A series of new scientific papers detailing methods of detection and investigation into unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) has been published by a team of Harvard researchers.
The peer-reviewed papers were the first published offerings by the Galileo Project, an effort headed by Harvard Frank B. Baird Jr. Professor of Science Avi Loeb that is searching for evidence of extraterrestrial technologies.
The seven scientific papers were accepted for publication in an upcoming special issue of The Journal of Astronomical Instrumentation.
Ranging from the detection and tracking of UAP through computation and satellite imagery to plans involving the use of multimodal ground-based observatories to aid in UAP detection, the papers “encompass the wide range of subject areas involved in the work, from new detection methodologies to novel instrumentation development targeting Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP), to theoretical considerations concerning a mission to intercept interstellar objects (ISOs) of unknown origin,” according to a statement announcing the publications.
“I am deeply proud of our Galileo Project team and what we have accomplished so far,” Professor Loeb said in a statement.
“These publications mark the beginning of a new era in the investigation of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs), Interstellar Objects (ISOs) and Interstellar Meteors (IMs),” he added.
