The United States Indo-Pacific Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of 1 minute and 46 seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2024.
Video Description:
00:01-00:12: The sensor tracks an area of contrast, keeping it generally within the center of the frame.
00:13-00:28: The sensor zooms in and tracks an elongated area of contrast, keeping it generally to the left of the center of the frame.
00:29-00:33: The sensor zooms in again. The area of contrast appears as a βlineβ of several areas of contrast moving across the sensor field-of-view from the bottom right to the top left.
00:34-01:44: The sensor pans to track the areas of contrast for approximately 1 minute. They become less distinct over time as their distance from the sensor increases.
