The UNSC Charter for Xenoarcheological Artifact Recovery and Quarantine is a document issued by the United Nations Space Command which outlines the proper procedures and regulations pertaining to the discovery of alien artifacts relevant to xenoarchaeology. According to Article 2477-6 of the charter, it is a severe violation to allow the acquisition of a Class 9B asset to go unreported.
