NASA on UFOs: Not Nearly So Snarky Now. Here Are 3 Reasons Why

Please follow and like us:

NASA and the Pentagon are taking a more serious look into unidentified aerial phenomena (UPAs), which are more popularly known as UFOs. This new approach is rooted in three sources. First, there was the 1990s discovery of exoplanets orbiting distant stars. Second, the sheer number of exoplanets (100 billion or so) means we can start thinking about the probability of life being out there. Third, the realization that alien civilizations could be hostile has lead some to stop sniggering and start taking the study of alien technology seriously.

Key Takeaways:

The idea of extraterrestrials and UFOs has been gaining mainstream traction in recent years.
Findings like exoplanets and an Earth fungus that eats radiation are helping to support the idea of life among the stars.
While there is still no proof of alien life, it’s becoming more and more probable.

“As the James Webb Space Telescope, among others, sends back wondrous images of ever further reaches into the universe, thoughtful observers are helping refine our expectations of what to look for.”
