# Seen something in the sky? AARO's door is still not open to everyone

You have a recording of something you cannot identify. The obvious US reporting form may not be for you: AARO still distinguishes public sightings from government testimony and pilot reports.

## Who the form is for

Current or former government, military and contractor personnel with direct knowledge of government UAP activities. Classified material must not be sent through it.

## A separate pilot route

Civilian pilots are directed to air traffic control; AARO receives pilot reports through the FAA.

## Sources and context

Checked September 6: AARO says it will announce a public mechanism. This is a status check, not a policy change announced today.

The page gives no public launch date.
