The Department of War lists the agency as NASA and the incident location as Houston, Texas; no incident date is given.[^1][^2]\n\n<Video url=\"https://d34w7g4gy10iej.cloudfront.net/video/2606/DOD_111764796/DOD_111764796.mp4\" controls />\n\n## A Scientific Debriefing Among Investigators\n\nThe release description states that this debriefing includes presentations from principal investigators of various Apollo experiments, who describe preliminary results of their work to educate the Apollo crews about what they obtained from Apollo 16 in order to help prepare for Apollo 17. The record is therefore an internal scientific debriefing focused on experiment results, not a UAP investigation.\n\n## The Unreported Flash\n\nAccording to the release description, the investigators also describe anomalies, such as a \"flash\" that was observed and had not yet been reported. The release specifies that the flash is mentioned beginning at 25:15 in the recording. The reference is brief and presented in the context of preliminary experimental results rather than as a dedicated anomaly inquiry. DVIDS hosts the matching public audio entry and a direct MP4 rendition of the recording.[^3][^4]\n\n## What The Record Supports\n\nNASA-UAP-D024 is a primary audio record of how an unreported \"flash\" surfaced within a routine Apollo 16 scientific debriefing. It does not identify or explain the flash; the mention is a passing reference amid experiment reporting, with no imagery, measurement, location detail, or analytical determination establishing what was observed.[^1]\n\n## References\n\n[^1]: [Department of War PURSUE page](https://www.war.gov/UFO/#release)\n\n[^2]: [Department of War PURSUE data file (uap-data.csv)](https://www.war.gov/Portals/1/Interactive/2026/UFO/uap-data.csv)\n\n\n[^3]: [NASA-UAP-D024, Apollo 16 Scientific Debriefing DVIDS page](https://www.dvidshub.net/video/1010319/nasa-uap-d024-apollo-16-scientific-debriefing)\n\n[^4]: [NASA-UAP-D024, Apollo 16 Scientific Debriefing MP4](https://d34w7g4gy10iej.cloudfront.net/video/2606/DOD_111764796/DOD_111764796.mp4)","readingTime":"2 min read"},"relatedRecords":[],"citation":{"canonicalUrl":"https://disclosdex.com/documents/2026-pursue-release-03-070-nasa-uap-d024-apollo-16-scientific-debriefing","title":"NASA-UAP-D024 Apollo 16 Scientific Debriefing","publisher":"Disclosdex","retrievedFrom":"https://disclosdex.com/api/v1/documents/2026-pursue-release-03-070-nasa-uap-d024-apollo-16-scientific-debriefing","license":"CC-BY-4.0"}}
