A media briefing earlier today outlined the findings in the report as well as what it could all mean for the future of UFO research.
Following on from NASA's first ever public meeting on the topic of UFOs back in June, the report, which was penned by an independent team of scientists and researchers, has finally been released.
In it, the researchers concluded that new scientific techniques and technologies - such as advanced satellites, machine learning and artificial intelligence - would be required in order to fully understand the phenomenon.
The report also noted the negative stigma associated with the reporting of unidentified flying objects, but also suggested that NASA's involvement should help to combat that particular issue.
NASA Administrator Bill Nelson stated that they wanted to shift the conversation on UAPs "from sensationalism to science".
"NASA searches for the unknown in space. It's in our DNA," he said.
"The top takeaway from the study is that there is a lot more to learn. The NASA study did not find any evidence that UAP have an extraterrestrial origin, but we don't know what these UAP are."
The full media event discussing the findings can be viewed below.
The reality of dear old NASA and their style of "investigation".......

True believers will never be satisfied. Even if the truth came up and sat right on their faces they would deny it. They will cherry pick items from scientists that propose or theorize items that align with their beliefs. Then will categorically ignore or try to deny what other and usually more credible scientists provide to the contrary. Funny, but sad.
Surely, and those things of course have lead to and do lead to "sightings" or claims. To your point, I fondly recall, driving north on M-53 in Sterling Heights, Michigan in an afternoon of 2004 or so when a B-2 came in very low, and very quietly, over the freeway area presumably en route to touching down at Selfridge AFB. Working in the defense sector, and being a fan generally, my reaction was "awesome!" The slamming of brakes and dangerously evasive maneuvers on the highway revealed that others were not so familiar with the aircraft, which looked just huge and ominous. It was flying,... [More]
Interesting points Cho, thanks for your insight. I have also been in the defense sector for over 25 years (military police and intelligence). The claims of some can only be taken at face value as just hat, stories. The problem with many of them is corroborating evidence that can be verified. In way to many instances there are these incredible claims but nothing at all to validate it beyond the statements. The problem with the "phenomenon" is that people are alleging these wild speeds and capabilities with nothing presented to corroborate it. That is problematic especially reports coming fr... [More]
I didn't mean to imply anything was surreptitious, and I could have used a better word than "leaked." Perhaps just "transferred." More data on the subject would be lovely, though considering the national security implications of the phenomena I doubt that what has been disclosed, or even recognized, is comprehensive. We have a situation, unfortunately, where the available data (to, literally and figuratively, ground observers) is limited, there are relatively few opportunities to acquire more data, official treatment is disingenuous if not dis-informative, and opportunists pollute the disc...

In many of the more anomalous or unidentified cases, i think we are seeing unidentified natural phenomenon. That's just my opinion though. I certainly don't support that every single sighting is a drone or unknown piece of technology.
