Summary

The three keyframes show a grayscale infrared display with a horizontal bright line and a dark star-shaped mark with radiating arms, in different positions across the frames, and black redaction boxes. Per index: 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. Per index description: This video depicts an area of contrast resembling an eight-pointed star with arms of alternating length.

Note

Black redaction boxes cover parts of the on-screen display; the keyframes alone do not show the motion described in the index. The index conflicts on status: its video title reads "Resolved as an Aircraft" while its asset name reads "Unresolved UAP Report", and the description gives no resolution.
