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.
