NASA is launching a study of UFOs as part of a new push toward high-risk, high-impact science.
The space agency announced Thursday that it’s setting up an independent team to see how much information is publicly available on the matter and how much more is needed to understand the. The experts will also consider how best to use all this information in the future.
“We are not shying away from reputational risk,” Zurbuchen said during a National Academy of Sciences webcast. “Our strong belief is that the biggest challenge of these phenomena is that it's a data-poor field.”NASA considers this a first step in trying to explain mysterious sightings in the sky known as UAPs, orThe study will begin this fall and last nine months, costing no more than $100,000. It will be entirely open, with no classified military data used.
