Pentagon, Under Mandate, Creates New Office to Investigate and ‘Mitigate’ UFOs

The Defense Department is standing up a new organization to investigate unexplained aerial phenomena, particularly where it potentially affects military activities, the DOD announced July 20. The move was directed by Congress.

The new organization is the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, or AARO, which replaces the Airborne Object Identification and Management Group. AARO will report to the undersecretary of defense for intelligence and security, Ronald S. Moultrie. The AARO itself will be under the direction of Sean M. Kirkpatrick, most recently chief scientist at the Defense Intelligence Agency’s missile and space intelligence center.

The organization is mandated by the National Defense Authorization Act of 2022, which contained language directing the Pentagon to create a formal organization to routinely investigate UAP as they affect defense activities. It was spurred by hearings wherein the Pentagon was unable to explain video obtained from Navy F/A-18s, ships, and other units of unknown flying objects that came close to U.S. military platforms and activities.

Defense witnesses speculated at the time that UAPs could be adversary nation systems unknown to the U.S., or something else. The Pentagon has avoided characterizing UAPs as extraterrestrial in nature, but has acknowledged such a possibility, as the services do not think the performance of the objects observed to be within the technological capabilities of China, Russia, or other nations.

How is the ongoing construction at Devil's Tower Wyoming proceeding?
It's going well, I hope.
I'm looking forward to watching the special effects footage on CNN...

It sounds like an office to re-direct any inquiries.

“Mitigate” means “make it go away”. They will now have an official channel for denial and debunking.

Now that you mention it, that is an odd word to choose considering they don’t yet know what they are dealing with.

I suspect Giorgio A. Tsoukalos will be the chief cook and bottle washer of the new dept.

First, Giorgia needs to find out who the invisible people are that Biden is always trying to shake hands with.

Easy. Exchange dollars with the Ferengi for gold pressed latinum.

I’m surprised with all the lgbt priorities that they have any $$$ left over for UFOs.
