The James M. Inhofe National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023 codifies the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), absorbing the predecessor Airborne Object Identification and Management Synchronization Group and giving it statutory authority and a public reporting mandate.
A 20-second infrared sensor recording from a U.S. military platform over CENTCOM waters near Iran, August 26, 2022, showing four areas of contrast moving together — and then a fifth object entering the frame from the top-left. The opening video of the new PR050-PR099 series released in PURSUE Release 02.
The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of ten seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S
The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of fourteen seconds of video footage from an infrared (left) and electro-optical (right) sensor aboard a U.S
The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of a still image derived from a U.S. military system in 2022. The original reporter digitally altered the imagery by adding a red line encircling an area of interest before submitting it to AARO. An accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D12, described the UAP as moving from north to northeast. The operator reported that they were unable t
The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of ten seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2022. An accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D18, described the UAP as "flying west to east." Video Description: The video depicts an area of contrast moving from the bottom left to the top right of the sensor field-of-view. At approximately six second
The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of 14 seconds of video footage from an infrared (left) and electro-optical (right) sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2022. An accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D16, described the UAP as “moving from north to south.” Video Description: At the five second mark, the video depicts an object moving from right to left across the to
The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of ten seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2022. An accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D14, described the UAP as a “probable SU-27/35." Video Description: The video depicts two areas of contrast moving together near the center of the field-of-view throughout the runtime. This video des
The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of five seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2022. An accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D10, described the observation as a “possible missile” moving across the field-of-view. The report also described four other objects not depicted in the video as “possible birds.” Video Description: At the
A U.S. military operator reported observing one UAP flying north to northeast. The observer reported following the UAP for as long as possible but was unable to positively identify it. All descriptive and estimative language contained in this report reflects the reporter’s subjective interpretation at the time of the event. Such characterizations should not be interpreted as a conclusive indication of the presence or absence of any intrinsic object features or performance characteristics.
The House Intelligence Subcommittee on Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence, and Counterproliferation holds the first open congressional hearing on UAP in fifty-three years. Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence Ronald Moultrie and Deputy Director of Naval Intelligence Scott Bray testify.
A sensor video from a U.S. Navy platform in March 2022 showing multiple spherical objects moving in and out of the water in close proximity to a surfaced U.S. submarine — the cleanest transmedium/USO (Unidentified Submerged Object) footage AARO has released to date, and the iconic image of PURSUE Release 02.
U.S. military service members near Colorado Springs reported a motionless, silent, matte-white 'bean-shaped' object whose surface was covered in intersecting ridges forming an abstract polygon pattern. PURSUE Release 03 declassifies the FBI's witness interviews, a digital rendering, and an Intelligence Community partner's analysis assessing — with low confidence — that the phenomenon may have been sunlight backscattering from snow-covered mountains. The case remains unresolved as of June 2026.
