NASA team is set to study mysterious unidentified flying objects
The ultimate purpose of the group will be to recommend a roadmap for potential UAP data analysis.
NASA has put together an independent study team on unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP) that will begin its research on Monday, October 24, according to a statement by the Space Agency published on Friday. The assignment will run for nine months and will lay the groundwork for future study on the nature of UAPs.
Recommending a road map.
The ultimate purpose of the group will be to recommend a roadmap for potential UAP data analysis by the agency going forward and will focus solely on unclassified data. Once the research has been completed, a full report will be released to the public in mid-2023.

Scientists Transformed Pure Water Into a Metal, And There’s Footage
Pure water is an almost perfect insulator.
Yes, water found in nature conducts electricity – but that’s because of the impurities therein, which dissolve into free ions that allow an electric current to flow. Pure water only becomes “metallic” – electronically conductive – at extremely high pressures, beyond our current abilities to produce in a lab.
But, as researchers demonstrated for the first time back in 2021, it’s not only high pressures that can induce this metallicity in pure water.
Long-Term Deals Help Japan Secure Ample Gas Amid Global Shortfall
TOKYO—Japan imports nearly all of its natural gas and, despite the worst energy crisis in many years, it isn’t facing shortages or out-of-control prices.
Its secret is a reliance on long-term contracts for liquefied natural gas, a strategy that had been in decline until recently but now is rebounding in popularity. The world’s largest buyer of LNG is enjoying a moment of validation—at least for now.
