NASA Creates Independent Team to Study Unidentified Aerial Phenomena science
from a scientific perspective. It will focus on identifying available data, how best to collect future data, and how NASA can use that data to move the scientific understanding of UAPs forward.UAPs, popularly known as UFOs, are observations of events in the sky that cannot be identified as aircraft or known natural phenomena. They are of interest for both national security and air safety.
Establishing which events are natural provides a key first step to identifying or mitigating such phenomena, which aligns with one of NASA’s goals to ensure the safety of aircraft. “NASA believes that the tools of scientific discovery are powerful and apply here also,” said Dr. Thomas Zurbuchen, the associate administrator for science at NASA Headquarters.
“We have access to a broad range of observations of Earth from space — and that is the lifeblood of scientific inquiry.”“That’s the very definition of what science is. That’s what we do.”
