A fascinating detail appears in BAASS's activity report for June 2009: the company sent a team to Brazil. At the time, the firm was investigating UFO reports and expanding its team and offices.
The report describes activities beyond the United States but doesn't specify what the team did in Brazil. The same document also includes a proposal to reduce payment to the organization that supplied the company with reports.
Investigating Reports and Expansion
BAASS was the company that conducted the investigations and produced the report. It examined information received through MUFON, an organization that collects UFO reports. The report describes investigative activities based on this information but does not detail which reports were examined.
Concurrently, the company expanded its team and moved into new offices. It also made progress on technical documents it had been commissioned to write. These were different facets of the company's activities that month: investigating reports, expanding operations, and preparing documents.
Team Dispatched to Brazil
Within this description, the dispatch of a team to Brazil is also mentioned. The report notes the trip but provides no details about the work done there. It also describes contacts with entities in other countries and a review of UFO materials published by foreign governments.
Thus, it becomes clear that the activity was not limited to collecting reports received via MUFON. BAASS was also involved in international contacts and materials from other countries. But Brazil remains a solitary detail in the report: there is no description of a mission, a specific case, or an outcome.
Payment Re-evaluated
That same month, BAASS proposed reducing its monthly payment to MUFON. The proposal was contingent on a further review of the organization's performance. In other words, the company that received reports from MUFON suggested re-evaluating its payment while the work with the information continued.
What Remains Unknown
The report does not explain what the team did in Brazil or what it found. It also does not detail why the payment reduction was proposed, and parts of the record have been redacted.
