OFFICIAL SOURCE GUIDE

UAP Archive Guide

This page documents the public-source backbone behind Now Declassified. The core archive anchor is National Archives UAP Records Collection (Record Group 615), supported by NARA topic pages, AARO case materials, NASA's UAP study, and historical FBI Vault files.

WHY THIS MATTERS FOR SEO

Search traffic in this niche comes from real archive-intent queries: NARA UAP records, AARO case resolutions, NASA UAP reports, and FBI UFO files. This site performs best when it clearly distinguishes between indexed incident summaries and official-source archive pages.

That is the model used here: Now Declassified is an independent research layer, not the archive of record. It helps users move between agency-specific hubs, incident summaries, pattern pages, and the official public repositories where source context lives.
