“Unidentified phenomena in the atmosphere are of interest for both national security and air safety,” NASA said.
Searching for UFOs is no longer relegated to conspiracists with tinfoil hats.
Per the report, the breakthrough research, which will cost no more than $100,000, will “focus on identifying available data” and “how NASA can use that data to move the scientific understanding of UAPs forward.” The UFO reconnaissance mission was inspired by the fact there are a limited number of recorded UAP observations, thereby making it difficult to draw scientific conclusions about such events.
To help them achieve this lofty goal, the UAP recon team will be seeking input from experts in the scientific, aeronautics and data analytics communities.
