Summary
An infrared video about three and a half minutes long, likely from a U.S. military platform, keeps an area of contrast near the center of the frame throughout. Uploaded to a classified network in June 2024, the footage shows the sensor briefly switching contrast modes during the clip.
Detail
This Department of War record, released through the PURSUE declassification, was identified by the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) among materials requested by U.S. House members in March 2026. AARO assesses the clip likely derives from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform; no specific location or date is given. A user uploaded it to a classified network in June 2024, and many such items lack a verified chain of custody.
In the roughly three-and-a-half-minute video, digitally altered before upload, an area of contrast remains generally centered in the frame. About 48 seconds in, the sensor briefly switches contrast modes before returning to its original mode, with the contrast area staying near the center throughout. The description is provided for information only and reflects no conclusion about the event.
