Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) has been reported on globally for many decades and attempts made to interpret observations. For objects other than ‘craft’ location-centric manifestations have been observed repeatedly over extended periods. These objects have been referred to as earth lights and light balls consisting of plasma, orientating themselves to each other and their surrounding environment. Temporal investigations of the manifestation of these objects can shed valuable insight into their origin, function, and purpose, building an understanding of how they harness energy. In the present study, a location-centric manifestation in the 850 nm infrared spectra of orbs and rods that appeared to share some features characteristic of earth lights and light balls was studied. Common were magnetic disturbances, night vision systems that showed something that was not in sight or had disappeared, and a degree of plasticity in form or morphology. Variation in their orientation within and between trips to site was associated with differences in terrain and its impact on the line of sight. Orbs and rods appeared to orientate themselves to an anomaly within which they manifested. Other orbs were also observed ‘ghosting’ through a haze within the anomaly. The orientation of orbs and rods was aligned with the cardinal direction around the observer. Numbers always peaked early in evening after sunset and dissipating overnight and was correlated with the extent to which electric and magnetic field intensity built up during the day. Evidence suggested that some sort of energy coupling with a location-centric anomaly was occurring that may be interdimensional in nature. Detailed study of catalogued infrared film footage of object morphology, movement, and spectra will assist in further understanding the origin and function of orbs and rods. They could be natural, man-made, or non-human, representing some sort of intelligence, including non-human intelligence (NHI).
