Last week , the Department of Defense handed over the first part of the All - domain Anomaly Resolution Office ' s Historical Record Report to Congress . This report looks into all the information the US government has on unidentified anomalous phenomena , as required by the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2023 . AARO conducted a thorough review , going through all the official investigations since 1945 , digging into classified and unclassified files , conducting interviews , and collaborating with Intelligence Community and DOD officials . A second volume will be published , analyzing information obtained after November 1 , 2023 , including interviews with current and former US government personnel who reached out to AARO through their secure reporting mechanism on their website . This investigation is a collaborative effort involving many departments and agencies , and AARO appreciates the contributions and interviews from various individuals . The goal of AARO ' s work is to use a rigorous and scientific approach to investigate past UAP investigations and claims of hidden off - world technology and biological material . AARO has approached this project with an open mind , without any pre - determined conclusions or hypotheses . Their commitment is to reach conclusions based on verifiable evidence . So far , AARO has not found any evidence to support claims of the US government having access to or reverse - engineering extraterrestrial technology . There is also no evidence that any official investigations or research panels have confirmed sightings of UAP as extraterrestrial technology . Most sightings were determined to be ordinary objects or misidentifications . AARO concludes that the alleged hidden UAP reverse - engineering programs provided by interviewees either do not exist , are misidentified national security programs unrelated to extraterrestrial technology , or have been discontinued . The unclassified version of the Historical Record Report Volume 1 can be found on defense . gov and the AARO website , aaro . mil .
