Narrative
In 2020, a U.S. military infrared sensor captured nearly five minutes of an object that slips in and out of contrast, shifts position when imaging modes change, and refuses to behave like any conventional aircraft, drone, or known technology. Submitted by CENTCOM to AARO with no operator notes and no identification, this unresolved UAP remains one of the strangest thermal signatures released to date. submitted by /u/Riley-Stone-UAP
