visible cases, sensor support, historical analogs and weak controls. Coordinates are approximate when sources are historical or redacted.

Run a station, review evidence, or build the software.
HEDNet turns isolated Foo Fighter UFO sightings into structured event packages. We need DWARF 3 station operators, reviewers, developers, optics people, radio/SDR people and scientists willing to reject weak evidence.
