Which statement is attributed to Unknown in the material?

• A. Unknown
• B. Space is not just the final frontier, it is the foundation of our future
• C. Space is hard
• D. We have a responsibility to secure the space domain to defend U.S. service members in harm's way

Answer: (A)

Understanding attribution in the material is key. When a statement is said to be attributed to Unknown, the source line in the material presents Unknown as the speaker. In this question, the only option that matches that attribution is the one that is literally the word Unknown itself—the line that uses Unknown as the speaker. The other options are actual substantive statements that would be spoken by someone whose identity is known, so they’re not attributed to Unknown. So the correct choice is the line that is simply the word Unknown, because that is how Unknown is indicated as the speaker in the material.
