Under the PURSUE policy framework, the Department of Defense has disclosed a fresh Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) video, labeled PR056. This footage depicts a glowing, pulsating sphere hovering or moving slowly above a water body, captured by an unspecified military platform. The video’s audio contains a callsign, but neither the platform’s identity nor the location is revealed.
The video’s sensor data suggests the object maintained a steady altitude and displayed no traditional flight characteristics, such as wings or propulsion indicators. The Department of Defense has yet to identify the object or provide an explanation for its actions.
The report is silent on whether the object posed a threat or was monitored by further sensors. The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), operating under the Office of the Secretary of Defense, coordinates UAP investigations across the Department of Defense. AARO was established to analyze such incidents and submit regular reports to Congress.
The PURSUE policy, enacted in 2024, requires prioritizing the declassification of UAP records that do not jeopardize national security. The video was recorded in an unnamed maritime setting, with the filename suggesting the object was spherical and pulsating, and a callsign could be heard in the background.
The metadata implies the sensor operated in an infrared or electro-optical mode, but the distance between the object and the sensor remains undisclosed. The Department of Defense has not shared the complete metadata or the original sensor logs. This is not the first release under PURSUE; earlier disclosures have featured videos of triangular and disc-shaped objects, as well as incidents involving military aircraft. Each disclosure is accompanied by a brief description, but the Department of Defense refrains from speculating on the objects’ nature.
The report does not confirm whether the object in PR056 was recognized as a drone, balloon, or other known platform. Moving forward, AARO can request additional data from the unit operating the sensor, question the operators, and examine the raw footage for signs of tampering or natural phenomena.
AARO may also compare the incident with other UAP reports from the same area and time period. AARO aims to release a comprehensive report on historical UAP cases by year’s end, though the deadline may adjust based on record availability. The release of PR056 adds to the expanding collection of UAP data accessible to the public and researchers.
While the Department of Defense has not drawn any conclusions, the disclosure underscores the PURSUE framework’s commitment to transparency.
