Summary
The disclosure-foundation announced a review of nasa archival material for Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena information, aiming to advance public and scientific understanding of UAP. An executive committee — mike-gold, Executive Director jordan-flowers, astronomer beatriz-villarroel, theoretical physicist maaneli-derakhshani, astrophysicist and former UAP Task Force chief scientist travis-taylor, former DHS Under Secretary reggie-brothers, and biomedical researcher stephen-bruehl — will lead the effort. The initiative will apply AI and machine learning to NASA’s archives to flag anomalous imagery and data for further investigation, sharing findings with the public and government entities. This is a separate, foundation-led (non-governmental) track distinct from the government-tasked uap-science-advisory-council, though it overlaps in personnel and rationale (“anomalies drive scientific progress” — Gold).
Key Claims
- The disclosure-foundation will conduct an AI/ML-assisted review of NASA’s archives specifically for UAP-relevant imagery and data (Disclosure Foundation).
- The executive committee includes mike-gold (former NASA Associate Administrator), jordan-flowers (Disclosure Foundation Executive Director), beatriz-villarroel (astronomer), maaneli-derakhshani (theoretical physicist), travis-taylor (astrophysicist, former Chief Scientist of the UAP Task Force), reggie-brothers (former DHS Under Secretary for Science and Technology), and stephen-bruehl (biomedical researcher).
- Goal: uncover anomalies warranting further investigation and share findings publicly and with government entities (Mike Gold, Jordan Flowers).
