From AAWSAP to AATIP: U.S. Defense Efforts to Investigate UAPs and Advanced Aerospace Threats

Beginning around 2007, the Defense Intelligence Agency launched AAWSAP to study unidentified aerial phenomena and potential advanced aerospace technologies for national security, assembling researchers to analyze UAP encounters, characteristics, flight patterns, and behaviors and to identify technologies that could affect defense, later renaming the program the Advanced Aerospace Threat Identification Program (AATIP) with a broader mandate, producing classified reports and analyses, and in 2017 the Pentagon acknowledged UAP investigations and released declassified videos, fueling growing public and policymaker interest and ongoing debate about the nature and origins of sightings as government data collection continues with many questions unresolved.
