U.S. Northern Command area: Infrared sensor video of an area of contrast, 2019
In December 2019, according to the uploader-defined title, an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in the U.S. Northern Command area of responsibility tracked an area of contrast on the U.S. East Coast for about 23 seconds while switching contrast modes.
Background
AARO's official description states that this 34-second video, uploader-titled 'UAP from Dec 2019 (East Coast)', is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the U.S. Northern Command area of responsibility in 2019; a user uploaded it to a classified network in September 2020, and AARO notes that many of these materials lack a substantiated chain of custody. Per the timestamped description, the sensor pans to track an area of contrast at 00:00–00:02, switches contrast modes while tracking it at 00:03–00:21, pans again at 00:22–00:23, and the remainder has no content. The month and region come from the uploader-defined title, the location is otherwise undisclosed, and AARO states that the description reflects no analytical judgment about the event's validity, nature or significance. The video was released following a 6 March 2026 request by eight members of the House of Representatives for 51 potentially UAP-related records. The details are taken from the records released by the U.S. Department of War (record code DOW-UAP-PR086) and do not represent an independent determination by From Beyond Space.
