All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) (2022)

Introduction

The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) was established in July 2022 to investigate and resolve anomalies across multiple domains—air, sea, space, and transmedium—within the context of U.S. national security. The office represents an evolution of previous efforts like Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program (AAWSAP), Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP), and The Pentagon's UAP Task Force (UAPTF) (2020), broadening the scope and expanding the organizational framework for addressing unidentified phenomena.

AARO’s creation reflects growing recognition of the need for a systematic approach to UAP (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena) and other unidentified anomalies that may pose safety, security, and technological challenges.

Origins and Mandate

  1. Origins:

    • AARO was established following the recommendations of the June 2021 UAPTF Report, which highlighted the limitations of existing efforts to study UAPs and related phenomena.
    • The office was created under the oversight of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security (USD(I&S)) to ensure a coordinated, all-domain approach.

  2. Mandate:

    • Investigate and resolve unidentified phenomena observed across air, maritime, terrestrial, and space domains, as well as transmedium vehicles capable of transitioning between these domains.
    • Assess potential national security threats and provide actionable intelligence to defense and intelligence stakeholders.
    • Collaborate with scientific, technical, and academic communities to enhance understanding and analysis.

Key Objectives

  1. Data Collection and Standardization:

    • Develop protocols for the consistent and comprehensive collection of data on UAPs and anomalies.
    • Standardize reporting processes across all branches of the military, intelligence agencies, and relevant civilian organizations.

  2. Threat Assessment:

    • Analyze anomalies to determine their origin, capabilities, intent, and potential threat to U.S. national security.
    • Evaluate whether anomalies are attributable to foreign adversaries, natural phenomena, or unknown technological sources.

  3. Cross-Domain Analysis:

    • Expand beyond the focus on aerial phenomena to investigate anomalies in maritime, space, and transmedium environments.
    • Integrate sensor data, eyewitness accounts, and advanced analytics to create a multidimensional understanding of anomalous events.

  4. Transparency and Oversight:

    • Provide regular briefings to Congress and maintain open channels of communication with the public to ensure transparency.
    • Encourage collaborative research and reduce stigma surrounding UAP reporting.

Structure and Leadership

  1. Organizational Framework:

    • Operates under the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security.
    • Coordinates with the Department of Defense (DoD), intelligence community, civilian researchers, and international partners.

  2. Leadership:

    • Directed by experts in intelligence, defense, and scientific research, ensuring a multidisciplinary approach.
    • As of its founding, Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, a physicist with a background in advanced technologies, serves as its first director.

Key Areas of Investigation

  1. Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP):

    • Continue investigating aerial objects displaying advanced propulsion, maneuverability, and flight characteristics beyond known human technology.

  2. Maritime and Submarine Anomalies:

    • Examine reports of unidentified underwater objects (USOs) capable of moving at extraordinary speeds or transitioning between air and water.

  3. Space-based Phenomena:

    • Monitor anomalies observed in orbital and extraterrestrial environments, including unidentified objects tracked by satellites.

  4. Transmedium Vehicles:

    • Analyze phenomena involving objects capable of seamless transitions between air, water, and space, a key characteristic of many UAPs.

Key Challenges

  1. Data and Resource Gaps:

    • Address the lack of high-quality, corroborative data for many UAP sightings.
    • Overcome the fragmentation of data collection across multiple agencies and organizations.

  2. Stigma and Skepticism:

    • Combat the historical stigma surrounding UAP reporting, which has deterred many credible witnesses from coming forward.
    • Bridge the gap between scientific curiosity and national security concerns.

  3. Technological Complexity:

    • Investigate anomalies that may represent advanced technologies, whether terrestrial or extraterrestrial in origin.
    • Analyze capabilities such as hypersonic speeds, sudden accelerations, and transmedium mobility.

  4. International Coordination:

    • Collaborate with international partners to share data and insights on UAPs, recognizing their global nature.

  5. Intentional Disinformation:

    • Many aspects of the Fascist Security State do not want truth and transparency in regards to the issues relating to UAP and extraterrestrials. Concerns immediately emerged that this was the next carefully scripted step in Controlled Disclosure.
