SCU Responds To Senate Public Hearing On UFOs - UAP

SCU commends the US Senate Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities on UAP hearing and applauds the first public release of some factual data on reported UAP shapes, altitudes, hotspots, and other characteristics; requests data on anomalous kinematics to support unclassified scientific research of UAP.

scientific research into unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP), released the following announcement:

The SCU commends Senators Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Jacky Rosen (D-NV), and Joni Ernst (R-IA) of the US Senate Committee on Armed Services, Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities (SASCSETC), and Dr. Kirkpatrick, Director of the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), on their informative public hearing on UAP held April 19, 2023.

The hearing described a rigorous approach toward collecting and resolving military UAP reports. It also contained the first public release by the US government of a set of factual data on shapes, altitudes, and hotspots, as well as radar, radio, and thermal IR characteristics, of UAP reported between 1996-2023. Encouragingly, the listed attributes from these classified military reports are consistent with typical characteristics gleaned from large, non-classified databases of UAP witness reports.

SCU’s subject matter experts see Dr. Kirkpatrick and his team taking the proper steps in three essential areas of the endeavor: careful UAP case triage methods, the skillful use of both intelligence and scientific teams, and technically detailed case study, as presented in the video analysis during the open hearing. This approach is critical to resolving UAP reports into the categories of insufficient data, prosaic phenomena, potential adversary craft, and the truly unknown.

As a research priority, SCU urges AARO to release information on the characteristics of objects that reflect a kinematic capability beyond currently known technologies. Such incidents have been reported repeatedly over the last 70 years; the 2004 Nimitz incident is only a recent example. These are a critical class of UAP reports that will help academic researchers to seek, and reasonably expect to receive, funding for their unclassified work through NSF, NASA, DoD, or even AARO.

SCU wishes to thank every Member of Congress who supported the funding of AARO. We agree with the US government that UAP is an area of scientific study critical for the security of our nation and world. We look forward to the information AARO will be sharing with the public in the future.

UFO, UAP Senate Hearing with AARO's Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick Testifying (VIDEO)

"... AARO has found no credible evidence thus far of extraterrestrial activity, off world technology or objects that defy the known laws of physics." –Dr. Sean Kirpatrick

Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, the director of the newly established All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, appeared before the Senate Armed Services Committee on Wednesday, April 19th, 2023. The committee invited Dr. Kirkpatrick to provide an update on the agency's progress since its inception.

From The UFO Chronicles 4-19-23

Dr. Kirkpatrick opened his testimony by stating that the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office has been working tirelessly to identify and mitigate anomalies across all domains (space, air and sea). The agency's primary mission is to detect and resolve potential anomalies in real-time to ensure operational readiness across all branches of the military.

Dr. Kirkpatrick went on to describe the agency's accomplishments over the past year, including the development of a sophisticated data analytics platform capable of analyzing large volumes of data from various sources. The platform can identify patterns and potential anomalies in real-time and provide actionable insights to military commanders.

He also discussed the agency's efforts to improve communication and collaboration between various branches of the military. By sharing data and insights, the agency has been able to identify potential anomalies before they become major issues, resulting in increased operational readiness and reduced risk to military personnel.

Dr. Kirkpatrick concluded his testimony by expressing his appreciation for the committee's support and emphasizing the importance of the agency's mission. He stressed that the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office is committed to continuing its efforts to enhance military readiness and ensure the safety of our nation's servicemen and women.

In conclusion, Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick's testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee highlights the critical work being done by the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office to ensure the safety and operational readiness of our military. Through the development of advanced data analytics tools and improved collaboration, the agency is making significant strides in detecting and resolving potential anomalies in real-time.
