Official description

DOW-UAP-PR48: short infrared video documenting a separate 2024 INDOPACOM encounter from the Japan football-shape file.

Editor's context

Cluster pattern in the INDOPACOM 2024 catalog suggests the football-shape morphology may not be unique to a single observation. Cross-referencing across these cases is part of the ongoing analytical work the PURSUE release enables.

In the margins

Transcribed redactions, stamps, and handwritten markings, the paratext of the file. Often the most human part of a declassified document, and worth reading on its own.

  • Stampp. DVIDS metadata
    U.S. INDO-PACIFIC COMMAND, DOW-UAP-PR48
  • Annotation
    Pairs with PR46 (football-shape) and PR47 in the 2023-2024 INDOPACOM cluster. The recurrence of object morphology across this cluster is the file's primary analytical interest.
