Official description
A local law enforcement officer submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office consisting of 15 minutes of video footage from a commercially available cellular device’s rear-facing camera in October 2023. The reporting officer described the phenomenon as “silent” and as featuring “red, blue, and green flashing lights.”
✦ AI visual analysis
Vertical smartphone video of a night sky, out of focus, with overhead power lines crossing the frame. One or two bright points of light are visible above the lines, one noticeably brighter with a faint greenish or bluish tinge in some frames, the other fainter and steadier in position. Below the lines, the bottom of the frame is digitally blurred per AARO's stated privacy redaction, showing only an indistinct pale rooftop or terrain silhouette with a warm orange glow at one edge. The composition and light positions remain largely static across the sampled frames, consistent with the camera holding on the light source for an extended period.

Official video description
AARO digitally altered this footage by blurring the bottom half to obscure information whose release could be reasonably expected to affect the privacy or other protected interest of a U.S. person or commercial entity. 00:00-15:00: The camera focuses on an apparent light source for the duration of the video, keeping it generally centered within the frame.
AARO comment
Cellular devices of the type used to capture this footage employ autofocus and other automated image-processing functions that may distort the apparent morphological and kinematic characteristics of distant subjects, particularly at high magnification.
