[ATTW-L] EXT: reports on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP)

[White, Krista]

Thanks for this, Sam! Not only do these docs help students operationalize what they normally see as theoretical or abstract concepts (at least in my experience), I hope they will also persuade our Homeland Security department to review the necessity of tech comm for their majors - they recently eliminated the mandate for those students to take a tech comm course.

Subject: EXT: [ATTW-L] reports on Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP)


If you are looking for a sample of a technical report that might be engaging for your students, consider

Report on the Historical Record of U.S. Government Involvement with Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) issued by the

the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office of the U.S. Department of Defense (and, yes, this is a real thing that likely hires technical communicators).



The 45-page report (and 18 pages of source notes) covers official US investigations from 1945 to 2023 “with the goal of determining whether UAP represented a flight safety risk, technological leaps by competitor nations, or evidence of off-world technology under intelligent control.” The report uses headings and bulleted lists, but no illustrations. It also finds no evidence of extraterrestrial technology. This report is available at https://media.defense.gov/2024/Mar/08/2003409233/-1/-1/0/DOPSR-CLEARED-508-COMPLIANT-HRRV1-08-MAR-2024-FINAL.PDF



For a 15-page report that includes a glossary as well as a variety of illustrations, consider Fiscal Year 2023 Consolidated Annual Report on

Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena, which summarizes AARO’s annual activities and findings.  This report is available at https://www.aaro.mil/Portals/136/PDFs/UNCLASSIFIED-FY23_Consolidated_Annual_Report_on_UAP-Oct_25_2023_1236.pdf.
