Newly Released Records Reveal Drone Incursions, Including Triangular Object With Spotlight, Above U.S. Nuclear Sites
Among the most striking cases is an incident at the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station in Pennsylvania - a nuclear plant - where a triangular object appearing to carry a large spotlight was reported within the site’s airspace and perimeter for more than two hours. The material, provided by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) under the Freedom of Information Act, relates to records the NRC sent to the Pentagon’s dedicated Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena office, the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO, between 1 January 2020 and 24 November 2025. In total, 22 drone-related incidents were documented. The Susquehanna nuclear power plant accounted for eight incidents in just over a month. In contrast, the Columbia Generating Station in Washington state accounted for nine across a period of nearly three months. Taken together, those two sites made up 17 of the 22 incidents. Several incidents around Susquehanna involved multiple drones approaching from multiple directions. submitted by /u/Shiny-Tie-126 [link] [comments]
