A June 2021 government report acknowledges that the U.S. military frequently encounters technologically advanced unexplained objects in restricted airspace. Congressional testimony under oath in July 2023 gave further credence that non-human craft might be flying in our skies, and suggested that the U.S. government might even have crash materials and biological samples. What are these anomalous vehicles? Who is flying them? How do they operate? Where do they come from? Science journalist Robert Naeye will examine the evidence and discuss the latest scientific efforts to resolve this complex mystery. He will offer a balanced perspective on the UFO enigma while noting that concrete answers remain elusive. No registration required. 

Monday, October 14, 1 p.m. - 8:30 p.m. in the Small Meeting Room
