Unresolved UAP Report, Middle East, 2013
A U.S. military infrared sensor over the Middle East captured an unusual eight-pointed star-shaped object in 2013 — and whoever filed the report left no written or verbal explanation of what they were looking at. The object moves with a visible trail before exiting frame, reappears after an apparent cut, and remains unresolved. What makes this record stand out is the silence: CENTCOM submitted the footage to AARO with zero accompanying description, leaving the video to speak entirely for itself.
The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of one minute and 46 seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2013. The reporter did not provide any oral or written description of the observation.
