If you see any aliens, NASA didn’t find them

A new director for UAP research at the NASA mission directorate: What does it take to get rid of people who want to lose their sense of physics?

” The language of scientists is data and one of our planet’s greatest mysteries,” said Nicola Fox, the associate administrator of NASA’s science mission directorate.

“We want to shift the conversation about UAPs from sensationalism to science,” says NASA administrator Bill Nelson, a former senator from Florida who once flew in the space shuttle Columbia.

While emphasizing that “the NASA independent study team did not find any evidence that UAP have an extraterrestrial origin,” Nelson noted that “we don’t know what these UAP are. The mission of NASA is to find out the little-known.

In the past, NASA has emphasized that the space agency “has not found any credible evidence of extraterrestrial life,” and it has no evidence that any UFO sightings are extraterrestrial.

The new report offers a roadmap for how NASA could contribute to this area of research, and officials embraced the idea, announcing that the agency had created a new position, a director for UAP research, to help guide and coordinate NASA’s efforts.

They declined to name the person appointed to that position, however. Dan Evans, an assistant deputy associate administrator for research at NASA’s science mission directorate said it was important to shield that person from being hassled by people with strong feelings about unexplained phenomena.

Some of the threats and the harassment towards some of ourPanelists have been beyond the pale, according to Evans. “That’s in part why we are not splashing the name of our new director out there.”

The Unexplained Sources of Airborne Phenomena: A report from the NASA Space Telescope and Information Technology Advisers

While unearthly-seeming sightings in the sky aren’t uncommon, the report says that the “vast majority” can be attributed to mundane airborne objects like airplanes, drones, and weather balloons.

Not all can be explained, and NASA advisers say that any changes in velocities and accelerations “are scientifically interesting.”

The Department of Defense now has a special office to look into mysterious sightings, and UFOs have gotten recent attention in Congress. Earlier this year, for example, a former government worker made headlines when he told lawmakers that officials had recovered alien “biologics” from crash sites, but a Pentagon spokesperson said such claims could not be substantiated.

The 16 researchers and other advisors who drafted recommendations to NASA weren’t asked to weigh in on the nature of previous unidentifiable observations, but rather to tell the agency what kind of data was currently available or could be collected for objective study.

The report claims that the Vera C. Rubin Observatory could look for objects beyond the Earth’s atmosphere. And programs to look for near-Earth objects, such as potentially dangerous asteroids, collect a lot of information about phenomena close to the Earth’s atmosphere.

NASA has no standard way to collect reports from civilians and could crowd source that data via mobile phones, according to the report. A private company recently launched a new app that lets people report incidents of unexplained flying objects and then look at the data with an array of computer programs.

The panel noted that, in order to gather data, NASA should look at the viability of crowdsourced observations from the public.

According to the advisors, NASA has a reputation of being open and transparent, and that it could help with the study of the unexplained phenomena, so that they are studied more robustly.
