The Trump administration on Friday released its fourth batch of declassified unidentified anomalous phenomena records containing sensor videos and reports, Fox News reported. The materials include an 18-second infrared video from U.S. Indo-Pacific Command showing an object described as resembling a six-pointed star over the Yellow Sea on January 1, 2025.
Additional files contain a newly declassified Department of Energy report on a 2015 unidentified object over the Pantex Plant near Amarillo, Texas. The plant serves as the nation's primary facility for assembling, maintaining and dismantling nuclear weapons. The release also features a 1-minute, 46-second infrared video from U.S.
Indo-Pacific Command in 2024 that tracks an elongated area of contrast. A Navy Range Fouler Debrief describes a military operator observing a quite small metallic object with a reflective underside. Further items include a screenshot from a July 2025 UAP sighting in the northeastern United States and an artist's rendering of a 2023 sighting of orbs launching other orbs near a national security site in the western United States.
Additional infrared videos came from U.S. Central Command, the Air Force and Indo-Pacific Command. One 2024 video shows an elongated area of contrast that later resembles a line of multiple bright points.
A 2023 video captures two areas of contrast crossing the sensor's field of view in opposite directions. A 2019 Air Force video shows apparent flickering that AARO attributed to the sensor's automatic contrast adjustments. Congress established AARO in 2022 to investigate reports of unidentified objects across air, sea, space and other domains.
