DOD: AARO Expands UAP Reporting to All Domains
Defense officials announced an initiative to include maritime and space personnel in observation protocols. The expansion enables submariners and satellite operators to submit unusual incident reports. Previously, such documentation was limited to aviation communities.

The initiative specifically invites mariners, submarine crews, and space operators to contribute observations. Officials established mechanisms to distinguish actual unknown objects from classified government activities. This expansion reflects a comprehensive approach to monitoring all operational theaters.
