I am honored and excited to announce that ASA is launching today as a 501(c)(3) charitable organization to fight for transparency to uncover the mystery of UAP.

1. Build the first-ever coalition of military and commercial pilots to help lead this effort.
2. Convene an incredible advisory board of military and commercial pilots, experts in aerospace, national security, intelligence, federal policy, science and academia to help guide us, and…
3. You! It is essential to have a strong, supportive community to show Congress, the executive branch, and the media that UAP deserves to be taken seriously, without stigma, and as an urgent matter of aerospace safety, national security, and science.

Let me share with you a little more about our team:

ASA is convening the first-ever coalition of military and commercial pilots dedicated to working on the UAP issue. Pilots, aircrew and operators have been key witnesses to UAP incidents, but have received little to no support when they make hard-to-explain reports. This is not just a problem of stigma but of stigma encoded in public policy. ASA’s Aircrew Council will provide expertise on the issue and pave the way for more military and commercial pilots to come forward about their experiences.

- Alex Dietrich — Former F/A-18 pilot, U.S. Navy
- David Fravor — Former F/A-18 pilot, U.S. Navy; Commander, Black Aces Squadron (Ret.)
- Sam Fletcher — Former F/A-18 weapon system officer, U.S. Navy
- Lewis Harding — Former Chief of Safety, U.S. Air Force; Colonel, 940th Wing / 9th Reconnaissance Wing
- Mark Hulsey — Former F/A-18 pilot, U.S. Marines
- Chris Van Voorhis — A-330 Captain, Hawaiian Airlines; A-330 Flight Instructor

ASA’s advisory board is composed of technical experts, thought leaders, and academics who are leaders on the issue of UAP. They represent a diverse cross-section of relevant backgrounds ranging from national security, intelligence, Capitol Hill, journalism, sciences, and the aerospace / UAV industry.

- Bryan Bender — VP Communications Strategy, SMI; former defense editor at Politico
- Tim Gallaudet — Former Head of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Rear Admiral, U.S. Navy (Ret.)
- Robin Hanson — Professor of Economics, George Mason University; Researcher at Future of Humanity Institute of Oxford
- John Lettieri — Co-Founder, President & CEO, Economic Innovation Group
- Avi Loeb — Professor of Astronomy, Harvard; Head of the Galileo Project
- Susan McCue — Former Chief of Staff for U.S. Sen. Harry Reid; Co-Founder of One Campaign
- Chris Mellon — Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence
- Garry Nolan — Professor of Pathology, Stanford University of Medicine, Founder of the SOL Foundation
- Adam Ozimek — Chief Economist, Economic Innovation Group
- David Radzanowski — Former VP and CFO, The Aerospace Corporation; EX CFO and Chief of Staff, NASA
- Terry Virts — International Space Station Commander, NASA Astronaut; Colonel, U.S. Air Force (Ret.)

Now I have to ask. Will you help us? Our community is already more than 2,000, and we want to double that to show Members of Congress that we are serious. Our voices are more powerful together. Can you ask 3 friends to join ASA?

Thank you so much for your support! We are just getting started. Checkout coverage of our launch this morning in
