A panel of NASA UFO experts held its first public meeting yesterday, and there were plenty of (not so) spooky stories to go around. One astronaut/former fighter pilot talked about a colleague who was convinced they’d flown past a UFO, only to circle back and see it was a Bart Simpson balloon… And there was an Aussie story from the Parkes radio telescope about bursts of strange energy that went unexplained for over a decade before someone realised that the bursts occurred around lunchtime when the scientists microwaved their food. As it turns out, most UFO sightings are explainable, and only 2-5% are “possibly really anomalous”, according to Sean Kirkpatrick of the fun-sounding All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office. Still, NASA will release a report by the end of July with suggestions on how to make sure future objects can be quickly identified.
