“As the
AARO
director, Dr. Kosloski will head DoD’s efforts, in coordination with the
Intelligence Community, to minimize technical and intelligence surprise by
synchronizing scientific, intelligence, and operational detection,
identification, attribution, and mitigation of unidentified anomalous
phenomena (UAP) in the vicinity of national security areas.”

working in multiple scientific fields, including quantum optics and
crypto-mathematics, as well as leading mission-oriented research and analysis
teams.
“Jon possesses the unique set of scientific and technical skills, policy
knowledge, and proven leadership experience required to enhance AARO’s efforts
to research and explain unidentified anomalous phenomena to the Department,
Congress, and the American people,” said Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen
Hicks.
As the AARO director, Dr. Kosloski will head DoD’s efforts, in coordination
with the Intelligence Community, to minimize technical and intelligence
surprise by synchronizing scientific, intelligence, and operational detection,
identification, attribution, and mitigation of unidentified anomalous
phenomena (UAP) in the vicinity of national security areas.
Under his leadership, 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.
Dr. Jon T. Kosloski
Dr. Jon T. Kosloski serves as the Director of the All-domain Anomaly
Resolution Office (AARO). Prior to that, Dr. Kosloski held technical and
leadership positions within the Research Directorate of the National Security
Agency (NSA). In that capacity, he led advanced mission-oriented research in
the fields of networking and computing, and served as a subject matter expert
in the area of Free Space Optics, advising various DoD agencies. In addition
to his optics research and crypto-mathematics, Dr. Kosloski invented an
advanced language-agnostic search engine and served at the DoD Special
Communications Enterprise Office.
Dr. Kosloski received Bachelor’s degrees in Mathematics and Physics from
California State University, San Bernardino, and a Ph.D. in Electrical
Engineering from Johns Hopkins University. The focus of his Doctoral research
was the invention of novel devices that leverage principles from quantum
optics to receive very weak phase-encoded signals. After completing the
theoretical analysis of two new optical receiver designs, Dr. Kosloski worked
with scientists from the National Institute of Standards and Technology to
demonstrate the abilities of his designs to achieve record sensitivities. Dr.
Kosloski is also a graduate from NSA’s Cryptanalysis Development Program.
