Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena Independent Study Report
This media briefing is a discussion about the report published by the unidentified anomalous phenomena independent study team we commissioned in 2022.
The team’s report aims to inform us on what possible data could be collected in the future to shed light on the nature and origin of UAPs. Briefing participants include:
· NASA Administrator Bill Nelson
· Nicola Fox, associate administrator, Science Mission Directorate, NASA Headquarters in Washington
· Dan Evans, assistant deputy associate administrator for research, NASA’s Science Mission Directorate
· David Spergel, president, Simons Foundation and chair of NASA’s UAP independent study team
The UAP independent study team is a council of 16 community experts across diverse areas on matters relevant to potential methods of study for UAP.
We commissioned the nine-month study to examine UAP from a scientific perspective and create a roadmap for how to use data and the tools of science to move our understanding of UAP forward. Right now, the limited high-quality observations of UAP make it impossible to draw scientific conclusions from the data about the nature of such events.

TIMELAPSE OF THE FUTURE: A Journey to the End of Time (4K)
This experience takes us on a journey to the end of time, trillions of years into the future, to discover what the fate of our planet and our universe may ultimately be.
We start in 2019 and travel exponentially through time, witnessing the future of Earth, the death of the sun, the end of all stars, proton decay, zombie galaxies, possible future civilizations, exploding black holes, the effects of dark energy, alternate universes, the final fate of the cosmos - to name a few.
This is a picture of the future as painted by modern science - a picture that will surely evolve over time as we dig for more clues to how our story will unfold. Much of the science is very recent - and new puzzle pieces are still waiting to be found.
To me, this overhead view of time gives a profound perspective - that we are living inside the hot flash of the Big Bang, the perfect moment to soak in the sights and sounds of a universe in its glory days, before it all fades away. Although the end will eventually come, we have a practical infinity of time to play with if we play our cards right. The future may look bleak, but we have enormous potential as a species.
