I was my agency’s co-lead in Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) and trans-
medium object analysis, as well as reporting to UAP Task Force (UAPTF) and eventually the All-
Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO).
This is taken from his opening statement at the hearing.
I agree with you, there appears to be a disagreement on facts between the two parties.
I’m not entirely sure. I recall him giving a specific job title for UAPTF. I don’t recall a specific job title for AARO. I would need to go back and listen.
Not a problem. This may be one of the most challenging topics from which to reliably extract facts or determine the truth. I believe that’s part of its allure. Regardless of how you approach it, it’s a massive story.
For sure. The entire field of UFO reporting as a cultural phenomenon–and really all of cryptography including bigfoot and ghosts–is one that exists in the gray areas. As soon as we have clear photos or facts one way or another, the discussion and fun is over because the conclusion is obvious (so far only in favor of one side).
We’ve seen this play out before with other topics many times, but science eventually answered those definitively so there’s no sizable community left to discuss them anymore.
That pretty much sums up my position on this matter and how I envision the future of this community. There are essentially two options.
We obtain evidence that proves this is prosaic. As a result, this community will likely fizzle out.
We obtain evidence that proves the existence of Non-Human Intelligence. As a result, this community grows because many more questions will need answering.
Is that true? Didn’t Grunsch say he worked for AARO? Who is lying?

Could it be that he was only “reporting to” AARO like UAPTF? Also, we’re there others that said they “worked for AARO” as he says they “stated”?

Thanks. I’m only starting to get into this in earnest so I’m trying to get my facts straight.
