NASA team investigating UFOs stresses need for high-quality data in first public meeting

NASA says it's received more than 800 reports of unidentified flying objects from around the world over the past 27 years, but only about 2-5% of them are actually mysteries. For the very first time, the space agency's team investigating UFOs held a public meeting, revealing the research it's doing to understand the unexplained objects. Nate Burleson reports.

It’s not the team studying them, it’s one of many teams studying them. There are multiple government agencies studying this not to mention private entities also studying this phenomenon.

Kudos for not using the X-Files music

[RunToLiveHD]

US Goverment knows exactly what they are lol

They're worried about the safety of our skies but not the safety of our streets with over 400 million guns on the streets. Yes, this is NASA, but it's a federal agency, and if the federal government is worried about our skies, they should also be worried about our streets, I could give a hoot about those so-called flying objects, first things first.l

What percentage of the total reports were sent to NASA, specifically? I don't know, I'm guessing, 2%?

[decafmocha]

This is way beyond their understanding

[vivavasquez]

of course they are out there, to think we are alone is ignorance, thanks Gale, but the other reporter laughing at her is closed minded and ignorant .

[bobbadham]

So many UFOs but only 3 clips of em bein absolutely played to death! Any1 else gettin a fishy woft?

[Wizardof]

If there IS something out there, they either gonna save it for the day Trumpf is arrested as a distraction and 'splain or if we run out of economic customers.

[keithgrillo]

I look forward to hear Gayle and Chuck’s banter.

[neinundnein]

They all repeat the same, and in a very superficial manner!

[poppacapps]

Be nice to aliens then they might be nice to us. Either way they could wipe us off the server.may as well be nice.

SpaceX took their [contracted-out] launch business so I can only conclude that NASA's new Charter to launch Muslims into Outreach was an utter failure.

[daynaal-shammary]

What is the truth.? Will we ever know for sure? What will we do if we ever encounter an actual UFO?

[UFOpilot.]

nasa needs to come clean about the "moon landing" LOL!!!. PEACE.

After studying all the materials about UFOs, it becomes quite obvious that since the late 40s of the twentieth century, a secret project for the development and production of aircraft has been developing in the USA, where the lifting force is created using high-frequency vibration. It all started with the vibrating umbrella-orthopter "Sky Car" by James Pitts, then the umbrella was closed with a dome and devices appeared according to the scheme of conventional electromagnetic vibrating speakers (membrane + inductance) - fragments of the membrane were found by a farmer in Roswell. Then they created piezoelectric motors or with small dischargers on the surface (they glowed all over the body due to air ionization), and now these are aircraft with plasma propulsion panels (because they are angular - that is, with flat surfaces). Thousands of discharge cells are packed tightly in the motor panels - they shoot plasma streams (railgun architecture - coaxial electrodes). The ionized air of the spark discharge is accelerated in the railgun cell by the Lorentz force to enormous speeds - a kind of ramjet engine is obtained. Just imagine! - tens of thousands of small ramjet engines assembled in a panel and firing plasma synchronously with a huge frequency (hundreds of kilohertz). Plasma jets form toroidal vortices of air - this air cushion creates lift and acceleration force. In my article "UFO — it's made in the USA" and in the books "UFO Hunting" and "UFO Elimination" all this is described in detail. The technology is quite mundane — it is known in the smallest details due to information leaks. For example, air ionization in coaxial railgun cells is created with the help of radiation (radioactive polonium is introduced into the metal). Devices of this type were used all 50-60-70-80 for secret missions (they took off, as a rule, from special submarines). With the fall of the USSR, their use by the United States was practically curtailed (in the novel "Little Green Men" by Christopher Buckley, a speechwriter for Bush Sr., a scene is described where the US president decides to curtail the project with "flying saucers"). The curtailment of the project can be recorded by the drop in magnesium consumption in the United States, since such fuel was used in fuel cells (magnesium tapes burned in forced galvanic batteries), this is 2007-2008. However, the development of the technology continued later in the Russian Federation and China (the technology was restored by reverse engineering methods for downed devices). Secrecy, however, remained, and there was no civilian use, because the technology is not suitable for this - harmful microwave from pulsed plasma engines (harm to pilots and the impact on electrical appliances inside and along the flight line). The payload is low (but one nuclear charge will pull.) There is no radio communication - unmanned vehicles can fly and maneuver only according to the program. Previously, there was a narrow application profile - rare spy missions (so that pilots do not receive a lot of radiation). Reconnaissance aircraft of this type were often observed at military bases, missile launch pads and airfields. They were even seen by peaceful explorers in the taiga, where glades were laid for seismic exploration - UFOs flew there to check whether military construction was underway (I myself heard stories about it))). I think this technology will be declassified soon, and cargo airships with flickering round plasma panels on the hull surface will appear in the Arctic sky.

When these "plasma jets", uh, "land", then what? (Ref. "CE-5; 240 Cases Of Human-Alien Contact" (2005) by Dr. Richard Haines, NASA Senior Scientist who ran their Ames Research Center, Longview CA, for many years.

"NASA team ... stresses ... need". Oh. You want funding.

[Nevenkavukmalivuk]

ne..nicesar ne bom rekla..velika nevarnost je to za zemljane..za celi svet..

CBS ignored that they also said there are metallic spheres all around the world flying around. Those at least are confirmed. Really CBS?
