Unresolved UAP Report, Western United States, 2020
A U.S. Northern Command infrared sensor locks onto an unidentified object over the Western United States, auto-tracking it across the frame before it exits the field of view — unresolved. What makes this entry notable is precisely what's missing: after 136 seconds of footage and a formal AARO submission, no explanation was reached, leaving it in the official "unresolved" category alongside a growing body of military sensor cases that have cleared preliminary review without a mundane match.
The United States Northern Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of 2 minutes and 16 seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2020.
