JAPAN · EAST CHINA SEA [DOW · INDOPACOM · IR]
WATCH IN UMBRA: all six clips, native playback
THREE AREAS, FIXED POSITIONS
DOW-UAP-PR047 (Japan, 2023, 1 minute 59 seconds) is from the first release. The sensor tracks three distinct areas of contrast for the whole clip, holding them generally in the center of the frame, and AARO notes that they "appear to maintain a fixed position and orientation relative to one another." The reporter gave no description. The description does not say whether these are three objects, one object seen as several marks, or an effect of the sensor.
THE 2024 TRACK
DOW-UAP-PR048 (INDOPACOM, 2024, 1 minute 39 seconds), also from the first release, has the sensor tracking one area of contrast in the center of the frame for the whole clip. The reporter provided no description, and AARO gives no more precise location than the command.
THE YELLOW SEA AND EAST CHINA SEA CLIPS
DOW-UAP-PR057a and PR057b are two files with identical descriptions, from above the Yellow Sea in January 2023, 1 minute 10 seconds each: an area of contrast crosses at 0:07, the sensor pans and cycles zoom levels, one enters at 0:21 and becomes indistinguishable from the background, the sensor tracks one left to right from 0:35 to 0:52, and another crosses the bottom third at 0:53. The uploaders gave them different titles, one reading "Spherical UAP in clouds" and one "Observes UAP in East China Sea 05 JAN 2023." DOW-UAP-PR075 (9 June 2021, 23 seconds, above the East China Sea) tracks one area of contrast and loses sight of it at 0:18.
THE ENHANCED TEN-MINUTE CLIP
DOW-UAP-PR058 is 10 minutes 48 seconds, digitally altered before upload and presented as received. It is built from three versions of the same recording, introduced by black screens: an 8x speed version "stabilized and enhanced," a 5-minute version at original speed "stabilized, sharpened, contrast enhanced," and a version labelled the 5-minute original clip. The first black screen refers to "possible changes of shape," which is the uploader's reading, not AARO's.
WHERE IT SITS IN THE RECORD
PR047 and PR048 are in Release 01 (May 8, 2026), PR057a, PR057b, PR058 and PR075 in Release 02 (May 22, 2026). The same command's six 2023 clips from Release 06 and its football-shaped East China Sea clip are on the Yellow Sea and East China Sea page.
What is the three-object UAP video near Japan?
DOW-UAP-PR047, a 1 minute 59 second infrared clip from 2023. AARO says the sensor tracks three distinct areas of contrast that appear to keep a fixed position and orientation relative to one another.
Is the 10-minute INDOPACOM video edited?
Yes. AARO says DOW-UAP-PR058 was digitally altered before upload. It combines an 8x enhanced version, a 5-minute enhanced version and the original clip, each introduced by a black screen.
Why are two Yellow Sea files identical?
PR057a and PR057b have identical AARO descriptions, so they appear to be the same recording uploaded under two titles.
Which command recorded these clips?
U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, according to the record, for the clips where AARO names a command.
Where can I watch all six clips?
Umbra, a free iOS reader of the public PURSUE record, plays every clip natively with AARO's description and source markings.
