The 'GoFast' encounter, recorded by Navy pilots tracking a fast-moving object off the Atlantic coast in 2015, was assessed by NASA as most likely showing an ordinary object drifting with the wind. But newly released documents obtained by UFO researcher Grant Lavac through the Freedom of Information Act revealed that NASA's 2023 review relied entirely on publicly available footage and did not include interviews with the Navy aviators who witnessed the encounter. NASA Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) panelist Josh Semeter, director of Boston University's Center for Space Physics, acknowledged the limitation in an internal email written weeks before the agency released its findings. 'No, our panel did not speak with the aviators,' Semeter wrote. 'The analysis is based purely on information in the publicly released video.' The correspondence also showed the panel did not have access to raw sensor data, instead relying on details visible within the footage itself. They noted that although the raw data were unavailable, the video display contained information such as camera elevation angle and aircraft altitude that analysts used in their calculations. submitted by /u/Shiny-Tie-126 [link] [comments]
