Are We Alone? NASA Begins New UFO Research
According to a 2016 Ipsos Mori survey, nearly 60 percent of Americans believe intelligent life exists outside of Earth. And for decades, many have turned to the stars for answers to the age-old question: Are we alone?
Recent news from NASA indicates the answer may be closer than we think. In 2019, the agency announced the creation of a new group to explore the UFO phenomenon: the Anomalous Aerospace Phenomena Study, or AAPS. While the endeavor has been met with some skepticism, many argue that this could lead to major breakthroughs in understanding UFOs and extraterrestrial life in our galaxy.
In this article, we’ll take a look at the newest UFO research initiative from NASA and what it could mean for humanity.
What is the Anomalous Aerospace Phenomena Study (AAPS)?
The Anomalous Aerospace Phenomena Study, or AAPS, is a new group created by NASA to investigate UFO phenomena. According to the organization, the group will focus on “reports of unidentified aerial phenomena from all over the world, including sources from government agencies, academic and scientific organizations, and the public.”
The group will be led by Dr. Avi Loeb, a Harvard astrophysicist, who is passionate about furthering our knowledge of UFOs and extraterrestrial life.
What Does the AAPS Aim to Accomplish?
The AAPS has been created to address the decades-long challenge of understanding the phenomena that some researchers and laypeople refer to as UFOs. The goal is to compile and analyze data from various sources in order to provide objective, scientific answers as to what UFOs really are, where they come from, and how to further interact with them.
The team plans to use a variety of methods, such as collecting and analyzing eyewitness accounts, analyzing radar images and other telemetry data, and even conducting physical experiments.
What Could the Outcomes of the AAPS Be?
The results of the AAPS research could potentially provide humanity with its first tangible proof of extraterrestrial life in our galaxy. With its data-driven, scientific approach, the team could help confirm the existence of UFOs and potentially even contact intelligent life from beyond Earth’s atmosphere.
The AAPS could also offer tangible proof of other phenomena, such as time travel and interdimensional portals.
What Are the Next Steps for the AAPS?
Right now, the AAPS is in the process of gathering data from various sources. Once the data is collected, the team will begin the process of analyzing and interpreting that information.
The team plans to collaborate with scientists, researchers, and members of the public who have encountered unidentified flying objects. They also plan to use artificial intelligence to help them analyze the data, allowing them to quickly identify patterns and anomalies.
The NASA Anomalous Aerospace Phenomena Study has officially launched—an exciting new step forward in the search for answers to the age-old question of whether or not humanity is truly alone in the universe. NASA’s commitment to democracy and scientific rigor suggests that the team will be able to take a data-driven approach to empathically investigating UFOs, presenting us with tangible evidence of other living beings in our galaxy.
At this point, all we can do is wait and see what the AAPS discovers—and see if we can finally answer the most important question of all: are we alone?
