Dr. Jon Kosloski, the new Director of AARO, testified before the Senate SASC subcommittee regarding improvements in data collection, sensor development, and public website updates.
Strong for congressional record and administrative status reports. Weak for proving the origin of any specific sighting.

Investigative Assessments

"The reported claim remains worth testing against the record: Dr. Jon Kosloski, the new Director of AARO, testified before the Senate SASC subcommittee regarding improvements in data collection, sensor development, and public website updates. The strongest documented reasons to keep the file open are: Jon Kosloski Senate Statement for the Record: It records the official progress update of AARO under its new director.. Key unresolved lead: What new sensor capabilities are currently being developed by AARO?"
"Evidentiary limitations: Strong for congressional record and administrative status reports. Weak for proving the origin of any specific sighting. Note that: Jon Kosloski Senate Statement for the Record fails to support: It notes that AARO has found no evidence of extraterrestrial life or technologies.."
