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.
I HAVE read the full report. This is rich coming from someone who openly tells me that they have not: Maybe stop being so defensive when you're not being attacked. I'm asking your opinion as a member of UM... So your choice
Amazing. This just came out today We Just Found a Molecule on Another World...and Only Living Organisms Can Produce It - and it is called dimethyl sulfide, or DMS "NASA recently announced the detection of a potential signature of extraterrestrial life in the atmosphere of a planet located 120 light years away."
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, tho... [More]
