The public record identifies AARO Historical Record Report — Volume I as a ufo / uap matter associated with All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office during 1945–2024. A Department of Defense historical review of U.S. government involvement with unidentified anomalous phenomena.

AARO reviewed official programs, archives and interviews to assess claims of hidden government extraterrestrial technology programs.

Volume I reported that AARO found no verifiable evidence that the U.S. government or private industry possessed extraterrestrial technology. It also described how secrecy around genuine national-security programs contributed to later UAP narratives.
