When this site gets something wrong, the fix is logged here, in public, with a date. A site that hides its corrections is not more reliable, only quieter about its mistakes.

The Wow! signal bench said a noiseless Gaussian through the beam floors to 3-13-27-30-19-6. Running the shipped sampler with the recorded residuals zeroed gives 3-13-26-29-19-7. It also said that at the slider's lowest setting the event is a "5" nobody circles, where the sampler prints a 4 there. Two things on the printout were drawn or dated wrongly: the hydrogen-line marker sat one whole channel, 10 kHz, below the frequency its own labels give, and the sidereal time column was based so that the row carrying the U read 19:23:36, where the same sheet prints the right ascension as 19h25m31s. Both now come from the labels beside them.
The warp energy ledger put the laboratory Casimir floor about sixty orders of magnitude below a warp bill. Sixty is the distance to Van Den Broeck's few solar masses; to White's probe-mass figure it is thirty-three. The same cards called Van Den Broeck's reduction a billion-fold, where the ladder makes it thirty-three orders of magnitude, and priced White's bubble at about 500 kg where the readout beside it prints 722, the mass of Voyager. The copy invited the reader to push the estimate off the top of the ladder; the ladder ends two decades above anything the sliders reach, so nothing ever ran off it.
The Tabby's Star bench called its planet Jupiter-sized and its dip about one per cent, while the panel beside it printed 1.5% and the disk it flew was 1.66 times Jupiter's width. The planet is now a real Jupiter, and the star's disk is sampled at 6,400 points instead of 1,600 so the readout resolves it: the dip is 0.5%, and the deepest event on the record is about forty times that, not twenty. Three other lines went with it. The Dyson swarm's dip was said to follow its covering fraction one for one, where it runs between 0.8 and 1.9 times it. The occulter needed for the deepest dip was called roughly the star's own width, where the bench inverts to 43% of it. And the shallow-dip card named four of the six dips that route to it.
The 'Oumuamua bench quoted the interstellar approach speed as 26.3 km/s in eighteen places, and the perihelion speed as 87.7 km/s. Those belong to the discovery-paper orbit. The bench integrates the JPL solution it names, and on those elements the speeds are 26.4 and 87.4 km/s, which is what its own readouts print. Both figures now follow the orbit the instrument actually flies.
The gravitational-wave bench said two detectors 3,000 km apart caught the same seven-millisecond wiggle. Seven milliseconds is the gap between the two arrivals; the signal sweeps for about a fifth of a second, which the rest of the copy has right. The same panel listed the GW150914 and GW170817 figures as exact, where GW170817 is drawn at GW150914's peak strain so the neutron-star pattern stays readable at the same magnification, and its real peak strain was about a sixth of that. The panel now says so. Both languages also said the neutron stars never ring down here while the code rang them down at the merger frequency; the code was changed, not the sentence.
The LGM-1 bench lists what its drawing exaggerates and ended that list by saying the periods are real. The planet test wobbles the period at 0.28 of light speed, about 2,800 times what Earth's orbit does to a signal. The list now says so.

A full audit of the site found the errors below. Each was checked against its primary source before it was corrected.
Since June, a group of briefings had been showing internal editing notes in place of published text. Source descriptions opened with a note saying they were unchanged, several reference lists and one section of the Release 01 overview were replaced by the same kind of note, and the Chinese title of the Apollo 11 briefing carried an editing instruction. The notes are gone and the missing lists and section are restored. Two quotations of AARO's descriptions, for PR051 and PR072, now match AARO's catalogue wording. The Release 01 overview and the PURSUE wiki entry said the release holds 28 infrared clips; it holds 27 short video clips, most of them infrared.
The Mexico cable briefing dated the State Department cable 16 September 2003 in its source box. The cable's header reads 16 September 2023; the 2003 comes from the war.gov listing. Corrected, and the note on the date now says where each year comes from.
The Special Report No. 14 briefing gave the unknowns among object sightings as 474, or 21.5 per cent. In the report's Figure 2, 474 is the aircraft count. Unknowns on that basis are 434, or 19.7 per cent, and 21.5 per cent is the unknown share of all 3,201 sightings. Corrected in the briefing and the wiki entry.
The Apollo 11 briefing and the astronauts topic page credited lines from the crew debriefing to the wrong astronauts. "The first unusual thing" and "we weren't sure but what it might be the S-IVB" are Buzz Aldrin's, not Michael Collins's, including under a From the record quotation. The hollow cylinder and the open-book shape are Collins's, not Aldrin's. The L shape is Aldrin's, and "Like an open suitcase" is Neil Armstrong's. The briefing also said both volumes of the debriefing are hosted at war.gov; the release hosts an excerpt. Corrected from the transcript pages.
The Apollo 17 briefing joined words from two astronauts into one quotation credited to the lunar module pilot. The bright particles drifting by were described by the command module pilot; the Fourth of July line is the lunar module pilot's. It also gave the lunar module pilot the commander's description of the object's flashing rhythm. Both corrected, and the S-IVB line is now quoted as transcribed.
The mission-report briefing quoted DOW-UAP-D28 as saying "IT IS UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME WHETHER AN UNIDENTIFIED OBJECT [flew] THROUGH THE AIRCRAFT". The report contains no such sentence. The quotation joined two separate sentences, one about an object that flew through the aircraft's sensors and one about whether an object detached from the primary UAP. The briefing also said the location was redacted; the report prints Ayn al Asad Air Base. Both corrected, and the D25 and D74 descriptions now include what those reports record: a tail or probe, an altitude that rose and fell, and a speed of about 424 knots held for at least seven minutes.
The briefings on the four April 2021 clips, the instant-acceleration clip, the three CENTCOM clips from before the 2020 wave, the two longest Release 01 clips and the Western Pacific clips, and the April 2021 wiki entry, described footage in ways AARO's own timecoded descriptions do not support. They gave about twenty minutes of tracking where AARO records about nine and a half, called a closing segment no new footage where AARO records original-resolution footage and a locked reticle, called frames mostly empty where AARO records tracking of several objects, and called tracking unbroken where AARO records gaps. The passages now report what AARO's descriptions record. The Western Pacific briefing also closed by calling the set authentic primary footage, although AARO states one clip was digitally altered; that line has been rewritten. The long-clips briefing now gives the pair's length as about ten minutes rather than almost ten, since together they run just over.
The suppression topic page said Jimmy Carter had repeatedly said in public since 1976 that he asked the CIA for a UFO briefing and was refused. No such statement by Carter was found. Asked about that story on the podcast The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe in July 2007, he said "No" and "it's not true". The page now attributes the story to those who tell it, Daniel Sheehan and Grant Cameron, and gives Carter's answer. The same page said the Pentagon's 2024 historical report calls Kona Blue unapproved because there was no material to study. The report says the programme was never approved and its supporters never provided evidence, and AARO's separate memo adds that it never received materials or funding. Corrected.
