U.S. Government UAP-Related Program/Activity Report 
AARO is currently accepting reports from current or former U.S. Government employees, service members, or 
contractor personnel with direct knowledge of U.S. Government programs or activities related to UAP dating back to 
1945. These reports will be used to inform AARO’s congressionally directed Historical Record Report. The reporting 
form is intended as an initial point of contact with AARO; it is not intended for conveying potentially sensitive or 
classified information. Please do not provide any sensitive or classified information in this form. Following the 
submission of your report, AARO staff may reach out to request additional detail or arrange for an informational 
interview. 
Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) means (A) airborne objects that are not immediately identifiable; (B) 
transmedium objects or devices; (C) and submerged objects or devices that are not immediately identifiable and that 
display behavior or performance characteristics suggesting that the objects or devices may be related to the objects or 
devices described in subparagraph (A) or (B). (Per the NDAA FY23 Section 1673(d)(8)) 
The DoD considers Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) as sources of anomalous detections in one or more 
domains (i.e., airborne, seaborne, spaceborne, and/or transmedium) that are not yet attributable to known actors and that 
demonstrate behaviors that are not readily understood by sensors or observers. 
“Anomalous detections” include but are not limited to phenomena that demonstrate apparent capabilities or material that 
exceed known performance envelopes. A UAP may consist of one or more unidentified anomalous objects and may persist 
over an extended period of time.
