Detail
This document is a Mission Report (MISREP), a standardized form the U.S. military uses to record the circumstances of its operations. Such reports are commonly used by the armed services to relay Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) observations to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), with the report's general-text (GENTEXT) section carrying qualitative, contextual detail beyond the numerical data found elsewhere.
The report states that a U.S. military operator observed what was described as a "line of dots followed by a trailing dot." All descriptive language reflects the observer's subjective impression at the time and should not be read as a definitive determination of any object's features or performance.
The record was released to the public through the PURSUE declassification by the Department of War.
