For the first time, the US space agency has shared video of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon.
NASA takes the unidentified flying object hypothesis very seriously. And to show it, the American space agency held a conference on May 29 dedicated to what are now called “unidentified flying object” (UFO). These are defined as sightings "that cannot be identified as scientifically known aircraft or natural phenomena", reports the BBC.
On the occasion of this unprecedented meeting - broadcast live on the Internet - the public body shared a video of a UFO. On this one, we can see a kind of spherical object filmed in the Middle East in 2022, the causes of which are still not known to this day.
Sixteen experts will work on the issue
The company launched work on these unidentified events, with the help of sixteen renowned experts. The objective is not to collect reports and explain them as can be done. No, specialists must actually think about avenues of research to seriously study these unexplained phenomena. Their work is based solely on public data, said Daniel Evans, in charge of coordinating the study for NASA.
“Existing data and witness accounts are insufficient to provide conclusive evidence on the nature and origin of each event,” shared David Spergel, the astrophysicist who chairs the work. "We need high quality data." A report should be made public during the summer, in particular to detail how to get there. "At present, we have no explicit data to suggest there is a connection between unidentified flying object and extraterrestrial life," added David Grinspoon, one of the panel members.
De-stigmatize the subject of UFOs
The agency also and above all wants to "remove the stigma" on the subject, assured David Spergel. "Harassment only compounds the stigma of the field, significantly hampering the scientific process and discouraging others from studying this important subject," said NASA chief scientist Nicola Fox.
