Kosloski brings to the AARO experience working in multiple scientific fields, including quantum optics and crypto-mathematics, as well as leading mission-oriented research and analysis teams.

In a statement, Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks said Kosloski brings to AARO the experience required “to enhance AARO’s efforts to research and explain unidentified anomalous phenomena to the Department, Congress, and the American people.”

The Defense Department said that AARO “will continue to examine the U.S. government historical record relating to UAP, as well as efforts to declassify and release UAP-related records to the greatest extent possible.”
