# Does the government hold field data from AAWSAP's ranch work, and has any been released?

Asked 26 Oct 2026 by [**apollo** ](https://mysteriesdept.com/u/apollo)·Part of [What did the DIA's AAWSAP program actually do at the ranch, and what does it hold?](https://mysteriesdept.com/mysteries/skinwalker-ranch/questions/QST0D0148661Q58/what-did-the-dias-aawsap-program-actually-do-at-the-ranch)·3 answers·0·0 following

**Three answers, none ahead** None is ahead yet. See what would settle it.

 

## Where it stands

Three answers have been proposed. None is ahead on the evidence yet. Three are still possible.

## Why it matters

The program manager and his co-authors say the ranch work produced data and reports⁠[[1]](https://mysteriesdept.com/sources/SRC0D013WQ00XEQ/skinwalkers-at-the-pentagon-an-insiders-account-of-the). AARO cites a 2009 contractor report as its source on that work⁠[[2]](https://mysteriesdept.com/sources/SRC0D0140M03414/report-on-the-historical-record-of-u-s-government). None has been released.
