This document is a Mission Report (MISREP), a standardized reporting form the U.S. Military uses to record the circumstances surrounding its operations. U.S. military services often use MISREPs to report Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) to AARO. The GENTEXT, or “general text” section of these reports often contains important qualitative, contextual information, distinguishing it from the more quantitative, or numerical, data found elsewhere in the report. A U.S. military operator reported observing one UAP move from north to south, with a total duration of under one minute. All descriptive and estimative language contained in this report reflects the reporter’s subjective interpretation at the time of the event. Such characterizations should not be interpreted as a conclusive indication of the presence or absence of any intrinsic object features or performance characteristics.
Scientific validation axis from the AATIP framework. Checks whether the record references characteristics that would constitute evidence of anomalous technology.
Hovering or lift without conventional means
Acceleration defying known physics
High speed without expected physical effects
Evading or confounding sensor systems
The report states 'UAP Signatures: No' (Page 7). This implies the object did not exhibit expected sensor signatures, which is characteristic of low observability.
Transitioning between air, water, or space
Physiological effects on witnesses or organisms
