There is an increased uptick in research focused on Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon, or UAP. In many ways, serious looks into UAP is the classic unveiling of a riddle wrapped up in an enigma.

The pace of government interest in UAP is palpable – underscored by the recent release by the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), a required-by-law annual report on UAP to Congress. That report flags the fact that UAP reporting is on the increase, thus allowing more opportunities to apply rigorous analysis and resolve events.

Also diving in to study UAP is a NASA blue ribbon study group. Their task is to focus on identifying available data, how best to collect future data, and how NASA can use that data to move the scientific understanding of UAPs forward.

Government attention to UAP is but one element in an ever-expanding network of private undertakings keen on scoping out sky strangeness.

Go to my new Scientific American story – “Scientists Try to Get Serious about Studying UFOs. Good Luck with That – New dedicated observatories and crowd sourced smartphone apps will study strange sightings in the sky. But questionable data quality and a lack of shared research standards remain key challenges” – at:
