NASA’s UAP Study: No signs of extraterrestrial origins found in initial report

NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said that while UAPs do not have an extraterrestrial origin, their true nature remains mysterious

WASHINGTON – U.S. space agency NASA’s inaugural report on unidentified anomalous phenomena or UAP, commonly known as UFOs, reveals no evidence pointing to extraterrestrial sources. 

The independent study, commissioned in 2022, was intended to guide NASA and other government agencies in improving data collection and analysis related to these unexplained sightings.

Although no extraterrestrial findings were made, the study made it clear that there is much more to be discovered.

NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said that while UAPs do not have an extraterrestrial origin, their true nature remains mysterious.

Nelson announced that the agency intends to appoint a director for UAP research and to cooperate with other agencies in further investigations.

The report also highlights challenges in analyzing data, including problems such as inadequate sensor calibration and the lack of comprehensive measurements.

The report emphasized that by taking a rigorous scientific approach, NASA could reduce the long-standing skepticism and stigma associated with UFO studies.

The report recommended working with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and using artificial intelligence to sift through the vast amounts of data for true anomalies.

In addition, the report presented several images of alleged UAPs, some of which still have not been identified, such as a photo of a metallic “sphere-like” creature with no discernible propulsion.

U.S. government attention has recently shifted increasingly to UFOs or UAPs, largely due to revelations by former intelligence and military personnel about their unidentified sightings.
