The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) is an office within the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) that investigates unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAP) across various domains, such as air, sea, land, space, and even undersea. Established in 2022, the AARO's primary goal is to resolve UAP reports by analyzing data from military and other sources to enhance national security and aviation safety. The office was preceded by the Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force (UAPTF), which operated from 2020 to 2021 within the Office of Naval Intelligence. AARO aims to continue and expand upon UAPTF's efforts by standardizing the collection and reporting of UAP sightings across the DoD's special use airspace, as well as anomalous, unidentified space, airborne, submerged, and transmedium objects.
