The aliens are made to beg: NASA rules out that 800 sightings are UFOs
We are still alone in the universe, at least for now.. After investigating 800 sightings, NASA has been able to confirm that none of them seem to come from another planet.. For the first time, a panel of independent scientists has been hired by the space agency to analyze what used to be called UFOs, and now UAPs (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) have become politically correct.. Everything that is necessary to free the group of 16 experts from a social stigma that has cost them ridicule on social networks for looking for Martians.
“We have not seen the evidence of something extraordinary, of something that does not come from human intelligence,” the president of the expert committee, David Spergel, deflated the balloon, as soon as he began his presentation.
Of the 800 phenomena investigated, the hired experts were able to explain almost everything from weather balloons, sensor problems, to researchers using a microwave in Australia, which was causing them to receive strange radio waves. at lunch time. However, several dozen sightings still do not know how to explain them, and claim that they lack data.. Even so, its final conclusions will be made public at the end of July.
The experts point out that almost everything analyzed lacks information, at least if we are thinking of attributing the phenomenon to a superior intelligence, something that they hope to solve with future sightings, thanks to the global presence of mobile phones, loaded with lots of data about each photo or video they record. “Data is what helps us understand the shape of an object or why it behaves in a certain way.. We have between 50 and 100 new reports every month,” said Sean Kirkpatrick, director of the Pentagon's Office of Anomaly Resolution, though cases have spiked in recent weeks over the Chinese weather balloon case.
Almost all of the recorded sightings were made from airplanes, although they stress that many of them are not reported out of the pilots' own free will to avoid being stigmatized.. “One of our goals is to remove the stigma,” Spergel said, “because high-quality data is needed to address important questions about UAPs.”. From the direction of NASA Scientific Missions, Nicky Fox, gave as an example that military aircraft, the protagonists of many of the sightings, are equipped to shoot with precision against a target, but not to start studying their physics, hence their propensity “to observe ordinary phenomena as inexplicable.”
Sean Kirkpatrick described the case of a foreign object that seemed to enter the water, and that ended up being a problem with the sensor that detected it. During the exhibition of the investigation committee, a video taken by a military plane in the west of the United States was also shown, with a series of points moving in the night sky, and although it could not intercept the object, in the end it turned out to be a plane commercial heading to a nearby airport.

Daniel Evans, Deputy Assistant Administrator for Research within NASA's Science Mission Directorate, defended that, despite the harassment suffered by the group, they were carrying out “rigorous, evidence-based scientific work, which is what allows us to separate the fact from fiction”.
“Are we alone in the universe? It is one of the oldest questions in the history of the universe and of humanity, which is why we cannot take it lightly, and we need scientists and multidisciplinary teams,” says Spergel.. He also recalled that, analyzing it, “is also something that affects security.”
The panel represents the first investigation of its kind ever conducted under the auspices of the US space agency on a subject that the government once entrusted to the exclusive and secret purview of military and national security officials.. Among those chosen by NASA were experts such as retired astronaut Scott Kelly, the first American to spend nearly a year in space.

The NASA panel members, who rely on unclassified data, have indicated that they are running into many of the obstacles that their Pentagon counterparts have detected.. “Collection efforts are not systematic and fragmented across multiple agencies, often using uncalibrated instruments for scientific data collection,” Spergel said.
But these parallel initiatives by NASA and the Pentagon, both with some semblance of public scrutiny, mark a turning point for the US government after decades of debunking UFO sightings dating back to the 1940s and have been associated with flying saucers and extraterrestrials.
The panel now has “several months of work ahead of it,” Evans said.. One of the doubts that arose from the exhibition is that if NASA eventually found alien life, it would make it public or not: “Our job is to observe the phenomena and if we discover that we are not alone in the universe, our obligation is to share it,” Spergel said. .
