The official description

The Department of the Army submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of one minute and 49 seconds of video from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2026. Video Description: 00:00-00:08: The sensor tracks an initial area of interest. 00:09-00:16: The sensor disengages from its previous area of focus and pans from right to left to track two areas of contrast, narrowing the field-of-view to zoom in while panning to maintain the objects' positions generally within the center of the frame. 00:17-01:03: The sensor widens its field-of-view to zoom out, keeping the areas of contrast generally centered within the display.
