Four of the videos are marked as "featured" on the war.gov website.
The "featured" column is a new addition to the .csv for this release.

PR024 and PR030 are in this release, they are filling gaps we had in the numbering from previous releases. PR020 and PR025 are still missing, they might come out one day.

I missed this because I was only looking at videos, but that's a pdf containing one frame, I don't consider this as "released".

I'm guessing that whoever submits a UAP image/ video to AARO isn't obliged to consider the pattern of diffraction spikes that the imaging system might show. But I'm a bit disappointed that AARO doesn't comment on what are obviously diffraction spikes.

Video Description:
00:01-00:15: The sensor pans to track an area of contrast resembling a six-pointed star, keeping it generally centered within the center of the screen.

DOW-UAP-PR104, Unresolved UAP Report, Yellow Sea, 2025 https://www.dvidshub.net/video/1014101/dow-uap-pr104-unresolved-uap-report-yellow-sea-2025

The six-pointed star seems to be the focus of interest. It's a diffraction spike pattern.
If the original observer/ image analysts aren't aware of this, it poses questions about their training. If imagery like this is being submitted by other people who have access to the imagery but don't understand it, this also raises questions.

The description states that the report consisted of the image in its present state. I don't think there is more to it than what's been released.

A lot of hoopla's being made over these images of what appears to be a slender triangular-ish object Columbia captured.

But here's the thing, the mission Columbia was on (STS-80) was carrying payloads: 2 Satellites that they released, let float in orbit for a while, and then re-captured!

Photos taken from within the shuttle of a distant object when one of their objectives is to recover some satellites that they themselves deployed... hmmmm....

The fact that none of this is mentioned on any of the image's pages is great too, really keeping this gravy train going lads, good work.

Also, as relayed by one of the crew for this mission, they saw diddly squat.

I have never seen any evidence in space or on Earth of spacecraft or phenomena not explained by our routine space operations in the shuttle or Space Station programs. My crewmates and I have not seen any evidence for UFOs or spacecraft of "alien" origin or behavior. - Tom Jones

A few minutes of googling was all it took! Hey DOW, hire me!

PR102 has a few frames you can almost read :

 

[MyMatesBrainwashed]

Starting to wonder what doesn't look anamolous in infrared.

 

[Ravi]

Starting to wonder what doesn't look anamolous in infrared.

It all is insanely laughable. How can I "have an open mind" when we are fed with complete and utter nonsense videos? Ah, I suppose "the good ones are still being hidden from us!" Sigh (^3)

 

[Fritzkquzerk]

Starting to wonder what doesn't look anamolous in infrared.

That's a good point.
It's the perfect camera setting for seeing weirdness where there isn't.

They will claim this the next 79 years, it's a never ending story...
