DOW-UAP-PR056 is a 3-minute, 32-second video released on 2026-05-22 under the Department of War's PURSUE Release 01 program, responsive to a March 6, 2026 congressional request by eight House members for access to 51 potentially UAP-related records. AARO assesses the footage is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform. The video, uploaded to a classified network in June 2024 under the title "Spherical UAP pulsing over water [CALLSIGN]," shows an area of contrast centered in the frame throughout its duration, with a brief contrast-mode switch between 00:48 and 00:52 before returning to the original mode.
Several factors limit analytical value. The video was digitally altered prior to upload, the callsign in the title is redacted, and AARO notes the record lacks a substantiated chain-of-custody. No metadata, platform identification, geographic location, or date of original capture is confirmed. AARO explicitly declines to characterize the object, event validity, or significance, and the document carries no OCR-extractable text.
