Pentagon UFO office launches digital form to collect info on government UAP programs, activities
CBSN
The Pentagon has launched a digital form allowing current or former government employees, contractors or service members to report "direct knowledge of U.S. Government programs or activities related to" Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena, or UAPs, the formal government name for objects that had previously been known as UFOs.
The All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office says it will use the information submitted through its website in a report on UAPs. The AARO, which was established through the annual defense policy bill approved by Congress in 2021, is considered the leading federal agency for UAP efforts.
The AARO says classified information should not be submitted through the form, but notes that reporting through the site would not be considered a violation of a non-disclosure agreement. People should also not submit secondhand information, and only people who were U.S. government or contractor personnel with direct knowledge of "U.S. government programs or activities related to UAP" should contribute. However, in the future, the reporting eligibility will be expanded, the agency says.
