In recent months, the U.S. Congress has held numerous hearings and confidential briefings. Many lawmakers are worried that the U.S. airspace may not be as safe as they thought because military pilots and other armed forces personnel reported seeing many unidentified objects

in view of this, the U.S. Department of Defense announced the establishment of a new office, called the "global anomaly resolution office" (AAro), which is subordinate to the office of the under secretary of defense for intelligence and security. The new agency will be led by Sean Kirkpatrick, who served as the chief scientist of the missile and space intelligence center of the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency

the U.S. Department of defense wrote in a statement that the new office will coordinate the efforts of the entire Department of defense and the federal government to "detect, identify and identify targets of interest in or near military facilities, operational areas, training areas, special purpose airspace and other areas of interest, and mitigate any related threats to operations and national security if necessary"

in another statement, Kathleen Hicks, deputy secretary of defense, wrote that the new office is now the focal point for all UAP and UAP related activities of the Department of defense and may carry out such activities on behalf of the Department of defense

this office will try to detect and identify objects of interest, including "abnormal, unknown space, air, underwater and cross medium objects". The so-called "cross medium" refers to objects or aircraft that can shuttle between different fields, such as objects that can fly from high altitude into space, or objects that can fly from underwater into high altitude

the establishment of this new organization is only one of the latest measures taken by the U.S. government in recent months to better understand UFO. In June this year, NASA commissioned a team to investigate UAP. One of its goals is to eliminate misunderstandings related to this topic

daniel Evans, deputy director of research affairs of NASA's Science Mission agency, said at the press conference held at that time: "we indirectly hope to help eliminate the misunderstanding related to this through public discussion of this research. Obviously, this will help bring more data and more eyewitness reports." (small)
