Today is the official start date for NASA’s independent study of UAP. The official announcement includes what we’ve heard previously about the parameters and processes for the data review. New is the list of participants aside from chair David Spergel. It’s an impressive catalogue of disciplines, employments, and honors, the roster including NASA, FAA, AIAA, astronaut, and SETI backgrounds, and emphasizing data utilization. See the UAP FAQs linked at the announcement’s end for more details. John Greenewald’s NASA Announces Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Study Team Members carries the basic NASA text, but adds photos of the individuals involved. It will be interesting to see how the ufological and mainstream communities analyze the roster. An emphasis on a “lack of evidence” for extraterrestrial UAP origins in the announcement is echoed in online news sources to date. (WM)
