The UAP Science Advisory Council has published a document setting out its mission, objectives and areas of work.
The Council supports the White House's UAP transparency initiative by advising the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) and other government bodies. It also carries out its own scientific research and gives independent assessments of UAP data.
Its objectives are:
- To determine conclusively, through scientific research, whether any UAP are technologies of nonhuman and possibly extraterrestrial origin.
- To determine whether other UAP are natural phenomena of an unknown kind.
- To determine whether testimony from former government and contractor personnel about classified UAP programs is accurate.
- To show that UAP are a legitimate subject for mainstream science and should be a national and international research priority.
