U.S. Army: TTSA Cooperative Research Agreement Signed
Military officials established a formal research partnership with the civilian organization To The Stars Academy. The arrangement aimed to evaluate metallic samples for potential defense applications regarding electromagnetic shielding. This marked a rare collaboration between government laboratories and a private UAP research entity.
Background
In 2019, the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Ground Vehicle Systems Center initiated Agreement #19-15 with TTSA. The partnership, designated "Novel & Emerging Technology Exploitation (NETE)," sought to analyze alleged anomalous materials for military utility.
TTSA provided one magnesium-zinc-bismuth sample designated "Artifact A1" as the sole test subject for the five-year investigation. The company suggested this material might function as an electromagnetic waveguide based on theoretical physics literature, promising revolutionary implications for military technology.
This arrangement represented a unique intersection of government defense research and civilian UAP investigation, attracting significant media attention when initially announced.
