DOW-UAP-PR061, "Spherical UAP [CALLSIGN] 2021/04/12 vid 0"
Key moments
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 “Spherical UAP [CALLSIGN] 2021/04/12 vid 0,” is likely derived from a full-motion video camera and an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the United States Central Command area of responsibility in 2021. A user uploaded this video to a classified network in June 2024. Video Duration: 00:04:46
✦ AI visual analysis
Color daylight sensor footage showing an aerial top-down view of arid, ridged desert terrain in tan and beige tones, with a hazy blue-grey patch that may be water, shadow, or haze. A teal-colored HUD crosshair with corner brackets and an 'N' north indicator is centered on the frame, but no discrete spherical object is clearly resolved in these frames.
