Episode notes

The hosts summarize a report on unexplained aerial phenomena, revealing that out of 144 reports, only one was identified as a balloon. They discuss the need for further investigation, funding, and a systematic reporting system. The chapter also explores the historical context of government UFO reports and the military's interest in these phenomena.

UFOs are real. Straight up. There are unidentified objects flying around — but does that mean they’re aliens? Two experts in the research and culture of Unexplained Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) -- science journalist/author Sarah Scoles and Dr. Kate Dorsch, a scholar in the History and Sociology of Science -- joined Alie moments after Friday’s breaking news of the Pentagon’s UAP report. Strap in for “tic tacs,” space rocks, black triangles, fighter pilot sightings, Roswell, abduction trends, secret military missions, surprising conclusions, and the -ologists’ own wacky field experience researching UFOs … and the people obsessed with hunting town the truth. Which is out there.
