Mysterious Thermal Object Spotted in Middle East

In 2024, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) received infrared video footage from a U.S. military platform in the Middle East, lasting six minutes and forty-two seconds. The recording shows an unusual thermal contrast that could indicate a physical object, though analysts cannot confirm its origin. Without additional sensor data or corroborating telemetry, AARO cannot determine whether the signature is a sensor artifact, a thermal emission, or a reflection. The phenomenon remains unexplained.
