Establishment of a US science office for UFOs
Dr Avi Loeb, head of the Galileo Project, has announced that he will be leading the new White House initiative, the "UAP Science Advisory Council".
On 13 June, Dr. Loeb — Frank B. Baird, Jr. Professor of Science at Harvard’s Astronomy Department — announced the creation of this new scientific council on his Medium blog.
The three UAP file releases thus far attracted more than a billion views and a lot of chatter on social media. However, to paraphrase the wisdom of basketball players: “we must keep our eyes on the orbs, not the audience!”
What could be a better way of doing that than the establishment of a new “UAP Science Advisory Council” by the White House, AARO, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), the FBI, and all Intelligence Community members. This is not wishful thinking but a reality now.
Interestingly, not only is the White House mentioned, but also the AARO (the Department of War’s UFO office), the ODNI (which controls US intelligence agencies) and the FBI. Intriguingly, even though he had already mentioned the ODNI, he also emphasized ‘all intelligence community members’.
The other members of the council are :
Dr. Richard Cloete, PhD, computer science, Harvard
Dr. Regina Sarmiento, PhD in Astrophysics, data scientist, Harvard
Prof. Matthew Szydagis, PhD, Department of Physics, University at Albany
Dr. Devesh Nandal, wiss National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow at the Center for Astrophysics, Harvard
Dr. Omer Eldadi, PhD, Research Scientist in Psychology, Reichman University
Regarding the council’s activities, Dr. Loeb declared
All Council members look forward to assisting the U.S. government agencies in figuring out the nature of UAPs. Our time will not be wasted because at the very least — we will promote national security.
The best way to resolve the nature of UAPs is by getting higher-quality scientific data. Either we are dealing with a serious breach of national security or with the biggest scientific discovery in history. Identifying the unidentified deserves a high priority within the U.S. government and the scientific community.
Dr. Loeb is renowned for publicly defending the scientific investigation of UAPs on numerous occasions, and for leading his own UAP science programmes within the Galileo Project. Sentinel News has covered these programmes since their inception.
At the time of writing, the White House had not confirmed the establishment of the UAP Science Advisory Council.
