Yes! We’re back at it again! The Pentagon’s All Domain Anomaly Research Office (AARO) has released a new supposedly comprehensive UFO Report, touted as Volume One of a series. So, what’s the verdict? According to them, there’s nothing to see here—move along.
This report claims to delve into historical UFO/UAP cases and addresses whether the U.S. Government possesses crash debris. Despite decades of reports suggesting otherwise, the AARO report indicates we have nothing, nor do private corporations like Battelle Corporation. Essentially, AARO dismisses UFOs as insignificant.
Christopher Mellon, former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and a strong advocate for UFO/UAP transparency, did not hold back on X. He stated, “I fully concur with… comments regarding the ineptitude of the AARO historical report; it is pathetic. Anyone who has read even a few basic books about the history of UAP can see that. I believe it not only neglects critical events but also contains inaccuracies in other statements… This report is prompting me and others to redouble our efforts to assist Congress and the public in learning the truth.”
Thank you, Mr. Mellon! MUFON stands with you in assisting Congress.
We at MUFON, along with the majority of the UFO community, the American public, and the world, agree that the report is sloppy, poorly written, and riddled with inaccuracies. It’s hard to take this report seriously.
Here is that report:
