The director of NASA, Bill Nelson, has confirmed this Thursday that the American agency has appointed a “committee of very distinguished scientists” to prepare a report on extraterrestrial life “in the face of all suspicions”.
In a press conference held in Argentina, after a meeting with President Alberto Fernández, Nelson explained that the deadline for disseminating responses is around one month: “This committee is deliberating and will release its report publicly next month.
“In the meantime, I can tell you that they are going to use our equipment in space to try to identify these phenomena,” Nelson said, in response to the alien controversy surrounding the United States after former officer Grusch told Capitol Hill that the Pentagon has been aware of the extraterrestrial presence for years.
NASA and the Casa Rosada have signed the union of the Latin American country to the Artemisa Agreements, which seek to establish an area of international collaboration in the space framework. With the accession of Argentina, there are already 28 countries attached to the agreements.
Argentina adhered to the Artemisa Agreements, signed between @NASA and @CONAE_Oficial, for international cooperation in civil exploration and peaceful use of the Moon, Mars and astronomical objects.
