Aguadilla UAP Video

On April 25, 2013, a U.S. Customs and Border Protection aircraft departing Aguadilla Airport in Puerto Rico captured infrared video of a small object flying at low altitude, passing through restricted airspace, appearing to enter the ocean, and then re-emerging, behavior analyzed in a 165-page report by the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies that concluded the object's performance exceeded known aerial systems.

Brief

On April 25, 2013, a U.S. Customs and Border Protection aircraft departing Aguadilla Airport in Puerto Rico captured infrared video of a small object flying at low altitude, passing through restricted airspace, appearing to enter the ocean, and then re-emerging, behavior analyzed in a 165-page report by the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies that concluded the object's performance exceeded known aerial systems. The SCU team, including professional scientists and engineers, estimated the object's speed at over 80 mph in apparent water transit and flagged an apparent split into two objects near the clip's end. AARO later assessed the objects as probable sky lanterns in a 2024 review; the SCU disputed that conclusion, citing frame-by-frame infrared analysis that ruled out lantern behavior and trajectory.
