In February 2024, the US Department of Defense UAP investigation office AARO, the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, presented what it described as a historical report into US Government involvement with UAP.[1]
It concluded that
To date, AARO has not discovered any empirical evidence that any sighting of a UAP represented off-world technology or the existence of a classified program that had not been properly reported to Congress.[2]
It went on to state that
although may UAP reports remain unsolved, AARO assesses that if additional quality data were available most of these cases could be identified and resolved as ordinary objects or phenomena.
For, how could AARO make such an assertion without first doing the research to validate it? Such an assertion is a rejection of the very basis of the scientific method – AARO, on its own admission, was expressly pre-judging a purportedly objective and extremely important conclusion before all the data had been collected and assessed. The AARO report was, conspicuously, not endorsed by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, which (as cited earlier) has backed the need for further rigorous investigation into the UAP mystery before any conclusion can be reached.
Moreover, the AARO Historical Review Report provided no data to substantiate its assertion that the majority of UAP sightings in the earlier decades of UAP investigations were the,
…result of misidentification of ordinary phenomena and objects.
It also claimed, without any supporting evidence, that many UAPs could be explained by still classified US black-world technologies still in development behind classified programs:
AARO assesses that some portion of sightings since the 1940s have represented misidentification of never-before-seen experimental and operational space, rocket and air systems, including stealth technologies and the proliferation of drone platforms.[3]
Such an assertion is again at odds with the admissions made by multiple defence and intelligence insiders that there is no known technology capable of replicating the performance parameters witnessed by reliable military witnesses, objects doing speeds and performing manoeuvres far beyond known human technology. AARO also appears to have overlooked the fact that, when asked if the UAPs witnessed by military aviators could be still classified black-world technology, the then deputy director of Naval Intelligence, Scott Bray, testified to Congress in 2022 that,
…we were quite confident that was not the explanation.[4]
Fundamental to the scientific method is the positing of a hypothesis that is eventually either proved or disproved. That hypothesis can be verified or not through the process of observation. Hence, NHIR’s goal will be to gather data, form a hypothesis and to test that hypothesis. NHIR has a number of research projects now underway which we will publicise shortly.
