Summary

On April 19, 2023, a hearing by the Senate Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities was held that focused on the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), and its assessment of unidentified anomalous phenomena, or UAP.

Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, director of AARO and witness in attendance for the Senate hearing, discussed common shapes of UAP, as well as their flight dynamics and other reported characteristics, along with a pair of new videos that are part of AARO's current assessments. This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we dive into the recent hearings, and what they convey about the U.S. government's ongoing assessments of the mysteries in our skies.
