Red, orange, amber, plasma-like, sometimes with a darker center or a bright rim.
HEDHub - Halo-Emission Dynamics Hub
A DWARF 3 network for real UFO/UAP evidence.
HEDHub is building an instrumented DWARF 3 station network to capture original files, reject false positives, triangulate events and study compact red/orange Foo Fighter-like UFO/UAP evidence.
Curiosity welcome. Viral clips are leads, not conclusions. Instrumented evidence first.
Verified DVIDS / AARO / FBI source
The clearest public red-orb encounter.
This official DVIDS/AARO/FBI release shows the low-altitude red-orb profile that defines the first HEDHub capture target: compact red light, trees for scale, tandem behavior and a source chain strong enough for serious analysis.
- Official source: DVIDS / AARO / FBI public release.
- Foo Fighter phenotype: bright red sphere, white plasma-like center, low altitude, tandem/fusion behavior.
- HEDHub use: verified anchor case for synchronized DWARF 3 capture, false-positive rejection and triangulation.
Origin story
HEDHub started with a memory.
In 2015, Alberto M. Rubio saw a low, silent, orange plasma-like sphere from a terrace in Altea, Spain, moving horizontally in front of a mountain toward the sea. For years there was no category for it. In June 2026, the official PR004 video appeared: a red sphere with a plasma-like center, low, silent, moving smoothly with another sphere. It did not just look similar. It was recognizable.
HEDHub grew from that recognition into a method: preserve original files, challenge every explanation, reject false positives, use DWARF 3 stations, and turn UFO curiosity into measurable evidence.
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. Rejected material becomes control data; verified Foo Fighter phenotype records become evidence anchors.

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.

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.

Verified sightings map
Map the verified Foo Fighter phenotype.
The public catalog keeps verified sources visible and filters for the real Foo Fighter phenotype: compact red/orange luminous objects, shield/torch analogs, official sensor cases and non-ballistic behavior. Balloons, fireworks, meteors, aircraft, lanterns and lens artifacts are rejected before they can define the target.

HEDNet station network
DWARF 3 stations are the sky sentinels. HEDHub is the shared brain.
HEDNet is a single open-source software layer connected to distributed DWARF 3 stations. Each station watches the sky, preserves original evidence and sends structured events to central compute for false-positive rejection, deeper analysis and multi-station comparison.

Join
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.
