Analyzing the Unidentified: AARO’s Hunt for UAP and 'Tyson vs the Triangles' | MHP 08.07.25.

In a rare public interview, Jon Kosloski, Director of the Pentagon’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) joined astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson on StarTalk Radio to pull back the curtain on the U.S. government's investigation into Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAPs). From law enforcement sightings of black triangles and glowing orbs to the challenges of AI-generated hoaxes and classified sensor tech, Kosloski offered a breakdown of AARO’s scientific approach to UAP analysis.

This week on The Micah Hanks Program, following a “State of the UAP” address that looks at the current state of the phenomenon, the history behind what got us here, and issues UAP studies currently faces, we examine Kosloski’s recent discussion with Tyson, and look at what insights, clarity, and also a few concerns this episode reveals about the state of UAP studies, along with the facts and fictions surrounding the UAP debate.
