AARO has filed to sole-source a data subscription to North America's largest private UFO archive. The reason is that the government stopped keeping the record itself in 1970.
A new analytic capability let AARO resolve 238 UAP reports as satellite flares in a single year. Here's the specular-reflection science — and exactly where it stops.
Gallup's first UFO survey since the disclosure programme began finds belief in alien spacecraft has slipped to 37% — while the share who think the government knows more has hit a record 78%.
Temperature inversions, birds and faulty filters routinely fake solid radar targets. Here's the physics behind the false returns — and the radar-visual cases that genuinely don't fit any of it.
A new preprint works through all 112 PURSUE sensor videos looking for the four quantities needed to turn pixels into a speed. Not one clip contains the full set — and the redactions are why.
AARO is drafting custody rules for UAP-derived material while denying the government holds a scrap of it. The latest specimen sent to Oak Ridge came back as ordinary cast aluminium — and the sceptics and the believers both have a point.
Marco Rubio told a podcast that objects are flying over US military installations and 'they're not ours'. The transcript is official and the quote is real — but the same answer contains a denial, a handover, and an admission worth more than the headline.
A nuclear-winter pioneer has proposed that glowing orbs are burning meteor dust held together by its own magnetism. The paper is open for review until September, and you can read the referees pull it apart.
The Pentagon's fifth tranche of UAP records runs to 41 files. One of them is an unresolved intelligence report on 25 objects around an AC-130J gunship — and one debunks itself two cables later.
A 26-year air traffic controller has gone on the record about what civil radar does with unidentified targets: filters them out, then wipes the raw data after 45 days. Both rules live in the same FAA order.
Matthew Brown, who wrote the Immaculate Constellation report, says the new PURSUE intake channels are 'more of the same' and possibly a trap. The awkward part is that some of his objection is procedurally correct.
An unclassified memorandum signed on 31 July tells every US intelligence agency that UAP nondisclosure agreements are no longer in force — and that staff who know something should report it. To the government.
Hundreds of unidentified objects a year cross restricted airspace over American installations and go unattributed. The obstacle isn't secrecy or physics — it's a 2017 statute, a disputed list, and an office whose remit explicitly excludes drones.
Cattle mutilations, orbs, a billionaire, a $22m Pentagon contract and a hit TV show — Skinwalker Ranch has everything except the one thing that would settle it. Here's what actually holds up.
For the first time, the House has adopted a comprehensive UAP records framework on its own floor — Archives collection, review board, eminent domain and all. Turning that into law is an entirely different problem.
The Pentagon's annual report logs a single maritime UAP event — roughly 100 airborne objects and two apparently uncrewed vessels off the Virginia coast. It gets one paragraph, no date, and no explanation. Here is the full file.
A fifteen-strong panel of scientists, chaired by Avi Loeb, has been asked to resolve the UAP question for the US government — with no budget, no clearances, and access only to material already made public.
The annual AARO report catalogues hundreds of fresh military encounters, resolves a chunk of them as balloons and drones, and quietly leaves a stubborn few unexplained.
