Episode 5: Pentagon's AARO reveals details about a private workshop with civilian researchers focused on standardizing UAP data collection. The workshop marks a shift toward greater collaboration between government and civilian UAP researchers.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirms AARO's caseload has grown to over 2,000 cases, with approximately 1,000 reports lacking sufficient data for analysis. A War Department official states AARO is working with the White House to consolidate records and expedite release of never-before-seen UAP information.

Harvard astrophysicist Dr. Avi Loeb publishes two new Medium articles on the disclosure developments, expressing optimism that President Trump's directive could enable scientists like himself to access UAP data for analysis.
