Unidentified flying objects have always attracted the attention of generations.
The US Department of Defense has just announced the implementation of a mechanism to securely report UFO events on the website of the Office of Anomalies (Aaro), according to The Guardian on November 2.
However, the new temporary mechanism is only available to current or former federal officials, or those with knowledge of US government programs or activities related to so-called "unidentified anomalous phenomena" (UAP), the Pentagon's official name for UFOs.
A mechanism for accepting reports from civilians will soon be put into place, US officials said, a move that shows the US government is gradually making good on its promise to be completely open about what it knows, or doesn't know, about everything from strange lights in the sky to the possibility of extraterrestrial life and unusual "aircraft" sightings.
The deployment of the new tool comes after NASA appointed Mark McInerney as the first director of its UAP research effort. At the same time, the US space agency also promised to gather an "army" of stargazers from around the world to improve the observation results and analysis of unusual phenomena.

On the agency's website, Aaro said the new tool serves as an initial point of contact, and does not accept information from secondary sources about UAPs.
Aaro Director Sean Kirkpatrick said people who have seen or experienced UAPs are welcome to come forward with information. What they provide will be kept confidential and considered protected information.
