Official Description
On March 6, 2026, eight members of the U.S. House of Representatives requested access to 51 potentially UAP-related records allegedly held by the Department of War and the Intelligence Community. The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) identified a collection of responsive materials held on a classified network. Many of these materials lack a substantiated chain-of-custody.
AARO assesses that this video, whose uploader-defined title is, “2 November 2020 [CALLSIGN] [CALLSIGN] Observes and tracks UAP 2 of 2,” is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the United States Central Command area of responsibility in November 2020. A user uploaded this video to a classified network in November 2020.
Video Duration: 00:04:58 Video Description: 00:00-03:21: The sensor pans to keep a low area of contrast within the center of the field-of-view. The relative intensity of the area of contrast increases throughout the video. 03:15-03:17: A second area of contrast transits the top right corner of the sensor field-of-view. 03:22-04:58: The sensor pans from the first area of contrast to the second area of contrast and pans to keep it within the field-of-view.

AARO Comment: DOW-UAP-PR077 and DOW-UAP-PR078 are not duplicates. Both videos depict highly similar subject matter, but are distinct.
Redactions have been made to protect the identity of eyewitnesses, the location of government facilities, or potentially sensitive information about military sites not related to UAP. No redactions have been made to any files released under President Trump's directive concerning information about the nature or existence of any encounter reported as a UAP or related phenomena.
