Frequently asked questions
What the register is, what the scores do and don’t claim, and how it works.
What is Disclosure Register?
It is an independent, neutral catalog of officially disclosed UAP (unidentified anomalous phenomena) material. We log every record from the government releases we track and score each one on two axes — how solid the evidence is, and how far officials are from explaining it — using a single published method.
Do you claim that UAP are extraterrestrial?
No. We make no claim about the origin or nature of anything. Our “Anomaly Level” axis measures how far officials are from explaining a case. “Unexplained” means exactly that — not explained on the public record — never that something is alien or non-human.
Are you affiliated with the government?
No. Disclosure Register is an independent project of Roe Aque Internet Properties, not affiliated with or endorsed by any agency. See our independence statement.
What are PURSUE and AARO?
AARO is the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, the U.S. body tasked with reviewing UAP reports. PURSUE refers to the public disclosure releases we track. We catalog the records these processes have made public; we don't speak for them.
How are the two scores calculated?
By formula, from documented attributes — not by hand. Evidence Strength weighs source authority, corroboration, evidence quality, provenance, and official disposition. Anomaly Level weighs how explained it is, the capabilities described, and any unexplained residual. The full rubric is on the methodology page.
What does each evidence band mean?
From lowest to highest documentation: Noise, Unverified, Corroborated, Substantiated, and Officially Documented. A high evidence score means the record is well-sourced — it says nothing about how strange the event is.
Why are some cases ‘logged’ but not scored?
Our rule is “never omit, only rank.” Every released record gets a row. Thinner ones — where the public material doesn't yet support a responsible score — are honestly marked as logged and link to the government's own file, pending verification.
Where does the data come from?
From official government releases and agency records. Every assessed case links to its primary source so you can check it yourself. See Sources & Data.
How often is the register updated?
We update it when new official material is released or when we verify and score additional records. Notable updates are recorded in the changelog.
I think something is wrong. Can I request a correction?
Yes, please do. Email us with the case and the specifics; we review against the primary source and revise or annotate accordingly. See our corrections policy.
