Apparently investigating a metallic object caught on CCTV hovering over the Iraqi city of Mosul are the US military and intelligence community.
On Tuesday’s premiere episode of the new podcast “Weaponized,” UFO researcher Jeremy Kenyon Lockyer Corbell and journalist George Knapp presented the image, which is a still from a four-second video clip captured on April 16, 2016, by a reconnaissance aircraft in northern Iraq.
The object, known as the Mosul orb, was captured on camera by both a military organization and an intelligence agency, said Corbell. It was given the name of the Iraqi city where it was discovered originally.
The metallic-colored sphere appeared to follow the spy plane in the video, without lowering its height, claims Corbell.
The “Weaponized” podcasters who acquired the image are documentary filmmaker Jeremy Kenyon Lockyer Corbell and investigative journalist George Knapp.

This is categorized as a UFO by our intelligence community. This is an example of a UFO that our armed forces and intelligence agencies are now looking into. It’s just one of many photographs,” Corbell remarked.
The Department of Defense did not immediately react to a request for comment regarding the veracity of the picture given by “Weaponized.”
The recently established All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO, at the Pentagon has investigated hundreds of reports of unidentified flying objects over the period of many months, according to research published earlier this month.
The photograph, according to the podcasters, is a part of the Pentagon’s continuing inquiry into a large number of “unidentified aerial phenomena,” or UAP.
366 recent UFO encounters reported by the military were evaluated by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. 26 were found to be drones, 163 were “balloon or balloon-like things,” and six were “attributed to debris” in the air.
The remaining 171 “unremarkable” reports that “demonstrated strange flight characteristics or performance capabilities” will still be under investigation.
The director of AARO, Sean Kirkpatrick, had remarked that his office had obtained “many hundreds” of reports.
The Pentagon is still investigating UAP reports, but it has not been possible to prove the existence of extraterrestrial life.
