The Department of Defense's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office issued this Fiscal Year 2024 Consolidated Annual Report on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena to Congress, covering May 1, 2023 to June 1, 2024. AARO received 757 reports, and every case it resolved turned out to be a prosaic object such as a balloon, bird, drone, satellite or aircraft. The report says there is no evidence of extraterrestrial technology and no reported health effects. It also covers drone incursions at nuclear sites, the GREMLIN sensor and the KONA BLUE documents.
UNCLASSIFIED 7 UNCLASSIFIED • DoD and FAA reports are used to establish the baseline data for many case files. For instance, AARO relies on its IC partners to apply GEOINT tradecraft and analytic methodologies to full-motion video collected by U.S. military aircrews to identify UAP reported through operational channels. Additionally, as individual cases require, AARO searches IC databases for GEOINT, SIGINT, HUMINT, and MASINT reports to facilitate its analysis and resolution of cases reported through the sources identified above. IV. OVERVIEW OF ANALYSIS AND FINDINGS A. Reported Morphologies Reporting trends of UAP morphologies remain consistent with historical patterns. Unidentified lights and round/spherical/orb-shaped objects made up the bulk of cases in which reports provided distinct visual characteristics (see Figure 3). Objects within the “other” category include unique descriptions such as “green fire ball,” “a jelly fish with [multicolored] flashing lights,” and a “silver rocket approximately six feet long.” • Of the reports AARO received during the reporting period, 170 reports during the reporting period (22.4% of total) which contained insufficient or no information to enable a morphological characterization.
