From Project Blue Book to AARO: The National Archives’ Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Collection in RG 615 (2024 NDAA)

To the point

National Archives has created the Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Records Collection (RG 615) to centralize and preserve multi‑agency UAP records under the 2024 NDAA, requiring agencies to transfer digital copies with metadata by September 30, 2025 and to continue rolling transfers as needed, expanding the scope to include airborne, submerged, and transmedium phenomena and related technologies, while originals stay in agency records and public access is provided via the National Archives Catalog with redactions, all to make UAP documentation a transparent, systematically preserved part of national history beyond Project Blue Book in a post‑AARO era.

The National Archives and the UAP Records Collection - New Space Economy

The National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) serves as the nations record keeper, preserving documents of legal, historical, and administrative value. In recent years, this agency has assumed a central role in one of the most contentious and high-interest topics in modern governance: the documentation of Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP). Following the enactment of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2024, NARA began the complex process of establishing a unified collection of government records related to UAP, encompassing decades of reports, intelligence assessments, and administrative correspondence.
